Yep if you have ever been to a game at the Vet, or even the current stadium, you would clearly understand how true this is.

@derivative666:

Riley Cooper wow!!! Eagles 1st possession touchdown of the season

That was a sick catch!

I agree. That was one of the best catches this season.

On a side note, so many concussion with QB's this week. Ironic how the rules were suppose to reduce this from happening.  (American)Football is football.

[bagley920]

Injuries, including head injuries, are going to occur, but the 3 big ones this weekend will certainly stir up the conversation again

Bottom line, these are big boys, and big boys play hard

The only questionable one was the hit on Cutler

[J-IV]

Oh no doubt Dobbins is going to get fined with that hit. The others were just unfortunate.

I agree with you though, Bagley. They are big boys and it's all part of the game.

can't wait for our boys to destroy new orleans on sunday

[thomasnunnally]

How bout dem Eagles!!!

[J-IV]

Playoffs are almost here. Lets give this thread some action!

Playoff hopes/predictions?

Best rookie QB this year?

[Chris]

After the absolute ass kicking the Patriots laid down on the Texans, I have serious concerns about Houston's prospects in the playoffs.  The mood here is significantly more subdued than it was last week…

[DougNg]

Did anyone see the Seattle/Arizona game last week? Did the Cards even show up?!?

[J-IV]

Chris, the Houstons are doing surprisingly well. Tom Brady is known for giving an ass kicking during the colder months. Lets see how he fairs when the WestCoast comes to his backyard. I'm actually really looking forward to this game. I want to see how the Niners defense fairs with an elite QB.

And Doug, when do the Cards ever show up? (excluding the KurtWarner era)

[thomasnunnally]

@DougNg:

According to Larry Fitzgerald's father, they have quit.

[DougNg]

Yeah…but 58-0...jeez

@J-IV:

Chris, the Houstons are doing surprisingly well.

Oh I know; they are genuinely a good team and have real potential, if they can get a good run going and don't have too many bad breaks.  But people here in Houston were starting to get hyperbolic and the Monday night game showed that the team still has some work to do before they can be considered elite.

Oh, and the fact that Kurt Warner could make the Cardinals a legitimate winning team is the best argument ever for calling him a Hall of Fame quality quarterback.  That is an organization with hopeless failure coded into its DNA.

Another +1 for the NY Football Giants –- Go Big Blue!

[J-IV]

Yeah, the NY Giants did great against the Falcons

Yup I came here to brag. I hope this game silenced any of you doubters of SF's playoff ability this year. They just beat arguable the best QB in the league.

And I can't talk too much trash about the Giants until we get our rematch. If you guys make it that far..::)

GO 49ERS!!!

[seanocono]

^Let's see how you do next week in Seattle.  Russell Wilson is the real deal.

[J-IV]

Aldon and Justin Smith like "real deal" QB's.

[seanocono]

Like Sam Bradford?
