Jose Toussen just became a fan of RAB on Facebook.
You’re welcome…..Planet Earth.
i too am a fan of rab on facebook
the giants redzone offfense is embarassing
Lawrence Tynes needs to be cut immediately.
Steve Hauschka is available.
Mike Vanderjact.
Nick Folk, too.
time to start Buehler.
Bueller……….Bueller………Bueller?
A classic.
Couldn’t be worse.
Remember when the Knicks were a good, fun and exciting team to watch? No? Neither does anyone else in the history of the world.
I remember when they were good in with Ewing, Mason, Starks etc. But they were neither fun nor exciting at that time.
atleast they’re only down by 5 against the Celtics
I’m going against AD this week, I appreciate Childress has Favre throwing TDs of 8, 3, and 7 yards
having
Winning in Philly is great. Losing in Green Bay is acceptable. Getting shut out against the Redskins at home is a disgrace.
Heh. It is pretty bad. I think the ‘Boys will win this game though.
I sure hope so. Offense can’t get it going and we are getting killed by Rock freaking Cartwright.
ugh. I hate Suisham
Not only are the Cowboys’ kickers not able to kick field goals, neither are their former ones.
Romo can’t lead late in the game drives.
I just double fist-pumped. Defense will stop them.
I’m confident but anything can happen in the game of football
Confidence level: 9
Congrats man!
7-3 and on top.
What an ugly, ugly win. I’ll take it anyway.
Confidence level: 93
Giants look like they’re well on their way to blowing another game.
Nah, they win this one.
So predictable…
Do they miss Phillips THIS much in the secondary?
And do they miss Spags this much?
Missed coverages, and no pressure from the D line
Now get it done, Falcons!!!
Ugh the Giants look like complete and utter garbage. Fuck this.
Manningham with the big catch… if Tynes didn’t suck, I’d be at confidence level 9 right now
Yeah, Hicks too. Luckily we wont the toss bc Atl would have scored in a most backbreaking of fashions.
LARRY! YAYYYY
Feagles was so happy.
Tynes is off my shit list – at least for this week
A must-win
Sheridan and the D need serious work
Tynes is off your shit list? Seriously? Because he made that short OT FG?
The dude’s been terrible this year.
I’ve made it known I’m not a huge football fan, but I’ll watch and root for the Giants. I’ve seen most of the games this season and they just do not look like the same team as last year.
I know they won. That’s cool and all, but they didn’t look poised; stupid penalties, blown coverages, soft in the middle. Secondary looks lost almost every game I’ve seen.
Can’t complain too much about the offense, though I’d like a little more consistency week-to-week. That defense is the main problem. Just…wow. They play so well in the first half…and then disappear.
Special teams aren’t very good either (though Hixon did pretty well today).
I wouldn’t be surprised if they missed the playoffs. At least we’re better than the Redskins (sorry Drew, I had to!).
Remind me of the 2007 team, that worked out great.
I hear you
I don’t get the D struggles – Sheridan is running pretty much Spag’s system – so the confusion on coverages is disturbing.
I’m guessing that Osi still isn’t back to his 2007 form – and Canty is still getting back into shape.
Phillips is a HUGE loss
Losing Pierce hurts – but he got old, fast. Time to draft LBs.
I disagree, they looked pissed all game. But this was not a good win because the defense blew it again late and allowed 31 points, and the running game was shitty, and Jacobs and Tuck got hurt. So basically we’ve answered no questions and lost some of our players.
Now if they win on Thursday, THAT would be big.
You know what? Fuck it. Confidence level=11. Out of 10.
We’re making the fucking playoffs.
I can’t believe the Lions just did that. Amazing.
I can’t believe Cleveland just did that. Amazing.
You have to give Stafford props for that TD pass. And the epic scramble.
Yeah, but Cleveland is epicly bad. Mangini needs to be fired.
The Lions/Browns game is like football’s best case scenario of a Nets/Knicks game.
Good for the NFL that Quinn and Stafford had great games. Against some lousy teams, though.
Fuckin Chris Simms! Broncos were rolling. Simms attempts first throw and fumbles and now Sd drove Dow the field and scored a TD. Frustrating game. What a horrible start
Ugh Simms is horrible. This game is ugly so far
LOL at Bengals and Raiders: 3 fumbles in 3 plays.
