What happened to their line...did Hartings leave?

retired two years ago

So are you buying any of this 'tired' talk about the Ravens?

They've been playing since their bye in week 2, so 16 or 17 straight weeks now. They're giving up way more yards in the playoffs than in the regular season, but less points.

I was all set to go all in on the Ravens and now this 'tired defense' thing is making me rethink it.

The tired talk is lame. If :we: lose, :we: lose because PIT is the better team (which they are).

The tired talk is lame. If we lose, we lose.




That being said, I've got the Steelers in this one. 14-6.

Could you lose cuz you're tired?

They also have momentum.

Can you be tired and still have the mo?

I think you've seen the last of me (in this portion of the discussion).

My post has since been edited, but my 14-6 prediction still stands.

Are you getting tired of it?

LDB editing post gets ... well it gets tiring

Troy will have a bigger impact on the game than Ed will, if only because he's better at run support (as we all know, the rush offense/defense will be key). Plus, I think Ben plays smart and won't throw any picks, which means there will be no opportunities for Ed to do what he does best.

There'll be lots of punts in this game though, so who knows...maybe Ed will get a crack at a return.

Why I bother to watch NFL Live, NFL Network when you can get breakdowns like that ^ right here on WTF, is beyond me.

I typed that with a pen in my hand, BTW.

LDB: ANALyst.

Also, with Rolle out Ed needs to step up...even more than he usually does. He'll prolly have to cheat a lil bit to Rolles replacement. Rolles replacement is no slouch though, if what I've heard is correct. Forgot his name though.

Hines and Santonio going up against Fabian Washington and Frank Walker. Yikes.

The pen in the hand is one thing but the way these douches stand is annoying as fuck. Now they even have the chicks standing like that.

Frank plays in nickel packages right?

Coming up: my ANALysis of the Eagles-Cards. I know you can't wait for that, Tabro.

Frank plays in nickel packages right?

You are correct.

I typed that with a pen in my hand, BTW.



Great job!

Coming up: my ANALysis of the Eagles-Cards. I know you can't wait for that, Tabro.

This game is going to be better than expected, huh? Or is FrigginChris right that DM will dominate the Cards?

Coming up: my ANALysis of the Eagles-Cards. I know you can't wait for that, Tabro.

I like the Eagles in that one.

It all depends on if ARI can sustain the running game, which was a key part of their success in the games against Atlanta and Carolina. Philly isn't a team you want to throw 40+ times against.

You know you've got a pretty good secondary when you're bringing Lito Sheppard off the bench.

Warner needs to tuck the fuckin ball and go down, instead of throwing a pick, if pressured.

It'll be an intriguing game.

I'm leaning towards a 30-21 Eagles victory.

Speaking of time, Sean McHugh picked a pretty good time to get hurt, in hindsight.
Hard to believe, but a player cut loose at the end of the preseason by a team that would finish 0-16 will be a starter in Sunday's AFC Championship Game. McHugh is the starting fullback for the Steelers.
"You go from the lowest lows to the highest high in only a few short months," McHugh told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. "It's pretty incredible to look back on it and how things could have turned out differently. You're sitting there upset when the Lions release you and the next thing you know it's the middle of January and you have a chance to go to the Super Bowl."
McHugh, a fullback who also can play tight end, as he did in 2007 for the Lions, suffered an ankle injury in the preseason that might have cost him a roster spot.
"I think they were hoping they would get me back -- release me and I'd still be around and they could pick me back up," McHugh said.
Lucky for him, they didn't. The Steelers signed him a few days later. And now he's one game away from the Super Bowl.

If the Steelers win the SB, they should make a movie about this...

Samari Rolle will be out for Sunday. That's not good news.

I've seen him as 'doubtful' Is he out out?

Most likely (WOTS).

Game on bitches

Lets see if Boldin is a pussy like he was the last time these 2 teams met.

He was aligator armin catches...Eagles D was in his head.

FITZ! with a nice catch.

To be fair, that entire Cards team was a bunch of pussies when they played Philly back in November.

Bolden will have a good game. He's a legit badass.

NO THEY WERENT. DON"T ARGUE WITH ME

They all got whooped, yes, but he was being a pussy, imo.

Also...if Bolden has a good game, its not a good sign for the Eagles, cuz you know Fitz will have a good game and if they both have good games you know Edge is going to have a good game.

NO THEY WERENT. DON"T ARGUE WITH ME

Always an argument killer.

I was talking to this old bookie of mine and he said there was late money going on the Cards. And on the Ravens once the spread got bumped. But Steelers ml betting staying strong.

^FWIW

Culpepper would've scored a TD.

Oh hellz yea he would have.

I can't believe the Cards are already doing the nickel thing. They started the game they lost to the Eagles with that shit and they were down 21 before they knew it.

Play these fuckers heads up.

If my name was Clancy Pendergrass...I'd change it.

Did you change your name from Clancy Pendergrass?

See...don't be afraid to put pressure on him.

Good decision to have the NFC title game on first. The NFL knew pussies wouldn't make it through if it was the other way around.

DC doesn't throw picks.

I was just talking to my buddy and he said the Ravens D is tired.

Those crazy Cardinals.

Not much of a late hit.

I was just talking to my buddy and he said the Ravens D is tired.

Doesn't help much when the offense sucks ass.

I like Joe Cool

Me too, but it still sucks.

Maybe next year it'll be better, with Flacco having had a full season under his belt.

How did :we: get down the field so fast. I missed it.

Eagles are lucky it isn't that other TE that got hurt or it'd been over right there.

There ya go...run the ball up the middle on the Eagles in the red zone...brilliant.

I'm starting to like ARI's chances.

They've overcome some shit already this game and are winning.

But this sets up nicely for a DM comeback too.

Are the Eagles a comeback type team? Not sure about that.

If the Eagles had Culpepper it wouldn't matter how much they're down by.

WOW!

Specially with the Cards 'tired' D.

Don't challenge it. It hit him.

If the Cards would have got that one...things could get really serious for the Eagles in the 2nd half.

I had a sneaking suspicion the Cards would be up big at half.

McNabb is going to throw a pick six right here.

It has that feel, doesn't it.

"My" Cardinals are looking damn good right now. The rest of the NFL should be terrified!! A new dynasty is upon us.

Problem is JT, they'll have Leinart at QB here pretty quick.

Philly's falling apart, I'm getting ready to declare this one over.

Don't hate, Warner is ageless and Leinart has skrewed so many hot bitches that he can't help but being the next Elway.

Jesus H Christmas...what in the fuck could take so long to overturn that call.

Yeah, Tahoe's completely out of line dissing Matty like that. Leinart's a bro, one of us. We need to stick together.

Warner, the savvy veteran type that the Lions so desperately need.

Warner >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Kitna>Culpepper

If Kitnas the bar we're trying to get over...you can add a lot of names before that >>>>>>>>>

Yeah, Tahoe's completely out of line dissing Matty like that. Leinart's a bro, one of us. We need to stick together.


I'm willing to forgive him for impling such rubbish, he's obviously scared shitless of the dominance that Arizona is displaying. A pimp like Leinart will only take this to new, unimaginable heights.

LOL

Well that sucked

I just meant because I've heard people saying we could keep Kitna as a solid veteran presence (not on here, more local idiots on the radio), sort of how they've used Warner with Eli and now with Leinart, even though he eventually took Leinart's starting spot.

I'm willing to forgive him for impling such rubbish, he's obviously scared shitless of the dominance that Arizona is displaying. A pimp like Leinart will only take this to new, unimaginable heights.

With a receiver that can actually jump to unimaginable heights too, no less. ARI just might win the next 15 Superbowls.

But we've got Stanton and Calvin

But we've got Stanton and Calvin

Why are you talking to yourself?

With a receiver that can actually jump to unimaginable heights too, no less. ARI just might win the next 15 Superbowls.

...then it'll be renamed the Cardinalbowl.

You know, I was never a Collective Soul guy. I thought they were just another band riding the Seattle bands' coattails.

Anyway, game's back on.

Holy Schnikies

You know, I was never a Collective Soul guy. I thought they were just another band riding the Seattle bands' coattails.

Anyway, game's back on.

Aahhh! I hate Collective Soul. I knew a guy once who liked them, but he turned out to be gay. So I guess his opinion don't mean shit, unless your a fucking leberal.

Fuckin' Libs.

EAGLES = DONE.

Curtis is something. He doesn't look impressive, but he's pretty damn good.

Eagles = NOT DONE. yet

NOW we have ourselves a game, damn it.

Go for 2 Eags.

When did Craig Stadler get hired by the Iggles?

Here comes the Eagles

Cards punter seems to be sucking today

Game on.



http://www.chucksconnection.com/waynesworld/wayne05.jpg

This baby has an OT feel all over it....IF the Cards can hang on.

WTF ACKERS!

I sure hope "my" (insert winning team's name here) can pull this out!

This is what everyone expected the Philly D to be like.

Game on.



http://www.chucksconnection.com/waynesworld/wayne05.jpg

"I'm gonna be frank"
"Okay, can I still be Garth?"

Anybody having a beer yet?

I'm out of Amstel, had to substitute Miller Lite.

It's passable.

Beer is meant to be consumed during a Ravens-Steelers game.

This sissy ass game has wine coolers written all over it.

Beer is meant to be consumed during a Ravens-Steelers game.

That was the goal as early as yesterday. I think its a worthwhile goal...so I'm sticking to it.

I also just colored what is most likely the best picture of Grover -- ever.

These new plastic Crayolas are incredible.

HW assignment, Glenny?

I saw that DWade got "Father of the year" and that's my new goal.

Great friggin throw and catch.

DC can make that throw in his sleep.

Especially against the Ravens tired D

4th down ... go for it!

Especially against the Ravens tired D

Built in excuses rule!

I've got a new respect for Fitz. I didn't know he was this good. Fast and strong.

Fitz is a FOOTBALL PLAYER

Hightower just thumped someone too. You don't expect that type of play from the Cards.

Fitz is a FOOTBALL PLAYER

WHO MAKES SPECTACULAR FOOTBALL PLAYS ON THE FOOTBALL FIELD.

Philly fans would prolly love to kick Acker right in the balls right about now.

What a score. I think my Cardinals are going all the way this year. We've waited so long but it could be our year.

YEAH!!!!!!

McNabb better not try and win this, you DO NOT mess with destiny.

Rushing 3? WTF?

Prove me wrong Clancy

I'm a badass.

http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb236/GridironGoddess/kurt_warner9.jpg

Tom Selleck's younger bro is having a great game.

Cards pass D kind of sucks it looks like.

What would a Girl Next Door want with Hank Baskett? What a bum.

4th & 10! Nut check time for both teams.

Matty's probably bumping some "Summer Girls" by LFO in his head right now.

YEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FUCK B.O.'S INAUGURATION.

THE CARDINALS, MY CARDINALS, ARE GOING TO GO TO THE SUPERBOWL!!!

WE'RE GOING TO THE SUPER BOWL!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow...this...this is special.

I believe in NOW!

My team did it!

Nobody believed in us.

But we believed in ourselves.

WE'RE GOING TO THE SUPER BOWL!!!!!!!!!!!

Read as if it was spoken in the Colts' radio announcer's voice.

The Steelers might as well stay home for Superbowl Sunday. Like jturbo said, you can't fuck with destiny.

EVERYBODY COUNTED US OUT, EVERYONE EXCEPT FOR US FANS THAT IS!!!

I'm disappointed that all the fairweather fans in the stadium are getting to enjoy this. Bunch of punks. These are the same fucks that trashed the team after Philly and NE fucked 'em up.
But for us true fans...I don't even know what to say. I've got chills, man.

I'm glad to see you all have joined us on this magical journey to greatness. The Cardinals and I thank all you new fans, we appreciate you.

Much love,
Jturbo

Bidwell is ON THE FIELD!

Suzie Orzman is even tearing up.

Wow, I'm so happy...especially for Kurt. Just think where this guy was: bagging groceries, playing arena football. And for him to be in this situation....remarkable.

Now I have some Pacs for the 2nd game.

LOL @ playing We Are The Champions.

You really can't fuck with destiny.

Fuck the eglets.

LOL @ playing We Are The Champions.

You really can't fuck with destiny.

You sure can't.

BTW, I attended MHS, thus making me a Cardinal.

Suck on that, bootlicks (doesn't apply to myself, Jturbo, Tabro, or Vinny).

Fuck the eglets.

What do Cowboys fans and Eagles fans have in common?

Their teams lost to MY ARIZONA CARDINALS.

Aikman talking about doubting the Cardinals, fuck off Troy. Your Cowboys can't hold our jocks. I knew this would happen, obviously you didn't Troy. Dickhead.

That fag Troy WOULD like to hold :our: jocks, wouldn't he?

Hopefully my 2nd team will win today too.

I'll send that tramp mine. I'm sure he'll take a big whiff and smell my Arizona Cardinal goodness.

What do Cowboys fans and Eagles fans have in common?

Their teams lost to MY ARIZONA CARDINALS.

Cowboys: 5 SB rings

Cards + eglets: 0 SB rings


So I'm not even gonna listen to that shit for at least 5 more years.

Cowboys: 5 SB rings

Cards + eglets: 0 SB rings

How many SB appearences since 96?

Not as many as MY CARDINALS.

Cowboys: 5 SB rings

Cards + eglets: 0 SB rings


So I'm not even gonna listen to that shit for at least 5 more years.

WHOAH!!! WHOAH!!!

You better add about 7 superbowls to the Cardinals column, cause we're about to TAKEOVER!

Time to watch some Ravens football. Not because I'm really a Baltimore fan and I'm just joking around when I say I'm a Cards fan, but because there's nothing else on!

This should be a real hard hittin som bitch.

MANHOOD FOOTBALL

Rolle out...I knew that.

Ravens deferred. Interesting. Don't see that too often in the NFL.

This game may require some whiskey.

What is it almost 7pm back there? and cold as hell.

This is the kind of game you say a prayer before, even if you're not religious.

Time to watch some Ravens football. Not because I'm really a Baltimore fan and I'm just joking around when I say I'm a Cards fan, but because there's nothing else on!

Well, we do have to scout them.

LETS GET IT ON!

O-line held up really well there. Hope that's not a sign or something.

...Not that I care or anything, since I'm a Cards fan.

I said they'd come out throwing it. My analysis is so :cogent:.

Now we're watching the team that will actually win the SB.

Yea, I think today is the last GOOD day of football for the year.

3 points might be way too much for the Ravens offense.

Should we all get Cardinal's unity avatars? I say yes.

^ Yep.

lol, Baltimore has no chance in this one. ARI beating PIT is destined to be.

Whisenhunt is licking his chops with the chance to play his old team. He'll know how to exploit that D.

This one's over.

Santonio = play maker

So how about those Cardinals unity avs?

Glenn's disappointed there was no Santonio dick slip there.

Why do these asshole refs have run all the way to the middle of the field, wasting our time, to give the call?

There are cameras everywhere.

There are prolly cameras up their assess too. Just get your head out from underneath the hood and make the call dumbass.

Pkshh!

Enough of this Guitar Hero shit. I've never played the game and I'm already tired of it.

My team today is 'whichever team is behind'

Go Ravens!

Get a score here.

That wasn't Cool Joe. Throw it!

I want to shoot myself in the head every time I watch this offense.

lol

Leonhard's having some kind of playoffs.

Ray with a play, the first of the day....Ray's not gay.

^ You're a poet and didn't even know it.

COME ON YOU FUCKERS DO SOMETHING. Tie this bitch up or something.

Leftwich warming up. Yes!!

Oh for fucksake...thats weak

Ravens 3rd down effort ^

Get me a gun.

Thank God for 78 Left tackle pushing him forward for the first.

Thank God for guns.

Thank God for 78 Left tackle pushing him forward for the first.

Not :cogent:

Throw the damn ball. That's how you can move it on this D.

I bet if LeBron really did play for the Browns they'd let him put his first name on his jersey.

They aren't lookin sharp today running the ball.

Ocho would not like that.

Eglets & Cards trophy case:

http://www.emmitt22.com/gifs/empty-case.jpg

Oh my fucking God.

Game over.

Letting them hang around too long, it should be 21-0 right now.

Worst replay overturn ever, btw.

I sure hope "my" (insert winning team's name here) can pull this out!

re: Cardinals

I knew WE could do it.

http://www.cowboys-video.com/images/cowboys_smilies/trophy_iggles.gif

Letting them hang around too long, it should be 21-0 right now.

Worst replay overturn ever, btw.

It was over before it began. You can't fuck with destiny.

YEAH! JUST YOU WAIT! :we: are gonna run it down your throats and it'll be 13-3 before you know it.

I've had about 6 beers too many, gonna regret this in the morn.

I don't drink, but I could use a couple or 20 right now.

WTF was the hold up? Fuck.

Seems like McGahee is the only one that has touched the ball (besides Flaccid).

Clayton and Mason have touched it.They just didn't catch it.

McGAYhee again

Not Cool Joe

If Hines Ward is seriously hurt, that's big trouble.

Especially with how shitty the O-line is.

It's fine.

13 points is more than enough.

:we: need another turnover here.

So how 'bout those Cards?

So how 'bout those Cards?

America's team?

:usa:

I fucking hate KFC. I think I'm the only one.

I'm starting to like the Flaccid nickname. I like the kid, but I'm just a little mad right now.

Why? I don't know. My Cards are going to the SB, after all! While UxKa continues to live in the 90s.

No challenges now. lol

Nice to see my fav UW player doin some good things in this game. Mebe someday I can sell his autographed picture for some cash.

He's been a pretty good player for :us:.

I love what pessimism leads to.

I'm going to adopt this as my "gimmick"

Yeesh, it took about 2 hours just to play this 1st half.

I just ate one of the better burgers I've had in a long time.

GO RAVENS!

Wow, way to fucking fuck yourself you fucking fucks.

Nice acting job.

Yeesh, it took about 2 hours just to play this 2nd half.

Its still the 1st half. You prolly meant the 2nd quarter.

You see, football is divided into quarters...and there are...you guessed it...4 of them.

ok, I'll go away now.

Oh shit someone got thumped

Sweed dropped Ivy like he was a TD pass.

That was that Sheed...that just dropped the pass?

Another injury. The Ravens will be playing their punter at CB in the 2nd half.

Sweed makin amends

I can honestly say that this is one of the worst football games I've seen in a while (at least thus far).

I don't remember the last time I've seen an #84 lining up at DE. But you gotta step up when your team is injured.

BTW...he looked like he got held on the play to me.

Holy shit. Talk about an eyesore. I am amazed it's only a 6 point game.

WTF do you need 6 analysts for? Seriously.

Just remember :our: Cards won

WTF do you need 6 analysts for? Seriously.

The network likes 5 peeps laughing at 1's lame ass jokes.

The network likes 5 peeps laughing at 1's lame ass jokes.

lol

I admit, sometimes I just bitch because I like to. But WTF...come on.

It isn't even just CBS either. It's Fox, it's NBC, it's ESPN.

Garth Brooks = fuckin' Lib? Go figure.

Flacco is butt today.

I'm thinking this one ends at around 12:40 or so.

http://www.cowboys-video.com/images/cowboys_smilies/trophy_iggles.gif

LOL

Do NFC Championships go in trophy cases? If so, they have 2 (I think) in there.

Wow, great call.:/

Do NFC Championships go in trophy cases? If so, they have 2 (I think) in there.

Those don't count.

:little tony:

What will count: our Cardinals' SB trophy.

Destiny.

What do the Eagles call the Super Bowl? Vacation

Stolen joke from earlier today

Okay, somebody's gotta say it: Ray is fat.

MCCLAIN....FINALLY

Second coming of Ben Roethlisberger my ass.

Speaking of ass, Flacco is beyond ass tonight.

Did you see that gut?


Pkshh!

Yea, but after a long day at the office...Pkshh is pretty damn good.

Suggs!
