JoeyJoJo 18 Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Judging from a purely fantasy football standpoint and not having seen one second of the game last night, I'd say I'll take Cutler's 1 TD/1 INT performance over 0/5.I didn't see all of it either, but I did see that he missed three wide open receivers that would've been TD's, including one near the end of the game.

dolfan 0 Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Yeah, it's wildly frustrating how well they have played overall just to be 5-5. Oh well, everything lined up last year just right....this is the other side of the luck factor.Yep, that's how it goes. They'd probably be a one-and-done team again in January, anyway, so oh well. I didn't see all of it either, but I did see that he missed three wide open receivers that would've been TD's, including one near the end of the game.That son of a bitch.

Ron_Mexico 4,219 Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 where's the Phin's respect?I had the MNF broadcast on in the background while I was looking at porn, um, I mean doing some research, and Tirico says about the Titans, "Well, they still have St. Louis, Miami and Seattle on their schedule, so they have a chance." regarding the playoffs. WTF?Now I know why I rarely watch sports telecasts. The guys in the booth mostly suck. Link to post Share on other sites

WTF?Hahahahaha I barely watched any of the game but I caught that comment and I exclaimed, "What? Fuck you, Tirico," at my TV. I mean, whether you think the Fins are good or not, I don't think they're a pushover win. Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe he just meant it is a winnable game. I would like to hope that is what he meant. Link to post Share on other sites
brvheart 1,752 Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 So after Ricky averages 150 yards and 2 touchdowns/game the rest of the season... will he be immediately supplanted in favor of Ronnie again next season? Link to post Share on other sites
DrawingDeadInDM 0 Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 I thought I heard that Ricky was done after this year..? Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 I thought I heard that Ricky was done after this year..? I don't think so.. he signed a new contract and he still owes money from his signing bonus from his first retirement. Link to post Share on other sites
CaneBrain 95 Posted November 25, 2009 Author Share Posted November 25, 2009 I don't think so.. he signed a new contract and he still owes money from his signing bonus from his first retirement.He signed a one year extension just before this season started, so he is locked up through next year. I think he makes 4 mill next year. Link to post Share on other sites

CaneBrain 95 Posted November 25, 2009 Author Share Posted November 25, 2009 Which is like the biggest steal currently in the NFL... except for maybe Adrian Peterson regardless of what he makes.It was a very fair price. I dont like the idea of Ricky carrying 25 times a game at the age of 32/33.....so I dont mind Ronnie being the starter (and I would like to see Lex Hilliard get at least 5-10 carries a game this season).But, yeah, Ricky is incredible value right now and he was awesome against Carolina. And I could not be more bitter that I got out-waiver-wired for Ricky in my work fantasy league around week 5. I could use him right now going against Buffalo. Link to post Share on other sites

dolfan 0 Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 I love ricky williams, btw.. I love every part of his story.Yes.After I got over my initial disdain for his decision to just walk away from the team, I actually couldn't argue with his choice to do so. He's a guy who's been blessed with a natural ability to play football but just doesn't care about it that much. He wanted to get out before his body was completely beat to shit and go do his own thing. I can respect that. He could have made that decision before training camp, but whatever. Then he realized he wasn't going to make much money while learning holistic medicine and needed to pay the Fins back, so he came back to get a few more paychecks and run a few more motherfuckers over. I can respect that, too. Link to post Share on other sites

That guy is underpaid no matter what it is.he's a late first round pick ( 24) which is strange, since he reportedly had a Deon-esque 40 time. I guess they didn't trust someone from east carolina or something. Link to post Share on other sites

CaneBrain 95 Posted November 29, 2009 Author Share Posted November 29, 2009 graciassorry. what a turd by miami. Bad coaching (halfback pass from the 4? are you ****ing kidding? that changed the whole game), bad execution. Made Ryan Fitzpatrick look good. And do we even have the shotgun formation? Maybe Henne would not get hit so much if he had a headstart on obvious passing downs. Link to post Share on other sites
