We may not "need" McCoy to win but if you're trying to say we can plug about anyone into his spot and get close to the same result you are delusional. What your stats don't have factored in is his receiving ability. What everyone else is able to do, how they face less pressure when he is out there. His experience, leadership. Place a "stat" on that. How about being a true home run threat...I don't have a "stat" handy...but I doubt we see Tolbert bounce to the outside and ripoff a 60 yard run. Just the ability to have that on the field is a game changer.

Well, he's an O'leary fan at least. But we'll known he supports the Fish ?

Did you know Nick O'Leary's grandfather was a golfer of some sort?

I'm confused. Which grumpy old man in the balcony are you again? I'm betting it's Waldorf.

Oh I do. KC has beat them once already and always plays em tough. Pittsburgh certainly can. Even the lowly Bills can...it's hard for a team to beat another team 3 times in one season. As much as people are ignoring the fact as well...Brady is 40. He didn't play a full season before the playoffs last year. This year he has. Past 3 weeks he's looked old and vulnerable. They may win it all...but they are beatable.

Well here is where it gets to be more complicated than stats will show. This team this year is not the most talented top to bottom. They win by playing as a team and excellent team chemistry. I don't know how McD as a coach can remove him from the team and not lose a large part of the locker room. I think making the playoffs kind of forces TTs way back on the team next season...at least to start out. I think we still draft a QB high. Wouldn't shock me to see TT and the rookie compete in TC and TT start the season as our starter. The only way I see that changing is if this week against the Jags TT has a Peterman-like collapse and we lose big.

Done. And fully support throwing a 3rd rounder, Tolbert and Rico at The Bengals and bringing Andy here. He deserves to be rescued.

I didn't realize how unliked Harbaugh is by that fan base.

If you recall, they weren't the only ones saying that before the season started. Coming off a Super Bowl win, adding Gilmore and new RBs a few in the media were convinced it was an unbeatable team. Thermos? No. But it is Blu Tooth compatible for some odd reason.

I will let next year play out. Reminder...predictions are fun but they play the games on the field for a reason.

Hauschka signing here has every bit as much to do with making it as Hyde, Poyer signings. After Carpenter it feels so good to have a kicker you can count on.

Guess it pays to deal with the Bills.

That face you make when you are removed from anything to do with football operations and the team makes the playoffs for the first time in 17 years.

I missed that we had called him up this week. To quote myself the first time he ripped through the line... "GO MURPHY, GO MURPHY...WHO THE @&£# IS MURPHY" I know who he is now...fresh legs at this point of the season are a wonderful thing.

This was me as well...just waiting..."Ravens still have time....3 time outside left...." Once that 4th down pass fell to the turf though...jumping happened...eyes did well up a bit...couldn't scream as the kids had just gone to bed...

They will be starting Joe Webb. He has started a playoff game before. The Spider Webb package is now fully pregnant. So sayeth the Don of Dunkirk.

Honestly their CBs don't scare me. They will likely be locked up with our Wrs. We don't really throw their way too much. Lots of passes to Clay, RBs mixed in with Tyrod scrambling, McCoy (or Murphy) running....and we can win. I think we match up better than most think.

But now they will never be able to find a QB to lead them to the playoffs...oh wait.

We will send them wings and Rico.

And then Incognito got ejected. Then he didn't. Then he did....then he laughed and then he didn't.

Obviously

Really is irrelevant now.

I thought Murphy looked good as well.

I'd go with Meatball. It was his TD that ended up being the difference maker in the game.

Big congrats to 95. His TD was what we needed to break the curse. If McCoy can't go next week...I say Murphy and Meatball split carries ??
