San Francisco have played the equivalent of a good MWC conference schedule.

New Mexico just beat BYU or Utah.

Not true at all. SF is paired up against the AFC North this season, which is the best division in terms of won/loss percentage (+10 W/L). SF is 2-1 against the AFC North after that tough road loss to Baltimore, with a home game against Pittsburgh next Sunday. And in terms of the division, the NFC East and AFC South both have worse won/loss %'s than the NFC West. Arizona and Seattle have been playing pretty well of late after terrible starts. Look at the NFC East, Cowboys and Giants have been playing as if they want a higher draft pick. Philadelphia and Washington have been absolutely turrible. And discount all the records in the AFC South by two games as each team picks up an easy 2 wins vs. Indianapolis.

Not saying SF is a great team. Their pass defense is suspect and their offense is weak. I think they've overachieved with Smith as the QB. He's still below average and can't make plays in the red zone. His mobility is also below average. Put a decent QB on the team with that run defense and the 49'ers are probably undefeated.
 
Harrison getting suspended 1 game is such garbage. Might as well put some flags on these guys or play 2 hand touch. The QB is OUT OF THE POCKET RUNNING and you still can't hit him? Helmet to helmet you say? I mean what if Harrison tackles him at the knees? Penalty. What happens if his helmet starts in the middle of his chest but slides up to the QB's Chin. Penalty. So pretty much there is a moving target of about 1 foot by 1 foot that you need to hit.

********!
 
I think the NFL needs to finally accept that somtimes, QBs are going to get injured. Sometimes, people are going to have concussions. Sometimes, receivers going across the middle might get hurt!

It happens.

That's football!

If you don't want to play a violent sport, stick to golf.

Your idiocy baffles me. Ray Lewis has managed to play the game, play it like a man, like someone who opponents fear, and for over a decade now, but without the ******** headhunting that Harrison so ignorantly continues to feel the need to do. He's a scumbag plain and simple. If he were on my team, I'm sure I'd feel somewhat differently. But I'd still be objective enough to realize that his actions are 1) illegal per the rules 2) unnecessary in making the tackle in a manner that is still downright violent and effective and 3) extremely threatening to the long-term health of the players upon whom he inflicts such pain.

Know what the **** you're talking about before you make ignorant comments. The 1986 Bengals players have a 44% memory loss rate and given the increased "athleticism" of players over the last 10-20 years, rates like these are only likely to go up unless rules are put into place to protect unnecessary head trauma. Somehow every other NFL player manages to make tackles, many of which are violent at times, without the deliberate head to head contact.

2 Things wrong with your post

You used Ray Lewis as your defense - A Murder and consistant helmet to helmet candidate. In the last game vs. the Steelers he went high, helmet to helmet, on Ward yet wasn't flagged...

Harrison is a poster child for GODell...


2nd problem
You used the BUNGLES as an example.. they were horrible and got hit a lot thus the reason they have memory loss.


Salmon - you may or may not have played ball at any level. The problem is that players are 2X as fast, strong, big as they were previously. The step up for me from High School to College was like night and day due to the size/speed difference. I can't imagine how fast it is in the NFL.

I mean look at Woodley for example.. a guy that is 6'4'' 256 LBS and runs a 4.6 40...

No, I didn't really watch it much. Why?

No reason was just curious on your opinion since being a Phili fan I thought you'd watch, that and I also thought you used to watch the Phins a bit back in the day.

Now a more pressing question for me is who will the Phins get as HC next year.
I hope they don't completely turnover the roster that sometimes happens, I think the Phins on D have good pieces.
