I actually shortened it in MMQB this week to EBQBPPJ or something like that. <br /><br />I didn't really intend it to be funny in the first place, but wanted it to reflect my boredom with writing Tebow's name, but do it in a Tecmo Bowl-type way. It's really long to write anyway, which is why I shortened it. <br /><br />Too Easterbrookian I am guessing?Bengoodfellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09401971573776672570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-102327997051254703.post-4223666114809491052012-11-20T10:18:52.775-05:002012-11-20T10:18:52.775-05:00Love the site and visit it daily.

I am not sure the hit wasn't illegal, but the WR laid on the field and the line judge threw a flag after seeing the guy didn't get up. It was completely based on the reaction, which is silly. <br /><br />I read a couple of Browns fans complaining about that call on Twitter. I don't know if the Cowboys are back, but they simply are what I thought they were. Good enough to beat some teams, but not good enough to be a great team. They have 9-7 written all over them. <br /><br />I feel bad for KC. It's only a matter of time before Bill Simmons jumps on the "sympathy bandwagon" for KC. I firmly believe KC has talent on defense and some on offense. They need a coach. This is why you don't let the players choose the coach (I hear the sort of chose Crennel), because they are players for a reason. <br /><br />There's no quarterback in this draft I take if I am KC. They will have to take one though, right? I know he isn't the best, but I may try to trade for Matt Flynn. Possibly he sucks, but I would try to trade for him and then draft a quarterback with the full intention of having a coaching staff that can work with him. I don't see an impact quarterback in this draft.Bengoodfellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09401971573776672570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-102327997051254703.post-3408754021236260852012-11-19T18:13:49.524-05:002012-11-19T18:13:49.524-05:00Dallas Cowboys 23 Cleveland Browns 20
This might ...<b>Dallas Cowboys 23 Cleveland Browns 20</b><br /><br />This might just be me, but if there was ever a call that proved that these "defenseless receiver" penalties were horribly subjective, it was the one in the fourth quarter in this game.<br /><br />Ogletree kind of reaches up/dives, touches the ball and gets hit... penalty. There has to be some kind of a rule change to clarify that kind of thing. You can't tell the D to hold up while the wide out makes the catch. Ogletree went for the ball, got hit and it just so happens he ended up getting sandwiched. <br /><br />It's one of those plays where you know if Ogletree gets up there's no call and it's infuriating to see that.<br /><br />On another note: Captain PED's crew was atrocious.<br /><br />The horsecrap (pardon the pun) horsecollar penalty that put the Browns in the red zone, followed by the personal foul for the hit on Ogletree and just generally fucking it up... <br /><br />On the one hand, I'm kind of worried that the Cowboys are "only" a game back, but at the same time, 10 first downs by penalty and they still needed OT to beat the Browns thanks to Romo pulling his typical "gunslinger" bullshit, so meh, whatever.<br /><br /><i>The Chiefs are terrible and the stands were only half-full for a home game.</i><br /><br />Terrible doesn't even to begin to describe the Chiefs. This team is worse than the 0-16 Lions team, because at least the Lions kept it close. <br /><br />Their losses this year have been by: 16, 18, 17, 3, 28, 10, 18, 3 and 22. Those aren't margins of loss you see out of professional teams now a days. <br /><br />Being here in KC now, it's actually even sadder with the knowledge that the KC fans love the Chiefs and if they were even 3-7 at this point, they'd probably still sell out.<br /><br />The fact is that Pioli and his ego completely botched the offense.<br /><br />You have Bowe, you have Charles, he drafted McCluster and then made Matt Cassel his QB.<br /><br />In the off-season, had you asked me to list the teams that were literally one position away from being really good, it'd be Denver and KC.<br /><br />You honestly put a somewhat competent QB behind center, the Chiefs probably make the playoffs, but when your offense manages a staggering 88 yards in the entire first half, you have major issues.<br /><br />And just their luck that none of the QBs in the upcoming draft look like they're worth a damn and there's no really stud OL guy, so they'll be stuck drafting DL (again) or using the first pick on a Sanchez type reach QB. richnoreply@blogger.com
