Haha Suh got into another accident.

Edit: Already posted but still funny.

I give him three more years before complete implosion.

 

[DeaconKnowledge]

I said the same as soon as he announced his retirement right before Super Bowl XLV. Imagine what could've happened if he was there for that game.

Shame he took the entire Packers defense with him.

 

[Wrayfield]

Eagles sell out the year before the season even starts so the only way to get tickets is off the 2nd hand market. Stubhub is your best bet. The Eagles make a few standing room only tickets available before each game if you dont mind standing.

Thanks, will probably try Stubhub for that one.

 

[Buckethead]

Generous. I'll take the under.

I think we're in for some hilarity this offseason.

 

[DeaconKnowledge]

Not that there's a reason to care either way. Dude is a non factor.

Still fun to watch!

Lions cut him after next year. He pretends to clean up his act and two more teams take fliers on him in 2014 and 2015. Then he is gone. 2016 he is sentenced to 5 years for possession and assault.

 

[Wrayfield]

We talked about shit the other day, and then I stumble upon this Welker interview (no, it's not a picture, no, the video doesn't show feces, sorry FMT and BLarry).

 

[jmdajr]

If the season ended today

Playoff picture.

Damn, seeing where Houston is now makes me nervous. I think I was more relaxed when we sucked.

 

[Buckethead]

[Goro Majima]

In a way, yeah. Some of the more crowded, wooden old parts of cities in the Northeastern US, Providence for instance, also remind me of Scandinavia.

I personally love the style of these houses.


I think the most striking part of visiting the US as a European is that it makes you realize how densely populated Europe is.

The US has so much space.

If you thought the US has a lot of space while visiting New England, you should try the rest of the country. Eastern Massachusetts is downright crowded compared to somewhere like Texas.

 

[eznark]

1-0 in the division. Unless you really think Chicago or Minnesota is going to win 13+ games there is nothing to worry about yet. Except that this team sucks.

 

[effzee]

So Mendy gave me 2 points whereas Chris Johnson gave my opponent 10 points.

No mojo this year in FF.

 

[Milchjon]

Yeah, I know. And I really wanna see other parts too.

The thing that impressed me the most were starry nights in central Maine. Too much light pollution to get anything like that in almost all of Europe.

Wes is hilarious. He's my number two!

 

[WedgeX]

Suh in an accident....

I think this means the Lions lost the Bye week.

 

[TheLegendary]

I bet we bounce back pretty well over the next few weeks. Who knows how it'll shake up by the end of the year but I don't expect a Steelers-like collapse

 

[Dragon]

Not many teams are going to win without their starting safety, outside linebacker, center, guard, tackle, 1st string running back, 2nd string running back and 3rd string running back. 5 of which happened during the course of the game.

Excuses excuses. Your team isn't very good.

 

[Goro Majima]

I bet we bounce back pretty well over the next few weeks. Who knows how it'll shake up by the end of the year but I don't expect a Steelers-like collapse

I'd be surprised if we didn't. I'm just not looking forward to using those playoff seeding calculators again and stressing over the outcome of every single NFC game/team like I did in 2010. That was the year Desean Jackson helped Green Bay win a Super Bowl.

 

[eznark]

Well, after Sunday I think we go on a run against poor competition but I'm not terribly optimistic.

I hope you guys are right and the issue with the offense is line communication. If that is the case then by the end of the year the Packers will be poised for a Giants-like run!

Finley talks about chemistry...

http://www.foxsportswisconsin.com/1...nding_packers.html?blockID=803097&feedID=5065

Considering that he'll be playing injured if he's cleared for the game, Finley was asked whether he can take his game to the level he wants with his shoulder the way it is.

"I can, (but) it takes two people to do that," Finley said. "And I need the quarterback on my side, and I need to catch the ball when he throws it to me. So it takes two things to get that going, the chemistry. I feel we need to get that going."

This is far from the first time Finley has raised the issue of chemistry between he and the reigning NFL MVP.

"I'm not blaming it on my offseason, but me and the QB didn't have chemistry," Finley said on June 1 following Green Bay's first OTA practice. "The routes were off sometimes, and that'll mess with your head when the ball comes."

Later in that same interview, Finley added: "I couldn't get the chemistry with the QB."

 

[TheLegendary]

Edit: Damn you Future for soiling conversation by even mentioning the scum that is Finley. Dude was asked how he'd recover from his shoulder injury and responds with chemistry issues with ARod bullshit.

I'd be surprised if we didn't. I'm just not looking forward to using those playoff seeding calculators again and stressing over the outcome of every single NFC game/team like I did in 2010. That was the year Desean Jackson helped Green Bay win a Super Bowl.

I was still in college and I'd spend half my class time in November/December running through scenarios in those things.

Cheesy story incoming.

I left my house during the Eagles game in the early 4th quarter because I was so depressed knowing the Packers wouldn't make it in without a Giants loss. I live literally 5 minutes away from Vince Lombardi's grave in NJ and had never visited before. Figured that was an appropriate time to go. Took me like 20 minutes to find the damn thing and it was super cold out that day . I left a little Packers helmet at his grave, went back home and shortly thereafter experienced the greatest miracle in the world.

So it was your fault!! Fucking resorting to voodoo rituals at the graveyard!

 

[Goro Majima]

Cut Finley.

 

[Smokey]

I am preparing myself to see a lot of pathetic green and gold around town starting today. Everytime I see it I'm reminded of eznark and that smug avatar.

Pack fans travel well.

I saw a Texans uni in NYC this morning. First time I'd ever seen one in the wild.

 

[eznark]

Cut Finley.

With a Bowie knife

By far the most away team fans I have seen at a Texans Football game has been Steeler fans. I almost wondered if any Texans fans were going ot be at the stadium! In the end Reliant had plenty of Houston fans, but those were a lot of yellow towels.

The most opposing fans ever could have been that Dallas game. Sadly fans couldn't miss the opportunity of selling insanely high priced tickers to them. Anyhow, thanks to the great Cowboys fans now Texans have a lot stricter tailgating rules. Thanks for nothings jerks!

I'm staying up here in Wichita Falls and there are an absurd number of Steelers fans.

Texans need continued success to sadly be more than the 2nd most popular AFC team in Texas. I haven't even met a Texans fan but plenty of Steelers fans.

 

[Smokey]

Man your wrists are going to be sore

From all the action its going to get seeing Rogers on his back I agree. Pants are rising already!

 

[Buckethead]

Are there going to be any good RBs in the draft?

Packers should get one.

Also a center and LT.

 

[jmdajr]

Wow a pair of tickets in my section going for 550!

Normal price. About 150. Hey look.. another pair for 999.00!(oh parking pass included, well isn't that nice)

I knew Houston was a terrible place but it's now confirmed with this post.

[Buckethead]

Also a safety.

I've already solved that dilemma: Alex Green to safety

 

[Spectral Glider]

If the season ended today

Playoff picture.

Man, the AFC really is horrid. But somehow I remain hopeful that they don't send a total scrub team like the Pats* to the SB again this year.

 

[yankeehater]

Copying the Pats is not the way to fix your defense.

 

[Milchjon]

Yeah, they should send a juggernaut like the Steelers.

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

Yeah afc is trash. But it has been this way for years!

 

[Milchjon]

8th in rushing yards allowed per game, how is that D not fixed to you?

Spoiler

29th in passing :-(

 

[Dragon]

So Pats fans have to deal with the asterisk, Steelers fans support rapists. Yeah I'd rather be a Pats fan.

Yeah afc is trash. But it has been this way for years!

Kinda like the NFC West.

 

[Smokey]

Yeah afc is trash. But it has been this way for years!

stfu

 

[Buckethead]

Hooray I can buy booze again.

 

[Godslay]

Yeah afc is trash. But it has been this way for years!

Well since 2000 after the Broncos broke the NFC's 13 SB win streak of the late 80's through the late 90's, it's been fairly even. AFC has won 7, and NFC 6.

 

[jmdajr]

Well in the past 10 years we have 6 AFC Supa bowl winners, and 5 NFC winners.
AFC has not won since 2009 though.

NFC has had 10 different teams make it (Rams, Buccs, Panthers, Eagles, Seahawks,Bears,Cardinals,Giants,Saints,Packers)
AFC has had 4. (Pats, Colts, Steelers,Raiders-just one from each division)

 

[bionic77]

Yeah afc is trash. But it has been this way for years!

Trash teams win Superbowls.

Teams that are great in the regular season fall short in the playoffs.

These are the facts. You cannot deny them. The Giants lost to the Redskins twice last year and they didn't give a fuck once the playoffs started. The Steelers started this phenomenon 8 years ago and it has been pretty much the norm since then. This isn't the 80s where Eddie D could just break all the rules and buy a super team. Now every team has holes and luck, health and getting hot are the only things that matter in the playoffs.

The only question is which trash team is going to get the wild card and win it all this year? Right now both the Steelers and Packers have very strong credentials (at least as far as being trash). But if I am being honest there are so many garbage teams this year that is hard to see who is going to come out in the end.

Whatever happens we win. If we get the wild card we will be unstoppable in the playoffs. If we miss the playoffs and win 7 games we will be set up for a fantastic draft in which we draft an entire offensive line (one that can stay healthy for more than 2 minutes) and an entire defense to replace the shit one we have now.

 

[Milchjon]

Why couldn't you before?

The Steelers aren't going to make the playoffs.

 

[bionic77]

The Steelers aren't going to make the playoffs.

People say that every year about every trash team in September and October and some bullshit miracle happen every year (coupled with an epic collapse) where they get on a hot streak and get by the smallest of margins.

It might not be the Steelers that are this years trash team, but one team will rise from the steaming midden heap to become this years champion.
