NFL Week 16 Thread

Is it just me or does the direction of this thread so far speak volumes about how little anyone respects you?

 

Hey, I'm not going to miss it!

 

Actually, you're getting the NFL Network broadcast. It's just that NFL rules require all cable broadcasts to be carried on an over-the-air station in the competing teams' markets.

The situation will be the same next week in New York and New England.

 

Not in all of New England, though. In some places, like in Maine and Vermont from what I've read, they won't get that local affiliate feed leaving viewers to need NFL Network to watch the game.

 

From the "I had no idea" department: Isaac Bruce is about to pass James Lofton for third on the all-time receiving yards list. And he's less than 1,000 yards behind no. 2, Tim Brown. To which I say: I had no idea Tim Brown was no. 2 all-time, either.

Bruce has been a stud for most of his career, but still, I don't think of him (or Brown) as an all-timer. That said, Bruce would already be no. 2--and still years and years behind Jerry Rice--if he didn't miss so much time with leg injuries in the late '90s.

 

Faulk will never look older than 23 years old.

 

Isn't Bulger the second best QB to ever go to Pittsburgh Central Catholic?

 

Shit. Ben is still hurting.

 

The Steelers may have lost Parker for the rest of the season. At best, he is done for tonight.

 

Good to know 1 guy is watching and cares about this game.

 

I'm sure you are talking about Faulk, right?

Steeler D looks like shit.

Steeler running game look like shit.

Rams coaching staff looks like shit.

Rams secondary looks like shit.

Stephen Jackson looks amazing.

 

Ok, where is Collinsworth tonight?
And who is this other guy besides Deion?
