Simon Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Daaaaaaamn. You know it's becoming a serious contest when you go 13-1 and drop in the standings. Y'all are hardfreakincore..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R. Rich Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 13-1? Yeah, in my dreams. I had a chance to get to 11-3 for the week going into the last 2 games. Thanks, AFC North. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted October 10, 2006 Author Share Posted October 10, 2006 Thanks, AFC North. Yeah I missed the Stiller game too. I didn't think the Chargers could put up enough points against Lebeau coming off a bye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDBillzFan Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 We both got VERY lucky with Indy in the Survivor Pool. 800536[/snapback] I have three slots in a Survivor Pool and this week had NE, NO and Indy. Between the Reggie Bush punt return and Indy's final drive, it was nip/tuck there for a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R.

SD was smart in that they attacked the Pittsburgh blitz to the outside w/ plenty of screen passes. Cowher got outcoached by Marty in that Pittsburgh did not adjust well to the Chargers' halftime adjustments. I'm not going to second guess a defensive mastermind like LeBeau, but I know I'd love to see more of Bryant McFadden (should eventually take Townsend's starting job) and rookie Anthony Smith (he was very impressive in camp/preseason, but I haven't seen much since) out there.

Just Jack Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Even in previous years my 11-3 pick for the week would have been on Page 1, this week, all the way back on Page 3. Are games just that much easier to pick the winner this year? Or has everyone gotten smarter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R. Rich Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 We both got VERY lucky with Indy in the Survivor Pool. 800536[/snapback] I know. Damn, if only I had taken Jacksonville. That would've given me back to back 41-0 wins and put me about 25 points in the overall lead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bright side is that at least I won't have to hear about the Bills whupping this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how long it took them to set up TradeRoethlisberger.com; maybe just a bit longer than FireCowher.com last year. Troy Polamalu doesn't seem to be having a big play season, so far. Beats me why. 800621[/snapback] I think the shoulder was the issue @ first, but he seems healthy now. He's back to flying all over the field.....only now, he's overpursuing plays and getting way out of position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps he's suffering the same malady as last year's B'gal Odell Thurmann - the league figured out the fact that he had good talent, but he became a hot dog in his own mind, so they eventually knew how to capitiaize on his "yahoo-ness" to slip good gains past him. Cowher et al should have a heart-to-heart if that's the case. Even the big names need a reality check from time to time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
