I bet Pats are favored in the Super Bowl too
Yeah, I think a pick'em would be the better line here. If NE wins, it will probably be because they get out to a fast start and held on for dear life at the end. If it is close early and NE is unable to get ahead, won't be a good sign.
Fixed.

He has been their best CB statistically.
Quick release. With Edelman back Brady can get the ball out in about 2 seconds which neutralizes the rush.

Did a guy just post claiming he is a fan of the Steelers and Pats or was that a figment of my twisted imagination?
If the Pats are unable to go ahead i think they lose.

Whatever stats you are looking at are incredibly misleading. He almost always has safety help on his side and is generally the one who has given up pretty big plays. I might be a BIT hyperbolic, but he is not "good."
Vollmer being back also helps a shit ton.
He has been good most of the season. He hasn't been good the last 5 or so games though. Clearly regressed.

No I was banned for synthetic marijuana.
That was legit one of the best games I have ever seen. I was impartial so it was just entertaining as fuck to me but for a Cards fan especially that must have been a nightmare. They were so much better than the Packers. The Pack were only it because their qb made some of the greatest throws I have ever seen and the Cards qb was throwing exclusively to Packers. I can't decide what was more amazing. The fact that Carson put the Cardinals ahead despite throwing most of his passes directly at Packers defenders or the fact that Rodgers went the length of the field in like 50 seconds (and in fact managed the clock poorly) on basically two throws with no running after the catch.
Both of Rodgers throws at the end of the 4th were amazing. Elway could have thrown the ball that far but neither throw would have been nearly as precise.
Jeff George could have made those throws but he could not have done it scrambling to his left (or falling backwards on that hail mary). I guess Vick could have made that first throw but no way it is anywhere near the receiver.
I give Rodgers a lot of shit but I will never forget those throws. It is scary to think of what he could do if he cared about football and didn't want to be an actor.
You just made me throw up all over myself.
A fan of the Steelers and the Pats?
This is unnatural. Boy I think you should seek out a priest. You may have several demons living in your body. Gronk's STD demons are only killing his body. It looks like yours have gotten into your brain.

ITT, Pats fans argue about whether one of their defensive players is maybe a little less than great.

Regarding the oline, I was surprised to see Stork and Andrews in and out of center. You would think that they would want continuity on the line.
Stork was hurt.

I took you for a meth type of person.
Edelman helps, but many are under estimating the impact of Vollmer. Dude is a beast, and brings stability to the line. With him you know one of the edges is set. If he goes down you will see the oline from the Dolphins/Jets game return in a hurry even with Edelman.

Imagine that a HoF coach not wanting an accountant to pick his players and assistants for him.
Too early for this.
Plenty of cuts, retirements, etc.
Broncos (and I assume other teams) can free up large chunks of money if need be.
Peyton, Ware, Clady for instance account for $19M, $10M, $10M respectively. That's ~$40M. Which would put us at ~$60M going into next season.
Honestly, Palmieri is probably the biggest culprit even over Reese.

Being off work on Monday's is the best. If only it wasn't 20 degrees...
This is the baseline. It won't get worse for teams as the off-season progresses, it'll improve.

The OL and DL coaches are out too apparently. Dunno if they just quit or were let go

Been a lot of talk about it too that it's partially the effect of getting Edelman back. He's able to separate right at the line so when the blitz comes, Brady can dump it off quickly. Also having the #1 CB on Edelman means mediocre WRs like Amendola, Lafell, and Martin have to get covered by a worse player... Opens it up for Gronk too if CB needs Safety help.
O line definitely did enough to protect brady on Saturday
Wait... Correct me if I'm wrong, but weren't you the one shouting down whenever any Pats fans thought that they could lose to Denver midway in the season........? And then it happened basically exactly how everybody thought.
Persecution complex, but might have been someone else
Flaherty was on the way out either way (he was rumored to be looking). He was begging for the Rutgers HC job once Flood was gone.

I only know 1 other person in MA who roots for both the Steelers and Patriots, and it's my friend's wife... She was born outside Pittsburgh but lives in MA now, so she roots for her husbands favorite team most of the time, except when Pats are head to head with Steelers.
e.g., you are my friend's wife.

It's a good thing the Dolphins have so much garbage to cut otherwise signing Suh would have been a huge mistake
it was still a mistake

Cool?

It only took Clyde three years to take Andrew Luck from sure fire Hall of Famer to worst QB in football...so....sure!

Yeah not sure if you read our posts but most of the regulars here agreed that we played well all things considered. Our season was such a shitshow that I think most rational fans were in "just happy to be here" mode (embarrassing "packers have the most heartbreaking losses" threads aside)
Once we get the WR corps figured out and Jordy back, it should be good!
Only point of concern is old man Peppers. I know Mike Daniels has been a beast on the D Line but how many seasons can Peppers have in him? Little afraid that we'll lose that pressure up front.

I think spags would be okay with more talent to work with.
Eagles have hired another member of Dougs staff:
@alexmarvez: Source tells @NFLonFOX that former #NFL safety & coach Tim Hauck is being hired as @Eagles DBs coach. Last with @UNLVfootball I bellieve
He is actually going to be assistant DB coach, Undlin is staying. How long until they announce Doug as the coach? The wait is so stupid.

Eh I warmed up to the Gase pick and "Insiders" say Joseph was a solid pick, but I'll take a wait and see approach. Get us to the playoffs and then I'll care.
Joseph is a good hire. Liked him when he was here and hoped O'Brien would have kept him. Turned Kareem Jackson into a good corner after people were righting him off.
As for the salary cap space. With the cap rising more space isn't as high a value as I don't believe there will be many premier free agents actually hitting the market with teams having the space to resign them

I like Undlin so happy about that.
I really do wonder if Howie is putting this staff together or Doug indicated who he wants.
Mangini better than Billy Davis. Smart by Chip. I get the feeling had Chip remained coach in Philly he would have fired Billy Davis. Might have landed Schwartz.
Man what could have been.
