I think so since I beat you the first time. So the first and second tie breaker (overall record and HTH would be a tie), therefore the third tie breaker is total points.

Oops...points is the second tie breaker not HTH according to the rules, plus my division record is better then yours:

1. Best Record Overall, then tiebreakers as follows

2. Points Scored (Meaning total points for your team during the regular season)

3. Head to Head (If the two teams played each other more than once, and split their series, tiebreaker #4 goes into effect)

4. Division Record (If it gets this far, the Team with the best division record gets the berth)

5. Power Rankings (As determined by CBS Sportsline)

------

I think I had it figured out that I needed to win 1 of my last games and not be outscored by 170 points to secure a first round bye, and since I beat ointment last week I got it (actually I'm 163 points higher). Which I really needed with K Jones and Colston being dinged up.

It could happen that you could pass me, but I like my chances.

So, I can finish tied for the best record and second in total points, but I won't get a bye.

That's some buzzard luck.

Actually I think if you win and maintain your 100 points advantage over MT, and everybody else I think you get second place and a first round bye.

According to the rules the division winners don't necessarily get spots 1 through 3.

If you lose you need MT, Shack, and Angry Mob to all lose.

Personally I'm kind of hoping you win so I don't have to face you till the championship.

That would be cool. Now all I need to do is come up with the 120+ points generally necessary to beat you.

, well you are off to a good start with Heap sucking it up plus I have some tough matchups (K Jones @ NE, Westbrook @ Carolina, and Tiki against Dallas). And with LT, Fitz, Walker, and Brees who knows.

That's why I want Colston back when I play you in the playoffs...to help minimize Brees.

I can't say that our good friend Kyle has set a good precedent for our little Gunslinger. In fact, the Boller connection is as close as Cutler will ever get to Elway, Kyle wears #7.

Cutler doesn't and nobody in this city ever will. Remember that when you guys all turn on him eventually.

Moronic Numbskullery at its finest!

kcnative gets banned for his attempt at a little smack (Cutler to get toasted), yet somehow this guy is still able to stick around?

Care to explain that one.

I didn't ban kcnative, and didn't see why he got banned. I'm not sure why that happened.

Here's a question. Why don't they move In n' Out Burgers east of California? That place would work wherever they put it.
They make there own ground beef fresh, that is never froze from one meat processing plant in Los Angeles. That's why there isn't any outside of there delivery range from that one processing plant, north CA, AR and NV are the limits. Read somewhere that opening a second plant wasn't cost effective, that's why they still haven't moved more easterly. Till they do watch out 'cause their damn tasty. Go here for a quick primer and here for their not so secret menu.

Tedford's system and work with QB's is enough to get many QB's drafted in the first round, especially if you have the measurables. However it was never shown that Boller had the intangibles that Cutler has been lauded for by experts and coaches everywhere. Steve Young, Ron Jaworski, Phil Simms, Chris Mortensen, Merrill Hodge, Sean Salisbury, Mike Mayock, Shanahan, Dan Reeves, Jeff Fisher (who personally liked Cutler the best) and many, many more.

Cutler demonstrated RARE physical and mental attributes before the draft, showed the poise to go through the WHOLE draft process, and increase his support while doing so.

Cutler did not play for a QB guru in college. He did not have a good defense in college to save him. He had next to no playmakers to help out, and had to run for his life from the defenders of the SEC, the most physical and fast college football conference in the nation. He did all of this while taking in a Vanderbilt education, lifting with the lineman so he could stand the beating his teammates allowed him to take, and still putting himself on the map while being at a school that generally makes it through the whole college football season without getting even a mention.

And all this without even bringing up the fact that Kyle Boller played in a very watered down and weak Pac 10 conference, before it had the likes of a dominant USC, during the days where the highly recruited Carson Palmer was underachieving until his senior year and leaving the Pac 10 up for grabs it was so weak.

Kyle Boller and Jay Cutler are not a comparison. This is not to say Cutler will be great, I think he is likely headed in that direction over time, but he has a long way to go.

But you can't make a Boller and Cutler comparison without mentioning, let alone realizing that Jay Cutler overcame and exceeded all odds in his college football career while Kyle Boller took his physical gifts and were inserted with the most proficient QB system under Tedford that college football has seen over the last 20 years.

If you want to know the biggest difference you cannot see yet between Cutler and Boller, wait until Cutler has had time to show his poise. Poise is the one thing that Boller lacks, and it is probably Cutler's biggest strength, even above his ridiculous arm strength.
Beat me to the punch Jlet...good job though!

Let me add one little excerpt here, though:

During his 18-year coaching career at California, Oregon (1998-2001), Fresno State (1992-97) and the CFL's Calgary Stampeders (1989-91), Tedford devised record-setting offenses at every stop. Under his tutelage, such quarterbacks as Trent Dilfer, Akili Smith, Joey Harrington, David Carr, Kyle Boller and Aaron Rodgers blossomed into first-round NFL draft picks. His latest pupil was Rodgers, who ranked No. 8 nationally in passing efficiency in 2004, completing 66.1 percent of his passes for 2,566 yards and 24 touchdowns with only eight interceptions.

Can you say underwhelming?

Wow dude how had he played again? You are going to get down on him before he even plays? I would like to call you a jackass, but you are just an idiot. I think you were that guy in school that did something stupid just so someone would pay attention to you.

Guess what, everyone thought you were an idiot then too.

By the way, are you suggesting that Plummer be the QB?

So glad I missed most of this thread, though the sandwich discussion is cool. It appears that we've found the last remaining fan who can't figure it out why Jake lost his job.

He just blinded by his misplaced anger of Shanahan.

I didn't think you did, you usually don't ban for smack attempts.
