I bet it will be...New England/Philly or Pittsburgh/Philly or San Diego/Philly or Indianpolis/Philly or NY Jets/Philly or Denver/Philly or Baltimore/Philly.

See what part stays the same? :D

you're a wise man. the NFC is stinking up the NFL, with Philly being the exception

I'm cheering for the Eagles to make the Bowl...I mean they have to, right? McNabb and co. need to get it done this year, and I'm pretty sure they will. I still think the AFC wins the big game, though.

*edit*

I thought I'd throw something else in here. Vote for All Pros, everyone.

QB - Manning, McNabb, Brees
RB - James, Barber, Martin
WR - Owens, Walker, Harrison, C.Johnson
TE - Gates, Gonzalez
DL - Freeney, Berry, Stroud, S.Rogers
LB - Farrior, Lewis, Bulluck, Witherspoon
CB - Winfield, Trufant, D.Robinson, McGee (kick returner, too)
S - Reed, Polamalu, R.Harrison

Best Offense - Colts
Best Defense - Steelers
Most Balanced - Patriots, Eagles
MVP - P.Manning
Offensive Player of the Year - A.Gates
Defensive Player of the Year - E.Reed

Re: The NFL thread 2004-2005

It's so sad that there are six teams with a record of 5-7 in the NFC that still have a chance at the playoffs. There are only six teams with a percentage of .500 or higher in the NFC...when in the AFC there are 11 teams with .500 and better. I know it's obvious that for quite some time the AFC has been a much better conference...but the NFC keeps getting worse. I hope there isn't going to be a team with a .500 or less percentage that makes the playoffs.

Still got to win the NFC Championship game, which has been a bit of a problem.

They may or may not do it this year. I don't see how they can screw up this year though..the NFC isn't that great, but the Eagles always make me nervous..no matter who they're playing.

I just think its part of their master plan. Like...maybe....in the last game of the season...they'll use an Amnesia potion so everyone will forget about how bad they did.

Re: The NFL thread 2004-2005

Tice needs to get the axe. The Vikings are a joke.

Edgerrin James now leads the NFL in rushing AND yards from scrimmage. He should flip off everyone that said he would never return to form after his knee ripped in half in 2001...but he wouldnt because he's a classy guy. If the Colts make a Superbowl appearance, it will be more of a result from his play than Peyton Manning's, in my opinion.

GO EDGE!

GO COLTS!

Re: The NFL thread 2004-2005

*sigh* Owens is out for 7 weeks. He has a high ankle sprain, and a fracture below his knee..though I don't really know the details. I hope the Eagles do better next week, they were just off yesterday. The defense was fine, but the offense can do much better, and we all know that because of what they've done this season. I know that most of you are going to say that Owens is the main reason for that, but remember against the Packers, it was Westbrook who made all the big plays, and he scored 3 TDs. They have Westbrook and McNabb still, and they're more important that Owens I think.

Re: The NFL thread 2004-2005

Wow, I'm speechless, but happy nonetheless. The Patriots just got outplayed by the Dolphins, in a 29 to 28 upset. All I can say is, the Dolphins deserved that one. They made the big plays when it counted, and they where able to move the ball down the field and convert on several third downs. Very nice.

I am pretty sure you can chalk Owens up as "out for the season" I've torn ligaments in my ankles...combined with a bone fracture, I dont see how he could possibly be back.

And the Dolphins win over the Pats was simply awesome.

Let's not forget about our other AFC Easters. The Bills still have a shot for a wildcard spot.

I'm really hoping the Bills grab that last playoff spot. Drew Bledsoe is showing new life...and that defense is incredible.

We helped them out by beating the Ravens :)

Reggie White died. Didn't see that coming.

Man I can't wait to see those autopsy results.

And lest anyone forget what a huge ****ing bigot this guy was.

Quote:

CBS SportsLine wire reports
March 25, 1998

MADISON, Wis. -- Most people invited to speak to the Wisconsin Legislature give five minutes of pleasantries, get a few moments of applause and go home.

Lawmakers weren't expecting the earful Reggie White had in store for them Wednesday.

They thought the Green Bay Packers star and ordained minister came to talk about his community work and a recent trip to Israel.

White did, but his nearly hour-long speech also included remarks on homosexuality, race and slavery that turned the Assembly's applause to stunned silence.

White said the United States has gotten away from God, in part by allowing homosexuality to "run rampant."

HOMOSEXUALITY IS a sin, and the plight of gays and lesbians should not be compared to that of blacks, White told lawmakers.

"Homosexuality is a decision, it's not a race," White said. "People from all different ethnic backgrounds live in this lifestyle. But people from all different ethnic backgrounds also are liars and cheaters and malicious and back-stabbing."

White said he has thought about why God created different races. Each race has certain gifts, he said.

Blacks are gifted at worship and celebration, White said.

"If you go to a black church, you see people jumping up and down because they really get into it," he said.

Whites are good at organization, White said.

"You guys do a good job of building businesses and things of that nature, and you know how to tap into money," he said.

"Hispanics were gifted in family structure, and you can see a Hispanic person, and they can put 20, 30 people in one home."

THE JAPANESE AND other Asians are inventive, and "can turn a television into a watch," White said. Indians are gifted in spirituality, he said.

"When you put all of that together, guess what it makes: It forms a complete image of God," White said.

White said later that his comments were about coming together as a society and were not meant to stereotype the races.

"This is the first time I've been at a loss for words," Assembly Minority Leader Walter Kunicki, D-Milwaukee, said after White's speech. "You can still tell from the tension in the room that much of this was offensive."

Denver plays Indianapolis next week - which will truly be a fun game to watch. We shall see how the Colt's defense holds up. I don't expect much out of Minnesota, so I'm not even going to worry about them. And if the Rams pull another field-goal shoot out like they did with the Panthers.......well, that'll be yummy to watch.

Pittsburgh is 15 and 1. I don't want to be the pessimist, but they have had several close games this year. We shall see how they fare against the rest of the teams. I still think Pittsburgh will choke.

Go Eagles!
