Jets Fan Arrested in San Diego, Jets-Chargers Game, nfl news

Last Sunday, the Jets beat the Chargers, while San Diego police rounded up Jets fans in the stadium and tossed them in the clink for no apparent reason. Watch how the Chargers fans even stand up for the guy.

TheDirty.com is also reporting this in a supposed email from another fan who was arrested:

Looks like San Diego hates losing so much even the cops are sick of it.

NFL Playoffs

Well, the title games are in place after a great weekend of football. 3 of the most elite quarterbacks in the NFL are joined by rookie playcaller, Mark Sanchez and the upstart Jets. Here’s what went down.

New Orleans Saints – 45 | Arizona Cardinals – 14

Sean Payton and the New Orleans Saints put the hurt on Kurt Warner and the Arizona Cardinals in a game that was only close for about 10 minutes. The Cardinals’ Tim Hightower shocked the South when he bolted for a 70-yard TD score on the first play from scrimmage, but Reggie Bush put that show on the back burner with some highlights of his own coupled with Drew Brees’s masterful dismantling of the Cardinals porous defense.

In the 2nd quarter Kurt Warner took a hit that may finally push him into retirement, likely to be a sure-fire Hall of Famer. I can’t imagine he’d want to come back after being hit like this.

Indianapolis Colts – 20 | Baltimore Ravens – 3

Haters beware, the Colts and their well-rested starters are headed to the AFC Title game with a full head of steam and a point to prove. Peyton Manning showed young Joe Flacco the difference between a promising future and a legendary career. Manning went completed 30 of 44 pass attempts, and rarely handed the ball off as the Colts D completely dominated the Ravens young and talented offense.

Under intense scrutiny for giving up on a perfect season, the Colts look poised for redemption as they go into the AFC Title game to face the team that handed them their first “loss” of the season.

Rumor is Curtis Painter will not even be on the sideline for this game, because as we’ve all seen, even if Rex Ryan were to sit on Peyton Manning’s head and kill him, the Colts would rather have a dead Peyton Manning taking the snaps than Painter.

Minnesota Vikings – 34 | Dallas Cowboys – 3

This was the scene for much of the day in Minnesota as the Vikings swarmed Tony Romo all day long. The Vikings D sacked Romo 6 times, never letting the young QB ever get a grip on the game, while veteran old-timer Brett Favre played like a superstar throwing for 4 TDs within only 15 completions. One TD was late in the 4th quarter when the Vikings were already up by 24 points which pissed off some of the Cowboys defenders, who showed more aggression yelling at Favre than they did all game trying to stop him.

New York Jets – 17 | San Diego Chargers – 14

The San Diego Chargers are a veteran led 12-4 division champion football team. Unfortunately for them, they are veterans who are accustomed to losing big games in the playoffs to lower seeded teams, and they are the champions of the AFC West division, arguably one of the weakest divisions in the league.

Mark Sanchez never played like a star, but also never played like a bum, which is what San Diego’s placekicker Nate Kaeding did. Kaeding, the best regular season kicker in the NFL, is probably the worst playoff kicker of all time. He has managed to blow no less than 3 playoff wins for the Jets dating back to 2005, when he blew another game against the Jets, and 2007 when he blew a kick to beat the eventual Super Bowl Champion Patriots.

Norv Turner will never win a Super Bowl as a Head Coach, but this one is not his fault.

Nate Kaeding, NFL Playoffs, NY Jets, Philip Rivers, San Diego Chargers

Grown men do not throw tantrums on the football field Phil.

Grow up.

By the way does Nate Kaeding bet on the Jets every week, or only when the Chargers are playing them in the playoffs? This guy has missed more big playoff FGs than anyone in NFL history.

Hey San Diego, stop firing coaches, and get a kicker who doesn’t choke every year.

FTRsports Week 17 NFL Power Rankings

Week 16 may have the worst gambling opportunities for football fans in the history of gambling. The bottom-feeding Bucs beat the Saints, the Colts pooped on their fanbase by laying down and dying against the Jets instead of trying to go undefeated, and Brett Favre proved that cold air really does affect people with arthritis. Let’s see if any of this affects this weeks rankings:

1. No one deserves to be #1 this week. The Colts proved their as masculine as Lifetime airing the Tony awards, and the Saints are making me question whether that’s a birthmark on Drew Brees’s face, or the beginning stages of AIDS. The Vikings can’t leap either team considering their QB played like Rex Grossman for one half and Dan Marino another half. I award you all no points, and may God have mercy on your souls.

2. Indianapolis Colts- I hate having to rank this team at all in a league made up completely of men, because this tank job should come with a penalty and a congressional hearing. Colts fans should have burned down the stadium after their team threw away perfection like it was a Christmas card with no money in it. I hope Peyton Manning gets hurt on the first snap of the playoffs, and Jim Caldwell gets hate mail for the rest of his life.

3. San Diego Chargers- The Chargers haven’t lost since mid-October, and don’t plan on them losing to the Redskins even with the reserves in this week. Jumping the Saints was unthinkable a couple weeks ago, but this team is legit going into the playoffs firing on all cylinders. I still don’t recommend betting on any games the final week of the season if teams that are locked into the playoffs are playing in them though.

FTRsports Week 16 NFL Power Rankings

Week 15 was nothing short of magical for gambling with highs and lows that could rival a Lindsay Lohan bender. The Browns scored an unbelievable 41 points against the lowly Chiefs in a thriller. Josh Cribbs and Jerome Harrison stepped into the limelight for the day thanks to KC’s epically bad defense and special teams. San Diego proved it’s worth by beating the Bengals in So Cal in the game dedicated to Chris Henry who we’ll touch upon later. Let’s see how this week’s rankings shape up:

1. Indianapolis Colts- With the Saints fall from grace in down in the Bayou, Peyton Manning’s forehead has led the Colts to the top of the pile with 2 games remaining. The Colts have the Jets and Buffalo left on the menu, and you can bet they will keep their foot on the gas through the end to go undefeated. Don’t let the media fool you into betting against them.

2. New Orleans Saints- Believe it or not the Saints are now more dangerous than ever now that the pressure to go unblemished is off of their shoulders. I wouldn’t bet on Saints games these next two weeks, because they have nothing to play for, but you can bet the house on these guys in the playoffs. They’re the team to beat in the NFC, and probably the whole league.

3. San Diego Chargers- We shouldn’t be so shocked to see the Chargers plowing through December considering they play their best football every season around Christmas, but I was pretty surprised to see them beat the Bengals this week. If the Chargers defense can show up in the playoffs they may actually win a playoff game, but don’t expect to see any miracles from this team. They hate playing football in January.

FTRsports Week 14 NFL Power Rankings

With Kurt Warner back in the saddle, and Matt Leinart back where he belongs, on the bench, the Arizona Cardinals flipped the switch on expectations when they beat the red-hot Minnesota Vikings this week, solidifying themselves as a playoff bound team this fall. The Dolphins upended the Pats putting the AFC East back into reach for a couple of teams, and the Steelers lost another big game. Let’s see how the rankings fell this week.

1. New Orleans Saints- Divine intervention, or point shaving? Washington’s kicker missed a 23 yard field goal to beat the undefeated Saints in the waning moments of the game. He was then promptly released from the team immediately afterwards. Saints hold the top spot till they lose a game all the way.

2. Indianapolis Colts- Peyton Manning’s forehead may be growing with every win, but don’t plan on seeing it stop in the regular season as the Colts have 3 easy games remaining, and are looking to make Don Shula cry at the end of the season.

3. Minnesota Vikings- The Vikings may have had a bump in the road in Arizona, butwith 10 wins, this team is still a force to be reckon with in the NFC. Look for a great game this week as the Vikings and Bengals meet in what should be a prime time display of playoff style football. Whichever team wins the ground game will probably win the overall game.
