Andrew Luck is about to go ham on the Chiefs on Sunday.

[descendency]

So, who wants to see San Diego and New York? I want to watch it just for the comedy show. That game has the potential to be the NFLs first 4-2 game.

For the love of gods , what is Rex doing?He start McElroy over tebow? SO freaking lame that is. That is just plain stupid and sad. But I guess Tebow is just a waisted trade to the Jets. Man they are a mess and truly just suck.

A Seattle win (or theft) would give the Packers the #2 seed (if the Packers win theirs)....

Go Ravens too!

[49ersfan_87]

No Thursday or Monday game this week but there is a Saturday game.

Kind of a blah week, but Week 15 looked awesome and a ton of games were stinkers. Looking forward to Bengals/Steelers and Vikings/Texans at 1, and Giants/Ravens at 4. Obviously also looking forward to SNF. Hopefully there are more close games this week- only 3 were really close last week.

[49erNation85]

Never a blah week for 49er games. Always new an improed formations to look forward too NOT.

Is the Tebow trade a small waist or a large waist? Regardless, Ryan really needs to buy a different belt.

Tim Tebow really sucks. Mark Sanchez is a huge upgrade from him and you can believe that was hard to type.

[Unbiased]

If you look at the ESPN map to the question "Should McElroy or Tebow start," New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut all say McElroy. Everyone else (except bama of course) says Tebow. Jets fans realize Tebow is atrocious. The rest of the country is just a bunch of dummies who think everything should be handed to Tebow because he's a nice person.

Week 16??? Where did the season go......

[JoeJoeBrown]

49erNation, you are always a great source of words. Randomly place words. And some jumbled letter groupings that may have originally had the best intentions of being words but really are just vague notions of the spasms of a semisentient being.

Damn. This just hit me as well.

[Jvig43]

Say what you want about Tebow, and he is awful but he isnt the turn over machine that Sanchez is. Hes also good for at least one game changing play with his legs. I'm not really trying to make a case for Tebow to be a starting QB but he certainly gives you something over Sanchez.

[JoeJoeBrown]

Sanchez is one of the worst starting QBs that I've ever seen. I have no ******* clue how the guy has been a starter for so many years. He must be a god on the practice field. Or he lets Rex Ryan suck on his toes.

Whatever it is, it's baffling. The dude is terrible. Those playoff teams won with strong defense and strong running games. Tebow (whom sucks as a QB) could have managed that just fine as well.

[J-Mike88]

Plenty of horrible QBs these days and that's why we need to keep the good ones from getting hurt.

How is Rob Parker not fired yet, by the way?
Kick him to the curb. BET will hire him anyway.

In 2006, Fox dropped MLB analyst Steve Lyons after he suggested on-air a convoluted connection between Hispanics and stealing wallets, which he told USA TODAY at the time was "a joke that had nothing to do with race. ... I'm happy to apologize to anybody who took it that way. But it seems a little stretch to lose your job over. It's hard to understand."

On-air references to ethnicity can be job-killers even when it's unclear which group is being stereotyped. Just weeks into a much-hyped gig at ESPN in 2003, Rush Limbaugh was dropped after theorizing that the media "is very desirous that a black quarterback do well."

BROWNS:


I almost feel bad for Cleveland.

i'm pretty sure we'll lose to the browns and drop the 2 seed that new england so nicely gave us.

I would appreciate that very much, but I somehow doubt it. I love how the Browns haven't realised that Trent Richardson is the type of back who wears defenses down and will get better the more carries he gets. But in saying that, Peyton will have the Broncos up by 14 in the 1st and the Browns will put it all Weeden

Pretty pretty please. But no, you guys are going to kill them. I think Denver represents the AFC in the SB this year.

Compared to the start of the year I really think it's between the Broncos and Pats. The Texans look like pretenders the last few weeks, the Ravens have fallen off big time and the Bengals and Colts shouldn't scare anyone.

As it stands it looks like the Pats should play the Broncos in the divisional round at Mile High. I like how we match up against their back 7 but it's all abou blocking Miller. Of the 3 top defensive players this year he is the one who has had the most success against the Pats o line.

Defensively Peyton will make plays and Thomas will have a decent game, but once again I thik we can slow them down enough. For me that game would likely decide the winner of the AFC

oh stop it. You guys will run us out of the ******* stadium by the third quarter.

[Grizzlegom]

Miami isn't officially eliminated yet! In addition to the Dolphins, I'm a Steelers and Chargers fan this week!!

[49erNation85]

Ryan Leaf over Mark Sanchize ?
