Episode 71 ā Return of the Spider 2 Y Banana
Percy Harvin to the Jets, followed by a 6 turnover embarrassing loss to Buffalo. Now 1-7, only Oakland is worse. Almost time to clean house, but look at the core of this team: Harvin, Decker, Kerley w/ Amaro, Cumberland. Chris Ivory, Bilal Powell, DāBrick, Mangold Demario Davis, the SONS of Anarchy Just need a secondary, couple of pieces on O-line and a damn QB. They will probably be in a position to draft Winston or Mariota.
John Gruden rumored to be heading back to Oakland. Think heāll be successful? Been away for a long time. last coached in 2006. since leaving oakland, their head coaches have included:
The Bears are a disgrace. Despite having B-March, Alshon Jeffery, Bennett and Matt Forte, as well as a better than average QB, they just fell to 3-5 and are tied for last place in their division with the Vikings. To make matters worse, they just got beat down by the Pats 51-23. To make matters even worse, Lamarr Houston, DE for chicago, tore his ACL celebrating a sack of NE BACKUP QB Jimmy Garoppolo during the 51-23 loss.
Cowboys lose to Colt McCoy on Monday night. Colt proving some people cough-Browns-cough wrong by dismissing his ability to play in this league?
Steeler beat the Colts behind Big Bens 522 yards and 6 tds. 4th most yards in nfl history in a game. AFC North features 4 teams over .500. -Suddenly the AFC looks competitive. Only 4 teams in conference are under .500 mid-way through the season, compared to 9 in the NFC, including the entire NFC South! Panthers at 3-4-1 are winning that division. We talk about it a lot, but is it parity, or a shift in the balance?
Cards beat the Eagles and improve to 6-1 and the top spot in the NFC. That would mean the road to the super bowl goes through Arizona. Do you happen to know where the superbowl is being held this year? Can they do it? If they do it, behind Drew Stanton and Carson Palmer, what does it say about all the talk regarding needing an elite qb to win a championship in this league?

Episode 70 ā Consistently Inconsistent.
Peyton Manning breaks Bret Favres all time TD record. We knew it was going to happen and we touched on this last week, but isnāt in convenient that he did it on Sunday Night Football in front of a national audience? Does it matter that the NFL takes these things into account when they make the schedule? Is it good or bad that they do? lead to collusion?
Giants get beat down by Cowboys. Cowboys actually seem legit. DeMarcco Murray is playing out of his mind and the Cowboys O-Line is playing at the top of their game.
Rams stun Seahawks behind a fake punt that sealed the deal. Gutsy call by Fisher or realistic expectations for team. Been talking about the Rams for a while now but what concerns me is that they just released Austin Pettis and there have been some reports that they should consider trading Tavon Austin. This is good young talent that they should be building around.
We have a trade!
Jets trade a 6th rounder which can escalate to a 4th rounder for Percy Harvin, acquiring a great talent, although possibly just another Santonio. Why make this trade?
Idzik responding to pressure to use some of the 20 million?
Idzik trying to do something to get some wins and keep his job?
Idzik realizing heās dug Rex a big enough hole and heāll be fired so heās starting to build HIS team?
Idzik trying to determine if Geno is the guy by giving him some weapons to finish the season with.
Colts shutout Bengals. Are the Colts the top team in the AFC beside Denver? Bengals in trouble?
Bengals have 3 home games in 12 days (thank you schedule makers) and despite making the playoffs 3 straight years, they are having trouble selling tickets and are facing a blackout. No fan base? Jaded fan base?
This NFL doesnāt make sense. The Jaguars whooped the Browns, just a week after the Browns whooped the steelers, who just beat the texans, who just played great against the Colts. Colt McCoy leads the Skins to victory and the Dolphins beat the Bears. Who the hell is going to make the playoffs in this league?

Episode 69 ā Please Donāt Stop the Salsa Music
Adam Jones calls out Mike Nugent after missing field goal, resulting in a tie ādo your jobā
Soā¦.youāve never let a single receiver catch a single ball while you were defending him?
āKelvin Benjamināādidnāt know you could tieā Ā āARE YOUR KIDDING ME!!
Fire Rex Ryanādestroy your team.
āHe will be let go at seasons end, and thatās probably fine. As long as Idzik is the GM, Rex will not work there. Heās had too much power taken away from him in recent years and no longer has the type of control or authority needed to actually be a head coach. He will certainly be picked up as a DC almost immediately, and possibly be in the running for a HC position for a team like Oakland, who will probably āunleash the Rexā. The problem the Jets have, is they have a very solid defense, minus the CB position. Rex is a players coach. The defensive players love him and would follow him if given the opportunity. Mo-Wilkerson is a free agent following the season and if Rex is gone before heās locked up long term, the Jets will lose one of the top defensive players in the league. They cannot afford that. They need to pay that man big time money before pulling the trigger on letting rex go. The same can be said about Damon Harrison, David Harris,
Dallas beats Seattle, IN SEATTLE: Demarcco Murray continues his beast mode and Romo is playing like a true NFL QB. Too good to screw it up.
Falcons 2-4 despite top 10 qb and one of leagueās best WR tandems. Matt Ryan #2 in league in passing yards, Julio Jones #3 in receiving yards. Warrilow #3 in league in tackles. Team in #4 in league in scoring, but ranked 29th in scoring defense, giving up over 28 points per game. Time for Mike Nolan to go? Mike Smith? Product of tough division, even the Saints are sub .500
Brows just destroyed the division rival Steelers 31-10. Not a lot is being said about Brian Hoyer and the decisions Cleveland will have to make next season. Heās a free agent after this season with Johnny Manziel waiting to take the helm. Now before I get too far into this I want to preface it by saying that despite my confessed man-crush on Hoyer, he only completed 8 passes for 217 yards in the win. Not like heās lighting up the board, just playing good fundamental football and he has a good rushing attack around him. OK so..
Scenario 1: they stick with Hoyer and let Manziel stew on the bench, knowing the fanbase is happy with winning, but wanting to see the talents of Manziel, and will not hesitate to call for Manziel when Hoyer struggles
Scenario 2: They let Hoyer test free agency and leave, and let Manziel take the helm. If he succeeds, great. If he fails, as I predict, its more of the Browns being the laughing stock of the NFL.
Cousins: 0-4 since becoming the starter for injured RG3 and talk has begun regarding benching him in favor of COLT MCCOY! What has Colt done in this league. I looked at Kirks numbers and theyāre not great, but outside of 2 3 interception quarters, one coming in the 4th quarter of last weeks game, heās been fine. True, heās 0-4 as a starter this season, but the team in general isnāt that good. He has over a 60% completion percentage and has thrown 10 tds to 8 picks. Again, not great, but better than other qbās in the league.
