My mistake. I turned RT's post around and forgot that if you don't have a winning record, it doesn't necessarily mean you have a losing record. Doh

Anyhow. Cowboys. What a scrap that Division is going to be. Who'd have thought the Giants would be 2 wins off 1st place after starting 0-6 and you just know they're going to go on a run.

8-8 record to win the division ? Surely not lol

wasn't there a year not so long ago the NFC West was won with 7-9?
 

Nfl 2013

Yep, 2010 Seahawks topped NFC East with 7-9 2011 Broncos topped AFC West with 8-8

Both teams went on to win the 1st play-off match before bowing out at the next stage

Especially as they seem to have some sort of running game now. 3 RB's with 100+ yard games this season is useful considering the injuries they've had this year. Doesn't seem to matter who Rodgers has to throw to, he'll find them

The Cowboys were going to have a winning record until about 30 seconds from the end last Sunday :(

12s from the end.:mad1::banghead:

ditto the last minute v Denver

Just watching Jets and Saints, just ocurred to me why are there no ( or hardly any) black QB's?
 

Nfl 2013

4 of the 12 QBs playing right now are black. That's about par for the league these days, and the percentage is increasing steadily.
 

Nfl 2013

There'll be another next year when Teddy Bridgwater enters the league as well.
 

Nfl 2013

Lol I think they rushed so much I barely got a look at their qb.

Also I didn't realise there were four actually.

Terrelle Prior from the Raiders can be added to the list too
 

Nfl 2013

EJ Manuel, Geno Smith, Terrelle Pryor, Cam Newton, Michael Vick, RG3
 

Nfl 2013

Russell Wilson with his backup in Seattle - Tavaris Jackson
Jason Campbell
Seneca Wallace backup at the Pack

Apparently the first week of September, 9 starting QBs were black

Looking forward to tonights game as the Pats clicked into gear last week but this week face a very tough Panthers D

Last night's late game was a cracking hard game with the Broncos joining the Chiefs on 9-1. Chiefs managed to hold the Broncos to their lowest score this season. However, the Broncos D stepped up and the Chiefs lack of firepower was once again evident. No matter how tough their D is, they need to be able to put points on the board in the big matches and last night, despite holding Broncos to their lowest score, they would have needed to get their 2nd highest score of the season to win (31 being their highest !!!). Next up for the Broncos, away to the Pats and then the rematch with the Chiefs at Arrowhead. Two must see games.

So where are we with Week 11 almost over.

in the AFC, Pats, Bungles and Colts seem to have their post-season spots wrapped up as much to do with their division rivals being poor as them being especially goodalthough in fairness to the Pats, their injury list is clearing up and they will be a big threat. AFC West is still the cliff-hanger although Broncos obvious favourites. Which means the Chiefs/Broncos will be #5 seeds and then it's up for grabs for the last play-off spot with poor sides. the Fins & Jets leading the race at 5-5 with the poor or poorer Bills, Steelers, Ravens, Browns, Titans, Raiders & Chargers all one game behind.

in the NFC, Seahawks are the only team so far you would say have their division in the bag. Big game for the Panthers tonight and if they fail, you've got to say Saints should be good for the South. As for the East and North, I haven't a clue. In the North, the Lions slipped up last night but with the Pack and the Bears both having QB problems. who knows what's going to happen. Pack really need Rodgers back asap otherwise I think they're going to blow it. The East, Eagles in the driving seat now but wouldn't trust any team in that division. Having said that, on their day, any team in that division could beat anyone.. well, maybe

So as for predictions. I'd like to see the Saints win the NFC but I just feel Seahawks will be #1 seeds and home advantage might see them home. Heart obviously with the Broncos for the AFC but I have a horrible feeling that Brady and his recovering corps are going to sneak it. So, week 11 and i'm going for Seahawks v Pats Superbowl

New England v Denver

Just watching the re-run. New England have given up 3 fumbles, Denver are 24-0 up, and it's not half time yet. It's so one-sided they should just throw the towel in.

I watched it last night, so I know what's going to happen, but I still can't believe it. Maybe I fell asleep on the sofa and dreamed that New England came back and won it right at the end of overtime. In my dream Denver fumbled a punt, handing the game on a plate to the Pats. It seemed a pity to end such a great game that way. Well, almost.

At least it's the right result.
Never have liked the Broncos, going way back to the days of Elway and every TV commentators love-in with the guy.
 

Nfl 2013

You can't say bad things about John Elway. :eek: That's like saying you don't like kittens or Benedict Cumberbatch or walnut cake.
 

Nfl 2013

So pleased we beat the Broncos, never liked them... Always hated Manning.
 

Nfl 2013

Unfortunately Brady seems to have a hold over Manning. Still, important as it was, last weeks game was just a prelude to what will probably be the big one later, in Denver. Hopefully Manning will put Brady and Bellendichek in place then ;-)

This Alex Smith QB guy for the Chiefs is quality. He just runs and runs all day!
 

Nfl 2013

The Chiefs just aren't quite good enough. Smith wasn't helped last night by too many dropped catches but as a team, they don't put enough points on the board. Was nice to see Smith throw a few longer passes though which was the bain of the early fantasy football season as Bowe wasn't getting meaningful targets

Problem was that it seemed to be the longer catches that got dropped, some of which were inexcusable, yes Donnie Avery I mean you

Today's game should be a cracker. Never expected Saints to come back so strong after Bounty gate and the Seahawks have looked a real force
 

Nfl 2013

Puts the "Coldest you have ever been, watching the Bees?" thread in the shade :)
 

Nfl 2013

22 points in less than 2 mins :eek:

You could have bought total game points at 21 at one time
 

Nfl 2013

Not a big NFL fan but that was great fun to watch.
 

Nfl 2013

Well strange that bloke not running in for a touchdown. Thats like having a penalty and deliberately passing it back insie your own half. #onlyinamerica

Didn't see the play in question but something like that has happened before. It is a clock management thing and I've seen happen in the last two minutes or so of the game. If the player scores the clock stops, if he falls down,kneels down on the one foot line they will probably still score but will leave less time for the opposition to score

The Eagles are on fire. 5 wins in a row. Foles at QB is amazing. Would not want the 49ers to be facing them in the play-offs as they are currently scheduled to meet them.

They have to get past the Cowboys first:pop: On second thoughts Eagles v 9ers it is
 

Nfl 2013

Foles has been lucky that his first interception was only yesterday. A few of his TD passes have bounced off the hands of defenders into the hands of his receivers and continued luck isn't something you can rely on especially when you are looking at playoff standard defences. Either he'll need to improve his judgement or it will be one and done if they make the playoffs. As for the Cowboys, if they don't make the playoffs it won't be because of a Romo choke but a putrid defence.
