2010 Week 17

[Colonel_Reb]

Here are the coverage maps for today, as there is no Monday night game this week.

I'm looking forward to keeping up with the following games:

Steelers and Browns (hopefully Peyton has a better day, but I won't hold my breath thanks to the OC and line)
Vikings and Lions (will Toby get multiple carries?)
Dolphins and Patriots (how much will the White Patriot stars play?)
Chargers and Broncos (Tim Tebow anyone?)
Packers and Bears (go Packers!)
Titans and Colts (hopefully Blair White and Jacob Tamme do well)
Rams and Seahawks (I want to see the relatively White friendly Rams play for the first time this year)

The local Giants have to beat the Blackskins and have the Packers lose to get into the playoffs. Normally I would be following them very closely but I've lost interest in them in recent years.

As far as Tebow is concerned, he certainly looks like the Broncos quarterback of the future. He's clearly better than Orton and Quinn. I can see him developing into a top 10 quarterback in the league but not a top 5.

From Weenieworld:

Peyton Hillis (ribs) is active for Sunday's game against the Steelers. Hillis is showing his toughness, taking a painkilling injection Sunday morning so he can play in this meaningless game for the Browns. He's a risky fantasy option due to the possibility of in-game aggravation and the Steelers' mauling run defense. The Browns inactives: Third QB Jake Delhomme, WR Jordan Norwood, WR Demetrius Williams, WR Carlton Mitchell, DE Brian Sanford, DE Ko Quaye, NT Travis Ivey and DE Jayme Mitchell. Jan. 2 - 11:59 am et

 

[Don Wassall]

Kevin Kolb starts for the Eagles today. Riley Cooper should see lots of action as it's a meaningless game for Philly, which is locked into the #3seed in the NFC.

It's still pains me that I benched Hillis given his "questionable" status all week...my line-up was due to turn in at 10:00pm Friday Night....wish me luck...I have Woodhead starting in his place today...
he can bust a long play at any time!

I also started Jordy Nelson today vs Bears....was unable to take advantage of his big game last week...knew it was only a matter of time he would break a long one...if not duplicate another 80 yarder..maybe a couple of 50+ yd TD's!

 

[Don Wassall]

Hillis isn't starting to open the game; doesn't look good.

Edelman starting for Welker today.

Woodhead's first carry just went for 19 yards.

 

[whiteathlete33]

Afflete Steven Johnson fumbles and the Jets recover.

 

[Thrashen]

Welker and Branch are sitting today.

Woodhead with a great run already.

Gronkowski with his 10th TD catch.

Edelman with 2 big catches.Edited by: Thrashen

 

[whiteathlete33]

Chase Coffman with a reception. I believe that is the first one of his career.

 

[Don Wassall]

Hillis is in the game now, just got a first down.

 

[Freethinker]

Unfortunately, they just said Danny Woodhead has a head injury and his return is questionable.

 

[Jimmy Chitwood]

Cleveland noticeably improved with Hillis on the field. they marched right down to the 2 or 3 yard line, but then throw it on three consecutive snaps ... why not hand it to the Juggernaut? i know he's playing hurt, but c'mon.


and then the decision to kick a field goal from the 2 in such a meaningless game at home ... i mean, jeez! is Cleveland even trying to win?

[Don Wassall]

Brian Brohm is starting for the Bills.

 

[Jimmy Chitwood]

Hoyer is in for the Patriots, but Woodhead has not yet returned. i hope he's not seriously banged up.

 

[Jimmy Chitwood]

the dropoff from Brady to Hoyer is ... err ... considerable.

At least Bellichick finally got rid of the rotund, watermelon-grinning backup QB, Rohan Davey

.

 

[sport historian]

Cleveland, today at least, doesn't look like a very good team. I expect Holmgren to make a lot of changes.

 

[Jimmy Chitwood]

i've not yet seen Evan Moore on the field at all for Cleveland. i might have missed him,though ... is he injured? else why wouldn't their best receiving threat be out there? of course, this has been a question Cleveland fans (and informed, knowledgable football fans everywhere) should and have been asking all season.

good point! in fact, one of our CF smilies reminds me of ol' Rohan the Somalian refugee qb... -->

 

[Jimmy Chitwood]

Brady is back on the field for New England.

 

[Jimmy Chitwood]

Heath Miller scores for Cleveland. and Gronkowski is tearing it up for New England. it's nice to see our tight ends playing well early.

 

[snow]

Hopefully the head thing with Danny isn't serious and just precautionary.

 

[TwentyTwo]

Woodhead with head injury?? You gotta be kiddin' me...think I'm gonna be SICK!
