End 3rd qtr: Colts 24, Raiders 16

By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer
Sunday, December 26th, 2010 at 3:24 pm in Oakland Raiders.

Third quarter notes

— Indianapolis had the ball with a first-and-10 at their own 25 on the last play of the quarter following an offsides penalty by Matt Shaughnessy on third-and-3.

– After the Colts scored, the Raiders went three and out as Jason Campbell was sacked by Dwight Freeney for seven yards on first down.

– Peyton Manning’s 4-yard touchdown pass to Blair White against Stanford Routt put the Colts up 24-16 with 2:55 left in the third quarter.

Manning changed the play at the line of scrimmage while staring directly into a Black Hole trying to make enough noise to make it impossible.

Indianapolis was the beneficiary of a ticky-tack pass interference flag against Routt who was flagged for minimal contact on an incompletion to White on a seam route, setting up the Colts with a first down at the 13-yard line.

—Janikowski converted from 52 yards following an incomplete pass from Campbell to Ford in the red zone with some aggressive defense from Cornelius Brown that could have _ and maybe should have _ drawn a flag for pass interference.

It brought Oakland within 17-16 with 7:53 left.

— The Raiders failed to cash in on a Manning interception and went three and out from their own 43.

On the Colts’ first series, Manning overthrew Tamme, who was being covered by Rolando McClain, with Huff making the catch from deep safety on a dive.

    Was Seymore worth our 1st rnd pick?

    I say yes, but we gotta get some depth. J. Henderson is gettin old, as well as Seymore. This is a GREAT time to get young depth!

    .

  3. The Dirtee Raccoon Says:

    Kelly aint a spring chicken either.

  4. raidermarty Says:

    2nd?

  5. Just Fire Baby Says:

    Offense has been awful today.

    Worse than the Miami game.

  6. Plunketthead Says:

    JFB

    Its the same look he had for the first game and a half of the year,

    The opps, I drank too much syrup look

  7. olinesux Says:

    they hit manning for the first time right now

  8. The Dirtee Raccoon Says:

    McPain is playin OK.

  9. VanHeathen Says:

    Nice to see what a ‘Proffesional’ QB plays like…
    too bad he’s on the other team…

  10. Plunketthead Says:

    Turnover thats what we needed

  11. Just Fire Baby Says:

    McClain helped on that one with great recognition.

  12. Raiders for life Says:

    Deirdorf is a frekin idiot

  13. 504 Raider Says:

    Cincy handling business. Eff You Jeff Fisher.

  14. TerrapinRaider Says:

    O-line can’t get things going in the run game. And the passing game(excluding DHB believe it or not) is not showing up …partly due to the pressure created at the line because the run game isn’t consistenly there.

    Still they have the oppty to win.

  15. The Dirtee Raccoon Says:

    Our window is open, if we do not play it correctly, it will close.

  16. olinesux Says:

    yeah he is….

  17. Plunketthead Says:

    bighead is one of the 5 greatest QBs in the history of the game. He does this to every one. We needed that turnover, now we need to score

  18. The Dirtee Raccoon Says:

    MM34 tp the rescue!

  19. RaiderRockstar Says:

    after 3 quarters the Colts have rushed for 114 yards on 23 carries and a TD … (almost 5 ypc)

    thanks Rolando!

  20. 504 Raider Says:

    Colts have a small fast defense. We gotta run power on them.

  21. The Dirtee Raccoon Says:

    WE must get 7 RIGHT NOW!

  22. Plunketthead Says:

    Nice pass JC

  23. Raiders for life Says:

    JC is falling apart.

  24. The Dirtee Raccoon Says:

    Go for 2

  25. TerrapinRaider Says:

    that was all ROOMMMMaaaac

  26. olinesux Says:

    cantbell doesnt have what it takes when no running game

  27. jmcclain Says:

    Colts d seriously can’t be this good. Oline not doin there job today. Campbell not effective without a running game. Pretty much why he needs to go. Weird game though just can’t believe colts d looks like the steelers today. Guess the raiders heart not in it today. Hope maybe they can still pull it off.

  28. olinesux Says:

    if ricky brown were in it would 300 yards rushing on the def

  29. The Dirtee Raccoon Says:

    Thats why we need a QB, and OT

  30. Just Fire Baby Says:

    after 3 quarters the Colts have rushed for 114 yards on 23 carries and a TD … (almost 5 ypc)

    thanks Rolando!

    *******************************

    No mention of the two plays by him in coverage leading to the two picks?

  31. RaiderRockstar Says:

    the Colts were DEAD LAST in rushing (32nd) with 85 yards per game.

    Seymour = beast
    McClain = bust

    Print That!

    EnglandRaider,

    Don’t agree. Team has put up 16 points mid-way to 3rd QTR….in the game.

    Indy can play ball too

    =======================================================

    Thirteen effin points?!
    A run back by Ford and two field goals-ONE from beyind the sixty!
    Campbell and the offense didn’t get a first down until 13 minutes left in the second quarter!
    Sure Indy can play football-they’ve got Manning.
    Our offense has still been pathetic against the 19th defensive team in the league.

  33. olinesux Says:

    the raiders have and always willonly go as far as the oline is willing to take them

  34. Plunketthead Says:

    Another turnover!!!
    We deserve it

  35. Plunketthead Says:

    Make it a pick 6

  36. RaiderRockstar Says:

    ROMAC tackles Rhodes after a 9 yard gain … I miss Kirk

    People say Jason Campbell is good when playing with a lead. I guess leads that come from Ford kickoff returns don’t count.

    =====================================
    WTF do you want the team to do? Bring in another QB so we can WASTE another half season waiting for another retread to get it together?

    The Raiders blew it with JaDavis Russell….that set the franchise back. The Raiders have developed ONE QB in 40 years.

    So you have to go with the retreads and retreads will have issues.

    JC is not as good as the guy opposite him today. But he’s learned and shown some improvement.

    Have to roll with him. You will not find better for the risk!

  38. Plunketthead Says:

    How can Dom Rhodes STILL BE HAUNTING US

    ****************

    I love Morrison, but McClain is a better MLB. If he doesn’t play like top 10 MLB in 2011, then yeas I’d say BUST, only cause he was taken so high in the draft.

    If this guy was a late 1st or am early second……

  40. edward teach Says:

    Some of you people are so stupid it’s ridiculous. I try and be respectful of others’ opinions in here, but this Campbell bashing is just ignorant. Our offensive line decided to take the day off, period. They aren’t blocking anybody.

    Look at Manniung’s imcompletions today. Virtually every one of them has come because of pressure.

    If you can’t see that Campbell is struggling because his offensive line is playing like crap today then you don’t know a damn thing about football.

  41. Plunketthead Says:

    D is starting to play like they usuaally do in the second half

  42. Just Fire Baby Says:

    Next week is going to be a preseason game.

  43. SnB Production Says:

    And to those asking about re-signing Seymour….looking at the run defense I would have to say yes! Yes he was worth the 1st rounder and yes he’s worth re-signing!

  44. 504 Raider Says:

    Nobody is trying to strip the ball.

  45. ArmChair GM Says:

    The defense has given up. They’re playing like a team that realized that they are eliminated from the playoffs today…

  46. olinesux Says:

    without seymour, they may mail it in…

  47. The Dirtee Raccoon Says:

    SD back by 7 with 7 min left!

  48. SnB Production Says:

    THey are going to run the stupid pick again

    Peyton laughes in the face of blitzes.

    ======================================================
    Yup.

    Might as well activate Bruce Campbell and see if he can play.

    Today is the last real game of the season against a credible opponent.

    KC will mail it in next week

  51. SnB Production Says:

    Raiders need to get Champ Bailey in here.

    he needs to be the offseason priority

  52. olinesux Says:

    that was all manning right there

  53. Just Fire Baby Says:

    You know what time it is???

    Jason Campbell stat-padding time!!!!

  54. SnB Production Says:

    Defense got worked over today.

  55. J Hill Says:

    Another 30 plus pts given up by the defense!

  56. 504 Raider Says:

    Hue Jackson needs Art Shell’s notepad right about now.

  57. Plunketthead Says:

    I like how everytime CJ gets burned he waves it off like it was incomplete or out of bounds and pass interference

    Who cares

  59. Raiders for life Says:

    Peyton looks like he’s on vacation and relaxing in Hawaii.

  60. olinesux Says:

    yeah champ deserves to be here

  61. The Dirtee Raccoon Says:

    How the heck can you defend in the endzone with your back to the QB?

  62. SnB Production Says:

    Big hold by Marcel Reece by the way

  63. Plunketthead Says:

    Bruce cant play or he would be in there, besides he is inactive again, Im pretty sure

  64. SnB Production Says:

    The defense has gotten abused all year.

    A 2nd CB is more important than any position on the field given the Raiders rigid defensive philosophy

  65. ArmChair GM Says:

    It’s been fun guys…And thus endeth the season.

    Lot’s of improvement over all as a team, but we are not there yet.

    At least there is a light at the end of the long, dark, tunnel…

  66. Just Fire Baby Says:

    Tebow is going to end up with more passing yards than any other QB today, lol.

  67. morilla Says:

    Bye bye San Diego.

  68. The Dirtee Raccoon Says:

    San Francisco 49ers owner Jed York said Sunday via text message that the team will hire a general manager and ultimately a new head coach, suggesting Mike Singletary will not return next season.

    The 49ers parted ways with former GM Scot McCloughan in March and have operated without someone in that position since. Vice president of player personnel Trent Baalke, whom York said would be a candidate for the job, has handled GM-type decisions.

    Unlock HQ Video HQ video delivered by Akamai
    York, speaking after the 49ers were officially eliminated from playoff contention with a 25-17 loss to the St. Louis Rams, said the team will conduct a GM search that will then lead to another head coach. Singletary could be gone before the 49ers’ season finale against the Arizona Cardinals next week.

    Sources close to several of the top available coaching candidates — ESPN analyst Jon Gruden and Stanford coach Jim Harbaugh in particular — indicated that both men could be interested in the impending vacancy, but they would require a restructured front office and a proven GM heading up the personnel department.

    Singletary is 18-22 in two-plus seasons with the 49ers. He took over as interim coach midway through the 2008 season after Mike Nolan was fired, then was given the job on a permanent basis following a 5-4 finish.

    Singletary led the team to a 8-8 record last season, leading many to pick the 49ers as NFC West favorites. Instead, San Francisco slumped to 5-10 amid quarterback controversies and other issues.

    Yes Alex takes some of the blame but it all starts at the coaching if you don’t have a good head coaching it will only doom the whole team you can not just all the blame on Alex

    ________________________________________________________

    It’s time for John Marshall to go. To many defensive breakdowns this season…

  70. Plunketthead Says:

    On the bright side we kept it close for awhile.
    In years past we would be beaten down and their scrubs would be running all over us

  71. SnB Production Says:

    Plunkett,

    You are right! Bruce Campbell can’t freekn play. You would think someone so bad that they can’t be activated in a game would have bad film that would have prevented a 4th round selection.

  72. morilla Says:

    Don’t blame the defense. They have kept them in this. No offense at all and it’s all field goals.

  73. Just Fire Baby Says:

    We have 70 less yards offensively than we did in the Miami game.

  74. djohnnyg Says:

    All right. I for one am done with Jason freaking Campbell.

    It’s not like we’re playing the 85 Bears defense today.

    He has not moved this offense at all.

    Let’s get a real QB in the offseason please.

    He’s not horrible, but he ain’t that good either. He’s just kind of “there”.

  75. 901Raiders Says:

    John Marshall may need his walking papers. If you’re gonna blitz and show Manning the blitz, your corners need to jam the receivers to throw their timimg off.

  76. sirblitzalot Says:

    Stanford Routt and Chris Johnson are BOTH garbage. They suck!!!

  77. Plunketthead Says:

    TT cant play QB?

  78. olinesux Says:

    cantbell throws the longest two yard incompletion ever

  79. ArmChair GM Says:

    We have no reliable receivers…It is holding our offense back…Must address this in the off season.

    If the Raiders get a new QB next year…I won’t bother watching…..done with these endless transition seasons

  81. Just Fire Baby Says:

    Campbell never saw a check down he never loved.

    It kills our rushing game when he just takes the 4 yard pass, even if there is no pass rush.

    Everyone on the D bunches up the LOS.

  82. Thec07 Says:

    mashall should have been on suicide watch…

  83. Raiders for life Says:

    FUG

  84. RaidingTexas Says:

    Damn, just got home after a four hour drive from Oklahoma. Sucks to see that we were eliminated before the game even started.

  85. buckeyeraider Says:

    The Raiders sure are missing Seymour today. His absence is allowing the Colts to double TK. As a result Manning has all day. Front four can’t get there.

    As a result Marshall has to blitz Manning to even try and pressure him. Peyton is just toying with Raider blitzes.

    He looks like a mischievous child with a magnifying glass and an anthill.

  86. SnB Production Says:

    and another message! THERE ARE NO QBS AVAILABLE!

    We got Camnpbell for a 4th rounder in 2012….that’s the best we got.

    I’ll take him going into the offseason with a year under his belt…then to roll the G-D dice again on another washout QB.

    This is the cost of NOT BEING ABLE to develop your own QB.

    _________________________________________________________

    It’s because Campbell has no faith in his o-line or his receivers. They haven’t played at a consistently reliable level all season…

  88. Just Fire Baby Says:

    Tim Tebow has twice as many yards from scrimmage as our entire team today.

  89. VanHeathen Says:

    Could Campbell lead a receiver one time please?
    he constantly throws behind his receivers.
    GARBAGE!

    Campbell playing like he did at SF.

  91. Thec07 Says:

    saw bruce campbell try to block on spt and he missed even the green grass on the field!

  95. edward teach Says:

    JFB,

    The Colts bunch the LOS because they kow we can’t pass block and Campbell either has to get rid of the ball in about a second andf a half, or get sacked.

    I know you don’t like Campbell, but please try to engage a little football intelligence before you slam him.

    Or drafting a franchise QB who is a syrup head….BRL set us back a half a decade…

  98. buckeyeraider Says:

    JFB,
    It’s not fair to put all this on JC. The Raiders O-line is overmatched. Badly. They’re not exactly run blocking either. Raiders have sprung a couple of long ones to help the average.

    But, overall Indy has owned the l.o.s.
    Both sides.

  99. J Hill Says:

    No reason DHB shouldn’t have had more throws his way today. He’s looked good, and these screens are simply not working.

    The 5 yd sideline route to Ford is kinda baffling as well! Why not have that as an in route and give the guy a chance to do something with the ball.

    Didn’t like the play calling much today.

    Spread them out with Ford, DHB, Schillens and Murphy with DMac in the backfield.

    Try SOMETHING different for goodness sakes!

  100. ENGLANDRAIDER Says:

    Sure Campbell is nervous about the OL but he hasn’t played well either and then there is the play calling.
    I don’t see how you can blame the defense.

  101. djohnnyg Says:

    With JC at QB get used to mediocrity at best. Like I said, he’s not horrible he just isn’t good either. I mean c’mon, this is the Colts defense NOT some top tier D.

    This is the JC you’ll get for every “big” game.

  102. Just Fire Baby Says:

    Teach,

    Campbell had plays where he had plenty of time, and immediately just conceded the 3 yard pass or missed an open receiver.

    Granted he may be a little skiddish because of the O-line issues, but I don’t want a skiddish QB.

    The only debate is who sucks more, the O-line or Jason Campbell, and it is a fierce debate.

    Yes jc would be better than another wash out FA QB. BUT we must draft a young gun and try again!

  107. Just Fire Baby Says:

    Campbell has played like the game was over, with about 10 minutes to go in the game.

  108. VanHeathen Says:

    EVERY JC completion is a ‘back Shoulder throw’ if he intends it or not…pathetic

  109. SnB Production Says:

    Here’s the doggone truth.

    Jason Campbell is not great…and many times not very good…but he’s the best shot a team with no ability to develop QB talent has.

    THe team has poor wide receivers. Period. BG couldn’t do much with them and JC has struggled as well. They need a #1 possession receiver guy. A go-to guy and you all know he is NOT on the roster

    THe team has to run the ball to win. DMAC and Bush are the 1-2 team they need. Hue has to do a better job getting Bush more involved. They have two differnt running styles that need to be exploited

    THe defense can’t work without TWO elite shutdown cornerbacks..like Hayes and Haynes. The Raiders play a strict man2man…you can’t have Routt and CJ as the other CB. THey get beat too often or have to hold

    Need a RG and RT….Mario HEnderson is a disaster on both sides

  110. Just Fire Baby Says:

    33 pass attempts for 147 yards is pee-wee league like.

    Fkn throw it down the field would you!!!!

    To who ???!!!!??????!!!!

  121. The Dirtee Raccoon Says:

    Is Rob Ryan calling the D for Indy?

  122. SnB Production Says:

    If the Raiders cut downon the penalties…they would be more competitive week in and week out too

    Oh well,,game over. We finish 8-8 Cable may keep his job, 7-9 Cable is probably good as gone then we can fantasize about Bill Cohwer & Jim Harbaugh.

    =======================================================

    Make it Harbaugh and he can bring Luck with him.

  124. The Dirtee Raccoon Says:

    C’mon Veeld, you can’t do that!

  125. Raiders for life Says:

    Again, time management is horrible.

  126. The Dirtee Raccoon Says:

    7 points and the onside kick!

  127. 504 Raider Says:

    There will be a 4-3 defensive coordinator available in one week who also has a history with Head Coach Hue Jackson.

  128. SnB Production Says:

    You stick with JC and draft and bring in a UFA QB to develop under Hue Jackson.

    The draft should be dedicated to CB, RT, WR and maybe Center

  129. RaidingTexas Says:

    Do they not practice 2-minute drills?

  130. The Dirtee Raccoon Says:

    Yall say the D quit, I say yall QUIT as fans!

  131. The Dirtee Raccoon Says:

    The peeps talking like the gane is over!

  132. Just Fire Baby Says:

    Get ready for the Tebow love tonight on the circuit.

    He was lights out in the second half.

    Just warning you guys ahead of time.

  133. J Hill Says:

    Amazing that we don’t run this spread offense a lot more. I see nothing wrong with spreading them out, clearing out the underneath stuff, and working the RBs and TEs down the field.

  134. Plunketthead Says:

    Only way swe fire Cable is if Hue is about to go and with all the head coach jobs opening its a good odds that Al has to fire TC to keep Hue

  135. RaiderRockstar Says:

    where is semi pro blogger DMAC?

    Chaz Schilens = 2 catches for 16 yards

    who predicted he would be ready by Week 16 ???

  136. The Dirtee Raccoon Says:

    Game.

    We can do this!!! We worked hard to be here.

    I SAY WE FINISH THE GAME!

  137. 504 Raider Says:

    Here comes Bush with the Z Crockett TD

  138. SnB Production Says:

    MOre freekn penalties!

  139. RaiderRockstar Says:

    JFB,

    we tried to tell THESE PEOPLE that Tebow would be a player …

    side note: how did your boy Bruce do against Houston?

    was that a win or loss? :P

  140. J Hill Says:

    Please someone tell me why this isn’t a big part of our offense????!!!

    3 or 4 WRs, work RBs and TEs underneath!!!!!

  141. Plunketthead Says:

    Amazing we move right down the field with ease

  142. RaidingTexas Says:

    Not bad for “stat padding”.

  143. ENGLANDRAIDER Says:

    You called it Vegas.
    Stat padding time.

    We’re better off paying attention to the fact that we didn’t have ONE first down until 13 mins left in the second quarter-against the 19th defense.

  144. Just Fire Baby Says:

    Ah…..the Jason Campbell era at it’s best.

    Don’t know how we upgrade over him, because he is average and above-average is difficult to find, but he will never QB a playoff game.

    Just doesn’t have “it”.

  145. Plunketthead Says:

    And JC is lights out. He hits everything

  146. SnB Production Says:

    ================================================
    Coaching staff needs to take a course or a seminar “In-Game Adjustments – 101 and 201

    ****

    Cause we don’t split D-MAC wide, and we havn’t had Schilyy tell now!

  148. Plunketthead Says:

    RR

    I was always on the TT bandwagon

  149. RaidingTexas Says:

    Just Fire Baby Says:

    Just doesn’t have “it”.

    ————————-

    And Rex Grossman does have “it”?

  150. Orthodoxdj Says:

    JASON CAMPBELL FOR MVP!!!

    Seriously, though, I like JC as a person. I don’t like to run anyone into the ground. He just doesn’t have a fire inside.

  151. Plunketthead Says:

    I hated that he went to Denver of all places

  152. davidon Says:

    They gotta also work on the 2 min offense and getting plays off quicker..way to much wasted time on that drive

  153. 504 Raider Says:

    ————————————————————————————————————–

    Just warning YOU, JFB. Remember last week you almost got accused of being in love with Tebow. You doing alot of updating on that dude. Somebody gonna pop up and say some stuff that might get them banned.

  154. Plunketthead Says:

    Lousy onside kick seabass

  155. Just Fire Baby Says:

    People now want the spread offense??

    I thought we were going to line up and run the ball, pound them and all that.

    Who told you all week that we needed to throw 35+ times to win??

  156. The Dirtee Raccoon Says:

    ****

    Right, so we gotta take a chace at a FA/Rookie! BOTH. Let Campbell play till we have a better QB

  157. RaiderRockstar Says:

    lets see if Seabass can earn that monster paycheck Al gave him this past offseason …

  158. J Hill Says:

    We’re better off paying attention to the fact that we didn’t have ONE first down until 13 mins left in the second quarter-against the 19th defense.

    ——————————————————

    That’s what happens when our running game gets stuffed and the only pass plays calls are screens that don’t work.

  159. olinesux Says:

    san diegos window has closed

  160. RaidingTexas Says:

    Well, Norv Turner may become available again.

  161. J Hill Says:

    Fitting end right there …

    DAMN good call, lol!

  162. 504 Raider Says:

    Wrong, that was dumb by Peyton. He had a TD easy.

  163. Just Fire Baby Says:

    We ended up with 8 more yards than the Miami game.

  164. olinesux Says:

    almost a good season…oh well been here before…damm raiders.

  165. Raiders for life Says:

    Peyton looks like he’s on vacation and relaxing in Hawaii
    ###############

    I meant relaxing in Oakland.

  166. Orthodoxdj Says:

    KC winning didn’t matter, after all. We didn’t want to take care of business at home. Sad day. I doubt we’ll be the first to win in KC this year. 7-9 is improvement, though.

  167. J Hill Says:

    0-6 in games where we give up over 30 pts!

    Just keep that in mind JFB!

  168. ohioraider Says:

    Jim Plunkett didn’t really have “it” either. The problem with this game, as a microcosm of the season, is a defense that breaks at inopportune moments. Campbell could get this team to the playoffs with some help at WR, center, and some more muscle at the interior of the defense. As for Cable, I think he’s here next year, and why not?

  169. 504 Raider Says:

    Bruce Gradkowski looks like Franco Harris.

  170. SnB Production Says:

    Add Jeff Fisher and Norv Turner to the “to be fired” list.

    and we all know Tom Cable is on the hot seat by virtue of coaching the Raiders

  171. sirblitzalot Says:

    Talk about point shaving. How much did Manning get paid for that slid?

  172. Just Fire Baby Says:

    Look at Bruce talking to Peyton.

    “Bro, I am way better than Curtis Painter and Jim Sorgi, and I will carry your golf clubs on Tuesday.”

  173. ENGLANDRAIDER Says:

    RaidingTexas Says:
    December 26th, 2010 at 4:09 pm
    Well, Norv Turner may become available again.

    ======================================================

    As head coach? No.
    As offensive play caller? More than possible. Al is already sorry he fired him.

  174. buckeyeraider Says:

    Excellent point J Hill.

    These guys can flog JC all they want. The bottom line is football games are won in the trenches. The Colts won both sides of the LOS. They throttled the Raiders run game for the most part.

    Their defense was speedy enough to shut down the Raiders screen game. Plays to Reece and McFadden that might have burnt other defenses for huge gains got dragged down from behind for two yd gains. Again and again.

    Eliminating the running game and the screen game put too much pressure on the o-line vs. Freeney,Mathis and co.

    JC and the WR corps just aren’t good enough to make D’s pay for it. Not yet.

  175. Orthodoxdj Says:

    Ohio Raider,

    I’m going to assume you’re joking. The defense can improve, but seriously, Campbell is to blame for this loss. This was just like the Miami game.

  176. sirblitzalot Says:

    These officials are more like movie directors. They orchestrate drives (ie ticky tack flags turning 4th downs into first downs for the Colts!), and then the commentators hue and cry about how “brilliant” Manning is; and how “the Raiders keep shooting themselves in the foot”. I am so glad I decided not to pay to see this corrupt crap!

  177. sirblitzalot Says:

    Everybody just walks in lockstep and opines on “Campbell lost this” and we got “beat in the trenches” and blah, blah, blah…. The Raiders get screwed every year. No matter how many different HC we get will ALWAYS be the MOST PENALIZED TEAM IN THE NFL. FOREVER!!! MFers
