PromoTheRobot Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 Losing a 20-point lead in the 4th Quarter is bad...but so it getting shelled 48-3 by a $hitty Ravens team...on Monday night football! They keep dancing with Favre about whether or not he will retire. Memo to Brett...it's over. You are a first ballot HOF'er, but stop embarressing yourself and hang it up! I do have one question...have you ever heard a Packer fan go off on his team like we go off on the Bills? I never have. They must have the patience of saints up there.

PTR 537764[/snapback] Brett hasn't looked great at times this year but he's still a lot better than anyone I've ever seen in Buffalo, including #12. This year, he has no O-line, no D and a team that apparently that has mailed it in. If Brett was QB of Buffaro this year, they would be in contention for the division. That being said, if Brett really wants to help out the pack, he'll go to the GM and ask to be traded to a good team in need of a QB. They could use the extra pick or two.

30dive Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 Someone asked last week as to what other team we watch when not watching the Bills who do you watch? My response was The Green Bay Packers, they make me feel better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Favre has 24 INT this year. 24!!!! That's a lot of bad passes. The guy has got a great history, but he just doesn't have the skills or the players around him anymore. If he doesn't retire, it will just be more of the same next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDBillzFan Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 Talk about giving up. I was stunned to watch how poorly Green Bay was playing last night. Anyone who thinks Favre should still be around didn't see the multiple heave-hos into double coverage with no chance of doing anything but getting picked. And for what? So Tony Driver can jump up but not try? So when a guy does catch the ball, no one upfield blocks for him? I typically don't make Half-Game NFL bets, but the second half line between the Ravens and Pack last night was Pick 'em. PICK 'EM! Easiest money ever.

PICK 'EM! Easiest money ever. 537914[/snapback] True that. The guy I go through doesn't allow halfs, but Ravens -3.5 was a similar autolock. I have been employing a theory since about Week 9 that has worked out pretty well: When a bad AFC team is playing a bad NFC team, take the AFC. (Obviously Bills-Saints was the exception to the rule.) I have employed this strategy for good teams occasionally as well, like the Patriots (-6) over Tampa on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
