Even on the long completions, he underthrew them and the receivers had to stop and go up for jump balls that should have been in-stride touchdowns. So in the final stages of his precipitous decline he's still andy dalton? that's not bad.

If/when they go back it will be with a lot of different dudes. Caldwell is obviously not as good as people were led to believe, and while I love Stafford his ceiling is to be a lovely Brett Favre. After the talk in previous years of building a team's foundations in its line play, both of those units look like crap too. I was really optimistic that things would be different when WCF bit it but now I'm starting to wonder if the Ford family itself is cursed. Which would be too bad, I kind of want to see how Bill Jr runs the team unless it would just be more of the same poo poo. Can they trade the Lions straight up to the Illitches for the Tigers?

Keep in mind that it's still September, Peyton's best month of the year.

A lot of his success right now is the fact that he is just so goddamned smart. He is physically not the quarterback he was, but he still is mentally. Most of his success right now is from being smart and reading defense.

I know a lot of Pats fans are cheerleading Peyton's decline, but I'm not one of them. Partly that's because Brady is old as poo poo himself, but mostly because I've always liked watching him do cool poo poo when it wasn't against my team, which is the vast majority of the time in any given year. But man, his arm looks like poo poo now. He can still throw far, sure - if he winds up and puts his whole body into it, which usually makes his accuracy go completely in the toilet. It also extends his release into Tebow-esque time dilation, which behind that lovely line is a bad formula. It IS kind of funny how Kubiak and Elway's master plan the first 2 games of trying to party like it's 1998 to take the load off Peyton... just got the poo poo beat out of Peyton while the scoring went into the gutter. Gee, with no lead back worthy of the title and no run blocking maybe that's a poo poo plan guys, I dunno!

The fact Peyton can play like this when you can tell he's about at the end of his rope physically is a testament to just how good the guy is. In my opinion he is the best QB to have ever played.

Nobody should ever have been led to believe that Caldwell was anything other than a Fabian minded guy who constantly reaffirms that everything is fine while the world burns down around him. He made some awful decisions last season and the Lions went to the playoffs last year despite him, not because of him.

Well yeah, but in the GDT last night someone asked if the Caldwell honeymoon was over now and I wasn't even aware that there was one. If there was then it definitely ended after last season, not last night.

I despised Petyon up until I got to watch him get blown out in the Super Bowl. You know when people are like "relax dude it's just a game", I was on the hateful end of that toward Peyton. Like truly genuinely hated him with all my heart. But Jesus Christ I hate seeing him play like this. It's not even fun to hate him anymore, I just feel bad, and that kind of makes me hate him a little bit. I will be furious if he somehow ends up going deep in the playoffs but I can't lie, I'm kind of rooting for him to continue doing what he's done his entire career - have a good regular season and then collapse when it really matters. Let me hate you, Petyon. Please.

Okay, just saw this, but apparently the Cowboys went from 100+ rushing yards in the first half, then 5 rushes for -1 yards in the 2nd half? What the gently caress Cowboys?

The other team realized that no plays were happening past the 10 yard line and just piled up in there I assume. Also the Cowboys running backs are actually kind of bad. Which is funny because actually has an arm and can physically throw far, even though he's dumb and bad overall, so you'd think they'd try some of that but nope.

It definitely has its following regardless of if the pizza is basically cheese and marinara-flavored cardboard. Then again Pizza Patron is popping up everywhere now and they take pesos apparently so we'll see how Little Caesars handles it.

All the Kmart stores are in terrible shape because Sears doesn't even have enough money to maintain their own brand. The last Kmart I went into the whole store smelled of mildew, they had merchandise just stacked in the aisles, there were birds flying around the store and the counters at the checkout had their finishes completely worn down to raw wood.

The cardinals have scored the most points and have a point differential of +77. The Patriots are 7 points behind them in scoring but are 28 points behind in point differential. Cardinals good y'all.

Other way around. here you go, this article pretty much explains it http://www.bloomberg.com/bw/articles/2013-07-11/at-sears-eddie-lamperts-warring-divisions-model-adds-to-the-troubles quote:Although Lampert is notoriously media-averse, he agreed to answer questions about Sears’s organizational model via e-mail. “Decentralized systems and structures work better than centralized ones because they produce better information over time,” Lampert writes. “The downside is that, to some, it appears messier than centralized systems.” Lampert adds that the structure enables him to evaluate the individual parts of Sears, so he can collect “significantly better information and drive decision-making and accountability at a more appropriate level.” basically an Ayn Rand worshipper who got lucky playing the markets thought he could run sears better by "creating competition" and it has failed hilariously. also he's incompetent.
