Wow, there is a whole lot of anti-Prisco sentiment on this site, some justifiable, but a lot of it just plain off-based. The poor guy talks about how he's claimed all along that the Bengals are for real, and then you see a ton of people saying otherwise. Have any of you posters actually read his columns? There are a select number of jouranlists out there who have said that th

The grades for the Tampa Bay - Green Bay game show once again the Pete must be using the "Prisco Curve" to grade the teams rather than grading according to a standard based on the NFL as a whole. He seems to grade teams based on how HE thinks they SHOULD have played rather than how the game actually went. How can one team get an "A" (Tampa Bay) and the other get an "F"

I personally don't see anything wrong with running up the score, especially when a team is at home. Give the fans something to cheer about, scoring touchdown after touchdown. In reality they were getting an offense, that was terrible the week before, reps to gel. That kind of work can be invaluable. I don't feel a team should have to change the way their offense plays i

• I saw the Cincinnati Bengals show once again what I thought all along: They are for real.
Really, Prisco? You thought that all along? What about when you said this:
That was after the Bengals heartbreaking week 1 loss to the Broncos. So if you reall

Seriously, did you want them to go for it on 4th and 11 from the Dallas 32? Were you watching the game? The Eagles O-line was not going to hold up on an obvious passing down like that. At least with the field goal, the Eagles got to kick the ball, and if the D mans up and stops somebody then they get the ball back with 2 minutes left with a chance to run the 2 min offense.

Dear Prisco
Please buy Nfl Sunday Ticket, or watch the highlights anywhere, at Espn, Nfl Network. But please watch the games, obviously you don't know what you are talking about, you just read some stats and puts them down however you think it happened. I know you are a hater of some teams, or maybe you don' hate them, and you just don't accept what they are. Pl

I would like to know why all you people that bash prisco everyday read his articles. If they are that bad then why do you not only waste your time reading them, but why do then have to post about it? Go to espn or foxsports and don't post on here and waste my day by having to read your posts. That being said no sports writer is perfect. Yes prisco does not like farve and I think h

Okay Brett Favre, be upset with the Packer organization; but you have some unfinsished business with the Packer fans. You need to apologize to them for what you put them through for 4 years. You said that you went to the church prayed before the game in Minnesota? Well, you'd better stay there all weekend in Green Bay, because there is no place else to hide from the people tha

How do you give the C- to the team that won and a C to the team that lost? Just because they fell behind early? So did NOLA and the Colts. Hopefully that is a mistake, but knowing Prisco he meant it to be that way. He is a joke.

Huh... I will never understand how Prisco grades some of these teams. What's the purpose of having Power Rankings and GPA if they don't match... or even close at times? He has the Cards at 9th in his power rankings and at a 2.24 GPA... Meanwhile he has the 49ers at 22nd in his rankings with a 2.39 GPA... His entire article is talking up the Houston Texans who rank a solid 2.50 GPA accor

Some of the things Prisco writes to try justify his grades is absolutely fiction. I mean what part of his colon does he pull this stuff from. Here is an example from the Vikings/Steelers grades.
The two big turnovers were the difference. Brett Favre had those. The offense had trouble for much of the game. They couldn't get Adrian Peterson going. Th

First off, I am not a Giants fan, but it is funny to see so many people jump off their band wagon. They continue to do what they do best...run the football.
The Giants will be fine. The defense has had some woes, and the passing game isn't what people would have hoped for. The Giants will still win the division because the can run the ball so well. As winte

The Pats were up 38 - 0 with 1:16 to go in the 1st half. They still had Brady in the game when they took the field. They lined up with 5 WR's in the shotgun formation. They remained in the shotgun with 5 WRs for the entire drive. They went no-huddle and even used a timeout. As we know, they scored another TD to go up 45-0 with 17 seconds left in the half.

If this were the column of a well-respected journalist who showed that he knew what he was talking about week in and week out, these grades would hold some value to me. Unfortunately, this is Pete Prisco. The ONLY reason I read his articles nowdays are to get a few quick laughs at his incompetency. It is also fun to bash him on these message boards. So at least he has

I'm no Favre fan but I knew Petey has been laying in the weeds all season waiting for Brett to have a few turnovers so he could write about it. When Brett goes 6-0 he barely gives him any credit...just glosses over the win. But since he rode him so hard for coming back, it's been eating at him to get back at Brett the second he has a so-so game.
