McNair deserves to de dumped. That silly interception changed the course of the game. He had an open receiver in the left corner of the field. The Colts were more than beatable.

Am I only a TD and a FG away? No problem. It -is- gonna happen!

Like the Redskins this season, I suffered a defensive collapse, and lost a lead in the second half. Congratulations to RiC for coming into my house and sending me packing. (Talking smack is the surest way to jinx myself. )

Air_hog finished off JPM, who missed a FG with 4 seconds left that would have sent the contest to overtime.

On an interesting sidenote, the teams scored the same 168 total points this weekend as last. Does that mean 84 next weekend? Moving on to the Championship Round thread.

Thanks, you are a class act. It was close though. It could have gone either way.

Three out of four is not bad.

Great call on the Patriots airhog. Congrats and good luck.

Are we going to start having hognostications about the hognosticators now?

By the way, while I'll agree to the tie-breaker set up this year, my inclination is to have tie breakers decided by each game's point selections, rather than a running total of all points (for next year). Just my

Nice of you to agree to play by the rules this year.

Since tie-breaking individual games still allows for overall ties, and would be more work for yours truly, I am going to leave the current method alone. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Well, I AM the most important person in the universe, so you should be flattered that I agreed to play by the rules.

Perhaps I should have phrased my comment better:

'Given that we're halfway done with the Hognostication playoffs, it seems logical to proceed as RiC suggested. Perhaps next year we should determine tie-breakers game-by-game rather than by overall points.'

Better? All that aside, I can see your point, and therefore I hereby approve the overall points method.
