2008 NFL Season - Discuss it all Here

^D, you are one crazy bettin' mofo! 

V-Jax was back at practice today btw.  ...and yeah, I can count the amount of bets I've made in my life on 2 hands.  Largest individual bet?  $25.    Damn David Tyree!

SD-NE, I'd say take the over (44).  I'll say it again D, I don't know how you do it.  You must have one strong stomach...or a lot of ulcers!

Its easier cause I am playing with house money.

I turned 50 into 1500 last year and I am still raping the books with their own money currently.

so dropping 100 isn't bad seeing as I have more than made my initial investment of 50 bucks back. So u use their money against them by picking against the downside.

its a smaller payout but a lot less risk normally.


I sure as fuck wish I'd waited till Saturday to bet on the Eagles..... No westbrook!!!!!!!!!! I am really concerned.

I think they still beat SF just on their D alone. I can't see JT O Sullivan beating that defense with 50 year old Issac Bruce.

I heard Sandman talkin bout the phillies today, so I put 40 dollars to win 40 on them.  Lookin good through 7 innings. if Lidge don't fuck up the save!

Glad the Cardinals won that game.  Giving up a TD on a drive that invoked the "tuck rule" and then a game tying field goal after a five yard penalty in which an injured player was flagged for offsides unabated to the QB?  That would have been a tough loss to swallow.

Tuck rule.

I love how dallas lost it on a blocked punt that was freakin great.

Is there anyone outside of Big D who DOESN'T like seeing Dallas lose? 

[sandman]

eagles win followed by FOX bonus footage of the last few minutes of a heart-breaking (embarrassing?) loss by the cowboys. a great sunday of football.

Romo is so soft. it's so much fun watching him panic and fumble the ball during close games. 

[D]

God Damn it I am so pissed off.

Romo fucking sucks

Jason Garrett is the worst offensive coordinator in football

Hello, Dallas, u dumb bastards, bump Fitzgerald and play a safety over top like they do TO.

also, 3-4 defense SUCKS

switch to a 4-3 with Ratliff and Tank as DT and we would be unstoppable.

Clearly you missed the Ravens' stellar O today.

I don't think so but the ironic thing about that is i am IN big D.

Maybe betting isn't as much of an exact science as you thought.

The Titans are definitely the best team in the AFC at this point. They have a very good defense and a very good running game. Kerry Collins is a better QB than Vince Young and can do a better job of managing the game without making any big mistakes. But if I had to pick an AFC representative in the Superbowl right now, I'd still go with the Colts. Once all their guys come back from injuries, they'll be the Colts we're used to seeing. I think it's quite possible we could end up with an Eli vs. Peyton Superbowl this year.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say the Rams pull off a huge upset against the Redskins this week. I'm still not sold on the Redskins; I think they're major overachievers. They haven't lost since week one, and they're coming off two hard-fought, emotional wins against two division rivals, whereas the Rams are coming off a week of rest. To me, this just seems like one of those games where the favorite comes out flat, thinking they've won just by showing up, and the underdog pulls a fast one on them.

I wouldn't be surprised either if the Cardinals beat the Cowboys, especially with the way the Cowboys have played the last two weeks.

Good calls with the Rams and Cardinals.  I too thought the Cards would beat the Cowboys.  They're very tough at home.  I can't say I expected the Rams to pull off the upset though.  Props on that prediction.

Dallas has really looked like shit the last 3 weeks. They can't seem to do anything right which of course is fine by me.

Maybe I should get in on all this betting stuff that D does. I could've won a nice chunk of change with those two upsets.

No. At least not when they have assholes like T.O., Pacman, Tank Johnson or any other thugs that are in the NFL on the team. I could root for Dallas if they didn't employ these kinds of pricks.

IRVING, Texas -- Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo has a broken finger on his throwing hand and could be out for up to four weeks.

Yeah, I saw that at the gym today.  It explains why he threw that wounded duck towards the end of that game...at least I hope it happened before he started throwing the ducks.

Hey, how 'bout some props on my Rams to cover, Eagles, and Jags predictions!  I'm very sorry to the Pats' fans for predicting the Patriots would win.    I am a fucking curse on the Patriots!   

PS, Oh man, f'ing Brad Johnson will be starting!               10 years ago, I did prefer him over Randall Cunningham...but that was 10 years ago!!!!!!!!!!  Felix is hurt too.  The 'boys are f'd.  As much as folks like to razz Romo, he's still a very good quarterback.  His absence will be felt hard in Dallas.   

[tim_m]

I don't think he's that good. He makes too many stupid mistakes when it matters most. He's a panicker, but back to your original point they are fucked at least for the next month!

D, Drew, Axl4Prez2004 and Martin Crane's Crane have won as many playoff games as Tony Romo.

Dude just sucks.
