NFL Week 6 Picks

[Tyche]

Dallas sent the JV defense out in the second half. They played well in the first half, nfc what happened in the 2nd half. 2 More tests for NE. Indi, and Miami (lol). I think it's some kind of curse against undefeated teams that play miami. They just don't wanna let another team go undefeated.

Edit: Dallas did exact opposite of what I said I thought needed to happen for them to win. Win the ToP (and they got killed) and run the ball effectively (15 total rushes).

[Anza]

Dallas did so well rushing the ball, they just stopped doing it though. Pretty much every time they ran the ball they got 6-20 yards, yet they decided to throw passes and many of them were incomplete. They had so many 3 and out possessions it was ridiculous just because they insisted on trying to pass into double coverage and getting nothing in return.

They had a 72 yard return and all they could make of it was a field goal because they wouldn't run. Most people try running on first down but they didn't they threw an incomplete pass then ran it on second down for 7/8 yards and threw another incomplete pass on 3rd down. Nothing angers me more then poor play calling and watching your team lose because of it.

Also those refs sucked, the cowboys definatly deserved some of those penalties but several of them were bullshit to. I didn't mind them not calling the push out on TO because they scored the next play anyways, but that was enough for me to see they weren't doing there job.

[Kailee]

Also those refs sucked

What else is new? It's been happening all season long, Cowboys had lots of chances to gain momentum/hopefully score, but the penalties killed us. Romo knew the refs were obviously one sided too. I'm actually happy the Cowboys lost, it gives us things to get better at the next time we play the Pats/playoffs. The Patriots were the better team, Romo bounced back pretty well. I'd say though, when the Cowboys get Tank Johnson/Anthony Henry/Terry Glenn/Newman @ 100% back from injuries/suspension, we'd be a lot better than we were today.

EDIT: I also called the Devin Hester 81 yd TD catch.

[Akiyama]

Stover ftw. He gave me 18, Baltimore gave me 24, Brady gave me 52, TJ/Edge performed and gave me 10-14 points.. Eric Wright gave me 13, Zach Thomas 10.50.. 188 points total. I'm satisfied.

[Plow]

I thought the Cowboys were going to win, then I heard Henry was out and figured they were screwed. Still should have been a better game.


And who was it that was talking about trading peterson in a keeper league? Dude is the #1 fantasy pick for the next several years hands down if he doesn't get hurt, especially if Jackson develops well.

[Anyway]

OH HI IM REGGIE BUSH. IM THE WORKHORSE FOR 90 YARDS THEN I DONT GET THE TD.

[Norelco]

So what was that argument about in the week 5 picks thread about NE not going to overpower the Cowboys? Looks like NE is going to win this one easily so far.

I'm not a Pats fan, trust me, but I knew they'd expose the Cowboys after 60 minutes. Sucks because I had Jason Witten as me TE for FF...was hoping he'd get a TD or two.

[Daahan]

wow the Saints are raping the Seahawks.

[Byrd]

I'm really not sure how Mike Holmgren was so good in Green Bay. I haven't seen him make a solid coaching decision since the NFC Championship game in 2005. His clock management skills are awful, he doesn't seem to prepare for games very well, his play calling is predictible, his defense always seems to play in Prevent mode...

The guy deserves some latitude since he did take the Seahawks to a Super Bowl, but it's getting harder and harder to justify his high school level mistakes with what he did two years ago.

[tyven]

brett favre and reggie white!

[Byrd]

4th & 9 from the opponents 15 yard line, down by 11 with 1:30 to go? What do you do?

You kick the fucking field goal. Then onside kick. Go for it on 4th & 9, miss, the game is over. You have to onside kick regardless.

HOW THE FUCK DOES HOLMGREN NOT KNOW THIS? Every time there's a late game situation, he fucks up the play calling and the clock management, and gets the announcers saying "I don't know what he's doing." EVERY TIME. He did it in the Super Bowl; he did it in the NFC playoffs last year against Chicago. Why the hell does he still have a job, he can't coach in crunch time? Make him an OC and get someone behind the head coaches' mike with some common sense.

Best Day Ever

5-0 in my Fantasy Leagues

Vikings win big division game (All Day Adrian)

Philly wins the most boring game ever

Mmm.

I went ape-shit in one of my leagues. Housh, Edwards, Stallworth (Holt on the bench) as my receivers.

[archibaldcrane]

After the disappointment of last week, where Green Bay lost a game they should've won, and Dallas won a game they really, REALLY should've lost, I'm glad to see the Pack is back on top, tied for the NFC lead, and 1.5 games ahead in their division.

Jesus it was nerve-wrecking watching GB cling to a 3 point lead for a quarter and a half with a sputtering offense against a solid 'Skins team. It's so nice to have a defense again. Watching Adrian Peterson and Devin Hester go absolutely apeshit on each other's teams was fun though.

[Tyr]

Green Bay defense swarms with the best of them. 11 green jerseys within a 5-yard radius of the ball at all times lol. Thank God MIN got the win--needed that big division win to try and contend with the Packers.

Who does the MVP of the day go to? I say Peterson.

[archibaldcrane]

Who does the MVP of the day go to? I say Peterson.

No doubt. He's a beast and won that game by himself.

MVP of the day? How about rookie of the year?

[Daahan]

Guess no one really cared about Monday Night Football, but I think the Giants are going to be a pretty serious force in the NFC this season (not based on their games with the Falcons but with their overall performance thus far in the season).

[Deejay]

The Giants will go as far as the defense allows us. Eli and Plax can get it done, it's just a question of what week our defensive line will show up.

We're just the NFC's version of the Bengals. A lot of offense, bipolar defense.

Except you aren't terrible this season.

Guys need to start the Week 7 Picks, I've got a pool list I need to submit and there is about 3 games I'm unsure of. Go Go Go.
