The end of this great forum

I don't know man, looks like you had a great forum going for a week or so... but now the season is OVER! You going to come up with a new theme for the off season or are you going to stick with the pigskin? If you are going to stick with the pigskin, here is a topic...

What went wrong with the Jaguars???!!!! MANY predicted them to be in the superbowl before the season started... WTF happened?

HAAAAAA There is ALWAYS something going on in the NFL...it's all a matter of how deep you get into it

The combine and draft are coming up. Plus being a Chiefs fan...I am still waiting on a head-coach...then for our coaching staff to fill up.

There stuff going on...just not on the field. :salute:

this forum is like the nfl network "there is no offseason"

Let's go w/ what happened to the Chargers!?!?! And is LT coming back?

I would like to talk about my cardinals and the crappy play calling early in the superbowl!!!! You go to Larry the entire year and then dont even get him the ball till like half way threw the game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :rage::rage::rage: sorry im just mad they lost it was a good game tho

the only reason the cards lost is because they took a dozens holding penalties!

...whether or not they keep LT...they HAVE to sign Sproles...they are probably kicking themselves after the numbers Turner put up this season...dont let the same happen with Darren.

...I played Jr. Ball with Darren and graduated from High School with him. ;)

No he's not gonna be back. I think the Chargers should draft a back, Knowshon if he's still available. I know Sproles was a great college player and is a great kickoff returner, but I just really don't think he is big enough to be an every down back in the NFL. Turner is a big dude, more of a MJD build...Just look at what the Steelers did to them when LT was out. He didn't get anything on the ground or via the screen. This gave them the ability to pin their ears and rush the passer every down.

That 100 yard INT for a TD didn't help them either!

the fact that the cards played it safe the whole game is a big reason they lost. they had 2 pass attempts for more than 15 yrds the whole game. its the super bowl there is no tomorrow you pull out all the stops and give it everything. the cards failed to do that

Everyone had a hard time running on the Steelers D tho....there have been only two rushers able to put up over 100 yards against the steelers in the past 62 games. ....with all respect, I dont think LT would have done much better than Darren. LT's rush avg this season was 3.1, where DS had 5.4 yards a carry.

That's a very valid point. I wasn't really thinking about that when I posted, it was just the only game I could think of DS being the feature back since he got in the L.

However, LT carried the ball 292 times compared to Sproles' 61, which is an obscene difference, about 20% of the carries that LT got. Of course the avg is gonna be lower.
