Possibly.

#302

The QB formerly known as Nicky Franchise could be back for the last 2 games of the regular season, but that’s a best case scenario. Unless Sanchise totally craps the bed, don’t expect to see Foles start as an Eagle again in his career. Foles was never Chip’s guy. Sanchise is Chip’s guy and will most likely get a 2 year extension to be the transition to whomever the Eagles can draft in the 2nd round this year.

^ Agree with you that Sanchez is Chip’s guy. Foles’ injury was a blessing for Chip.

Sanchez has never had so many offensive weapons in his NFL career. Mccoy, Sproles, MacLin and 5 NFL caliber tight ends.

I just thought about it. The Dolphins are playing the Bills tonight. Between the two of them, they have 90 men suiting up, and I can only name one of them off the top of my head. (Ryan Tannehill) Just shows how much I follow the AFC.

#306

We just played the Bills last week and I can’t think of any besides Orton. Although I should know their defensive front seven. They are really good.

#307

I looked at the matchups in my fantasy league, and only 2 people have a player going tonight. So you’re not the only one.

The Falcons are now 1st in their division with a 4-6 record. Meanwhile, in the AFC North, every team is over .500.

#310

sanchize came back to earth

#311

the cardinals could be first team to have home field throught the playoffs and super bowl

#312

With their wins vs the Broncos and Colts, you’re going to have to go through Foxboro to make it out of the AFC.

#313

That division is horrible.

#314
#315

It was a good day for America’s Team, though. Everybody in the NFC East lost! (Dallas had a bye.)

BTW–I stumbled upon maybe the best football commentary I’ve ever seen. Go to ESPN and search for “Tuesday Morning Quarterback” written by a guy named Gregg Eastbrook.

#316

I can’t wait to listen to Philly sports talk radio on my way home tonight.

#317

is RG III the best lockdown QB in the NFL?

#318

J.J. Watt now has as many offensive touchdowns on the season as Philadelphia Eagles running back LeSean McCoy.

#319

^ But hey, Shady is the best RB in the league. I know because he said so.

#320

Speaking of…

Lagarrette Blount (Steelers RB) apparently didn’t get a single carry last night. In fact, in the past three games, he has five carries for zero yards. So last night, he just decided to leave. He was already dressed by the time the rest of the team came in from the game.

He tried to get on the bus early, but was stopped by assistant coach Joey Porter (the same Joey Porter that used to be a beast on the Steeler’s defense), who forced him back into the locker room.

.Apparently he’s been an “internal problem” for over a month, and at least one teammate thought they should have left him in Nashville.

He was released today.
