Jerks of the Week for Dec. 31, 2012 is up, so just click the link. This week’s jerks are the Lexus December to Remember commercials.

It’s time for some Migelini Madness! NFL.com sucks. They no longer have their regular GameCenter chat format; they installed a Facebook chat app instead, which really blows. This means that we won’t be hearing from our favorite idiots anymore. No more pervy Aaron3619. No more stupid Migelini. No more childish Taton. No more insane Farim.

Well, I’m taking a stand against this via two methods. First, I have hundreds of unused GameCenter comments saved up, so I have enough to survive for a few more years. Second, I plan on re-creating our favorite GameCenter characters and having them troll the Facebook posters in the app. I made a Migelini account and my girlfriend, Awesome Girl Who Loves Football, who was once harassed by Aaron3619, is the new Aaron. Feel free to re-create other ones!

As you can see here, Mario is not worried about the 49ers because of their injured quarterback:



Mario is all about making sure people have their facts straight this week:



If you’ve wondering what Mario thought about the possible suspension to Richard Sherman, here it is:



Want an NFC West preview for next year? Mario’s got it covered:



As for other trollers, I was very excited to see a D’Squarius Green Jr:



Love the Marty Millen insult there. Oh, and here’s Bill Romanowski, who now apparently works in a prison:



INDIANAPOLIS OFFENSE: The big news heading into this contest is that Ray Lewis announced that he will retire after this season. Lewis will be back in the lineup after tearing his triceps, which will be both good and bad. The positive to Lewis’ return is that he’ll be an on-field leader and will put all of his teammates in the right position because he’s so great with the mental aspect of football. The negative is that Lewis was a big liability in run support even before he suffered an injury. Lewis won’t be at 100 percent, so the Colts would be wise to attack him.

Vick Ballard has enjoyed some quality outings late in the season, including a 105-yard performance at Houston back in Week 15. The Ravens’ issues in terms of stopping the rush are well-documented, so while Ballard should still play well and approach the 100-yard plateau, they’re lucky they don’t have to battle a running back like Adrian Peterson, or even Marshawn Lynch or Alfred Morris.

Of course, Indianapolis moves the chains primarily through the air. Andrew Luck, who is already deadly when it comes to converting third-down attempts, hasn’t turned the ball over in the past three weeks. He somehow was careful with the football this past week against the Texans even though he was constantly pressured. Protecting him will be key, so it’s good news for the Colts that the Ravens are just tied for 15th in sacks (37).

BALTIMORE OFFENSE: I already mentioned that the Ravens are not particularly good against the run, but they’re like, well, the 2000 Baltimore Ravens compared to the Colts in that department. Indianapolis is ranked dead last versus the rush over the past four weeks (5.91 YPC), highlighted by the 350-plus rushing yards it surrendered to Kansas City in Week 16. The Chiefs became just the fifth team to gain 350 yards or more on the ground since 1989 – though they still managed to lose because Brady Quinn was so inept.

The Ravens will definitely run the football. Cam Cameron’s not the offensive coordinator anymore; otherwise he’d have Joe Flacco attempt 50 passes and call for several ineffective end-arounds. Baltimore named Jim Caldwell as a replacement for Cameron specifically so he would find a way to give Ray Rice the football. Rice is essentially coming off a week of rest, so his legs will be fresh to expose Indianapolis more effectively than he normally would.

Unlike the Chiefs, the Ravens have the aerial attack to prevail in the event that they gain 350 rushing yards on the ground. Well, maybe. It’s difficult to tell which Flacco we’ll get. When Flacco is on, he’s incredibly good. Just ask the Giants. But when he’s off, anyone can beat the Ravens. Just ask Charlie Batch. With Vontae Davis healthy again, the Colts have a decent enough aerial defense to contain Flacco.

RECAP: The Colts have played out of their minds for their embattled head coach, and will continue to perform above their talent level until they meet a playoff opponent that is simply unbeatable for them. And despite what Michael Lombardi said on Bill Simmons’ BS Report, Indianapolis can absolutely defeat Baltimore. Here’s why, in addition to the Chuckstrong reasoning:

1. I just don’t think the Ravens are that good. I received lots of hate mail over the year for keeping them out of the top 10 of my NFL Power Rankings, but I felt as though that was completely justified.

The Ravens have just one convincing win since Week 2 – its 33-14 destruction of the reeling Giants. They beat the Patriots, but should have lost the game for various reasons. They could have easily fallen to the Chiefs and Cowboys after that. They were blown out by the Texans. They struggled with Cleveland after the bye. They needed a miracle to slay the Chargers. They lost to Charlie Batch and nearly went down to Byron Leftwich, who broke his ribs. And then they were obliterated by the Broncos at home.

2. Chuck Pagano gives the Colts an edge – but not just spiritually. He, as well as a handful of his players, were in Baltimore last year. They know the Ravens’ schemes, coaching and personnel inside and out. Pagano will be able to create a great game plan to thwart his former team.

3. Baltimore, meanwhile, did itself a great disservice by resting its players this past Sunday. Forum member mdb researched it, and teams resting their starters are 5-15 against the spread in their first playoff game.

I like the Colts to not only cover; but to win straight up. This is my top pick this week.

FINAL THOUGHTS: There’s too much being made about Ray Lewis’ announced retirement. His teammates already knew this, but it was just announced to the media. I still love the Colts.





The Psychology. Edge: Colts.
Chuck Pagano and many of his players are familiar with the Ravens. Baltimore just rested its starters.

    The Game. Edge: Seahawks.

    This week on FOX, we’re going to have Joe Buck and Troy Aikman calling the shots instead of the great preseason homers like Kevin Reilly and Don Tollefson, inept ESPN guys Emmitt and Matt Millen, annoying guys like Charles Davis and senile guys like Bob Greise. Here’s what it would sound like if those five clowns were calling this game:

    Kevin Reilly: Welcome to the nation’s capital, the state of Washington, where the Redskins take on the Seahawks. Guys, we were here last week, and we watched the Redskins destroy the Cowboys. As a true Eagles’ fan, I hate Dallas with every fiber of my being, so I’m not going to lie to you – when Tony Romo threw that last interception, I got a little excited and urinated in my pants a little bit.

    Emmitt: Mike, I do not understand what wrong with that. Sometime when I watch the TV show Dancin’ on the Star, I sometime get li-bit excitement too even though one time a couple of month ago I dance on the star in the show.

    Reilly: Thanks, Emmitt. That makes me feel better about myself. Does anyone have any embarrassing moments they want to share?

    Millen: Oh sure, Kevin, I pee my pants all the time, but I do so on purpose. One of my kielbasa partners, Georgio, is into that sort of thing. We both wear adult diapers so we don’t get our pants wet, and then we have lots of fun together. You should try it, Kevin.

    Griese: Did someone say adult diapers? Where are my adult diapers?

    Reilly: No one cares about you, Griese. Millen, you’re sick, but perhaps these adult diapers will work for me.

    Tollefson: I wouldn’t do that, Kevin. While Millen’s sick pervert friend may like that, it won’t fly with the ladies. How do you expect a woman to cook and clean for you when you wear adult diapers? She’ll think you’re some rich gold-digger and order you to pay a cleaning service to do household chores for you. What sort of woman doesn’t cook or clean around the house? Not one that I’d like to associate with.

    Reilly: I don’t care about women, Tolly! I care about my Eagles!

    Millen: Oh really? Do you care about men? Because Georgio and I could share some of our kielbasas with you one of these nights.

    Reilly: No men, no women! Only Eagles. My Eagles! I just have to figure out a way not to pee myself.

    Davis: There are some other things you can do in your pants, Kevin. How about pooping? The good, ole No. 2? That’s a great thing to do in your pants. How about sticking your hand into your pants, Al Bundy style? That always works. What about diarrhea? Not the same as poop, but it’s even messier! How about really, really getting excited and…

    Reilly: I SWEAR I DON’T DO THAT EITHER SO SHUT UP CHARLES DAVIS! We’ll be back after a word from our local sponsors!

    WASHINGTON OFFENSE: Everyone seems to be wondering how the Redskins can possibly stop Russell Wilson and Marshawn Lynch, but I have similar questions about Seattle’s ability to contain Robert Griffin and Alfred Morris. The Seahawks do not have a great defense. I love their secondary, which will be welcoming back Brandon Browner, but Seattle has not been able to stop the run ever since stud defensive end Red Bryant suffered a foot injury. He’s been playing hurt since the beginning of October, which would explain why his defense is just 27th against ground attacks, surrendering 4.54 yards per carry to the opposition.

    The Redskins are just as lethal on offense as Seattle with their read-option attack. Griffin called Morris his Terrell Davis, which is appropriate. Morris rushed for 1,610 yards and 13 touchdowns as a rookie on 4.8 yards per attempt. Even though the Seahawks practice against this scheme, it’s difficult to imagine them containing Washington because Bryant is essentially playing on one leg.

    Speaking of playing on one leg, Griffin’s health is obviously the main concern. Griffin was running away with the Offensive Rookie of the Year honors prior to suffering a torn PCL in the fourth quarter of the Baltimore game. He was gimpy against the Eagles and only slightly healthier versus Dallas. Now, team doctors are telling Mike Shanahan that Griffin is completely healthy. That’s obviously bad news for the Seahawks.

    SEATTLE OFFENSE: Everything positive I just wrote about the Redskins can also be applied to the Seahawks. Russell Wilson is so dangerous in the read-option style of attack. Marshawn Lynch is an awesome complementary runner, so Washington won’t have much success stopping him. The Redskins are slightly better against the run compared to Seattle, but not by much, ranking 18th in that department (4.34 YPC).

    Lynch is great, but Wilson is just playing out of his mind right now. He keeps getting better and better each week. In his previous eight starts, he’s scored 20 touchdowns and has turned the ball over just three times. He’s maintained a YPA of 7.9 or better every contest since Week 10. With Griffin slowing down at the end, it’s fair to say that Wilson should have overtaken Griffin for Offensive Rookie of the Year.

    Washington’s best chance to stop Wilson is to do what the Rams did – flood the backfield on nearly every play and hope for the best. The Redskins pressured Tony Romo consistently in Week 17, but did so via the blitz. That won’t work very well against Wilson. St. Louis was able to just rush their defensive line and accumulate six sacks in the process – and despite this, Wilson still went 15-of-19 for 250 yards and two touchdowns (one passing, one rushing) with 58 yards on the ground. He’s just unbelievable.

    RECAP: The Seahawks have been on fire lately, but most of their blowout victories have been at home. They crushed the crappy Bills, but that was in Toronto. They lost at Miami, but prevailed in Chicago the following week. That was a great win, but think about it this way – Seattle had to beat the Bears in overtime, yet the Redskins are better than Chicago, so why are the Seahawks favored by three on the road?

    I don’t think this spread is right. I feel as though it should be a pick-em game. The Seahawks have no playoff experience, and they’re not nearly as good on the road as they are at home. Yes, they have a convincing victory as a visitor, but that contest could have gone either way. At the time, I wrote that if Chicago had won the coin toss in overtime, it would have prevailed because both defenses were reeling.

    This spread is not a pick-em, however. Washington is getting points as a host. The rule with small home underdogs in the playoffs is that you bet on them unless the visiting squad is substantially better. The Seahawks are better than the Redskins, but substantially? Not on the road they’re not. I’m picking Washington for two units.

    FINAL THOUGHTS: Nothing has changed for me. Still on the Redskins.




    The Psychology. Edge: Redskins.
    The Redskins being a home underdog has to be a huge motivational boost.


    The Vegas. Edge: None.
