Alligatorjandro is no longer pure.
Dalton is better than Stafford confirmed
You just been on a 48 hour straight rampage of trolling
Must've been all those "Fuck the Ravens" posts last week.

I just thought it was strange when you threw out this:
as if the game wasn't tied at the end of regulation, and as if those two turnovers on punt returns weren't huge factors in the outcome of that game.
That's all he can do now his team lost. He seems to like the Giants though so I expect extreme trolling against the Pats in the Super Bowl.
So he thinks he's going to throw 7 tds?
That was a great post, Wellie, especially the Eli part. Eli took a pounding that would have had every non-raping QB cowering in fear. He was amazing.
But SF sucked on offense all year. Alex Smith is Tebow. Their great special teams (save Williams) had you facing a long field almost every drive. Their defense was dominant against a very good offense. They won those types of games this year.
It came down to the old cliche that more games are lost than won. The 49ers made the plays to lose the game. Blew two very easy INTs. The first muff was undoubtedly an unforced error. Second fumble was a good play by the Giants but also, Williams was careless with the ball.
As a neutral observer I do agree that the 49ers lost that game. Now I'm not saying that they were the better team and choked it away. SF never made the plays to win it. But neither did the Giants. It was two even teams, and SF made the mistakes that cost them the win.

He can't mean numbers-wise, right? He won't even begin to touch his stats from that Broncos game or the first game of the season against my Dolphins. And those are just two games from this year...
that's the son of the GB coordinator's old rape case from a few years ago I assumed.

So somehow you agree with me but still are saying that you disagree with me. Again, where did i say the giants dominate. Please.
Saying that the fact giants had no turnovers was the biggest difference in the game some how means that giants dominated in everything else?
9ers win when they cause turnovers. Every game they won this year they forced a turnover. They had opportunity where eli put ball in DB's hand but did not capitalize. When they win they do. And yesterday they didn't.
Again, please show me where I said Giants Dominated. I beg you .. Please.
maybe he's going by TOTAL QBR
As a terp alum and a wizards fan as well this hasn't been a good year for me sports wise. The ravens were all I had. I'm tired of there's always next year.

Interesting tag you have there indeed.
But you do like to defend the truth, so that's cool.

You never explicitly stated that the Giants dominated the game (obviously), it was just something I inferred (perhaps wrongly) after I read your post about the game. I just thought you were trivializing the key turnovers that the 49ers had on special teams and focusing purely on the fact that the Giants didn't turn the ball over, as if the 49ers had no chance of winning that game because of the turnovers they failed to create.
I really hope it works out, it's been too long since the Dolphins had a coach worth keeping (or a QB).
that's what it's all about
Rex and Tannenbaum trading all your picks for Peyton.

But we know the truth.
John Clay future!
The game was 9ers to win. It was played out just like the 9ers wanted to on defense. But, the defense couldnt make the plays that they usually do when they win (cause turnovers). Helping the offense like Giants offense got help with turnovers.
Usually, its the 9ers who create turnovers and set up the short field for offense. But in this game they had the opportunity but missed it. To me that missed opportunity cost them the game. Not taking away the turnovers created by Giants. Obviously they were big also.

I'm sure he could do the same as Spindenhall at a fraction of the cost

Trade Woodley and Wallace for Hoyer or Mallet.
I hope he's given a shot.

No you misunderstand what I was getting at. Giants finished 9-7 and won the division. Eagles finished 8-8.
The Eagles gave up 5 fourth quarter leads. Not all of them were insurmountable leads but still...that is 5 fourth quarter leads!
I am pretty confident that had the Eagles hired a competent DC, instead of naming their oline coach the DC or at least addressed the terrible LBs sqaud that one of those 5 leads would have been held onto. The Eagles win the division at 9-7. One more win.
Reid's boneheaded all time stupid decision to name his buddy DC cost the Eagles the season obviously, but all they needed was one more win.
1 more win and they tie with the Giants and play in the playoffs. I don't think the Eagles would have beaten the Packers or the 49ers but in my head (and I am sticking to it!) Reid's decision to promote Juan Castillo from oline coach to defensive coordinator doomed the season.
Yeah Vick had a letdown season. As did DJAX. The whole team did. But the offense still produced. The real problem was the D. They got great talent through FA but it wasn't even about amassing an all star team. The Eagles defensive drafts have been downright horrendous since 2005. They had so many weaknesses and holes all over the D that they had to go out in FA and fill them. The 2011 draft again failed to produce any impact on D.
The D got tons of sacks thanks to the wide9 but that left gaping running holes which how Reid didn't see coming is beyond me. To counter the gaping holes, Reid made his already laughable LB corp even worse by letting veterans Ernie Sims and Stewart Bradely walk and promoting 2 seventh round picks and Casey Mathews into the starting lineup.
I still say the Eagles picked up the right players (minus Steve Smith and Vince Young) on D through FA. The problem is you can't handicap your great talent with dog shit coaching. you can't handicap the scheme by ignoring LBs and Safeties completely.
For all these reasons and more (Reid's in game management) I think the Eagles handed the Giants this opportunity (notice I say opportunity meaning the playoffs...not the actual wins cause the Giants earned their right to be in the SB). At the beginning of the season I knew Giants would finish anywhere from 8-8 to 10-6. Second best in the NFC East. I just thought Eagles would finish 11-5 or better.

I've been at work for three fucking hours, and if one more person who doesn't know shit about football comes in here to tell me "I'm sorry", I'm going to throw my phone at them.

I suddenly like Terrell Suggs.

This is also pretty good, Skip Bayless needs to be hit and I hope Suggs hits him.
