I'd agree with that. But this team has been carried by the offense over the last five years. And it also says how little everyone thinks of the defense. I mean Flacco destroyed them last year and probably will this year if they win today.

Seriously though you'd think he'd realize something was up when a Jets fan is defending Mark Sanchez.
Can't be as bad as Tannenbaum. Maybe?

Patriots lack talent and have for years. It's Belicheck that has gotten them as far as they've gone year in and out, but scheme can only take you so far.
That was pretty good. I got Tom Penny vibes from both it and the bite.
i had a dream matt ryan won the superbowl over the ravens.
Yes it is. I swear to god it is.

I'd say offensively they are pretty talented. Defensively they've gotten better even if their LBs look like they're running in mud.

I have to be at work 3:45 pm today, so I imagine I'll be going in at the middle of the third quarter when it is 21 (Falcons) to 10 (Hawks), and then the rest of game I'll catch quick glimpses of the Falcons blowing a lead like they have done all year long.
Final prediction: 28 to 27, Falcons!

a field goal is 50% more points than last year. Remember to celebrate the little things!
He has the passion, I hope he's finally able to take us to new and exciting places.
Offense hasn't carried them in the playoffs...really the 2 biggest games that count. It's not even arguable. Top scoring team in the league scoring 14 and 17? A lot of it is on Brady. He's not exempt. At the end of the day they are about 5 or so plays from winning 6 SB's but they didn't make them on either side of the ball.

Falcons will win 2-0. After yesterday's slate of games I'm preparing myself for the most unwatchable game ever.

Chud chud chud chud!
My new chant during browns games
Might need to invest in a chud jersey
no way the texans winning. I can't even pretend to think they can win without me rolling my eyes back into my skull continuously.
nothing can be worst then last weeks games.

I'm expecting a pretty good game.
I'd feel like it was that magical season that he led them to 10-6 and I fell in love with a Browns team on the rise...
Then after the first loss I'd be reminded of what my first real season was like and return to despair.

Eh. For years it was Welker and the two TE's. This year the TE's can't even get on the field together. Ocho, Marshall, and the murderer have all been busts.

Cris Carter is so black.
You're probably right. Then again the way he leverages Tebow against me, it wouldn't surprise me in his heart of hearts he truly believe that Sanchez at one point was the man.
BTW my post towards you wasn't meant to be snippy. I put the same amount of blame on Peyton as the rest of the squad. I think that is a fair assessment, but I know others will absolve him of any responsibility of the loss.
My defenses are down. I still stand by my original assessment, trolling or not, both in terms of the QB argument as well as some of the stuff you say. If that means I'm getting trolled, so be it.

I say we should count this loss for the Packers as a one and done.
The Vikings win doesnt count.

I'm so sorry. That was uncalled for.
He'll be replaced by Harrell before he gets the chance to.

Eh, I don't imagine many one and dones for Rodgers in the playoffs. Even this year he went 1-1. Manning has had way too many one and dones. I think they will both end up with the same number of rings though (2), and in the end that is all that matters.

What do you mean playing against Joe Webb doesn't count as practice for Kaepernick?
dude lol..

Don't diss Joe Webb, he's a rockstar.
No other QB will reach 8 one and dones, 1-4 after a bye and never win a cold playoff game. That's hard as fuck to accomplish.

I keep expecting Bane to blow up the stadium during that NFL evolution commercial.
darkside is not a Sanchez fan, at least not now
btw I think the Peyton criticism is cumulative, and not specific to this year. It's hard to ignore the one and dones. It's part of his legacy imo

The more I hear about Rodgers and that draft, the more I'm starting to hate him
I'm still mad he underperformed early in fantasy
Uhh, what? For years it was the two TEs? Hernandez and Gronk are only in their third years. If by "years" you just mean 2011, then I guess it's true.
So far he's right.

it's kinda in the word there.
Kaepernick is a QB. Webb is a steaming pile of shit that should never have been allowed to play. A bit of a difference.

I'm good thanks, bad loss. If everyone wants to compare this to the 96' Jags loss, then it's time for Peyton to get back in the saddle and get it done. Time is short, no more excuses.

Eight one and outs. As the athletes like to say, it is what it is.

Look, it's hard to win any game when you give up 38 points, but three Manning TO's killed 'em. It's like he's made of Teflon.

The Peyton pick totally reminded me of the interception Brett Favre threw three years ago against New Orleans. Terrible throw.
Bob Kravitz ‏@bkravitz
Look, I love the guy, admire his comeback, believe he's one of best ever, but he's not a consistently great postseason QB. Period.
