Another thing, whats the deal with Cato June? Some plays he looks like an All Pro then you look again he is getting run over and trampled on by Rudi Johnson. He so inconsistant from play to play I really don't get it. Maybe he just overpersues or something and that gets him out of tackling position, because he missed a bunch last night.

Could be confidence. 375 yards rushing against you will do that to a player.

So LOMO has torn cartilage in his rib cage? Done for the year? That breaks muh heart.

I have to say, on one hand I think that Rivers doesn't seem to have it "in him" to win the Superbowl. On the other hand, I think that Shottenheimer, historically one of the game's best, except when it comes to big games and blowing big leads... has grown. At 97 years old, Schottenheimer has learned that you can't sit on the ball at the end of the game, and now the talking heads of the Sports Media are saying that Marty needs to stop running up the score, and giving LT his record-breaking TD at the end of a blowout win??? What do they want from him?

It's better to go balls-out for 4 quarters and run over the opposing team even after the game is put away, than to risk losing the lead.

All the best teams with their inexperienced starters, if Peyton wasn't such a huge choke artist, I would love to see him and Brees in the superbowl, dueling it out. It would be like Brady/Delhomme, except that Brees is good while Delhomme was lucky, and Brees is actually better than ALL OF THE REST.

WHO DAT??
