I dont get the "dont root against your team" thing.

Remember the "suck for luck" campaign last year....it paid off for the colts & they got him & if they wouldve went say 5-11 they wouldnt.

The difference with the Colts they were in a spot to get the first pick. So saying you want the Cowboys to lose when they have chance to make a run is crazy.

I think his point is why continue to take midround players when in one swoop you can change you teams entire make up with the right player if 5 years ago someone told me donate money to the cowboys and the skins will lose and get rg3 I'd have done it in a heartbeat (all of it is of course contingent upon that player you lost for being that special lol)


Cowboys fans in general are dumb because they have a beast qb who for years had (and still does to an extent) bad play calling, crappy oline, mediocre rbs, and under performing WRs.

And 3 teams in the top 8 picks seem to have hit home runs, and franchises will be changed for at least a decade (doesn't even account for Wilson, Cousins, and maybe Weeden).

Go ask Jet fans if they'd rather have Quinton Coples, Muhammad Wilkerson, or the bum from Boise Kyle Wilson over Andrew Luck/RG3

Skins went from either 26th/27th in PPG. to #4 and thats with missing Garcon for weeks, no Fred Davis, bad oline, and sub par secondary WR options.

The Pro Bowl rosters will be announced tonight at 7:00 ET on NFL Network. The players, coaches, and fans each count for 1/3 of the vote. It's likely that around 50% of the players announced tonight will not actually play in the game. Players for the teams playing in the Super Bowl are not eligible for the game since it's played in the weekend between the conference title games and Super Bowl, and many of the players for the losing conference championship teams won't want to play in the game either. Plenty of players will say they have an injury as well, some legit and some as an excuse for players that don't want to play in the game. Tom Brady has been selected to the Pro Bowl seven times but has only played in the game twice and regardless of if the Patriots are in the Super Bowl or not it's a virtual certainty that he'll skip the game this year as well.

Lindsay Soto is on the show so im there.

You know i mustve already heard like 4 tv peeps say dal/was is a "win & in" game.

I really think they say this stuff just to aggravate us cause there really is no other reason.

edit:
forgot to add why it isnt....its because the skins can actually be in it already by clinching a playoff spot before the game even starts.

Also its been coming out RG3 was icing the leg throughout the Philly game so I doubt he's even at 80%.

Cowboys got owned the last time they played

[Visco.]

Although I'm a cowboys fan, they probably have no chance of beating the Skins. RG3 is rested and I even think Cousins could beat them. The cowboys have had a horrible year for cover defense in big games this year. They also already lost once to the Redskins and I don't think the hottest team in the NFC is going to give up a loss.

I think the redskins deserve to win the east. They've had one heck of a year and it's pretty hard to trust a freshman quarterback let alone one that can rush. RG3 should be on the next madden cover.

It amazes me how some you "NFL fans" want or think there team will lose next week, man where's the faith ... As a Raiders fan, I would kill to see my team playing for a playoff spot, you guys are lucky that your still in it and are competitive as they are...

Its pathetic to hear some of this bs, especially the ones who want there team to lose for a "better schedule" next year

The faith gets beat out of you year after year... You wouldn't know that with your 2002 super bowl run and few quality seasons with Gannon

I want a super bowl to continue to push those St Louis picks down more and more

With all this talk of wanting the boys to lose watch it be a blowout something like Cowboys 45 Redskins 3 and then watch all the boys fans be all "THIS IS OUR YEAR!!! YEAH!!! SB BOUND BABY!!! WOOOOOOOOOO!!!

While Supersix is crying in a corner holding a RG3 jersey screaming "WHY?!! WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?!!! WHY?!!"

lol I'll be happy in my rg3 jersey even if they get blown out things have changed here and now they just need role players. They have a stud qb who in one swoop took them from 26th/27th in points per game to #4! I just can't see how those awful Offensive line rankings, the awful defensive rankings, the dropped balls, doesn't eventually catch up to them.

Don't get me wrong I'll be naked in the snow if they win, but I'm trying to lower my own expectations especially with all the stats that say how awful they should be.

Theres a big difference between having faith & being dilusional.

Of course with some of the stuff happening lately dilusional seems to be relatively common unfortunately.

He played the last game.

Deserved? That has nothing to do with. Earning your way is all that matters.

[sycro]

The ENTIRE 49ers D makes the Pro Bowl? Mostly as starters? Did the voters just ignore their performances against the Giants and Seahawks? They're not even the top defense in the NFC.

I count only 6.


Obviously calvin made it so another punch to the gut of the madden curse.

If that was a fight it wouldve been stopped in the 5th round.

He was exaggerating but I see his point. You would think the Niners with that many defensive players are the 85 Bears or 00 Ravens type defense and they aren't even close.

Yes, there was exaggeration, but they got 1/4 of the starting linemen, 2/3 of the starting LBs (1/2 of the backups), and both starting safeties. That's just insane.

Yes. When 5 of the 11 starters come from one team, they better not give up points (or score on every possession if on offense)

As bad as this is it's not as bad as 5 CHIEFS making it. A 2-13 team with 5 Pro Bowlers.
