Why is Houston-area AFC second half TV KC @ DEN and not Ravens @ Cinci ?

HPF Bob · #26 01-01-2012, 01:34 PM

This is looking like a pre-season game, at least on our side.

I'm good with giving some of these players some live action before the playoffs spot and I'm glad to see AJ make a few catches even though what I really want to see is AJ on a go route without pulling up.

Defense is still fighting pretty hard. I'd love to see some surge from the OL like they had on the first drive.

The highlight you'll see all weekend though is the scrub who made the tackle without his helmet on.

Nconroe · #27 01-01-2012, 01:38 PM

Nice run by Tate. Lots of backup players in now.

Ravens-Bengals was flexed from an early game by the NFL but somehow CBS decided to show it only in the Cincy and Baltimore local markets. Most of the country is getting Denver-KC except in California which is getting Oakland-SD.

I suspect CBS will switch away from any mismatches to whatever game still has playoff implications and where the outcome is in doubt.

Why anyone throws away from Jackson is beyond me. The guy is simply awful.

He reminds me of a slower Jacques Reeves.

He simply does not know what to do when the ball is in the air.

He never even knows that the ball is in the air. Comparisons to Jacques Reeves are apt but Reeves was far better than Jackson. I'm beyond being annoyed with Jackson. He is who he is. He is not good and his ceiling is distressingly low. I'm pissed at the organization for drafting the midget and for stubbornly continuing to allow him to hurt the team.

If Delhomme would've at least pretended to want to run that one in, he may have freed up some coverage.
