***The Official Late Games Thread***
 

Pittsburgh runs on a 4th and 1, and can't get into the endzone.

Horrible playcall.

That was some Herm style.

And Pittsburgh shows us what a Defense looks like...

Safety.

Watching golf on NBC. Their promo for tonights game consisted solely of
ROMO
IS
BACK

Pittsburgh really has no OL at all, do they?

Rivers get picked off.

Emmitt Smith?

The San Deigo Padres are leading over the Pittsburgh Pirates 7-5 in the 6th inning.

Titans get a TD. Jags up 14-10 now....

Damn,will baseball season ever end???

Nope....

49ers up on the Rams 35-6 in the 3rd

Arizona could end up with two receivers with 10 receptions and 150 yards each. Through 3 quarters:

<pre>
Arizona Rec Yds Avg Lng TD FumL
A. Boldin 9 152 16.9 45 0 0
L. Fitzgerald 9 139 15.4 33 0 0</pre>

Cards up on Seattle 26-7. Hasselbeck gets picked off in the endzone by Carlos Dansby. He brings it out of the endzone and fumbles the ball and Seattle gets it back with a fresh set of downs...

Good thing I started Kurt Warner today.

Seattle gets a touchdown 26-13 Arizona early 4th Q...

The Titans take the lead.

Steelers up 8-7 late 3rd

Does anyone have any good fantasy TE tips?

I have Tony Scheffler who plays like once a month and I'm still winning without getting any TE points....

I have him too, and I been barely getting by in my fanasty team w/o any help from my TE position.

Heck, my TE position is John Carlson from Seattle, and it's not looking good there. I may have to go find a different one.

I guess one way of trying to make it up is trying to find a TE that TE's team is going up aganist a very bad defense.

Half the teams in my league carry 2 TE's which sucks ass for my position too....

I have no TE yet I have 5 very good RB's and no one wants to trade, bunch of pussies, I'm still 8-2 and have 2 of the top 3 QB's so ha!

I just want to say that in games like the Pittsburgh/San Diego game today where there's a safety early, the whole "Is this a baseball score?" joke is lame. It's not required to make that stupid joke every time. I was thinking, "oh good they're not going to make that tired joke." but Jim nantz did it anyway. It's stupid and lame.

Is that TE from New York Jets still available in your league? Might want to take a flyer on him maybe?

Dustin Keller? Yea no one has him, Kevin Boss isn't on anyones team either that's about it for available TE's.

If I make a move I'll have to drop someone...I'm not even sure I want to drop Scheffler at this point.

While true on that you don't want to be sure on dropping him, I think Keller will at least equal or maybe give you more value in terms of points per game than Scheffler will, because of the fact that Scheffler is still injured.

Plus if Keller, Fasano, and either Greg Olsen or Zach Miller are available, I think your TE position won't be that bad at all. I mean, granted, it's not Whitten or Gonzo, but still.

The comeback is on. 26-20 Zona.

Seattle gets another touchdown 26-20 Arizona up 4th Q

Well here's my team wanna tell me someone to drop......this is a keeper league where I get to keep 2 players so don't tell me to drop Tom Brady..

Cutler
Warner
Brady

Barber
Turner
Brown
Parker
Slaton

Marshall
Cotchery
DeSean Jackson

Scheffler

Akers

Philly
Chicago

I only start 2 wides so I get by there...

Please explain to me why you can't drop Tom Brady, unless you have a clause that something like "Can't Cut Player" (Which I think it's bullshit).

I see Slanton could be released, but then again, he did had a solid day today. Personally, I'd just go ahead and drop Scheffler and get a TE that is playing.

Because it's a keeper league that goes on year after year, if I drop Brady one of the shitty team owners can claim him and keep him as a keeper for next year...

Brady is a giant scorer in this league.

I love that Coors Light commercial with U-Turn from "Weeds". I ****ing love U-Turn.

This is true, but you also should look down the road that, is NE going to be a consistent team that is going to keep their offense together as one? Also, the bigger question is, how good is Brady really going to be next year after missing this season?

Historically, QB's tend to struggle the following year after suffering a major injury, although there are some execptions to the rule, but even that, it's still hard to get a feel of that anyways.

You're going to have a really hard time convincing me not to keep Tom Brady on my team when Moss is still there...

Well, and Wes Welker as well. I suppose that's a good argument there. If you are winning your games without much trouble, I think you probably could get by w/o needing to drop somebody for the TE position.

I still think getting Kellen for this year over Scheffler would be a good investment. Long term, I don't have any idea how it will turn out though. Scheffler does have a solid QB in Cutler, but how much Scheffler will turn out to be remains a question, I suppose.

looks like the Titans will remain unbeaten up 24-14 with 3:00 minutes left...

Well if they can survive next week, Titans have a decent shot at 14-0.

Arizona held on to win over Seattle. 26-20

This Pitt-SD game has been a coat hanger abortion to watch.

Phil Simms' made-up word of the day:

"Cancelize"

San Diego is reeruned, they should have just let them score, they'd have had a minute to try to score.

Steelers score a touchdown but its coming back on a holding call.....

There should be 10 seconds ran off the clock for offensive penalty.

OMG steelers down to a kick?

They have timeouts...

That's only on a procedure penalty.

11-10 Pitt

Thank you gentlemen. My Mistake.

Once again, if these teams had a kid playing Madden as a consultant, this would never happen.

And SD chokes another win away at the last moment. ROFL

I'd like to be the guy who has to look up the number of 11-10 scores in NFL history.

lol,there has never been an 11-10 final score in the NFL

wth happened there?

ok, boy stand up

I never understand why teams do that, if the other team has it inside the 10 on you with a minute left let them score.

Because football coaches follow tradition rather than logic and odds.

Unless they have have a heads-up guy like Westbrook. That is one of my favorite plays the last 5 years.

GODDAMMIT!!

I benched the Pitt D!!

Well there goes the 11-10 score.

ahhhh damn there goes the 11-10 score

That garbage time TD just cost me my ****ing fantasy game.

Ha! Dick move by Polamalu.

Can you imagine how many people who took the points just shit their ****ing pants?

Yeah, but then you're going to have teams kneeling on it and running out the clock and kicking the FG to win anyway.

I was just thinking, I bet that ****ed someone over.

ROFL

If on that first hand off they had just let him go to the endzone, they'd have had about 1:15 to drive the field...

Most players would just run it into the endzone, it's pure reerunation to start calling timeouts to tackle the RB.

Shit like that is why I never, ever bet on sports.

What a dogshit division we are in, thank goodness

Ha, I won a fantasy playoff week because of that play.

wth was that? No Hail Mary? What good does that do -- dinking and dunking with a minute left -- they should have just taken a freakin' knee. lol instead of letting Polamaloolumaooi run in a TD

Gawd, Norv stinks

Oh wait I don't think it's a TD.

There still hasn't ROFL

lmfao now it's 11-10 final

Nope you didn't....they took it off.

OWNED

Wait, it WAS 11-10. Basilieus is dancing in the mother****ing streets.

Good God officials are stupid.

You got raped

Rivers can't throw an 80 yard pass, and the Saints scored on a lateral play a few years ago.

Thank god for illegal forward passes.

Hmmm, trying to follow on Game Center. It is still showing the TD. :shrug:
