Guess I'm not a fan then! Oh well!
yeah i have always been and probably always will. whether they win or lose, i have something to talk about and enjoy all the ups and downs. i...
how quickly people forget how terrible Seattle is.
actually the Patriots won that year because of their awesome defense. Brady wasn't really that amazing in 2001. in fact i think the argument could...
because people like to make stuff up on the internet.
yeah apparently we do. and it seemed very possible to be able to do that if not for the drive-killing plays.
well i guess if we're just going to pencil in a loss next week, why bother playing it
yeah, only Jake Long seemed to really do his job with the pass-rush last night
yup, we put up 400+ yards...when we were NOT running the wildcat, or some gimmicky reverse, or when Ronnie Brown wasn't throwing the ball, or when...
i have no idea how we even kept it this close with the playcalling and special teams as laughable as they were.
Henne was good. Henning was as worse as he's ever been. Maybe moreso. So many stupid pointless calls.
if he were the quarterback of my team, i'd want him to say exactly what he said.
yeah, but there was really no reason to think that last year. so, you just made a guess and you happened to be right. congrats i suppose.
last time Miami got consistent love was before the '06 season. i'm find with them not drenching us with their love and affection.
Premier left tackle. Best #1 pick since Peyton Manning. Completely shut down Jared Allen, mostly by himself. Most here wanted the other Long over...
Minnesota was in the NFC Championship game last year. they have Brett Favre as their quarterback. they are now 0-2. gripe all ya want, but it...
:no:
Who in the world has called Roethlisberger great?
There's absolutely no way in hell they would get rid of Dallas/Washington for Miami/Houston. Not a chance at all.
I think Henning called a great game today.
I'm absolutely terrified of Chris Johnson.
If New England wins at Buffalo: New York Jets: Must Win out AND have Patriots Lose out AND have Miami Lose once. Miami: Clinch if (Win out...
Yes, we can and we will.
Too bad the Bucs are hosting the Jets. Bad timing.
I'm sure they would, but they'd be a lot less upset if we did it over someone else. Me, I don't care much either way. Nothing can take away from...
i...i don't know what to say.
ditto...it's embarrassing to be a Canes fan at times
it's he and Calvin Johnson in a footrace. the Lions could wind up with both. that'd be impressive.
Ingram isn't even the best RB in his conference.
sure is!
Ingram has been an average RB this year. certainly compared to Gerhart, it's not even remotely close.
it's probably just that he's an arrogant SOB who plays for Notre Dame. talent-wise, he's one of the best.
ironically all of the juniors declaring will make it a very deep draft pool, thus ensuring that many players will be drafted considerably lower...
aside from money (which OU can give him anyway), there's no reason to leave Oklahoma for Notre Dame. none.
The finalists have been announced: 1. Toby Gerhart 2. Mark Ingram 3. Colt McCoy 4. Ndamukong Suh 5. Tim Tebow Tebow shouldn't be there....
actually the Heisman is about the QB or RB on the best team in the country, apparently. only 4 times has it gone to any other position. also,...
but not more than Suh :up: [img]
and CJ Spiller :up:
if McCoy wins the Heisman i will vomit all over my television
so far, 3.5 sacks tonight for Suh. and several tackles for losses. just an amazing amazing player.
trade everything for Suh
bill belichick. tom brady. that has something to do with it. Weis clearly knows how to call a good game on offense. coaching isn't his...
the Colts had a terrible defense the year they won the Super Bowl. however, in the playoffs, they had one of the best defenses, and went on a...
no, you're wrong, cut henne
yup, he is.
yup. the 99 Rams had one of the best offenses ever, but they won because of their defense. need proof? the next year, in 2000, their defense...
wanting a championship and actually expecting THIS team to win one are two different things. Miami won the division with an incredibly easy...
:tantrum: GRRR I'M TOUGH ON THE INTERNET
wow, you're already penciling wins for next year before this season is over and the schedule is actually announced. i like.
whoever makes judgments on someone's "true fan" status is a person who will do nothing with the GED hanging on their wall
i'll root for the Saints because the Saints are awesome
Al Davis avoided drafting a QB in the first round for 40 years, only to break that streak with JaMarcus Russell. he won't make that mistake again.
no, no he has not
it's scary how predictable the threads are after a loss.
i wouldn't say he should be fired, but the play-action on every 3rd and long is very very ridiculous
nope! sorry, not a good reason. he's a young quarterback and that's what they do. oh, and the turnovers weren't even his fault. again, sorry to...
youve yet to provide a good reason as to why we should get rid of Henne. let me know when you can think of one, i'll be right here, waittting for...
some of the passes Henne makes, we haven't seen since Marino. once he gets more experience and players around him, he'll be one of the best QB's...
i guess you don't know about Gus Johnson, huh?
no one really cares whose fault the INT's were, to say it's time to move on from Henne after this is STUPID. he's young and clearly has all the...
at times it was, yes. but a few times in one game doesn't account for much.
this league is driven by teams who know their talent and what to do with it. they run the ball because they're a better running team than passing...
they are not biased. why the hell would they be biased for a crappy Buffalo team? you see and hear what you want to see and hear. you lack...
good teams, like the Colts, always cut their best young developing players immediately after poor games. that's what they did with Peyton...
so you're saying Polite sucks? :(
let's never see Joey Haynos again
i like rigged thursday night games
cut 'em, move on with life
you'd expect a credible news source like NFL Draft Bible to fess up!
Ndamukong Suh is a bad, bad man. hoping for some sort of draft miracle where Miami gets him...
i enjoy postdraft mocks the best ;) no, they're definitely roiders. with Cushing it goes back to his high school days, where everyone did it...
that PFT article just looks like the kind of baseless threads that pop up around here. he's just saying "what if," basically.
Mort was just giving his opinion.
this was Gruden's philosophy as a coach. unfortunately he didn't know how to groom a quarterback so his terrible passing game never did anything.
Bills fire Dick Jauron i know this is NFL news, but it hits close to home in the AFC East. NFL Network's Jason La Canfora reporting.
cut 'em.
it's a nice theory except there's NO proof of ANY of this on the film, and in fact the only proof on the film is what was originally called, and...
three words: Tampa Bay Buccaneers
that's pretty cool.
because fumbles going either way are normal parts of the game. a ref making one of the stupidest decisions i've ever seen isn't.
[img]
absolutely horrific call.
we need a receiver regardless.
there always has to be that post like this that provides entertainment for other logical fans of the team. kudos! it's well-appreciated.
he's made some incredible plays despite his horrific receivers. can't ask for much more out of a guy who's only started a handful of games.
yes, except that has nothing to do with anything. i was simply commenting on how well he performed, Henne had nothing to do with it. not...
he played great despite this. bad sign for Miami.
Simms is usually pretty good, or at least competent, but Lynch is bad. but, he hasn't been doing it too long, give him a chance. and yes, they...
i'm not sure what that has to do with anything?
he held onto the ball forever because their receivers never got open. that's a sad sign, considering our defense. when they finally DID get open...
yes, Freeman looks like the real deal. unfortunately his receivers are somehow worse than Henne's. incredible, really.
Henne has made many good plays and decisions, he's doing great out there despite a few awful things. he's learning. he clearly has the pocket...
because he's done so much to make you think this?
what a miserable game helped by that horrible call on Clayton that resulted in a turnover and some horrible drops by the Bucs' receivers....
it's an unsubstantiated rumor, didn't happen
it's easy to rag on Winslow, but he's very good and pretty much the Bucs main option. watch out for Sammie Stroughter though, he's their best...
yeah but they also make big plays.
i pretty much only buy the crappy knockoffs. the more embarrassing they look, the better!
Ted Ginn vs Michael Clayton this week. not sure who sucks more and is hated by their fanbase more
why in the world is the Buffalo area getting this game...
he's a quarterback and he's facing our defense...thus, he's automatically a threat.
i want a QB who plays great, i don't care how his face looks in a helmet.
Ginn's not getting a bust and a speech, jeez. the NFL wants to celebrate all the great things that has happened in the league, and a player having...
they were honoring the '79 team and introducing their Ring of Honor
i dig bruschi's arbitrary toughness ranking system
what does this even mean? did we "deserve" respect before? do we "deserve" respect now? who cares? i don't care about "respect" from ESPN and...
how do you determine strength of schedule?
http://espn.go.com/blog/nflnation/post/_/id/11294/jason-taylor-low-class-jets-should-shut-up "To score a touchdown in New York against the Jets...
yup, no disrespect at all. it's gotten to the point on this board that any comment from the opposition that's not flowery praise is complete...
can you link to that? i don't remember him saying that. i remember him saying Brown was the best back he scouted since Tomlinson, though. also,...
since 2001, the Patriots are 7-1 following a bye week, with an average margin of victory at 15.1 points. they're always tough in this...
i think the NFL has a rule where if a team in the home market is playing a home game on one channel they won't play another game on the other...
the Bucs are playing at 1, i guess...gotta go to the bar then. first game that won't be playing in Tampa this year
enjoy [IMG]
i think if we score more points than the remaining opponents on our schedule, we'll be in good shape to win them all
i've never seen such unprofessionalism as I've seen in the Jets following these two losses. it's incredible. it's almost like they want to be...
and Jason Taylor has 6 career fumble returns for touchdowns, an NFL record! congrats! :)
while i agree there should be more heat on Bess, it's pretty obvious why there's not. A) he was an undrafted free agent, B) he's not been on the...
yes, the wide receivers were bad because Ginn wasn't out there. that explains why they looked so fantastic the rest of the season.
i have no problem with saying that he sucks as a wide receiver and getting demoted to only focus on kickoffs allowed him to make bigger plays on...
:confused1:
no one wants Ginn to fail. they just realize that he WILL fail and don't want to see him on the field for us failing.
he's a terrible route runner who drops big passes and also sucks in the return game. soooo.....why is he still around?
at least Russell was benched today. :pointlol:
Bess had a very poor game. first time i've seen that.
the only reason not to cut him is because of the lack of anyone else on the roster to replace him. he'll probably be cut in the offseason though.
congrats to you, HS. there's no doubt that the Saints played a big role in the comeback here. they've made those big plays all year. kudos,...
i'm really not one to pile on a guy. i think relentless bashing can be ridiculous. and i liked Ted Ginn before today. i dunno why, he just seems...
[img] [img]
i think it's pretty obvious why people would be more upset with a top 10 pick who sucks over a player acquired via 4th round trade who sucks....
play-action on 4th and 13. pretty much all you need to know about the playcalling this game.
either WR or S. it's a toss-up, really.
i can understand people who want to point the blame elsewhere besides Ginn. no doubt, there's plenty of blame to go around. but you can NOT...
at least Fasano wasn't a top 10 pick for us.
[img][img][img][img][img][img]
A) the first pick-six was his fault and B) he sucks.
no reason to think that now.
i loved it. wouldn't mind Sparano doing it at all. it's good to have a sense of humor and have perspective.
well, they're fans...doesn't really matter if they look past.
in a perfect world I'd like Pennington to be our backup for the rest of his career, but i'm sure he wants to start somewhere, so i wish him luck!
also, unrelated to Miami, but the Patriots are close to getting Steven Jackson, per some Boston station.
i'd love to have him.
latest rumor is Miami getting both Bowe and Dorsey.
hopefully the Saints will take a page from the Bills playbook and put in a terrible tackle to ensure that Wake has a great game.
i only wish we used more quick passes and screens to get him a chance to run past everyone with some good blocking like the Bears do with Hester....
are women known for clutching their ankles? i'm not seeing the correlation.
there's no way to know. we may try desperately to get a trade going but no one wants what we're asking for or what we're selling. or, we may not...
on offense, best bet is to play it like the Colts game, i guess. just run the ball and pray we can keep the ball out of Drew Brees' hands. on...
i think most people that wanted Quinn just loved the idea of finally drafting a "Franchise Quarterback," and i think a lot of them fooled...
yup. we didn't lose because we couldn't pass the ball, we lost because our defense got off the field in 5 plays every drive after giving up a very...
indeed. the Wildcat is far more old school and "true" to football than Jaws' ideal offense. not that there's any "true" offense. whatever...
the main point of a gimmick play is that you don't know that it's coming. the Wildcat is OBVIOUSLY going to happen several times a game, so i'm...
Jaws thinks running the ball out of the I-Formation is a gimmick that will never win any games.
if it's between Baltimore and Miami sending a 2nd to KC, they'd probably take our deal since Baltimore is more likely to have a lower 2nd rounder....
i think Ronnie can get MVP consideration without the big numbers. because chances are, he won't have them. he'll have a lot of games with 60-70...
there was also a lot of Braylon Edwards consideration. and when Cadillac had the best 4-game start in NFL history, the boards were RIDICULOUS...
the point is that Roth's biggest talent is stopping the run, and we're doing GREAT in that area without him. so he's become despensible for the...
maybe if Henne had played last year, it might be a different story, because he would've been playing Pennington's role of "decoy" receiver during...
Matt Roth for Cribbs is a fair deal. they should throw in a 5th as well to make up for the one we lost for Thigpen.
it's the first time in a while for the Dolphins that i was initially scared by what was happening on the field, but then immediately telling...
this is RIDICULOUS. we've seen "terrible" games at the QB position. and Sanchez had some GREAT throws and great decisions last night. not even...
i thought Sanchez did some great things last night....didn't look like a rookie at all. meh, i don't like the mindless bashing...
if we have a career backup at QB who can come in and play well at any given time, i'll gladly give up a 5th for that.
boy, if the Wildcat didn't already have enough options...it could get quite ridiculous if we had a receiver who could line up under center, too.
as much as people want to call it a gimmick, it's actually one of the only real pure, old school plays still out there. people seem to think that...
imagine if Henne had a really great receiver, too...
i think Berman is glad the game got high ratings and he got more exposure and possibly more money as a result.
i really do hope their defense IS that good.
yeah, the big plays are memorable, but he wasn't sacked once, and didn't seem to be pressured at ALL at ANY point. compare that to last week! some...
yes!!! finallly!!!!!!!!!!!
stopping 10% of an offense is kind of a big deal, though. it doesn't sound like much, but it's a very important element. especially when that 10%...
one of many reasons to kick himself in the balls for that season. :tongue2:
remember the reports before the '05 draft about Saban DEFINITELY drafting Edwards? thank god those weren't true. :)
i think it's a bit ridiculous to compare the teams the two players were on. of course Ricky never had the team success Larry did, the talent...
well it's good to see an unbiased and impartial observer, like Henning, making such a comment.
thanks for this very necessary post
it's pretty obvious if you look at his stats from last season and how well he played that there's plenty of reason to have optimism. and he's a...
man, we got 3 very unique young talented prospects at the quarterback position. can't think of any team that can say that right now. i'm very...
yeah because teams are SOOO willing to trade their good WR's and DB's. Thigpen is a good backup QB. he's perfect for what we need him to be,...
the wildcat is as much a gimmick as a play-action pass is. it's simple misdirection and getting the defense to bite on something and taking...
