Stroll down the NFL Boulevard
Week 16
Well here it is, Week 16 and with all the craziness in the air we hope to show you the way to the playoffs baby. This week most everyone played, or at least was on the schedule to play, but whether they or not we can decide. This time of year reminds us of family and friends, presents and food. Lots of dinners, and food to eat, did we mention that already? Well there are lots of places to go and eat cakes, and pies and lots to feast on. Did we mention that everyone eats a lot during this time of year? In case we didn’t then let us mention it now, we did some eating this holiday season. And we still have New Years to go. So before we pop the button on another pair of jeans, Expo will you please kick it?
After last week’s attempt to be the first one to 13 wins the Atlanta Falldowns had another shot at it. This week they invaded the Loins’ home turf for a little peek-a-boo party and on Saturday no less. The NFL just can’t give up that Sunday’s and Monday’s are not the only days for Pro football. They shove Thursday’s and now Saturday’s on us? It is hard to watch them all. And with it only being on the NFL Network, you know the one that less than 25% of America gets then it is even harder. But back to the game, the Falldowns were looking to be the first team to 13 wins and what better place to get it than Detroit? The Loins have not had a great season, they have not had a good season, and they have not even had an average season. Well maybe an average season by their standards. You know the standard right? Start off the season with a couple of wins, then an extended period, where people don’t understand what you are doing, and why with the talent you have you aren’t winning more then you get to Thanksgiving and can’t win at home then on a short week and people begin to talk about next year and you finally agree that next year is going to be different, just like last year was going to be different than this year and so on and so on…
Final Score the Falldowns 31 the Loins 18. Our daddy always told us kids, sometimes the more things change, the more they stay the same.
Up next we check in on the greatest running back this season, Adrian Peterson. He had 25 carries for a total of 86 yards. 86 yards? Hey Expo why so few yards this week? Did Houston tackle him where others had not? So you are telling me that if he gets tackled his yard totals go down? How strange?? Well he had 86 yards with a long of 21 yards so he actually had 24 carries for 65 yards a great total if you were in Detroit. Since Houston couldn’t be the first to 13 wins they decided to stink it up.
Final Score the Viqueens 23 the Texans 6. The Texans are still the greatest team in Texas.
Oh how the mighty have fallen. It is now time to get to the Buccan game. The Ewes came to Tampa Bay with winning on their mind, and why not the Buccaneers had lost their last four games. And the Ewes were trying to get to an even record. Since this game will probably decide the team with the seventh draft pick in next year’s draft, we will give it all the respect a game like this should have.
Final Score the Ewes 28 the Bucs 13. That is all the respect these 2 teams deserve.
Okay first let us say that the NFC East is up for grabs this week. There are 3 teams involved. The one team that is not involved in the discussion is the Philadelphia Beagles, and as we know that falls directly on Andy Reid’s big pumpkin head. He is the one with the decision to play at Quarterback or not play at quarterback. Nick Foles is trying to show everyone why he is a Quarterback in this league. But we feel that if he is a quarterback in the league he belongs in Ari-freaking-zona. That group of spares they have out there is where it seems that he would be the best fit. But with that said the Deadskins got a chance to put another nail in the coffin of Andy Reid, and they did just that. RG3 let his Cousin take over for a while but he is back and ready to go. And he showed it with 198 yards passing. He did just enough to win, and that is all you ask for right?
Final score the Deadskins 27 the Beagles 20. Well the Deadskins won what did the rest of the NFC Contenders do?
The Cowgirls invited the New Orleans Aints to town under the guise of showing them an awful time. But when you are guest of the Cowgirls how can you have a bad time? This looked more like a Quarterback Challenge than a game. As Drew Brees threw for 446 yards on 37 of 53 attempts, and Toni Romo had 416 yards passing on 26 of 43 attempts. And with 4:45 to play and the Cowgirls down 14 points Toni lead them on 2 scoring drives one of 80 and one of 64 yards respectively. So when the Aints couldn’t guess the coin flip, you know heads or tails. The Cowgirl faithful knew that their team would drive the ball down the Aints throat and score a third touchdown and walk off winners of the game. But alas after the kickoff to start over time the Toni Romo of the first 55 minutes of the game showed up, and he completed 2 passes to Jason Witten and watched DeMarco Murray slam his head against the brick wall known as the New Orleans defensive sieve/line. Then Toni did something he has done for his entire career, he watched a pass to his left, floated on the wind like the wings of a dove and crash to the ground like the Hindenburg.
Final Score the Aints 34 the Cowgirls 31. Brees on the other hand guided his team to victory.
In this crazy NFL all the Colts had to do to get in the playoffs was win. Well the Kansas City Chefs had other things on their minds on Sunday. They had a three headed coin they were flipping to see who was better, Jamaal Charles, Peyton Hillis, and Brady Quinn? But before we get into this discussion one thing, Expo the Peyton we are talking about is not Manning right? Hillis, is that white guy from Cleveland? Okay just checking. Okay Charles had 226 yards rushing and scored a touchdown, but did have a fumble. Quinn was 10 of 22 for 162 yards, but had 2 interceptions. Then we turn our attention to Hillis, he had 101 yards rushing. Well after a long debate and several votes from our panel of experts, it was brought to our attention that no one cared about the Chefs.
Final Score the Colts 27 the Chefs 20. That was a huge waste of time, a lot like this game was.
Is it just us or have the New England patriots leaned some self restraint? But stats don’t lie. And the Pats let Danny Woodhead and Brandon Bolden run the ball 8 times, for a total of 10 yards, if that isn’t restraint we don’t know what that is. But what this game came down is that one team is New England and the other is Jacksonville.
Final score the Pats 23 the Jags 16. That is it. One team was the Jaguars, Enough said.
With everything on the line and playing at home this team put up 10 whole points. Not in the first quarter, not in the first half, but in the whole game. 10 whole freaking points. At 7-5 they were on their way to the playoffs, but now with 3 straight losses they are looking to finish the season off with a win. So when Cincinnati lined up for a field goal with 4 seconds to go it seems that Squealers would lose again.
Final Score the Bungels 13 the Squealers 10. So there you go. But at least someone got a nap this week.
We could just pass this game as neither one of these teams are going anywhere. But we will move forward, and tell you that for the second consecutive week REGGIE BUSH had more than 100 in rushing and receiving. Is that amazing? Well maybe not but it was the most interesting thing about this game.
Final Score the Bills 10 the Dolphins 24 there was nothing else interesting in this game.
It is a shame that this game had to be on the schedule. But it did give us a couple of things. One being the chance to watch the “polish punisher” Sebastian Janikowski kick 2 more field goals. Where would they be without this phenom? After the game, that Roger Godell was in attendance, he went to the losing locker room and locked the door so no one could get in or out. After an eloquent speech that consisted of some rather choice words for team, he presented them trophy of gold. That is right you guessed it. This week’s Birth canal team of the week is the Oakland Raiders. Just suck baby!!!
Final score the Raiders 6 the Panther 17 Godell had to attend this game as punishment for allowing the schedule maker to post this game on the schedule.
Sometime life is not fair. And this was not fair at all. If the Titans were going to win this game they would have needed Gerry Bertier and Julius Campbell, along with Ronnie “Sunshine” Bass. But they didn’t have anyone like that, so they came to Green Bay and got a discount double check. Then took a tour of Mr. Rogers’s neighborhood. If this sounds embarrassing then you have not seen the final Score.
Final Score the Titans 7 the Packers 55. We thing the Titans might have quit a couple of weeks early…
Okay so up next we didn’t find anything meaningful or thought provoking about this next game. So in that vein we offer up…
Final Score the Chargers 27 the JETS 17. Really???
The White Bronco is strong in its own meadow. It continues to get stronger as the night turns to day and the day turns back to night. The White Bronco shows no fear; he shows no Joy he shows no emotion. He lives his days with one rule “Family is number one and his rule over family is absolute.” So much so that elders have relinquished power to the White Bronco. After the game Manning was at his locker when a tall thin man walked towards him, this was troubling to him as the man almost always brought bad news. “So. What did you find out?” he asked. Peyton responded “Nothing yet, I have not opened the gift it is only Dec 23rd. We have to wait a couple more days.” “Your life may never be the same if you don’t open the package.” After which the man walks away only to stop at the door turn and then gave Peyton a nod and with a crackling voice the man says “My time is done here. I can do nothing more for you.” Peyton Nodded and Acknowledged the fact that he was on his own again. Alone, right where he has always been.
Final Score The Browns 12 the Broncos 34. Peyton Manning Alone? We don’t think so.
My oh my. This game had nothing that resembled a NFL game. Except poor play. We find 15 first downs for team appalling. This game had 17 punts for God’s sake. Nothing like watching one team punt the ball to the other. That makes for some real exciting play. Jay Cutler was the closest thing to a quarterback in the game, and Ari-Freaking-zona looks like they found their quarterback in a crackerjack box. Which might explains the sticky feeling we get when watching them play.
Final Score Da Bears 28 to Cardinals 13. We think we just threw up in our mouths talking about this game.
Were it not for the fact that the GIANTS needed this game to keep pace with the Deadskins then this would have been a no brainier for the biggest let down in the history of the world. This game was Worse than that the Mayan end of the world Fiasco from the 21st. Expo did you stock up on Can goods, and Water thinking that the world was going to end? Yea us too. Now what are we going to do with all this cream corn? After a poor performance that cost his team a chance at the division title and a playoff spot. Ellie was standing beside his locker when that familiar old ring came from the top of his locker. A sly little smile came across his face as he heard the ring tone. “Stand by your Man” “Hey Mom. How are you? No Mom, I didn’t send a package to Peyton. Why don’t you believe me? Why would I send him a package? Maybe you sent a package to him and forgot? Maybe it was from someone else, like another family member?” After arguing a short time Ellie’s face got real red and his vice began to tremble. “Mom think about what you saying. That can’t be true. it just can’t be true.” His eyes squeezed shut so tight even a tear could not escape. But that didn’t stop one from trying.
Final Score the GIANTS 14 the Ravens 33. What did Ellie’s mother Confess??
Finally, the Flex Game of the week, the Shehawks are in the playoffs and now they just have to continue their winning ways. Is there going to be anyone that can take this team off its feet? Is there anyone who can stand up to their defense? Can anyone play better than Russell Wilson? Anyone? What we need is a savior. We need someone to save us from the Shehawks. Save us from the northwest. Save us from Seattle. Who will it be?
Final Score the 49ers 13 the Shehawks 42. What we need is a superhero!!!
Well that will do it for us this week. We hope that ole Santie Claus was as good to you as he was to us. We must have been very good this year… just one more week in the season and let’s see what happens.
And remember like we always say…
Here I am waiting, I'll have to leave soon
Why am I, holding on?
We knew this day would come, we knew it all along
How did it, come so fast?
This is our last night but it's late
And I'm trying not to sleep
Cause I know, when I wake, I will have to slip away
And when the daylight comes I'll have to go
But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close
Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own
But tonight I need to hold you so close
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh-woah
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh-woah
Here I am staring at your perfection
In my arms, so beautiful
The sky is getting back the stars are burning out
Somebody slow it down
This is way too hard, cause I know
When the sun comes up, I will leave
This is my last glance that will soon be memory
And when the daylight comes I'll have to go
But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close
Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own
But tonight I need to hold you so close
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh-woah
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh-woah
I never wanted to stop because I don't wanna start all over, start all over
I was afraid of the dark but now it's all that I want, all that I want, all that I want
And when the daylight comes I'll have to go
But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close
Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own
But tonight I need to hold you so close
And when the daylight comes I'll have to go
But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close
Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own
But tonight I need to hold you so close
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh-woah
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh-woah
Oh-woah (yeah), oh-woah (yeah), oh-woah (yeah)
Oh-woah (yeah), oh-woah (yeah), oh-woah!
