You know what pisses me off to no end. The Dolphins have been spending all these resources and money on an O-Line for the last decade and they still are suspect. Meanwhile New England replaces Stork with an Undrafted Rookie and they have a total of 3 rookies on the line and they just chugg along like they got Dallas' O-line there. I don't get it. Is it bad coaching?? Bad personnel finds??
I guess I won't be on Facebook until Football season ends or the Pats lose. This is ridiculous. Fandom in NE is in a frenzy and this win is making it unbearable. They all think that the Pats are mad and will win it all again and after tonight (seeing the score, not the game) I guess that might happen. At least the past few years the Pats looked bad to start the season - this year with a worse team they are perfect on offense. I hate to say this but we might be looking at 2007 all over again where they win by double digits every time. If the Dolphins can knock them out this season it will be such a sweet success but this does not look good. And what happened to the refs being tougher on the Pats - from what I read here its as bad as usual.
Well my bet covered thanks to roethlisberger garbage time touchdown. But i still feel like i lost cause the patriots won. Such a sick feeling inside..
If i didnt like the dolphins so much i would seriously quit watchhing and stick to college football. This league is as crooked as FIBA. Im so turned off by the NFL. Ive had it.
What hurts the most is that it seems like this whole offseason did nothing to disrupt the patriots. They look like a 12-14 win team.
The bigger they are, the harder they fall. I have been waiting for this team to collapse. I want to see them have a losing record and become a non factor while the Dolphins take over as the team to beat - like in the 70's - 80's. Is that too much to ask? It is 100% Belichick. Things won't change until he is gone.
Defense looks soft. Pit was without bell pouncey and Bryant too. How the PAts score 28 without a single great WR or good running backs is crazy. They have Gronk and while Edelman is good that's about it.
I can see Brady getting roughed up next week for sure against the Bills.. that defense isn't soft like the post Lebeau defense the Steelers have... Funny.. they pushed Polamalu into retirement saying they have better safeties... um... no you don't, even at his old age... and even if he can't play safety... i'm sure he could have transited to linebacker just fine.. they pushed lebeau out too.. to run that ****ty tampa 2 that was carved today...
Gronk is the greatest TE in NFL history. The guy is an uncoverable monster when healthy. Going to score 20+ TD this season if he doesn't get hurt, book it.
Yeah but he's just one guy and they're about mediocre everywhere else BUT QB. Crazy how hard we struggle to hit 28 but they do it with the teams KNOWING they need to stop Gronk.
Before the Tuck Rule game, I hated the Jets and Bills but thought the Pats were just "meh". Before that season I rarely saw any Pats fans, even at games when we played them. Then after that season and ever since, I've grown to hate the Patsys more than ever hated the Jets and Bills. These days those teams are just "meh". IMO if NYJ or BUF won a SB and did it legitimately, it would suck, but I'd accept it. But its different with the Pats, their wins are illigetimate, they should have asterisks next to their SBs and all other accomplishments. Ever since that 2001 season, which was after 9/11 btw("patriotism" was all the rage), it just seemed like from then on the NFL hand picked them to be "America's Team" and they got away with everything, from changing rules to favor them, calls going their way, even outright cheating. It's nearly become on pro wrestling level with the obscurdity and rigged outcomes. If I didnt love football and my Dolphins so much I would've quit long ago. And the NFL knows that.
