ESPN this morning

[iced]

Just turned it on and saw them covering the Seahawks. The comment was made, that since their remaining games are against SF, ARZ, and the Rams, that "they'll run through their division" (e.g., win out). Jaworski agreed.

Nope. That bullcrap of ending the season in SEA with a loss is gonna end this year.

And it ALMOST makes me wanna root for the 49ers against the Seahawks next week.

Almost.

seattle needs to lose though..

The same espn that didn't think Arizona could win another game or niners didn't even have to play the Raiders= automatic win

Last year I never thought the Rams had a shot against the Seahawks with Clemens, but IMO, this game will tell us if Shaun Hill will be back. If he can make plays against them and the Rams beat them then you have to entertain the thought of bringing him back. However, if he cannot generate anything against them and believe it won't be easy because Sanchez and the Eagles just came up dry then the Rams will be in a similar situation they were last year.

I for one are looking forward to playing against them it will gave a really good barometer on what it will take to get to the next level. All of us know a healthy Sam Bradford can get the Rams to the next level, but the questions looms, will that day ever exist?

My epic debate right now... I was maybe hoping Bane would show up and implode the stadium... But to have the Whiners beat them and to have us stomp the SeaChickens in Seattle and knock them out the playoffs?

That would just be epic!

If ESPN had a show called "We Were Wrong" and each week showed all the clips where they were wrong and made fun of themselves for it, I'd watch that in a heartbeat.

Not enough airtime. It'd be a 3-hour nightly show.

Not enough air time for that show. Regular programming would have to run for 12 hours, then that show would run for 12 hours because they are wrong all the time.

I'd be fine with bringing Hill back next year if he was told he could compete for the starting job and then spent the off season getting his body in shape. At his age and physical condition (even the coaches kid him about it) he needs to expect the chance of playing a full season and prepare in that fashion. I allow that if he did that he could gain some more zip on his ball, his years of experience without all the hits could end up being something that ended up being an advantage for him and us.
Gone are the days when a QB like Billy Kilmer ,Sonny Jurgensen , Jim Hart could play effectively,there are just too many good pass rushers in the league today , guys like Breese ,Manning,Brady are playing into their late thirties but it's apparent they are staying in great condition ,I will for all time think the injury Hill sustained against Minn. was because he wasn't really in game shape ,and that a full season might have caused him to hit the wall before it was over.

seattle needs to lose though..

I vote for a tie. Then they both lose

Hill tore a muscle on a sack and was ready no longer than 4 weeks later to start. You will believe for "ALL TIME" that it was because he was not in shape? So players who tear muscles in the NFL are not in shape?

Did you see a report somewhere that Hill wasn't in shape? I don't want an out of shape 2nd next season. If you know something we don't, please share.

I didn't see where the coaches kidded him about his physical condition. I saw where they thought he was a few pounds heavy, a joke about twinkies or something, but out of condition? Could you share that?

Hill has always been a little chunky. The hell do I care? He's not gonna run very far anyway.
