Sunday Early Games - Open Thread
It's not a great slate of Sunday morning games, as we wait for the Green Bay Packers tonight. The Redskins at Bears I would guess is what most everyone is watching. The Eagles at Titans game looks pretty good. What are you watching?

Skins have been killing teams lately (not on the scoreboard, but actual players!)
And all this debate about hits is getting annoying…people are missing the point.

Watching the Bears here
As the alternative is that blockbuster Chiefs vs Jaguars game.
Watching Eagles-Titans
On a punt by Titans, a player stood right on the center’s head, no flag. It’s still bugging me.
The Dude abides
LOL OOOOOPS!
I hated that flag too. Not that it was called, but how they went about calling it.

+1
Call it when it happens, not during a TV timeout. That was the greatest crime in the entire sequence.
Well, the officials can't help when the TV timeouts happen
But at least throw a flag on the field while the play is still going on. The way that happened, we had no indication that anyone had done anything wrong until we came back to the game and the ref was explaining to us why we didn’t get the ball.

Wow, pick 6 for Bears
Deflected pass as McNabb was escaping a sack, easy 6
Total fail
It’s usually a good idea to dump the ball instead of taking a sack, but not if it goes for a pick-6.

It is true. I read an article the other day from Bedard which quoted an NFC executive as saying that Woodson can’t really cover anymore. Rather he just uses his great instincts and basically guesses. Hate to admit it but that seems true.

by I voted for Kodos on Oct 24, 2010 2:26 PM CDT up reply actions
They did.
They changed their name to the Redlegs.
From Wikipedia
Twice in the 1950s (the McCarthy era), the Reds, fearing that their traditional club nickname would associate them with the threat of Communism, officially changed the name of the team to the Cincinnati Redlegs.4 From 1956 to 1960, the club’s logo was altered to remove the term “REDS” from the inside of the “wishbone C” symbol. The “REDS” reappeared on the 1961 uniforms, but the point of the C was removed, leaving a smooth, non-wishbone curve. The traditional home-uniform logo was restored in 1967.

Bouman throws a pick at KC
KC about scores on the return, pretty much sealed the game, they’re up 35-20.
nope

I benched him due to his possible disciplinary action for Friday night
Looks like Jeff Fisher really went hard on his punishment.
Prediction
Bears recover a fumble as time runs out. Returner has clear path to end zone, but fumbles it out of bounds.

Oh boy, switched over to the Car-SF game
Go Panthers…
Lmao. Alex is hurt again! Boy McCarthy and Nolan sure as hell blew it on that one. Draft an outsider from Utah instead of the hometown hero Rodgers. That will haunt that franchise forever…

Well
I give anyone a pass for misdrafting a first round QB because it’s so freaking easy to screw up.
Where I do not give them the pass is that Alex Smith has sucked forever and the 49ers have not done anything worthwhile to remedy the issue.
Well they did make him take a pay cut, but you’re absolutely right, that does nothing. They should have made a serious attempt at McNabb. The story has been that they want Smith to do well because they have paid him so much. Well the Raiders paid a ton to Russell and even Davis realized it was time to move on. The Yorks r a joke. That team has sucked since DeBartello was forced out. They just suck! Singletarry is a complete joke!!!

Bet Singletary drops his pants after this game
Good for the Panthers. I think Fox is a good coach and his been given some crappy teams to win with (most notably a declining Jake Delhomme who was faltering for years). Lived in NC for 4 years, they’re an adopted team of mine.
Singleltery (sp) has lost all credibility in my book. He talks a good game, but NEVER delivers! My God, fire him and get rid of Smith!!! What do I care though, I hate the 49ers. So it’s in my interest that the status quo continues. Pathetic, leaderless franchise!
