Damn the Ravens but three AFC North teams in the playoffs.

Bring on the Donkeys. Mendenhall hurt his knee and didn't come back and that may just kill our hopes for a run to the SB.
 
Apparently my Jets really did decide they didn't want to make the playoffs. Losing to the Phins when all they had to do was win and they were in is nothing short of unacceptable.

Said it before the season but I seen a big let down this year. Not enough speed at Wr, QB that listened to the hype, Average RB play, and a defense that lost key players and took a step back. This season would have been frustrating if I was a Jets fan.

Redman, Moore and that other dude are just as good if not better imo. Not that big a loss.

What are you talking about? They were not just win and they were in. They had to win and the Bengals,Titans and either Denver or Oakland needed to lose.

Wrong and you just showed that you haven't watched much Steelers ball. Mende is one of a few backs that can stay on the field all downs. Redman is a power back that fumbles twice today. Moore is brutal and the rookie was in drafted and his first game was last week.

The Mende loss is huge is he is not back.

You're right. I hadn't seen them that much but from what I saw of Redman (I think the Houston game when Mendenhall got hurt or didn't play), I was impressed. Mendenhall runs in a very mechanical fashion with little maneuverability once he gets going (unless it's completely straight ahead) and Redman has a little more shiftiness and agility to him with some solid power and a niche to find little holes. At least that's what I took from what I watched. I did not however know he fumbles so much though after looking it up, he does have just two fumbles. He has about a third of the touches as Mendenhall (who fumbled just once) but I'd hardly say two fumbles is a lot. I've always loved Moore as one of the better 3rd down backs in the league. For me, it's a short season and I see no reason Redman can't get 13-18 carries with the other two guys getting about 7-10 combined. They'll play four games max.
 
49ers finish 13-3, win the NFC West, get the 2 seed, and the first round bye. All this in Jim Harbaugh's first year as HC. Quite remarkable. It's been a fun season, and I can't wait for the playoffs.
 
Oh yeah and YB should be happy see that the Rams fired the HC Spagnola *spelling*

Bittersweet. I had high hopes when they hired him, and think that one day he'll be a good coach, but this season was a disaster of epic proportions. The rumor is that Stan Kroenke is waiting for San Diego to let AJ Smith go so he can become the Rams' GM and hire Jon "This Guy" Gruden to coach.

I would guess you know this; but The Jets also needed The Titans and The Bengals to lose in order to make the playoffs - even if they did win.
 
Spagnuolo will always have a home with the Giants defensive coordiantor.

He was so loved in NY/NJ they'd welcome him back today

Yeah, apparently I'd misremembered what I'd heard about that scenario.
 
Green Bay start Flynn and trade Rodgers? 460 yards and 6 TDs, both records...... Hmmmmmm

Honestly, I think this shows how overrated Aaron Rodgers is. If the backup can put up those numbers, then I'd say Rodgers is more of a product of the system than an elite level QB. Yesterday definitely changed my perspective on just how valuable he is.
 
The thought did cross my mind that maybe he ain't quite as great as everybody thinks. Although, the sun shines on every dog's *** occasionally.
