NFL Week 1: PUT IT ON THE BOARD!

See, now if I said that it woulda been "homer this" "homer that"

**Chun Liroy** · 2010-09-12 23:05

Note how Dez was the #2 in this game despite RW starting.

**Gadritan** · 2010-09-12 23:05

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying he sucks by any means. He's legit. It's still way too early to give him elite status is all I'm saying.

When the Giants were playing the pats in the superbowl, my greyhound was in my lap. She was a newborn. David Tyree made that absurd catch against his helmet and I jumped up, forgetting about the dog, and threw her across the room and almost into my TV.

@Moss: Yes, that looked like some Madden shit with frozen LBs in some shitty zone. Put Hall on Austin when he lines up outside, and Buc/Stonehands on him when he's inside. Kick an outside LB on him as well when you can. I'm sick of seeing the Boys' march down the field on the back of Austin. Only reason the Boys' lost tonight was their stupid pre-halftime play and their idiotic penalties, loathe as I am to admit it.

Skins, God love em, have a lot of work to do, especially on the offense.

due to a rare skin condition, miles austin appears as a black hole on official game footage coaches use in film study

when the ball is thrown his way, the ball and austin disappear; they end up in an alternate universe where he fights giant iguanas all day

this is why no one gameplans for him, everyone enjoys a good iguana fight, as long as michael vick is not allowed to wager on the outcome

I guess double teams are the only way to game plan for a receiver.

I was just trollin'. I've been an Austin dickrider since I saw him in training camp over the summer of 08.

You're wrong mertron, he uses his teeth to shine the stadium lights into the cameras.

Win

Now I wonder if I'm sober enough to make the 45 minute drive home.

**Gadritan** · 2010-09-12 23:12

Herrrrp. Derrrrp. Yes, it's obviously the only way!

Edit: In other words, you're totally missing the point here.

Well yes there are very few "elite status" receivers. So he's not Andre Johnson, LFitz or Randy Moss. But it's not like teams' secondaries were planning on stopping Stonehands in the second half of last season.

well thats just not true.

Jason. Witten.

**Talus** · 2010-09-12 23:15

I don't think the Cowboys or Redskins deserved to win tonight but somebody had to (I'm a Skins fan). They really should have run out the clock at the end of the first half, what's better being down 3-0, or trying a low percentage risky play when you're 64 yards to the endzone? Instead you're down 10-0, good call, Garrett.

I wish Carlos Rogers could catch a fucking INT. That would have been game. I can't fault Landry for not making the pick when Dez Bryant didn't realize he was the hot route, since his momentum was going the other way. The last play, when Romo hit Williams, I just said "Bullshit," since I was wondering how Orakpo didn't get to him.. oh... he was held by 71. Nice.

[Edit: I can't wait to see the team when the offense finally gets on track. I was thinking 8-8 this year, I can see that happening now.]

How did I miss this?

Not to be outdone, Irvin continued the dialogue Sunday morning on the NFL Network.

"My criticisms shouldn't inspire him," said Irvin. "Looking at his hands with no rings should inspire him."

So you're saying defensive coordinators were so intent on shutting down Witten, they let Austin rack up yards and TDs all last season?
