Stroll Down NFL Boulevard 2008 Week 11

Stroll down the NFL Boulevard week 11 2008

Here we are 11 weeks into the season and we find that everyone now has 10 games under their belt. First up lets talk about the teams that are off this week, Where is that list? Huh nope not there, nope that is not it either, Ah here it is, it was right there, in the next to the last place we looked because we keep looking after we found it. Okay well huh no one was off this week huh? Well then we guess that means that everyone played this week so let’s get it started. Expo are you ready? Expo? Expo? God good help is hard to fine.

First up we head to Thursday? Huh okay Thursday? Oh yea this is the time of the year when the NFL plays a game on its own Network. The NFL Network is on in about 35 % of the country, which is still better than a New Orleans Saints game on the road. In this tough AFC battle the New York Bretts played against the New England Patriots for first place in the East. This game actually went to overtime, did anyone see? Favre was 26 of 33 for 258 yards we guess that is good, but Matt Cassel was 30 of 51 for 400 yards.
Final Score the Jets 34 the Pats 31. This reminds us of the skeleton of a whale.

First up on Sunday let’s go to the bottom. For the first time in a long time we find the bottom in Green Bay Wisconsin. Lovey Smith came to town with his Bears, but when they got off the bus they looked as if they had turned into the Yogi Yahooeys. Are these the Bears that went to the Super Bowl? Or are these the Bears that get beat by the Scooby Doobies? These are looking more like the Bears that just mill around in the stream not sure what to do get a fish so they just splash around. Oh look, there is Bear in the Fox River, lets see what he does. Wow he slapped a fish right out to us, hey is that fish talking? What did it just say? Yes we will keep it to ourselves. The Birth Canal Team of the week is the Chicago Bears? Okay we will not tell any one.
Final Score Da Bears 3 Da Packers 37 A Talking Fish? Huh…

Next let talk about the Crappy game on CBS, and for that we head to the Meadowlands; we had the pleasure of watching this game. The Delaware Destroyer Joe Flacco didn’t have a good game as he was 20 of 33 for 164 yards, but Ellie had the game of his life, we don’t think that anything, even his winning the Superbowl can compare to his stats this week. Let’s take a look and go inside the numbers. He was 13 for 23 for 153 yards. Wow we guess he was relying on the running game.
The Ravens 10 the Giants 30. Wow this was a colossal bore of a game.

Okay so next we find the game that will tell us if the fury a Falcon is equal to that of a Bronco. This game was between two teams evenly matched let’s take a look. One team had 20 first downs and the other had 19 one team had 332 yards of offense and the other had 364 one team had 3 punts the other had only 2. And one team had 6 penalties while the other team had 5. Well this game could have been decided by a flip of a coin at the fifty. How about the best two out of three?
Final Score the Bronco’s 24 the Falldowns 20. How about the best 3 out of 5?

Next we will talk about the game in Indianapolis. The Houston Texans went all the way up to Indiana to play the Colts and the Colts were nice hosts in the first quarter. After that they turned up the Heat and burned the Sage Rosenfels. Matt Schuab showed us why he is best left on the sidelines during this season as he didn’t play again. Schuab is out with the dreaded left knee injury. Houston you have a problem. And it starts with Quarterback play.
Final Score the Texans 27 the Colts 33. Three in a row for the Colts not bad…

Next we travel down to Tuna Cakesville also known as Miami. If the Dolphins are really getting better then why are they struggling with the Raiders? They should not struggle with the freakin’ Raiders. We mean come on. How bad do you have to be to kick a game winning field goal with :35 seconds to go on the clock? Well we guess you have to be 6 – 4 and in second place of the AFC East bad. We are almost tired of making jokes about Al Davis, but here goes… How many owners does it take to kill a Superbowl team in 4 years? Just one if it is Al Davis in a Valor sweat suit.
Final Score the Raiders 15 the Dolphins 17. Tuna Cakes will not be happy…

Okay and we have gotten so upset about this next game that we can hardly say anything about. We guess the one thing we can say is what the hell? And why does Detroit play a game every week. They are just going to lose.
Final Score the Lions 22 the Panthers 31. Guess the Panther is the King of the Jungle now.

Looking back to last year the Chiefs they were 4 – 12 not winning a game after October 21. This year they are 1 and 9 after not winning a game since September, and Herm Edwards still has his job. This has gotten so bad we can’t even make a joke about it any longer, this is just sad.
Final score the S-Aints 30 the Chiefs 20. This could have been better but Megan Fox wasn’t there.

Up next we head to the Buccan game in Tampa Bay. The Viqueens came, played, and lost just like they have before. With the game on the line in the fourth quarter the very best that the Viqueens could muster was…0 yards, that is ZERO yards. How do they do that with the leading rusher in the NFL this year? Adrian Peterson had a good game with 19 carries for 85 yards. Not too bad except that when the game was on the line he had 0 carries for 0 yards. Okay in the Second half Peterson had 6 carries for 14 yards, which means that in the first half he had 13 carries for 71 yards very good and the Viqueens lead 13 to 6. But like Loud mouth Eric says this game is 60 minutes or 4 quarters of 15 minutes each. Jeff Garcia was heard saying “Just keep giving me the Buccan ball” and John Gruden just shook his head.
Final score the Viqueens 13 the Buccaneers 19. Why didn’t AP get the ball more?

Next we will talk about the Crappy game on Fox, so let’s go out to the Bay of San Francisco and find the transformation of the 49ers. Now that San Francisco is starting to turn we can start to see a change. Well they didn’t score in every quarter, they didn’t win the first down battle, and they lost the total yards situation. Then they had more punts and penalties. They lost the time of possession as well. But as the clock was running out in the fourth quarter you could hear Head Coach Mike Singletary singing, “Watermelon, Watermelon, Watermelon Rhine, look on the Score board and see who’s behind.” The more things change the more they stay the same.
Final Score the Ewes 16 the 49ers 35. Nice Cheer coach…

Okay well this next game just baffles us. The Beagles went into the home of the Bungels for what they thought would be an easy win. But with 5:18 left in the game Philly kicked a field goal to tie the game. Then it was a punt-fest. Hey do you know what they say about a tie in football? They say it is like kissing your sister. Didn’t everyone know that? We guess that Donovan McNabb didn’t know that because he thought that game would just continue until someone scored. But let us tell you that you don’t score by kissing your sister unless you live in Arkansas or West Virginia.
Final Score the Beagles 13 the Bungels 13. Or maybe Mississippi???

Up next we find the game in Seattle. Poor Seattle they have lost more games this year than they have in the last two years. This is no way to send your coach into retirement. Hiking up you skirt is no way to show people what you are made of. Trust us we have seen that this year, everyone has seen that this year. Is Coach Mike Holmgren even going to meetings? It doesn’t look like to us. Well we guess that the Freaking Cardinals are going to the playoffs. Holy Crap.
Final Score the Cardinals 26 the Shehawks 20. Damn it the Cardinals are in the playoffs.

Well now it is time to remember the Titans. This week the Titans were challenged by the Jaguars. The Jaguars? Okay, well they made the playoffs last year and did pretty well. This year however they are out of the playoffs. It would take a Miracle. And no not that horse from the “History of the world part 1” movie, Just a quick little note to Jack Del Rio Jaguars head coach. Good Lord you have a team down 14 to 3 and you let them up? You could have been the team that knocked off the undefeated Titans but you ended up just being the next team to lose.
Final Score the Titans 24 the Jags 14. Well let’s see what happens next week.

And lastly on Sunday we find the Chargers have come to Pittsburg. This game was typical Steeler football. Hold the ball until the other team falls asleep then score to win. We are not sure why but the Chargers just can’t get the job done with their offense right now. Now we know that Norv Turner has scored in the past, and he will probably score again in the future but right now it doesn’t look like he could score with his sister in Arkansas.
Final Score the Chargers 10 the Steelers 11. Or Alabama, or Louisiana.

And now we will talk about the Sunday night game. The Cowboys went to Washington, like the new President Elect, with Tony Romo and Terrance Newman to inflict a little change. The Cowboys did some things different, they won. Tony Romo used his Lego Thumb instead of his broken pinky to throw a touchdown. With game still in question in the fourth Quarter Marion the Barbarian took over the game. With 66 yards in the fourth quarter he finished the game strong. After the game Coach Wade Phillips said he talked to Marion just before his last play from Scrimmage and with a wink and nod to the invisible cameraman Marion told his coach it is what it is Lesbian. Then went out and got the first down.
Final Score the Cowboys 14 the Deadskins 10. Hell for the Deadskins Hell for the Deadskins.

And finally on Monday night The Browns came to Buffalo with nothing short of win on their mind. And thank God Brady Quinn got the start he had such a wonderful game that even Ellie Manning would be proud. His stats ended 14 completions on 36 attempts for a total of 185 yards. Wow that is 7 completions per half, at least he is even. Trent Edwards would have liked those numbers. But he had 3 interceptions, meaning that he threw 3 passes to the other team. Not good, just so you know. Hey Romeo you had better thank your lucky stars that you have kicker Phil Dawson as he practically won the game for you… how often does a kicker score 17 points in game?
Final Score Browns 29 the Bills 27. Huh that would have beaten 12 other teams this week.

Well we have come to the end of another week and we sure hope you enjoy this as much as we have putting it together. Hey does anyone else hate those black pants that the Referees wear now that it has gotten cold?

And remember like we always say….


I got a little black book with my poems in.
Got a bag, got a toothbrush and a comb.
When Im a good dog they sometimes throw me a bone.
I got elastic bands keeping my shoes on.
Got those swollen hands blues.
Got thirteen channels of shit on the tv to choose from.
I got electric light,
And I got second sight.
Got amazing powers of observation.
And that is how I know,
When I try to get through,
On the telephone to you,
Therell be nobody home.

I got the obligatory hendrix perm,
And the inevitable pinhole burns,
All down the front of my favorite satin shirt.
I got nicotine stains on my fingers.
I got a silver spoon on a chain.
Got a grand piano to prop up my mortal remains.
Ive got wild, staring eyes.
And I got a strong urge to fly,
But I got nowhere to fly to (-- fly to... fly to... fly to...).
Ooooo babe,When I pick up the phone,
Theres still nobody home.

I got a pair of gohill boots,
And I got fading roots
