Saints/Colts

[Smokinblues]

Saints defense not looking terrible.

And fuck Chevy for using the mellancamp song for ANOTHER YEAR.

[Smokinblues]

I'll take tied at 10 at half time. Just hoping the defense keeps it up.

Used to go there all the time as a kid for the water park.

heh. Didn't really start going to New Orleans until after I moved to Vicksburg/Jackson. Did go to camp there one summer.

Go Colts!

[Magnum V.I.]

Looks like it was a smart move for me to pick up Addai. As long as I see some Deep Red Zone Penetration for him in the second quarter.

I'm a Rams fan, fuck both teams.

now now...no need to lower the tone so early in the season.

While people still think the Rams are going to do well, I must trash talk now. Stupid D.

Defense is usually the one thing Haslett gets right. But you guys have some seriously bad karma working against you.

When did Haslett ever get D right?

[Smokinblues]

pittsburgh. story is that it was never really his defense in NO. Venturi, the d-coord was Benson guy.

[ThisSpaceForRent]

Go Colts!

Yeah! GO COLTS! GO TO HELL!
Here's another year of watching Manning dance around like a little bitch before every snap.

[FedEx Fanboy]

Colts D is looking fucking tight. 3 points given up thus far...

Shit, if we can do this all year it's gonna be REPEAT BITCHES!!!

[ThisSpaceForRent]

Shit, if we can do this all year it's gonna be REPEAT BITCHES!!!

Like hell. They were lucky last year....Manning will never win another one. No Manning will.

[FedEx Fanboy]

Lucky my ass.

Manning will be dancing and prancing all the way into Feb.

And you'll still be crying like a little punk.

Let the boy dance he's winning.

fuck the NFC!

[FedEx Fanboy]

DAMN!

Now that was an ASS WHOOPIN!

Who wants to step up to the CHAMPS!

God, please let us beat the Pats this bad. I'll kill for that.

would you like some cheese with your whine and sour grapes?

don't get to up. colts are going to be good, but that d is thin and it's a long year. also, saints aren't nearly that bad.

[YouStayClassy]

Wow.

[changingshades]

don't get to up. colts are going to be good, but that d is thin and it's a long year. also, saints aren't nearly that bad.

I'm sorry, but were we watching the same game? The D might not be that deep, but we just kept the top NFC offense to 3.

[Mike]

Like hell. They were lucky last year....Manning will never win another one. No Manning will.

Calling Peyton Manning "lucky" is about the most retarded sports-related comment I've ever heard.

[bradical]

yeah, we we're watching the same game. we're just seeing different things. it's a long season.

[kritty]

I am keeping the faith - GO SAINTS!

[half guard]

when the only real points the saints scored in the 1st half came from the defense, i knew it was going to get ugly after half time. 10-10 against the colts isn't anything to be cheery about when last years #1 offense couldn't get more than 3 points on the board.

[Taxman]

Well, that wasn't much fun.

[bradical]

Well, that wasn't much fun.

luckily we've a full sunday still to come.

[X arseface X]

I'm getting into this thread late, because I just got home from work, but holy shit. If the Colts D can maintain that level of play all season, they're going to go far.

[Fygar]

I expected a Colts win but that was just ridiculous.

Question for those who watched it in HD, did it not look that great? I just got my HD about two weeks ago, and I've seen a ton of other sports look much much better. Hell, last week I caught snippets of some college football games and they looked leagues better than tonight's game. It just seemed like every time the camera angle changed it took a second or two to adjust. It'd be blurry/ slightly pixelated for a second and then get fairly clear. While we're on the subject anyone have a list of all the NFL games that'll be in HD this season. I can't believe a sport as popular as this one gets such shoddy presentation, and only a handful of games in HD each year.

I watched it in standard def at work, and then again in high def when I got home. Obviously the high def looked a lot better, but it wasn't as clear as most HD broadcasts are. Everything looked a little washed out and fuzzy like it had been blown up.

Every game on Fox, ESPN, NFL Network and NBC will be broadcast in HD. And I believe CBS is down to only 1 SD game a week.

Don't know where you got this "only a handful" stuff.

Oh, and I'd say that NBC's HD football was the worst last year. Although what I saw of the game (I work nights, and only had it on while getting ready to leave) the HD looked totally fine.

I don't know what it is about NBC's hd, but they've always had that whole blurry for a second and then clears up thing when they switch camera shots. it's weird.

[RebootedCorpse]

Fuck. The Colts look unstoppable.

[Smokinblues]

Fuck. The Colts look unstoppable.
even if they're just a little bit better on defense (and they look to be more than that) they're going to be hard for anybody to beat.

[Black Roman]

:( is all I really need to say. *sigh* Damn you colts!!!! :mad: . . . on the bright side however my Fantasy Football stats are probably going to be great seeing the game Manning had. :p

[Taxman]

[Smokinblues]

They still don't broadcast in HD in this market. bastards :x
is that the local affiliate's decision or the network's? here it's all the local affiliate. And sometimes they forget to flip the HD switch, or switch it off early. For instance on Sunday night football games last year, most weeks the HD feed became standard def as soon as the game clock hit zero and stayed that way.

[Mike]

The second interception thrown by Brees was insanely awful. He through directly into three defenders! The Saints looked bad last night. They still have a lot of kinks to work out, apparently.

[Kody]

It really did look like Brees wasn't able to throw the long ball. Almost every pass was in the range of 10 yards, and many of those were off target.

I really, really hope he isn't hurt.

I think it has a lot more to do with the Colts taking away the deep ball. Almost all of those short passes were check downs thrown when the first and second choices weren't open.

I disagree. I'd say most of the short balls were first looks.

I'm a Steelers fan, and when I looked at the programming info for their games this season on NFL.com none of them had any listings for HD games. I knew that couldn't be true so I checked out some other teams schedules, and they each had a handful of HD games each. I was still in denial (because EVERY Pirates and Penguins game, which is quite a bit more is played in HD) so I did a google search of NFL games in HD. I found a few recent blog posts about people bitching that there are still a lot of games not in HD this season. After reading the posts here I come to realize that they probably meant in their specific market or were being petty and referring to the 1 game a week on CBS you mentioned. Thanks for the info it's a sigh of relief. I invited my Dad over to watch the game this Sunday in Hi Def, and if it was SD only he'd think I was crazy for buying such an expensive TV when the picture quality on his old Zenith is better.

[JeremyDale]

I heart the Colts. That is all.
