a steelers fan ignoring facts. expected.
:lol
Coming from a Pats fan? The same fanbase that is in severe denial about their team being caught cheating yet again?
"Yo in New England we call fat people deflators because they want to lose weight or something!"
:lol :lol :lol
i don't know what you're talking about

I totally bought in this preseason. I felt like this team had the most talent on a Dolphins roster in at least 10 years. I thought Tannehill would keep progressing and the defense would step up and become a top 10 unit. I try to be a fan that dwells in the realm of realism but in hindsight it's incredible how overly optimistic I was.
The only consolation for me is that all hope is dead and buried. The losses don't hurt as badly when they're expected.
No prob bro.
But I would suggest you physically destroy your cell phone anyways just in case.

Good morning, Football-GAF.
How many kickers have been fired today?
How many kickers have been fired today?
i do that every time i get a new phone, can't let anyone get these sweet bhole pics
It's like a domino effect. Players get hurt, healthy players get more snaps in game and in practice. Increased workload leads to more injuries and so on. Not much can be done besides monitoring workload, which the Cowboys are already doing.
Suh has to be incredibly happy that Dolphin fans are giving up and he gets to pick up his giant ass check for the rest of the year without actually doing anything. Once the tears dry most people are focusing on Philbin with maybe a few wondering if they should look to replace Tannehill. No one is talking about Suh. Not even Lion fans. And he gets to just sit back and cash those checks...
His agent earned every fucking penny.

For the record I think Polamalu was a great talent. Just paying homage to, in my opinion, some of the best times on NFL GAF. No offense to the newer crop of posters either but things get...weird here on occasion.
Anyway.
Anyway.
Yeah.
...but.
All hope is not actually gone quite yet. If we fire Philbin we have a very manageable schedule ahead of us that is nothing near as hard as it appeared before the season. A good coach could come in and get us to 9 or 10 wins here, honestly. That won't happen, but it's not completely insane.
We won't do that though. I'm worried we won't even fire Philbin. If we don't we'll lose the next 5, before winning just enough against tanking teams so as not to have a top-10 pick.
I genuinely believe Philbin is 80% of the problem with our team, though. If we could just solve that...
It's impossible to judge Suh or anyone else with the clown show Coyle is running right now. I'm not going to throw him under the bus after 4 games. Our DLine played like this during the second half of last year. Suh comes in and plays like the other guys. Seems like the consistent element is Coyle, not Suh.

I don't know what to think about Suh. On the one hand his personality is very driven and self-motivated so it's hard for me to picture him pulling a Haynesworth. On the other hand he flat out quit on some plays yesterday.
Can you stop labeling a whole fanbase the same?
lol

Playcalling is atrocious. If they don't trust Weeden to throw longer than 5 yards then put someone else in there. The offense is killing the whole team, especially the defense. So many 3 and outs.
And just so there are no hard feelings I also think that looking back, Raji was always a very obese football player who occasionally could push things, but not often enough to make a difference most of the times.
I am sure people will remember him fondly in Green Bay for a long time.
It was kind of funny though when Hyde pushed his fat ass into the ground in the first half though.

Don't do this.. This is going to enter Kas levels of delusion. Just don't. Learn from your browns fans and just accept the sadness and learn the mantra, there's always next year.
good coaches don't grow on trees, and good coaches that join a team mid-season and bring a team from 1-3 to 10-6 or 11-5 don't exist. good luck phinbros!

Let it go, man. This season is a wash. All we can hope for now is a clean sweep of the FO instead of another worthless half measure, aka a "Ross Special."
This is a mstd alt?
Who?

Wat.
As much I give shit to Watt at least he legitimately seems to try despite being on the worst team in football. Suh doesn't give a shit and that's always been obvious.
I don't want to be lazy, but I was going to basically type up a very similar post. If they hit on draft picks regularly when Brees was still a very good QB, then they wouldn't be in this hole, but they missed and now find themselves with young raw talent around an aging Brees. This happens more often than not.
When you're successful your scouts/FO get raided, there's a drop off, so not only do have to replenish on field talent but you have to get fresh talent in the back of the house. That's why Ozzie Newsome is one of the fucking best.
They do have a bye week. I'm sure someone can come in and install an entirely new offense and defense by the 18th.
Yeah, knocking a minute and a half off the clock and "settling" for the field goal IS the dagger there. Instead those 3 plays only took 15 seconds (Jennings was equally stupid to take that first down rush out of bounds inexplicably) and they turned the ball over.
The number of times late in games that the Giants would be better off simply kneeling the ball every play just in order to avoid their own stupidity is alarming.
I apologize if I offended you and will now preface all of my statements about the Pats by saying that the vast and overwhelmingly majority of Pats fans are in denial about their team being a bunch of dirty cheats.
I don't have evidence of any normal Patriot fans who you would ever want to have in your house, but I think it is safe to assume that at least one must exist somewhere.
Well, yeah, this is true.
Which is why this is true.
BUT if we could just fluke our way into a good coach... Fuck it I'd take Sparano back. I find his fist pumps endearing after enduring Philbin's 'queasy' thousand yard stare for 4 years.

No, you'll end up with Jim Schwartz and like it.
Reminds me of Ron Wolf's tree.
I was trying to be nice but you actually lived in Boston so I will have to take you at your word.
Honestly their reaction has been incredibly embarrassing but no one in the lamestream media has really taken the time to take the dump on Boston sports that they deserve.

My opinion of him changed a lot when I started reading articles about him and listening to interviews. You could just argue he's pooling the wool over my eyes but I think he's a hell of a worker and doesn't get enough credit for it.
i am a good guest, i will bring sweet treats on occasion.
The answers is 8 but don't except us to do all of your homework for you.

What
Don't worry, you probably have pictures of Michael Jordan all over your house and we all know black people are Bostonian repellant, none would accept your invitation anyway.
Man. I was just about to bring over a pizza and everything.
I can't call myself a Pats supporter as I haven't been to game, but I have followed them since 2007. The Pats that year were the team that got me into liking NFL for the first time. I do believe Pats have cheated and do think Brady was luckly to escape a ban. I also believe many other teams have cheated but haven't been caught. I just try and forget about the cheating and enjoy the game.
:jnc
not always
More like the stoppable force meets the movable object. I'll let you decide which one we are.
You're pretty much the epitome of a Pats fan
They are so hit or miss they come out great in the first half but after half time it just all falls apart on both sides of the ball. I wonder if cassel will get some snaps next week against the pats. McClain and Hardy will finally play and I'm crossing my fingers Lee won't have to sit next week out.

No it isn't.. It's 42.
He's always been trying despite the shittiness. Everyone around town knows that. I don't get why some people think he doesn't work hard when times are bad.
#ColtsCulture J/K It was some Colts employee that was being awful.
