Reno has the lowest Power Rating of any team with playoff aspirations. 8-6 and a PR of 38, picked to lose against California. It's all bulletin board fodder for the upcoming playoffs. Collela may sit these last 2 games.

[Kobeck]

No appoligies needed for winning the division. Not like Reno backed in with a perfect division record.

Once POs start it is a single elimination tournament and the hot team has a better chance than the "best" team - IMO

[Jave]

GG ANCHORAGE!! You guys just overpowered us.....Ohh wait, the games haven't been run yet! Guess I will just go ahead and post the congrats now....

Another crap year that can't end quick enough.....I'm sure Anchorage will stomp us as well.....

[VitoStallion]

there's always next year

[r00k]

On pins and needles ... a do or die game ... and I totally tried something new and can't believe that I did it in such a critical game. But the time is now to either find the magic for a playoff run or not. Rolling the dice and hoping to give some Viper snake eyes to the Orgres.

[Matt]

just a little late here getting my ass out of bed.

we had a wedding last night and i have a tendancy to over indulge at times.

[Matt]

not quite done watching my ass whooping but.... how am i supposed to deal with this?

[Matt]

Burger was sacked 6 times, hurried 6 times, and knocked down 3.
just painful

[Matt]

oh, and good game TUFFY

[Matt]

now I'm looking at playoff scenerio's and based on things that I think I know, I've already made the playoffs and can only change the opponents for a wild card game at this point. Will it be Lansing or Reno 911?

[SteveBsFan]

Very happy with the way we played. 45 pass attempts by Virgil, only 18 complete. I wish I could have that type of pass defense every week.

The sack record, set by Adam Land in 2003 has finally been broken by Phil Miller and his 17.5 (with one game to go). There are only 2 records remaining from that season (FG's and Tackles), neither will be broken this season.

[DDT]

We just DO NOT know how to win. My staff looks good but I think about cutting them loose. TX wins on a last second 30 yd FG. Good game Texas.

[Pirates]

Got a last minute win over STL. Kind of surprised after our 5 game skid to see everyone play well. We have a shot of going 8-8 and salvaging our dignity. Kind of.

[Jave]

How does Otis Peterson NOT get POTY? This game distributes awards in a very odd way.
