Derek Anderson gets ready to throw it ...somewhere...
Tonight's news is: The Arizona Crudinals can make ANYBODY look good.
Amassing a 51 passer rating and doing his usual array of passes to points unknown, Doormat All-Star Derek Anderson keeps the Crudinals under 10 first downs (and under 6 deep into the 3rd quarter), while the Crud's depleted defensive line lets forgotten man Brian Westbrook run amok for 439 yards (136) for the 0-4-9ers who now find themselves within a mere game of FIRST PLACE in the NFC Worst with a 4-7 record. Winners AND Losers!!
I missed the first half, so clue me in if there was any mention of how late in the season a division leader had a losing record, but I did catch the ESPN team debating whether a team with a losing record will be allowed into the playoffs.
Hey, YOU try being a Doormat AND win a Division sometime, mac. That's almost impossible to pull off. Of COURSE they deserve to be in the playoffs over a 9-7 team. Who cares about 9-7 teams? Oh, is that what the Cardinals were when Kurt Warner led them to the Super Bowl?
So? That only makes it that much more likely that after the 49ers take the division at 7-9 that they will make a run to at least the NFC Championship.
Place your BETS.
-Wacko
Watching the game and watching Hightower valiantly attempt to catch passes that were not even close to where he was running his pattern....well, I couldn't help but feel sorry for him. Just two years ago he was receiving for Kurt Warner, the best of the best, and now he is reduced to this. I hope he finds a new team or at least gets to pick their next QB draft. Maybe that guy from Arizona University?
ReplyDeleteThis was a pitiful performance by a team that should have at least been 9-7 this year. And I mean the 0-4-0ers. But they won anyway.
I will friendly wager right now $2 bucks that the winner of the NFC West makes it to the conference championship game and then loses by over 30 points.
And the NFC champion will be......da Bears. The team I picked to lose all year. Now to be one of the worst NFC champions ever.
It will be some party in the cellar during that game.
ya know, I watched the Bears demolish the Eagles yesterday, and they really wiped the turf with them for a while. Bears defense is a BEARS defense, far as I can tell. Vick couldn't get away from them. That's saying something.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, the following teams are now officially mathematically eliminated from the basement. I will post them in the standings later this week:
ReplyDeleteRavens, Steelers, Jets, Patriots, Bears (OMG), Falcons, and Saints.
These teams are barred from the basement for the remainder of the year. They will have to get their stale beer somewhere else.
Yeah, wackoworld, the Bears, I have to admit, have the usual, classic Bears defense. Tbey really punished the Eagles. Stooooopid offense or not, they are still the Monsters of the Midway. Come to think of it, the 1985 Superbowl win by the Bears was mostly defense too. Well, they did have Payton, but that was about it. Man, the really messed up the Patriots in that Superbowl. They looked, by the third quarter, like they just wanted to get off the field and nurse their wounds.
ReplyDeleteThat was a great year cause I went to a Superbowl party at an airport restaurant and had unrestricted access to hot dogs, Ruffles, and beer. My stomach still hurts when I think about it.
Just learned from Detroit writer Kowalski that Shaun Hill of Detroit Kittens missed practice today. Buzz is that he may be out as the starter.
