Of course I'm a football fan. I'm a Dallas Cowboys season ticket holder.

Well, bad football is still football.... I guess

 

[Melman]

I wonder who Sherman is going to blame?

Who ya got?

 

[GNG]

No need to lie G&G

Honest.

Aw Rex, you really know how to hurt a guy...

 

[The Oldtimer]

Cuz you can do better

LOL, that's great!!!

Not that it would have mattered, but why wasn't that last interception reviewed? I thought all turnovers had an automatic review? It kind of looked like the TE was on his back before the ball came out, maybe not, but it's odd they didn't even look at it.

Rex is on a roll tonight.

Yea I actually thought the same. Very surprised it was not reviewed. I thought the TE was down.

It didn't matter at that point in the game.

The question is; did Atlanta win their Super Bowl tonight?

With the head coach coming from the Seattle organization and their recent playoff failures dogging them, does this win get the monkey off their back?.... and does it do so to the point of taking the edge/hunger right out of their game?

It wouldn't have changed the outcome.

Biggest poor sport in the league. Always starting shit

You're misinterpreting his nonesense for aggressiveness the ~12s~

We'll all find out next week.

They aren't. They say they are but they aren't. A few years back I remember Percy Harvin scoring a TD for Seattle after he CLEARLY stepped out of bounds at the 30. It stood and all scoring plays are supposedly reviewed. Just another case of the refs sucking ass.

By the way, how many people here are going to spent all week complaining about that no call on Julio's first TD? Probably none.

It didn't really matter though, Seattle lost that game with a bunch of blown opportunities (2 missed TDs to Doug and all the return yardage that was called back). That and Atlanta really took advantage of Seattle's secondary issues like I thought they would. Terrell really didn't have a great game. Also pass rush was spotty.

Just wasn't Seattle's year.

You are probably right, but that isn't the point. I highly doubt Seattle had a comeback in them either, but turnovers reviews are supposed to be automatic. And that one was so bizarre with all the bounces and the TE on his back it was very strange they didn't at least have a look at it.

 

[NWPATSFAN]

She's not.

In Dallas for the game tomorrow

Whew lucky for her. Now she only needs to worry about Gregory.

 

[Cave_Johnson]

Silver Lining: I started Ryan, Coleman, and ATL D in DFS.

Go me.

That would apply more to the famous MNF non catch by Golden Tate against the Packers. Probably the greatest travesty in NFL history.

 

[Rex Racer]

Who ya got?

Sherman has spent this entire season getting exposed. He is a pretty good, one dimensional DB (take that any way you want) that has had his warts covered by others until recently.

As for the nonsense of him being the best CB in the NFL?..................... well the bloom is off that rose.
