2011-12 NFL Season

[CK SatGuy]

Good News: Lions win today to become 7-3. Bad News: Packers win today and become 10-0, still undefeated. Will the Lions be the 1st team to beat the Packers this year? I say that it might be possible, but it sure as hell ain't gonna be a walk in the park. As noted in my sig, I think this Thanksgiving game will be the biggest one ever for the Lions. Hopefully they'll come out of it as the winners.

The Miami Dolphins are on a three game winning streak. This season is "Deja Vu all over again" with Matt Moore taking over for an injured Chad Henne. It reminds me of the season when Chad Henne took over for an injured Chad Pennington. I think the Thanksgiving Thursday game between the Dolphins & the Dallas Cowboys will be an interesting game to watch after all.

Definitely cannot have 3 TO's and expect to win ...
Also, it would help for them to not get in a 10+ point hole.

Have they EVER had a good 1st half this year ?

Man...I hope this Raider team gets healthy sooner rather than later. Campbell, McFadden, Ford, Hayward-Bey, Chris Johnson, Shaunessey... the injuries just keep stacking up...

LOL @ Philip Rivers

That loss in Chicago just sealed Norv Turner's fate...

Against the Chiefs, Broncos, and maybe the Bucs, yes. The rest of the games, no. I agree they still have to definitely step it up in the 1st half because they're not always gonna come back and win in the 2nd half.

I dont think the Chargers will ever win with Norv Turner and Phillip Rivers. Rivers throws an INT, same mistake he made last week when he threw an INT toward the end of the game. I think the Chargers time was a few years ago when they lost to the Pats in San Diego in the playoffs. If they won that game maybe they win the Super Bowl that year but who knows.

The Denver Broncos are now alone in 2nd place in the AFC West..

Next week the Broncos play San Diego in a must win game.

The Oakland Raiders secured there first place spot for another week.

Next week they take on the Chicago Bears who did a number on San Diego this week.


If the Broncos lose and the Raiders win it will all but lock the Raiders in as AFC west champion (as I dont think the Broncos can come back from 2 games back)

However if the Raiders lose and the Broncos win they are tied for first with Denver having the half game lead (with its best victory)

Going to be a very interesting week for the AFC West.

If the Raiders beat the Bears, it helps the Lions .... Go Raiders.

After that, the Steelers play the Raiders, Go Steelers !!!

Correction, Steelers Don't play Oakland like I thought.
Thats helpful to the Steelers fans !

Correction, they play the Lions, the team the Bears are battling for a WC spot.

If the Raiders beat the Bears and the Lions beat the Raiders, then it's a win-win for the Lions!

Next weeks Raiders/Bears game will be a house divided. My wife is a HUGE Bears/Cubs/Bulls fan, seeing she was raised in Chicago...and we will both be there!

The game will be huge and the Black Hole will be rockin'! Can only hope the Raiders will have a healthier starting line-up.

NBC Sunday Night Football is reporting that Jay Cutler has a broken thumb on his throwing hand & may need surgery.

I'll be honest Salsa. If Im you next week, I would be pretty calm. I say that because the AFC West, to me, is pretty weak, right now. That can change but who is on your heels. The Broncos with Tebow who has won his starts but doesnt throw? The Chargers? I think there done. And the Cheifs to me blow hot and cold and I dont think they beat the Pats tomorrow night.

The Raiders control their own fate. They did everything they could to hand the game over to the Vikes. Last weeks win in San Diego is as close to a complete game as they have come.

And one day, they won't have multiple starters missing.

Today, I was sssooo impressed with Jared Veldeer..a 2nd year player, did a job on Jared Allen, the NFL's sacks leader, was simply amazing. Allen going into this game averaged a sack a game and had one in 9 straight games...he was held to a giant goose egg!

 

[Mets82]

The Raiders have to play great against Chicago and not trying to give the game to the Vikings, like you said.

 

[Bodo Fenrirsson]

One good thing for the Raiders is that most likely,they'll be playing a Bears team without Jay Cutler starting,if what they reported on NBC Sunday Night Football is to be believed.

 

[yaz96]

Wow, is Aoumaugh overrated or what? He looks lost out there tonight.

 

[dfergie]

10 -10, Wow... with 3 int's Young still has them in it... (been watching Hell on Wheels)

 

[Bodo Fenrirsson]

I don't think VY has played a bad game. He's kept the Eagles in this game. I also believe he is more durable than Michael Vick.
