MNF Open Thread

by shake n bake on Nov 17, 2008 7:45 PM EST Comment 113 comments

Bill-Browns, who can tolerate the MNF crew long enough to find out which team's wildcard hopes are totally crushed?

PS: Mgrex03 you forgot one

If the MNF crew gets too intolerable there's always Indy Star Colts reporter Phil B's weekly chat at 8pm central to get your Colts fix. He's a great source of info (the only person who's been able to tell me anything about Lilja) and the point of the chat is to interact and answer fan questions.

Complete with the draft video. I knew they couldn’t resist.

Oh, and Trent Edwards is bad.

End of 1, 6-0 Browns

Quinn grade: C-. 1/8 will do that. 2 of those were flat drops by Edwards though. And they are winning, although that is all on the defense.

I assume on one of Edward’s picks

Don’t worry the guy that gave up the long TD to Eddie Royal has been matched up on him. The big play is coming

It would have been by more this week if Delhomme realized he was playing the Lions. Shaun Hill would have been the better play.

Interesting note from Phil B

before the game Marvin warmed up with Peyton and Reggie pre-game for the first time since his knee injury last year. Apparently before this week Marvin had been getting therapy on the knee instead of warming up with Peyton and Reggie.

Good evening all

Just joining in now after catching up via TiVo. Had a few too many laughs because the drinks should be flowing. And despite rooting for the Browns for WC, I do have a special place in my heart for Marshawn (GO BEARS!). Happy to see he scored on an awesome effort.

Have they made this observation?

Quinn is playing without sleeves, and no jacket on the sideline.

Edwards has the jacket on during Injury Timeouts, with sleeves on as well.

Just saying.

If you ask Brown fans

There biggest gripe is that they don’t get the ball to their playmakers enough. Those guys are Harrison and Cribbs.

I haven’t watched every game, but I’d have to agree. It’s a crime they dont touch the ball on offense combined more than 5 times a game.

We were closer to the end zone in both instances

The Bills’ safety had enough time to get over and tackle him before the end zone.

Thankfully, the Steelers and Texans had no such time.

from john clayton

sorry if this was already posted…

“Manning was able to distribute the ball to six different receivers, including Marvin Harrison. Harrison wasn’t great and still seems a step slow, but he caught nine passes for 77 yards and a touchdown. The Colts finish the season with a relatively easy schedule, and their offense is slowly getting on a roll.”

Agreed

Special teams have been solid for the most part. We could do more getting yards on returns, but coverage has been solid, and Hunter/Adam have both done their jobs for the most part.
