That was two years ago I think, when they had Boldin, Mason and Houshmandzedeh. And then one of those guys had a critical drop in a playoff game against the Steelers lol.

He called them "the greatest WR Corps in the history of pro football".....I remember that

[Hi, I'm VALUE!]

If I were picking a line on Pats/Broncos in the playoffs in Gilette, I'd probably set it at Broncos +4. It's going to be a fairly even game, but the Patriots can still run the ball well with Ridley/Vereen, and I think in a playoff game in which you're trying to keep Manning off the field, that'll be the difference.

As to Baltimore and their schedule, looks like Ben's going to give it a go for week 13

Btw, did anyone happen to notice that if the season ended today, the Colts would be @Denver in the first round? A potential Manning vs. Luck playoff game in their first matchup ever? The league would be dancing the jig of all jigs. That'll get Super Bowl-like ratings.

That is completely inaccurate.

The only historical reference was what they had achieved as individuals in their careers. It was also about the depth including Rice, Mcghae and Heap who were not WR's.

Others drove that conversation not me which is why you have such a distorted memory.

Not so much the defense was "exposed" as you wish to think as they were fatigued being on the field so much in a pass defense.

This is more on the offense as we somehow can not run the ball. I believe at one point in the 3rd or 4th quarter we were out gained 100 to 1 total yards on offense.

Flacco is a potentially great young QB and we have the best WR corps perhaps in the history of the game in Mason, Boldin, TJH, Stallworth, but we just can run the ball even with Le'Ron Mclain back and teams playing against the pass.

This is a very bad sign. Go and do your rant against Ray Rice now.

Thought I remembered him saying that too.

Here's the thread where he made the original comment...as expected, it sparked a bit of a debate...I like you Manta, but you were off-base on this one:

In retrospect I can't disagree with you I should have worded that better.

I just remember thinking it was an odd observation at the time...that offense wasn't anything special at all. The Ravens were 16th in PF, and their other offensive numbers were all kind of "meh". Their top receiver had 837 yards. There was just nothing there that screamed greatness.

Petition sent to President Obama to remove Jerry Jones as owner of the Cowboys. LOVE IT.

President Barack Obama helped saved General Motors. Fans in Dallas would like to see him do the same thing with the Cowboys.
A man from Ft. Benning, Ga. has petitioned President Obama to remove Jerry Jones from power, according to a Dallas Morning News report.
“We, the Citizens of the Great State of Texas, and Dallas Cowboys fans worldwide, have been oppressed by an over-controlling, delusional, oppressive dictator for way too long," reads the petition, which is published on the White House website and filed under "Human Rights." ”Request the Executive Branch's immediate assistance in removal of owner and GM, Jerry Jones. His incompetence and ego have not only been an extreme disappointment for way too long, but moreover, it has caused extreme mental and emotional duress.“
At least 25,000 signatures are required for a petition to receive consideration. As of Tuesday, NFL.com reported that fewer than 500 U.S. citizens have signed.

NFL.com wishes it was less than 500, its now 3,800 and counting.

[Hi, I'm VALUE!]

How many of those signatures are Crasher and his army of bot-puters?

[MantaRay]

I was thinking of voting, but then I thought to myself: "I dislike the Cowboys, hence I love Jerry Jones as the owner". Long live the mediocrity in Dallas.

[MantaRay]

OK. its Week 13!!!!

If the petition was to tar, incinerate and burn Jason Garrett straight to hell, I'd have signed it 150 times....there are a LOT worse owners then Jerry Jones in the NFL....not to mention my political beliefs that gov't has no right to tell someone how to screw up their business...gov't screws up ENOUGH stuff as is

OK. its Week 13!!!!

Take some of those banned PED substances and calm down that ADD mister....this crap takes time to write......
