2008-2009 NFL Season

Wonder if they'll lose to the Jets? They have the Colts left too. If they don't lose those games they will not lose before they get taken apart by the Giants in the Super Bowl. That's a bad matchup for Tenn. by the way. Assuming they stop the Giants run game, which only the Steelers have, Titans won't have an answer for Plaxico or Smith on 3rd down.

Editorial aside, pardon, but it does beg the question, and perhaps issue, what would be the best Super Bowl matchup.

exact same wording as the Patriots issue from last year. let's approve and start posting.

Looks good.

It's amazing how they annouce these fines then quietly rescind them. Justin Tuck got one last week, $7500, for a bogus QB sack. Days later, it disappears.

Good issue.

Newsday

SIMMS: I agree with the NFL. There has to be lines that are drawn, what you can do and can’t do. When you cross it, the league is about what people think of it, how you present it. And, players, when you step over that line you get fined.

 

COLLINSWORTH: It’s out of control right now. I mean every week now…. But I understand free speech. Let’s make sure everybody understands what free speech is. The government can’t infringe on free speech, but a private enterprise can limit anything that there employees say. I don’t mind when it’s a safety issue. But the Randy Moss fine that did get rescinded, let’s give them credit for that, but he basically said, “Hey, the referees have some good calls and some bad calls. They are going to miss one every now and again.” And boom, a $20,000 fine. The commissioner had to step in.

 

SAPP: The inmates should never run the asylum but the asylum has gotten a little bit off track.

i think it was on NFLNetwork or Inside the NFL....

wasn't Faulk...wasn't Sapp...Simms, maybe? whoever it was, I remember remarking out loud that he was not a smart man.

who did I hear say that they'd go undefeated??? I forget...

Hah. Good issue. Let's get it up quickly. If they lose next week then we quickly archive. No big deal. If they keep winning it turns into a great issue. I'd think about putting a time limit on this though. Maybe with one or two games left in the season.

Let the drumbeat begin. They'd still lose to the Giants on a neutral field. (OK, so I'm partisan)

Maintaining that element of surprise is getting more difficult by the week. The Titans, who before this season had never started better than 3-0, are starting to get the respect they so richly deserve.

And a 16-0 season is not out of the question. Of Tennessee's final seven opponents, only the New York Jets (6-3), Pittsburgh (6-3) and Indianapolis (5-4) have winning records.
 

I still think it's an issue and would keep Brady in there.
