An NFL Thread.

also, there's that brief window a few years back when the jets kept threatening to matter with rex ryan and mark sanchez overachieving like motherfuckers while the pats stumbled from their lofty perch except when it came time to lose to the giants in a couple super bowls.

seriously, this is why i hate football anymore. you cunts have short memories.

Rivalry

its the game not the record...

 

[pointless]

the record, by the way, is fairly even despite the patriots recent dominance. 61-54-1.

and the jets won the last playoff game they played.

so that's something.

 

[southfl_bicur]

Can you have more then 1 ?

I know the Giants / Cowgirls are a rivalry but isnt the Cowgirls & Redskins one too ?

I think everyone in the division is a rivalry. Jets / Pats / Bills / Dolphins they all hate each other...lol

That entire division is a rival to actual professional NFL teams.

Besides the fucking Pats.

 

[pointless]

technically a rival is anyone who competes with you in the same field or sport, so, yeah, it's basically meaningless bullshit.

Secretly I did too but I have to defend my Browns so it's........

lol...

Comment what your favorite NFL team is, how long you have been a fan and your opinion of your teams last season.

I'll start it off.

My favorite team is the New England Patriots, I have been a fan since 2006 but really became die-hard in 2008-2009 and last season was beyond belief, from Brady's "Napoleon like" return in Cleveland to him coming back from the dead in Super Bowl 51.

Everyone is welcome to comment, even Jet fans

Anyone who became a Patriots fan in 2006 and refers to themselves as "diehard" needs to be beaten with a tire iron.

I was thinking the same thing but didnt want to say it but at least he waited a few years after Brady won his 1st 2 rings

I blew up the opening day balloons as a boy scout when the Chiefs pasted them...

They even trotted out Joe Kapp when the beating got too bad.


They were proud to say Boston back then. Maybe they got disowned.

That is true! they haven't had a good QB since Chad Pennington (who was great) but always injured. They haven't had a consistent one since Joe Namath.

Its a shame he was always hurt because Pennington wasn't just good he was a gamer. had a little bit of success when he ended up in Miami, but again couldn't keep himself in one piece.

Pitt/Patriots should be a better rivalry than it is and for one reason. The defensive coordinators of Pitt and Tomlin seem to think that sooner or later their zone defense will work.

Its mind blowing a good team in pretty much every way won't take the blinders off and do something different.

The Falcons had Brady all screwed up in the first half of the Superbowl because they came out in a defense no one had ever seen them use before.

Should have won it for them.

Chad Pennington was a very good qb.

Geno Smith was good not great at WV but the Jets threw him into the game too early. He was 2 years from being an NFL qb. He needs to learn. Remember GB spent a 1st rd pick on Aaron Rodgers but their plans (because of Favre) were not to start him for a few years. Some college qb's are better off sitting for a year before they become a starter. Even Eli Manning sat most of his 1st season before becoming a starter..

The Jets are a black hole for QB's have been since I can remember, they either suck or just have bad luck with injuries and bad coaches...mostly suck though.

 

[southfl_bicur]

bad coaches

I think their coaches were not QB coaches. They did not know how to grow them. Dont be surprised if this year they draft another qb either in rd 1 or 2 only to have him sit this coming year.

 

[AnalCreampieGiver]

I forgot all about this thread.. Lol I need to start it up again. I'm curious though.. What are everyone's expectations for their respective teams this coming season? Obviously since I'm a diehard Patriots fan, I expect them to repeat as champs but I would love everyone else's opinions on what they expect of their teams.

 

[AnalCreampieGiver]

Serious Packer fan since 1992, last year they had so many injuries they were defenseless, still made it to the NFC championship game.

That's true, y'all have a great up and coming free safety in Haha Clinton-Dix (he can hit hard) and obviously Clay Matthews is great but I think the Packers are one stud cornerback away from a super bowl appearance (if the rest of the team stays healthy). Adding another linebacker wouldn't hurt either. I haven't been a Packer fan since I was lucky enough to see Brett Favre but I'll admit they are a consistent playoff team.
