Its not understanding Larry Allen's awesomeness IMO. Larry Allen could block a front 7 by himself.

losing a guard should hurt pass protection which should increase the odds that jamarcus suffers an injury which ultimately would help the raiders

I thought about it and decided the Eagles had enough talent to beat the 49ers but that the Broncos would win a close game when Reid invariably ****ed up a late-game decision.

oh yeah, and checkdowns and quick 5 yard slants.

this mad me laugh, its so accurate that it hurts. and when he throws one beautiful deep ball the WR drops it

I'm not claiming there was a conspiracy or anything but I can't remember the last NFL game I saw where the officating errors were that one-sided. Maybe the game where the Colts beat the Bucs on a "leaping" call?

Obv didn't watch the Ravens game. Tom Brady almost pooped his skirt several times, causing the refs to throw flags against Ravens if they entered NE's backfield.

Driving home today, I heard Jon Beason on the radio basically say he plans on having a heart to heart with Julius Peppers in an attempt to make Peppers try since apparently making over $1 million a game isn't enough. The implication was that Beason and others saw what Allen did on Monday Night and see no reason why Peppers can't play with the same fire and effort.

He does not have enough pride to study his craft. He has a $100 million arm and a 25 cent work ethic, and benching him will not change his approach."

True but he's also been not trying at all.

Moral of the story is

Beason.

i think he gets a little too much heat for not trying. look at the other people on the panthers line. brayton was neot that good opposite peppers last year and w/the issues on the interior he practically has no help in the pass rush unless there is a blitz

SHame since if he even gave 50% effort he could potentially set individual record for most sacks in game LDO
