An injury that happened in the pocket too.

I guess he was playing too recklessly.

Yep. Perhaps Brady should stop running the read option so he doesn't get hurt.

I only watched til around the middle of the 3rd. Fletcher was all around the ball as usual. The One Man Gang got a lot of good pt at LB. Fletcher knocked the heck out of somebody but Collinsworth was flapping his pie hole and they didnt even replay it.

Pro bowl is a joke. Seriously there is no need for it anymore

If by noteworthy, you mean remained uninjured, then they all succeeded.

I didn't watch the whole game, but the 3 Skins players I did see were Fletch, Lorenzo, and Kerrigan. Fletcher was playing hard each time I saw him, Lorenzo the same. Kerrigan made a good play in the redzone to keep a TE from getting much yardage, but I also saw some plays where he seemed to be going easy.

Nothing stupendous from our guys, I would have loved to see Griffin play in it, He and RWilson together might have broken some pro-bowl records.

Luck had the most yardage of the AFC qb's, including one really nice deep pass. He also had a lost fumble, and a pass intercepted(not sure if it was his or his receivers fault though)

I Love This!

- Williams was Tasered in the back and cracked over the head with a champagne bottle during the melee yet still did not fall to the ground, sources say.

"It was like he was Jason on Friday the 13th -- man just wouldn't go down," once source said of the 6-foot-5, 318-pound Williams.:laughing2[/quote]


Wow. That's like a scene in King Kong when the police unload their guns on King Kong and all it does is get his attention and piss him off. Police thought, "what have we just done?"


Here's how I am picturing it:
Some midget cracked him with a bottle from behind and Trent probably just turned around and said "OK, you're gonna pay for that, little man."

I bet it was some Richard Sherman groupie.

Can Trent get a break?

About the only thing good that came from that game.[/quote]

I did like JJ Watt trying to line up at WR on the opening drive. Took him a while to find the LOS. Hilarious.

Then he was splattered in his own blood and asked the Commissioner if he saw his effort on camera.

How can you not love that guy?

I got bored with the game in the 2nd quarter and found something else to watch.

4th play but you're close.

If I'm right that's when they passed the rule about hitting a QB in the knees.

Interesting the Zo got as much play on defense as he did. I wonder if that was because the Packers coaching staff was impressed by him (and possibly wanting to evaluate him in person so they can sign him in the offseason) or because they were trying to protect the health of other guys.

A champagne bottle could have killed him. Nice that you're concerned.

They ran concussion tests on him afterward.


Did you see that dirtbag's criminal history? You're really taking his side over Trent's?

Not to beat the pro-Shanahallen drum too much but it's a sign that they are doing something right that each of their 3 first round picks were Pro Bowlers this year.

Trent took a bottle to the head and got tasered and still didn't go down, the guy is lucky Trent didn't break him in two.

If you are trying to say Brady is as reckless as RG3 your blind. You cant even compare the two styles of play. The difference is Brady came out of the game and stayed out after his injury until it healed. RG3 on the other hand... RG3 is reckless thats all there is to it.

Relax boss, just having some fun, and making the point that injuries can happen in or out of the pocket. You said Brady never had a serious injury.

Griffin is fearless (would be an awesome Green Lantern! :) ) not reckless - the two can look similar. As he learned through the season he made better choices, but an unlucky hit, and a playoff game on the line, left us where we are. If he heals, then he will know more about his body and the way the NFL level is played.

But I think the main point is any qb can suffer a year long injury, even qb's that stay in the pocket more than run. And I would say Brady's jamming his leg up in the air was far more reckless than Griffins running, he just didn't get caught that time.

That was a puss move indeed. Believe me, Im no Brady fan! Neither am I anti RG3. Im just not comfortable with RG3 style of play in the NFL. (For longevity reasons only)

I would like more than anything for RG3 to come back and play lights out while staying healthy. What Redskins fan wouldn't...

Personally, I think it would be a cool game if the players actually were motivated to play for real. And that would only happen if they had something on the line.

1) The winner of the game (NFC vs AFC) - would get $500,000 extra in cap money for each team in the conference.
2) Or whichever conference won -- each team in the conference would get one extra draft pick after all teams have drafted (ie. 8th round)
3) Or whichever conference won would host the SuperBowl (ie. give them some home field advantage). ie. San Diego = AFC, New Orleans == NFC)
etc..


These are just minor advantages, but perhaps just enough to give a little incentive to the teams/players.

what about if the winning conference gets 1 extra home game per team during the next season afc/nfc matchups. so if the nfc wins, for example we would have 3afc teams at home, and 1 away. if the nfc loses we would have 1 afc home game and 3 away.

or

the thanksgiving tradition gets changed and the winning conference hosts all 3 games the next season. they could have probowl recognition that weekend with small presentation to the probowl players in each game that weekend, so that the Skins would recognize the Fletch et al whether we played thanksgiving or that Sunday.

That would probably interfere with the total number of home games, or it would force you to play the other schedule games away. No way are owners going to give up season ticket holder money.
