If that is an example of what you call not using logic and common sense, then you're a bunch of idiots...
Now this is actually a logical (even if wrong) statement.
wow, you have low standards for him.

Well I didnt really mean to use the ignore function, more just pretend that it didnt happen and move on.
i know what you meant, but i have to respond to everyone, even this guy or girl, whatever he/she is.

RE: Titans are overrated?
Hey swoosh I heard Howie Long on the pregame show say that no team has ever won the superbowl after losing 3 of its last 4 games...are you worried?
I guess the good news is there arent really any other scary teams in the NFC. You all already took care of Carolina and showed their run defense to be very suspect. Im sure you will probably be worried about the cowboys if they end up getting in, but honestly I wouldnt be, they stink. Honestly If I were you the team I would be concerned about is Atlanta they have flown under the radar all season but they have a really good team on offense and Matt Ryan even though he is a rookie doesnt seem like the type that would be rattled by your pass rush.

Well, yeah but the guy is a moron, I mean I already diffused his point about Tennessee and the Giants earlier but once again I guess he chose to ignore the facts completely.

I ignored the facts due to the fact that Tennessee is going to end up in the Super Bowl, whether you like it or not...

RE: Titans are overrated?
You're a moron it has nothing to do with what I like.
I actually like Tennessee and I will probably be rooting for them in the playoff, Im one of the few people on the planet who actually likes Kerry Collins despite his flaws as a person and a QB and the Titans play the kind of football that I like to watch. They have a monster defense and a great running game. Jeff Fisher is one of the best football coaches alive. I just think when push comes to shove they will lose to an experienced team like Indy who has been there a million times before.

actually i'm not worried at all. It's weird, but i feel like we accomplished exactly what we needed to today. Other than one big run, we stopped Peterson. On offense we had a great rushing attack without Jacobs and we also established Hixon for the 2nd straight game. He's really starting to come into his own. What's also good is that everyone has another two weeks to rest. This D-line hasn't been fully healthy in months. I look forward to seeing them when they are.
I don't really fear the falcons that much. they're good, but i think we're that much better. The panthers have me a little worried too. They're a dangerous team.
And it doesn't really look like the Cowgirls have much of a shot. They're getting killed at the half. As it stands right now we play the winner of the Falcons/Cardinals game, which is in Arizona. I really hope the Cards win, i'd love to play them in NY. We beat them in Arizona without Jacobs or Burress (who we obviously don't have).
Anyway, we'll see what happens.

Maybe the Eagles are the team to worry about, other than the freak loss to the skins last week they have been on fire.
I mean they only lost to the skins by a couple of inches really.
Dont sleep on the Falcons though.

LOL, i was thinking of that as i was typing. I was like, 'hmm, i didn't have anything to do with establishing Hixon in the passing game.'
But oh well, it's nice to feel like a part of a champion. We all like to feel like winners. Plus, any fan who had to sit through the years of danny kanell and kent graham, has earned something.

They wont be playing against Turner unless in some freak senario they end up playin each other in the NFC Championship game.
oh nm I guess you were talking about the Giants.
But either way nobody has stopped Michael Turner all year so I doubt the Gmen will stop him, but I guess that depends on your interpretation of stop.
Dude should be getting some MVP consideration but I doubt he will.

25 carries, 85 yards? i would say that defense did a good job if that happened. If jacobs put up those numbers i would say the defense did a good job on him.

The Titans didn't play any starters. The Colts only played 'em until they got a few records in the books, and then they sat. This game didn't matter either way...
