Jordy Nelson might be the most underrated player in the league. I know it sounds bad but I think people just don't want to give credit to a dominant white receiver.
I don't think it is a blessing but I don't think it is a disaster either other than the cap ramifications of that asinine extension.
Yes that contract was really terrible. The cardinals really are the unheralded story of this year. They have the best record in the NFL at 8-1 and have been doing it with a great defense and an under the radar but clutch offense.
Tresman needs to pull Cutler before these stupid garbage time throws cost me a fantasy win. Horse crap.
Awesome challenge. He might as well just give the Bears the finger from the sidelines for the next 20 minutes.
The bears are a bigger joke than the Jets. Their GM came in similar to Idzik, had Lovie for a year. Fired Lovie and brought in this coach, he is both lost on offense and defense. Seriously, where do the Bears go from here? and they are stuck with Cutler to.... I am glad to be a Jets fan, at least we hit rock bottom, the Bears on the other hand are stuck in mediocrity.
As great as this season has been for them I thought it was pretty obvious they were still a QB away from being a legit contender. Three more years with Carson Palmer was not in their best interest but they were afraid they wouldn't be able to replace him with better. I figure how much worse were they looking at if they couldn't get him at an extremely favorable deal.
That completely pointless Marshall TD cost me my fantasy game, against the 1 guy I absolutely hate losing to.
here's some tales of woe I have an incredible knack for just barely losing props. October 26 Football - 411411 E Lacy rushing yards/E Lacy rushing yards over 60½ +115 for Game he got to 59 with 5 minutes left in the third then GB didn't run the ball again until the end of the game and when they did, McCarthy put in Harris so that Lacy couldn't get any more yards. Lacy did get plenty more yards, but only through the air. They wouldn't run it with him in the game. 4th and 1 at GB 40(3:36) E.Lacy right tackle to GB 40 for no gain (D.Hawthorne; T.Walker). was his final carry, that came with over 18 minutes remaining. http://scores.espn.go.com/nfl/boxscore?gameId=400554313 He finished with 59 yards rushing and 121 yards receiving.

Official stats from NFL.com Had 22 with 13 minutes left. Then he's intercepted and doesn't play again. We get to see Jimmy Clausen, when one more completion from that moron Cutler would've gotten me a push.
That is fn brutal..wow. Don't even know what to say. I guess i should just be happy my fantasy teams are all good, and i didn't lose money. Those type of things happen all the time. You think it's a free money bet no way you can lose, and somehow you lose the bet. Incredibly frustrating. The NFL is my favorite sport by far, but it's still the hardest to win money on. In the NBA things are more predictable, MLB too.
