Teams get too timid in OT. On the 12 yard line just punch it in! Don't depend on a useless kicker!

I can't believe stupid announcers still bring up Donovan McNabb not knowing the overtime rules, he was joking.

Man Hartley's been bad this year. I'm not gonna give a knee-jerk reaction and say get him outta there, but the more he misses, the farther away his play-off heroics seem.

He was? Didnt sound like it to me.

Quote:
"I've never been a part of a tie. I never even knew that was in the rule book," McNabb said after the game. "It's part of the rules, and we have to go with it. I was looking forward to getting the opportunity to get out there and try to drive to win the game. But unfortunately, with the rules, we settled with a tie."

"I guess we're aware of it now," McNabb said. "In college, there are multiple overtimes, and in high school and Pop Warner. I never knew in the professional ranks it would end that way. I hate to see what would happen in the Super Bowl and in the playoffs."

Didn't watch it, but man what a huge win by Dallas.

Also, Pittsburgh is really, really good. To be 3-0 with the QB's they started is a huge credit to their defense and coaching staff. They might be my early favorite to win it all.

yes he was, he was just playing with the reporters, he admitted it a few days later on PTI. Glad you went to all the trouble to go find that quote though.

NFL really needs to look at this coaches calling timeouts rule. It's getting super stupid.

Rams up 14-0 on the Skins and were going for another TD when Bradford was picked at the Washington 10 yd line.

Nothing knee jerk about it, he is too inconsistant and needs to be replaced. I don't give a rats crap what he did last year, there is no excuse to miss that kick that close and indoors to boot.

Great start for the Broncos defense. I thought they'd move the ball better early, hopefully this current drive is a sign of things to come.

Cox with a goof, but he'll make many, many great plays in the future.

Nice defense by Lacey! INT!

EDIT: Manning to Collie. 13-0 Colts. I really love Collie's hands. 1 TD in each game so far for Collie.

I still believe he is a better receiver than Gonzales. Can't get any of you Colts fans to agree yet though.
