NFL Week 12 Random Thoughts

[Primetime]

I'm not backing off, but you're acting like the "important injuries" weren't there going into this week. I figured that was a moot point.

I don't believe that the Giants are "stiff" competition, because I think pretty much all of the NFL stinks. You are the one that seems to think that injuries are the reason the Pack lost to the Giants (otherwise, why would you bring it up, despite the "this isn't why 'we' lost" routine). I think that despite you rattling off a bunch of injured dudes names, it doesn't really matter. A lot of teams have important injuries. Doing a comparison is stupid in today's NFL, because the backup RB in today's game could be the next Adrian Peterson.

How am I acting like there weren't important injuries when I'm now repeating for the 3rd time that they were big issues in other weeks as well? You're a joke dude.
Repeating myself again, no team even compares to the amount of important injuries the Packers have.
Repeating myself again, injuries are not the reason the Packers lost tonight. Giants were the better team.

I feel like you are trying to make some kind of point that you haven't come out with yet.

You're right though....the multiple undrafted rookies the Packers were forced to start tonight have a .0001% chance of being the next AP

I only took issue because you did that weirdo fan thing of "Well, I'm not saying injuries were why we lost but -- here are all of our injured players right now" thing.

My only point was, again (which you seem to keep missing): they obviously weren't as big of a deal prior to tonight, and prior to tonight the Pack were considered a "Hot" team (5 game win streak, only losses were close, peckerslapped Houston which some consider the best in the AFC).

Injuries are not important in the NFL. The Packers have injuries. So do a lot of teams. You seem to think that the Packers injuries are more important than the injuries that other teams have, yet, you don't attribute tonight's loss to injuries. If the injuries weren't the cause of the loss, who cares about the injuries?

I keep missing the point of them being unimportant yet I've continued to say that they've been important. We were hot against weak opponents. I named all the injuries because of how ridiculous it is and specifically stated that we need to get healthy, which is why I posted it. But, now that you say it, how are these injuries not more important when they are, being conservative here, triple the amount of high caliber players as any other team in the league?

Who cares about injuries though, let's just have every team go out there with 3rd stringers....same thing. Not like that lowers your chances to win in the playoffs or anything.

EDIT: Just found out you're a Steelers fan. Injuries aren't important, they surely had no effect on the Browns beating the Steelers

Hopefully by Thursday the Falcons coaching staff realizes that Quiz Rodgers is the guy to start. Turners 1 YPC is not going to cut it and it slows the offense down. Runs with him is a waste of a play. With Rodgers back there at least he can hit the small holes given to him, instead of Turner tip toeing his way to them while they close immediately. Sick of watching that shit, smh.

If the playoffs began today:

HOU & BAL get byes

PIT @ NE
IND @ DEN

ATL & SF get byes

SEA @ CHI
GB @ NYG


Cincinnati, Minnesota and Tampa Bay each lose out on tiebreakers.

That was a clean fucking hit.

I hope the Eagles lose by 1 point.

I love how the three Chargers fall like dominos as he cuts back left.

[JimLeavy59]

How in the fuck do you let a guy get that open on a 3rd down?

[EmpireWF]

The Eagles are shit. Not just from a giants fan perspective, but legit shit.
