Thursday Night Bucs VS Some crappy team from Minnesota.

[Al Bundy]

Thursday Night football. At the dump AKA The Metrodome.

I didn't know that but it's a good idea

Strange how that team was picking in the top 10 when didn't have a QB. Just 2 years later they're 5-2 and possibly on their way to the playoffs.

LeDanian just called JC the best RB in the league. Props.

I haven't seen any Vikings games this year, but I'm still fairly skeptical.

I seem to remember outside football fans who knew nothing about the Chiefs saying in 2010 that Cassel was a pretty good starting QB no matter what I tried to tell them.

Ponder's got the same kind of thing going on. Good news for him is that he's young and still learning. Ponder will likely continue to improve. How much is another story.

Unlike Cassel, Ponder actually played college football and was a 1st round draft pick.

I thought he looked like a rookie on a very, very bad team (no secondary players minus Winfield, who is old. Only 1 LB who is quality. A mediocre O-line and apart from Percy, no real receiving corps)

I saw several flashes throughout the season from Ponder that made me believe he could be as successful as Andy Dalton on a better team. Ponder also IMO has better physical tools.

Oh this football game should be fun - Schiano thinks he is playing college football - Give him a couple of years ... Aggressive cluelessness.

I saw this on ESPN highlights Sunday ... Hysterical.

The home team was down 28-21 when a New Orleans drive, which began at their own 5-yard line, stalled on 3rd and 9 at Tampa Bay's 33. New Orleans was about to attempt a 50-yard field goal when the Bucs' defensive line abruptly shifted and, according to Saints players, shouted in unison.

The shift earned Tampa Bay a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty for trying to draw the offense offsides, a rarely-enforced infraction which set up a Pierre Thomas touchdown run four plays later. New Orleans eventually won 35-28, and Saints players later said they'd never seen teams try to draw them offsides to the extent that the Bucs did ...

The pull also positioned a player over the long snapper, which is also a penalty.

I don't understand what you completely disagree about.

I might be in the minority but I think Shiano could be a good coach once he figures out he isn't in college

Thursday Night Football
5 wins at home ... 1 win away (Giants)

Edit: Read the sentence wrong.

Oh well...sorry about that

[GloryDayz]

I hope JA gets his ass slapped down like a mouse in a mouse trap. *'n useless traitor!

[DaKCMan AP]

Not a good start for Ponder. Don't understand not giving it to AP on 3rd & 2 after he just rolled for 8.

[Bump]

I betcha that CP thought the Vikings were idiots for taking Ponder

Why is there a guy wearing a Bronco's Tebow jersey there?
