around the nfl week 15
 

so it looks like they will be playing the vikings bears game on a frozen sheet of ice, there will be over 10,000 fewer seats that the metrodome, and oh yeah no booze in the game or even allowed in the parking lot. and one more thing the seating is first come first served, that just sounds like hell.

and the chargers put the beat down on san fran last night

Re: around the nfl week 15
 

Should be interesting. I'll def. be watching the game on Monday night just to see what it looks like. If the Vikes start Joe Webb I'd put money on the Bears to win lol. I also want to see what it's going to be like playing on that field. Maybe this will be the push the Vikings need to get a new stadium built.

Interesting about the Minny game.
The Colts have offered their dome for the game but the NFL is determined to do it at the U of M field. Joy.....rock hard field in 14 degree weather.

So, they toss out fine after fine for dangerous looking hits, but sure as hell doesn't mind frostbite and the like for its players. Way to ****ing go, Goodell.

Is it really that suprising? The NFL has a lot of problems, inconsistency with flags/fines/suspensions for one, and it has made plenty of stupid decisions over the years. The decision came down to play in Minny for the fans, or play in Indy for the players. No suprise they picked the fans, they don't care about the players if your name isn't Manning or Brady.

If the NFL worried about frostbite they would have to move games from Green Bay, Chicago, Cleveland, Buffalo and Foxboro every year... Maybe even from Cincy, Pittsburgh, Philly and NYC once in a while.

That's why they are not worried about frostbite.

Re: around the nfl week 15
 

The NFL needs more snow games. Cut the roof off the Metrodome and tell the fans to dress warmly.

Re: around the nfl week 15
 

They've played games in worse conditions that 14 degrees.

Frostbite? Really

Crazy ending to Sheagles vs. Giants. DeSean Jackson bobbles the punt and they STILL WIN.

TEBOW GOES 40 yARDS FOR THE TD!

Re: around the nfl week 15
 

I dont care the the Eagles won.... but I seriously cannot wait until someone smacks Desean Jackson back into another world. I cannot stand the stupid showboating that idiot does. He looks like a complete jackass.

I do agree with that, The guy is a great player but don't have to show up anyone.

Same here. I hate that Landry does it and I hate that Desean does it. What a little prick.

I dont think LL does it to the same extent (probaboly due to lack of opprotunity), but I agree 100%.....I hate seeing our guys do it, and I cannot stand watching Jackson do it... I miss a guy like Sean Taylor who just did it and would be pumped up but wouldnt be doing any of that crap...

I have no problem with guys showing emotion on the field, but I cannot stand when guys straight up showboat.

Re: around the nfl week 15
 

Tebow another TD this time a pass to Lloyd, and a great catch

I wish Jackson played for us...guy is a beast. Eagles have the 2 top playmakers in the entire league...

And Maclin also! 10 Tds

CJ28 is top 3

Re: around the nfl week 15
 

Denver wont keep Orton, especially after Tebow gets all the media hype after this game

Run DMC should be considered as an MVP candidate

JC has 2 Ints

Football celebrations are among the most awkward and disjointed celebrations in all of sports. Soccer and hockey players do much better jobs with what I would like to call natural celebrations, which is basically players expressing genuine emotion and joy. In football I frequently see guys who score touchdowns ignoring their teammates so they can perform some stupid choreographed dance.

Reggie Bush is probably the worst offender among many in the league today.
[YT]eZIDa7p7Umw[/YT]
The last "Touchdown Dance" I saw that made any sense was Brandon Banks doing the John Wall when he scored against the Bills during the preseason. I think if anything else the thing that annoys me the most is seeing guys ignoring their teammates so they can have a "me me me" moment.

Personally though I don't mind Landry celebrating the way he does because it actually seems like genuine excitement on his part.

Re: around the nfl week 15
 

Yeah, I mean honestly though, I can't think of another guy in the league that showboats to show up his opponents the way Desean Jackson does. I dont mind guys dancing, I dont mind guys celebrating at all... Its an emotional game...but the way Jackson does is just disrespectful to his opponents and one of these days someone is gonna smack him right in the mouth and he'll deserve it.

Re: around the nfl week 15
 

Not to change the subject here but does anybody else take back what they might have thought of Coach Andy Reid?? At this point the eagles are guaranteed the playoffs, Vick is playing the best he's ever played in his career, and the Eagles are gonna get their umpteenth NFC East Division Title...

The man deserves respect. He must know something about QB's that the average coach doesnt. Vick even 2 years ago showed flashes of his old self fresh out of prison, as the year went on, and Reid used him more and more. But I dont think anybody figured he wouuld be playing at an MVP level.

Re: around the nfl week 15
 

Reid has always been one of the better head coaches in the NFL in my book.

Apparently he needs a little more.......chin music?

Re: around the nfl week 15
 

Does anyone else think Ed Huchuli needs to stop talking so much... I appreciate that he tries to explain the play, but man sometimes he just goes into way to much detail just for hte sake of talking more.

Re: around the nfl week 15
 

Lol. Dan Connolly with a 71 yard return. I tell ya, fat boys these days are athletic as hell. "Slow" is an overstatement.

Aaron Hernandez just caught one too. Rex Grossman had himself a day. My Gators are shining left and right today!!

Honestly though, very nice game from Tebow today. Try telling that kid he can't do something. He's gonna be around for a while.

I'll be wearing my Tebow Broncos authentic the rest of the year.

Re: around the nfl week 15
 

^ you know I'm a big tebow fan also GM..

Hey Flynn looks good maybe he leads GB to the playoffs and we get Rodgers in the off season..... Ok I can dream

Re: around the nfl week 15
 

Dare I make the comparsion? Tebow can be like Michael Vick...the football player part of him.

Re: around the nfl week 15
 

Tebow reminds me of Steve Young in his early days
