Around SBN: Bob Sapp Denies Throwing Fights

Sunday Afternoon Football- Open Thread

Like most of the nation, but not those in the Indy-Chicago region, I've got Titans-Packers. My B game is Texans-Vikings. With the Colts likely fighting for a wildcard I'll be rooting for the NFC in inter-confernece play, and a Packers win could crack open the door to the AFC South title again. Go Pack.

Giants-Cowboys is nearly everyone's late game.

I dont understand why Mannings ints. are up

Hes no longer injured, every WR/TE is health except Hall, and O line is steppin up. I just don’t get it. I did last year when all the WR’s were out, but not this year. I understand it takes time to get back into a rithum. I’m hoping everything goes great tonight.

most have been tipped

on passes he forced into tight coverage, was a little bit off or the receiver just blew it.

i think

alot of it stems from the lack of run game we have. other teams D aren’t scared to stack the line and when we cant get the yards we have to force throws and thats when things go bad!

pre-game

I was just watching NBC pre-game coverage. Is there a bigger idiot on the planet than Keith Olbermann? Maybe Kornheiser, but it’s quite possibly a toss-up.

by Ayrshire on Nov 2, 2008 7:28 PM EST reply actions  

Cris Collinsworth

Is right there with him.

That NBC pregame show is pretty much completely worthless minus Costas. And Dan Patrick is ok. But Olbermann and Collinsworth are worthless.

Solid week of football early

Early games were pretty entertaining all around. The late games were snoozers, Miami/Denver had it’s moments…

My laptop is broken, so I won’t be able to join the game thread throughout, which is disappointing. Although I might sneak in at halftime, go Colts!

I’d think we could stop Faulk and Ben Jarvis Green Ellis Smith Anderson Jones. If we can, the pass rush SHOULD bail out the secondary.
