realistically if they win the SB or go deep into playoffs or become relevant no one will remember the 0-16. especially them. so that is kind of silly.
Indy is just atrocious schmoo, they had some competitive games earlier in the yr but the last couple they just have been killed, gms over by half time.
What solution are you supporting? That we tank the season? That veterans with an uncertain future next year tank so we can draft Luck and they can get waived? What I don't understand is your logic. People keep talking about SFL like it's some magical fairy ride we are on with absolutely no logic attached to it.
I'll simplify. Which would you rather have: 1) A 2 or 3 win season? 2) The opportunity to select the best QB prospect in the past 25 years? Better yet, ask yourself why this team has failed every year since Dan Marino retired.
dude WHAT? XD that is idiocy..... if a franchise becomes a power house... brigns home rings... brings fear to their opponents as a force and a wildfire you think anyone including them cares about that season? if we played detroit and they spanked us like saints did to indy do you think wed go "HURR HURR you went 0-16!!!!" well maybe you would but no. thats not how it works in the real world
What the hell does it matter what I want? This isn't fan pick your QB day. Andrew Luck will be the #1 pick. The Miami Dolphins, despite a very poor 0-7 start have been in nearly every game and in all probability, won't be picking 1st. It doesn't matter what you or anyone else wants.
Love that we finally get a holding call when its irrelevant... even though Wakes been held, so has Misi today when the calls could have helped us and we didnt get them... Thanks refs.
Congrats to this team. Congrats to Matt Moore on a very impressive performance. They didn't quit, even though a lot of the fans did. I knew they weren't that bad. I also knew they were going to have a hard time getting to the first overall pick with the Colts just really upping the ante every week. The Colts will get there, they will draft Andrew Luck. Hopefully we'll be in position to draft Matt Barkley.
The point is to discuss this team, how we play and our players. Not to pin our hopes on an unlikely scenario to draft a QB, 7 weeks in the season. Rooting for them to lose to hope that the fairy tale comes true. We may still get Luck. Or we may not. There isn't a damn thing we can do about it. If you propose the team should tank for Luck then I'd say you're crazy. I would love to have Luck. But I'm not going to cry about it 8 weeks in to the season. Miami is the best 1-7 team I've seen in a long time. They still suck and we still need to draft a QB, but I'm not going to get down on the team for winning. That is assinine if you ask me.
Niiiiiice........Now I get to watch the Giants D knock the snot out of Brady, It doesnt get any better than this.
Dear god, no one here has said the team has tanked or is trying to tank. We WANT the team to lose so we can get Luck. Just like when the teams is decent we WANT them to win. If talking about what we WANT to happen on a message board is wrong, then this message board should only be used for reporting news that has happened, because apparently we aren't allowed to express our opinions. Winning the super bowl is an unlikely feat, should we not root for that either?
I want to win a million dollars. Should I sit here and post about it all day, endlessly repeating the same drivel? You can express your opinions about SFL from today until week 17, it still doesn't change two facts: The Dolphins are better than their 1-7 record. Indy is worse than their 0-8 record, if that is even possible. Maybe you should remember why you root for this team and why you think it's appropriate to act like the sky falling after we finally win a game after 10 tries.
We've failed because we haven't taken a QB in the first round. There's a lot of good QB's in this draft outside of Luck. Marino himself wasn't taken #1 overall.
Nothing you do on this message board changes anything about what happens on this team. Why even post here if not to vent? Isn't that THE ENTIRE POINT OF A MESSAGE BOARD?!
I would want a win today since today is the present! Wishing for Luck at this point in the season is just that. A wish.
If I could simulate till the end of the season, I wouldn't mind sucking for Luck. However since I have to watch every game, I am going to root for victories.
That was a nice win and a nice game to watch. If we're going to lose draft position I'd rather see some domination over some 9-6 crap.
Why do the SFLers gotta piss on everbodies fruitloops because we won a game? If wanting us to lose helps you make it through this abysmal season power to you, but why denigrate other fans that are happy to get a win for a change?
