2009 NFL Regular Season Thread

Ugh. David Garrard is just a bad quarterback. The Jags would've won this game if they'd had a QB who could hit open receivers. Colts are 14-0.

I LOVE THIS TEAM!!!!!!!

Freeney and Mathis hardly play and the defense showed tonight but they come up big when it matters! (Just like the Patriots game). Manning to Clark was working most of the night on offense and what a throw to Wayne on the winning TD.

14-0 and 23 straight regular season wins!

vs Jets, @ Bills remaining.

Miami, NYJ, Baltimore.............you are welcome!

Freeney and Mathis not really playing allowed him to have more time. Freeney would have got to him a lot had he played. He only played 6 snaps when the game was in the 3rd quarter. Not sure of the final tally. With that said, Garrard made some horrible plays in the 4th quarter.

This Broncos fan thanks the Colts too.

Yeah, I'm not going to argue that, but Garrard made some awful throws tonight. That pick to end the game was absolutely horrible. He had receivers open and just flat out missed them. I don't blame the Jags for talking about taking Tebow in the draft. I don't see how he could be any worse than Garrard.

Yeah Garrard just isn't good enough. That's two weeks in a row the Jags were down by 4 and Garrard was inside the opponents 40 inside the last 2 minutes and failed.

Honestly its not a good thing for Miami but a good thing for the jets, Baltimore and Denver.

What Miami wants is the division we wanted the Jags to win and go 8-6 this way they would be playing for there playoff lives next week-end against the Pats with a chance to pull off the upset. Now the Jags will most likely fold for the year pending this week-ends results of course.

Either way not critical for Miami, as the jags or pats would have been eliminated from our race next week. Baltimore, Denver and the Pats are really the only teams standing in our way for the playoffs.

First things first
I'll take Denver in the playoffs a 100x before the Jags. Thanks to all those Flordia bangwagoners that showed up tonight giving the image that team actually has fans. Denver Bronco fans deserve it. I love being able to possibly ruin there season on prime time. I've grown a deep hatred for that team, and the fact that any big play they make needs a celebration or dance.

I freaking love this version of the Indy Colts. This team just finds a way to win. The defence looked awful for a lot of the game but man do they ever find a way to make big plays when it matters. Caldwell has really installed some much needed special teams coverage but tonight was awful. Although it is made better by that Hart kick off return for a touchdown.

I've got to think this team is going to go after 16-0. Watching Manning on the bench watching the Jags last drive you could tell he wants this bad.

The Jags aren't a playoff worthy team but beating them on a primetime game with an actual crowd to watch them with there season on the line is still a test.

P.S Dallas Clark is awesome

[ResAlien]

Either Payton Manning is the Devil or he sold his soul to him. He's just too damn good to not have some sort of Faustian deal going on.

That was Chad Simpson with the return.

Oh and Deon Sanders is a tool. Actually criticizing Manning on not being the one to win the game at the end. I can't stand this guy and how arrogant he acts on the NFL Network. Dion you havn't been relevant in the NFL since the early 90's. I'll take Teddy Bruschi's post game over his anytime.

Deion Sanders is an idiot. If you don't like the Colts then that is fine, as a lot of people don't. But to make stupid comments week in and week out about them is another thing. He's picked them to lose every week he gives his prediction. I don't like the Patriots at all but it would be like me saying that Tom Brady is an overrated QB. Utter nonsense.

No question he made bad throws on his own. He threw the ball to high on 4 different occasions in the 4th quarter. On that last drive right before the INT he badly overthrew the ball to a wide open recieve which would have resulted in a 1st down at the Colts 25 or so rather then a 3rd down pressure situation and a INT by again throwing too high and the Lacey INT.

The Lacey INT was a tougher throw to make than I originally thought, but that's why you're not supposed to throw into double coverage. He actually had an open receiver on the outside during that play.

I hope you are only talking about jacksonville fans and not all us florida fans cause if you are I will have to defend myself and make you look bad.

Huh?

Really? I don't see it. Who's doing all this celebrating and dancing you speak of?

What do you expect from a guy who openly admits his reluctance to embrace the physicality of his position was a 'business decision'?

One of the most overrated players of all time. Useless against the run and a terrible teammate.
