Go Pats

 

[brentech]

Yeah, I do as well. I only talk to a handful of people on it, but it's one of three programs that starts up with my computer.

That blows my mind. I seriously thought it was dead.

 

[squicken]

I literally laughed out loud.

Pat Hill is the dirtiest fucking coach in the country - college and pro. When he was Head Coach at Fresno State, he used to make his gunners take a cheap shot on returners - even on fair catches. When asked about it, he said it was worth the 15 yard personal foul to "send a message." Complete scumbag.

Really the only hire that I've been upset with under the Dmitroff era.

I never thought Boudreau was any worse than Alex Gibbs in regards to cut blocking. Our guys weren't quite as lean under Boudreau. Clabo and Dahl were always the fake tough guys that would shove after plays.

Dahl still does this. He's out for the year now which kind of sucks. MIN was abusing STL's C and LG with the DTs. Was 2011 bad with the pass pro.

 

[DeaconKnowledge]

Mike Wallace is gone in the off season. Mendenhall has a better chance of being signed. I agree with Brown and Sanders (although Sanders has never been a big part of our offense), but I'm not exactly sure how they're fat with success. Their careers have consisted of a Super Bowl loss and an early playoff exit to Tebow, that's not exactly a recipe for being "fat with success."

Our running game was fine when our offensive line finally got healthy and gelled together, but as soon as injuries plagued the unit again, the running game went back to shit. No running back is going to succeed behind an offensive line that can't block, and while Mendenhall obviously doesn't have his head in the game, that has more to do with his own character than team culture.

James Harrison had bad judgement regarding the severity of his injury, and Woodley is par for the course, ie. injury prone and subject to long slumps. Our defense, outside of these last two games when they were crippled by injuries, were playing lights out defense and looked hungry as fuck to win every game they played in.

This season's outcome thus far has primarily come at the hands of a multitude of injuries across the whole team. We lack depth at 3rd string, and in some cases, 2nd string. Losing to shit teams is a symptom of not giving a shit, but we've been doing that since the Cowher years, and did so during our Championship runs.

Mike Wallace isn't going anywhere. It's just like Mendenhall; only person his performance hurt was himself.

And yes, just because they haven't won a Super Bowl in a few seasons doesn't mean that they haven't gotten fat. The beginning of this season was a testament to that - they thought they were going to win games on reputation.

The injuries hurt yeah, and this season would have been drastically different had we not had them, but let's get real - this is the NFL. Injuries happen. You either deal or you lose. Steelers lost.

Haha remember when The Vikings beat the 49ers Gater?

I bet that still burns you.

you sort of got off easy on the avatar bet.

Niners helmet?

You guys missed another Jaguar opportunity.

 

[Wellington]

Dahl still does this. He's out for the year now which kind of sucks. MIN was abusing STL's C and LG with the DTs. Was 2011 bad with the pass pro.

I still can't believe the STL offensive line woes. No Wells, nor Dahl, and an abysmal tackle situation. The interior of your line will be better with those guys back next year. Do you think they go OT in the draft?

 

[squicken]

that the appeal hasn't been heard before this friday is ridiculous. on one hand i hope he doesn't miss our game because i dont want any excuses for when we destroy the chickens, on the other hand cheaters need to be punished and the seahawks are full of cheaters

needs to be suspended before that SF game. the league shouldn't let Pete pass out crank to his team and then game the system with appeals

I would have given him this:

Only one getting punished this weekend is your boy Kaep.

Go 49ers

Don't worry Gata, I got you.

Jesus gator a new avatar? That's a Pats, Jags, and now Niners avatar, all in one season? You are giving Squicken a run for his money. Pick a team and stick with it.

I would have given him this:

He gets off on this kind of stuff, you'd be doing him a favor.

If the 49ers lose, will it be because of cheating?

He ruined one of ours too, buddy.

Although Desmond Howard ripped the heart out.

Brett Favre gave me one of my most memorable seasons as a Viking fan.

Superbowls are too mainstream anyway. Bucket taught me thats a bad thing when he was a Viking fan.

 

[jakncoke]

They both suck.



He had a great season this year, and we have noone to replace him.

Stat wise, maybe. Eye test. He was not good.

In a decade you can let the corpse of Aaron Rodgers piss on your hopes and dreams.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Well we won some at least.

Poor Vikings fans will probably never see a SB trophy.

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

If the 49ers lose, will it be because of cheating?

the seahawks are only in the playoff race because of cheating and awful ref calls. the front office is trying to make it up to them after stealing that superbowl against the steelers i guess

What? Nah, Ponder will be 7 time MVP and multiple time champion by then.

No need.

Where is fox and sf2fanatic? They can verbally assault each other during the game tonight.

he just wants to make sure his inevitable squickening is as painless as possible.

k.

Ideally Talon throws up the new thread and fox & sf2fanatic can have this one to themselves.

Well I guess if I really wanted one I could start to bandwagon the pats and brag about those ones from when they had all those cameras.

I mean you did it and you are in a swamp somewhere right?

 

[yankeehater]

Cant wait for the league to make it up to the teams that the Pats cheated.

 

[Fox318]

Gonna go to a bar for the game. I want to be able to watch the Knicks beat Lin.

 

[JABEE]

Do you think Rodgers will be able to stick around like Favre? I don't know.

 

[slightconfuse]

if the 49ner do thier job the vikings have a chance at getting in

 

[squicken]

I still can't believe the STL offensive line woes. No Wells, nor Dahl, and an abysmal tackle situation. The interior of your line will be better with those guys back next year. Do you think they go OT in the draft?

Two first round picks. It'd be absurd if they didn't draft at least one. Wells is back, but they've had no continuity. If they all would have been healthy all year it would have been below average but not bad. Saffold, Wells, and now Dahl will miss starts.

Kind of disappointed in Wells. They've really struggled with interior pressure. Every team knows to just sugar the A gaps and they'll fuck up the protection somehow

 

[eznark]

Do you think Rodgers will be able to stick around like Favre? I don't know.

I doubt he'll want to. He has weird broadcasting/entertainment aspirations.

Injuries do happen, but there are different levels. For example, during the Titans game, we were without our starting safety, outside linebacker, center, guard, offensive tackle, 1st string running back, 2nd string running back and 3rd string running back. There comes a point when injuries cease being an obstacle to overcome, and morph into a legitimate team killer. I think we've been firmly planted within the latter state for much of the season.

It basically puts you in a position where you have to play perfect football, as seen in yesterday's game where one fumble cost us an entire game of relatively sound football. That's certainly possible, but quite difficult and not exactly feasible over a long stretch. Especially when its your non-starters who are asked to do it.

It seems like it suits him well. He did well last year when he was doing commentary before a game.

I'm not even being snide or snarky, he does well in front of the camera.

 

[Sviatoslav]

We're still 2-1 vs you in the Super Bowl

I'm not one of those people who care about ancient history Maybe i should though, because while I've been cheering for the Cowboys they only have one playoff win

 

[Alligatorjandro]

I was a Pats fan since I was 7.

Agree. And his radio show is the best long form weekly athlete interview show I've ever heard. He is a man of many talents.

So those 3 super bowls in the early 90s dont count anymore because they were 20 years ago basically. Ancient history!

Dude is terrible in front of a camera though.

If you don't care about history I don't see what the point of being a sports fan is.

I really struggle to remember a time you were ever right about anything. I'm drawing a total blank.
