Anyone know what happened with Leonard? He was listed as the starter so I played him in FF and then he puts up a goose egg and the back up goes nuts.

I was rooting for the Giants but now coughlin and company can go to hell.

The gremlin panicked and threw the ball up in the air for grabs.

Rainey had a decent game last week and by decent I mean he broke off one or two long runs. That was all it took for Leonard to get benched.

I never did get excited about Hillis getting another chance, because I just KNEW beyond a shadow of a doubt that he would be tossed away. I felt bad when I saw how excited some of you got on here when the Giants grabbed him. Its extremely naive to think this fake ass circus called NFL is gonna tolerate a white RB.

I feel sorry for Hillis and hope he gets a shot elsewhere. I know he is getting screwed to a certain extent. However, Hillis has to take some of the blame for his situation. It was absolutely critical for him to get off to a quick start last week and be in prime gear to keep the starting position a fumble, and a carry for only one yard as a start gave Brown the only light he needed to take the starting job away.

absolutely. he had a terrible game last week, last face it. as a white runningback he should know he only gets one shot.

also, Jordan's Cameron moster season is completely derailed since Campbell took over, last week he had 1 catch for 4 yards, this week 6 for something like 30? and that was a breakthrough season at tight end for him, with sure fire bet on over 1k and 10 TDs plus he has tons of speed if he only has a QB capable of getting him a ball in some space!

on another note, Wilson just threw a pretty standard pass to his outside receiver and one of the commentators, i kid you know, said: "That's why, for me he's in the top three!"... top three of what? black quarterbacks, sure, QBs? give me a ****ing break. maybe top 50!

EDIT: as i was typing it i saw Brees throwing a TD to a white player, (TE Hill). now, that's a nice change

EDIT2: good to see JJ with 2 sacks and Jeff Tarpinian making 10 tackles for the Texans!

Christian Ponder with a great play action throw to wright for the touchdown against the Seahawks. Would love to see Ponder beat Wilson today! Need the Minnesota defence to show up!

Glad Phil Simms son, Chris Simms got in the game fpr the Jets and looked good. Who knows, Ryan might give him a shot to start next week.

Kaepernick doesn't even have the awareness to realize he's out of timeouts.

Sorry to disappoint you, but no he wont. Rex Ryan is clueless when it comes to picking and sticking with QB's, For gods sake, he allowed Sanchez to entertain us with his horrendous plays and buttfumbles for game after game, why wouldnt he do the same with G.Smiff.

Black DB picks Kaepernick off but fumbled the ball out the back of the endzone at the 1 yard line. Such blatant incompetence.

I took a look at Bobby Rainey's stats and if you take away the long run he averaged 4 YPC same as Leonard . Black running backs seem to find ways to throw in a long run at some point in the game to make average or bad running performances end up looking good or respectable overall. Adrian Peterson seems to do that all the time. The days of coaches appreciating John Riggins type of performances in which he would wear down the opposing defense, eat up the clock, with 3 -5 yard runs without a big run are long gone.

Krappernick looks awful, but the Saints have gifted them points with a muffed punt and the bozo fumble through the end zone. That is actually a nonsense rule, they should keep the ball at the spot of the fumble just like if you fumble out of bounds anywhere else. Very punitive rule.

Our favorite site, rotoworld, with their weekly Riley Cooper digs:
Riley Cooper caught three passes for 37 yards in Sunday's Week 11 win over the Redskins.
For once, Cooper actually played better than the stats show. He drew a big penalty in the first half, was tackled a few feet short of the goal-line in the second half and saw a team-high seven targets (the bromance with Nick Foles continues). Cooper will be a WR3 against the Cardinals when the Eagles come out of their bye in Week 13. Nov 17 - 6:28 PM

they are mildly positive (almost) in their blurb about Cooper.

in 5 minutes (RedZone) i have heard the announcers called Ponder super athletic and in Miami game, to balance that out, they said that Hartline is no threat to run by anyone.

The despicable Dan Dingleberrydorf just said that former track star Brian Hartline "isn't a threat to run by anybody."
