You know your distaste for Buster? Thats how i feel regardng Dak. I think Dallas pulling him from the game actually gave them a better change at winning the game. Daks stats are the epitome of Buster getting a bunch of secondary assists.
I saw a video of Raider fans celebrating the Giants win.

Prescott has been overrated forever. Lot of tools at his disposal throughout the years and big nunbers but he just can't win when it matters. Dak has great win nunbers against what has historically been a weak NFC East during his time in the league but is barely .500 against the rest of the league.

Good article on TA about Eli Manning and whether he is deserving of the FHOF. My answer is a resounding yes, there are players in there who accomplished less (Namath being one of them). Manning's numbers are very average but when the chips were on the table and he had a full complement of weapons he was lights out. If dumbass Plaxico Burress doesn't shoot himself in the thigh in a night club in 2008 the Giants probably win back to back Super Bowls at 11-1 at that point, Manning found him constantly. Season went downhill from there.

Difference between Prescott and Manning, clutch vs flash. He doesn't bother me much, but basically all of Dallas does from their dumbass owner to their Toronto-esque fans - "this is our year" every year, done by December.

Also saw the Raiders fans happy, pulling for NY. The one time I actually wanted NY to lose, they don't. Like I always say with them, grasping defeat from the jaws of victory. They literally invent new ways to lose/screw things up constantly. That Koo botched kick fiasco, which was comical actually, summed up their season in a nutshell.

Keeping Schoen was a horrific idea but with Harbaugh now available after the Ravens fired him today I think he would be a great choice for NY. But Schoen will do something dumb like lowball him or something and that'll be the end of that and someone like Pierce (former Giant) will get hired as HC.

Someone else mentioned it as well. When he sat out the first game, I thought the same thing. Not sure his value but I wouldnt mind freeing up his salary.

Honestly I don't know what the Kings would get for TOTM alone, he is a B6 defensive forward who doesn't score much. Dunno went for a two but he's also a C which are more valuable than wingers. My guess would be he would be packaged with someone for a bigger deal but by himself, maybe a 4th.

The bigger win would be freeing up that salary, another Bowlby Special that has 3 years/$12.6M left on it still. Hard sell.

I have no clue as to how he is still the coach. It seems like they will lose a couple of games in a row and look really bad and then all of a sudden pull out a win or two to stop the talk of a coaching change. The are stuck in mediocrity.

Spot on, I also think just when he is about to get canned crap like last night happens with two key players injured buying him somewhat of a reprieve. I thought the exact same thing right before Kuemper got hurt, dude is going to get his pink slip but the injury buys him some time.
