We need a football game to talk about

[Ring 6]

I hate the bye. All of sudden everyone has time on their hands and nothing to talk about,so we end up with discussions criticizing the starting RB on the (so far) highest scoring offense in NFL history, that goes on to judge that we made a bad draft choice 1 1/2 yrs into his career. Then we have the obligatory posts where everyone just KNOWS what players wont be back next year.
You would never know the Patriots are 9-0, quite possibly the best offense and best team ever, and on a collision course with another SB Championship and and undefeated season from reading this board.

"It is, what it is."

I think the Pitt/Clev game is going to be a fun one to watch. And obviously the SF/Hawks game Monday night.

I've got one.

Nice little battle going on a Dolphin Stadium this Sunday. The Bills are trying to keep their playoff hopes alive and we would like nothing more then to ruin their party.

If Lemon continues to struggle, John Beck could make his NFL debut.

Oh poor Aqua. I give you an A for effort, but nobody cares.

I know you guys don't care, you don't care about anything but the Patriots. You're completely oblivious to the fact that there are 31 other teams.

Most fans pay attention to indivision games.

Newsflash......this just in..... you're on a Patriots fan website.

This may not be a great time for good talk on the board but I'm really happy with the bye week coming right now. We have some guys like Watson and Thomas who can use the rest and coming off an emotional win it's a great time to come back in two weeks instead of one. I know I was relieved Sunday night to not have to deal with a game this coming week; wrapping up the first "half" with Indy and getting some R&R before the stretch run is great with me.

I'll be watching the Charger game...they have a real good chance of really depleting the Indy roster by playing a hard hitting game. Merriman and Co. could really bring some pressure in the gaps. Castillo has been playing well and Clint Hart and Marlon McCree may bounce the concussed Dallas Clark like a pinball all day. I don't particularly like the SD corners, so if Manning has all day..well, it'll be a long day for the Bolts. I'm just hoping Merriman is super amped up and they stuff Addai. S.D. will definitely move the ball on Indy.

 

[PATRIOT64]

Since I don't think any team will catch us for the #1 seed, AFC games don't mean much to me when the Pats are off.

I am looking forward to the highest rated game this week which will be Dallas and the Giants which will get tons of attention,not as much as Pats Colts but just as important of a game,The winner of this game is front runner for the NFC title and a chance to play the Pats in the big game in February :rocker:

There is, thought there was only one, most fans pay attention to important intradivision games.. not indivision games, that would be two words.. not one.

well, considering that the Pats currently have a 5 game lead on the bills, 8 games on the jets, and a 9 game lead on the phins, we're not exactly worried about the what goes on in the division game. Although I would like to see Lynch run for 150+ on you guys, then again I'd actually like to see you guys win a game against the bills so they don't game a game on us.

 

[patsfaninpa]

Giants/Cowboys play Sunday. Possible Super Bowl opponent. I'll watch that. I am also interested in SD/Indy.. An Indy loss really gives us a big edge to the top seed in the AFC. If we lose a game, I honestly think people on this site are going to go crazy. A 15-1 season. And, not happy. Never thought I'd see the day. Jax/Tennessee. Both could make it as 5-6 seeds. That division has improved greatly from 2 years ago. Tennessee is going to be a good team. And, if Jacksonville had a qb they'd be good too.

Absolutely! I would like to see the Bolts D-line put a hurting on Manning and Addai all game.

ESPN will show the "lowlights" of the game.

The Dysphunkphins were eliminated from contention in the AFC East during week 9 (A record perhaps?). They're really not worth watching. I'm sure the league office was disappointed that they got the nod to play in London.

Are there 31 others? Do the Dolphins count? I mean they are an NFL team, but they are not NFL-caliber.

Unfortunately our D-line is not that consistent. Even more so Rivers is VERY inconsistent. If he has a phenomenal day we will prevail. Anything can happen...especially in our house.

Has Castillo been practicing?

 

[djmika760]

Has Castillo been practicing?

No, unfortunately he just had a surgery to repair a ligament in his ankle and is expected to miss at least 6 weeks. Shaun Phillips practiced after the groin pull but is questionable. Quentin Jammer did not practice and will probably not be seen on the field tomorrow due to his hammy. Against all odds...I hope we can pull something off...we'll see soon.

Castillo was injured last week, and is out for 6 weeks, apparently.

If anyone else in the division was worth giving a **** about, we would.
