Playoffs ...

I know they weren't great when they needed to be, nobody on defense could make a game changing play in the 4th qtr in crunch time. But with Butler having another year on his contract, and them being ranked in the top half of the league in rankings, helped Butler keep his job. Butler's biggest accomplishment is them leading the league in sacks the last 2 seasons.

 

Honestly in today’s league our defense is good enough, it’s just the turnover prone offense combined with horrific special teams and coaching mistakes is too much to handle.

To put it simple, offense giving away defense not taking away

 

They had one?

 

I agree they have. But the NFL is a constantly evolving game. You see teams changing things up. The only guy that still successful doing it his way is belichick and even he has changed up somewhat. They have when needed got big names. They got a Revis in 2014. They signed a stephon Gilmore. Tried to get Josh Gordon to work etc..

 

You just contradicted yourself. You cant one minute say it rarely happens but then say the NBA can take the risk due to little chance of injury. Plenty of players do see the length and plenty dont. Problem is it's not a BEYOND REASONABLE DOUBT situation. It can happen so therefore players try to put themselves in the best positions possible to maximize their earnings. It's why bell said he would only come back if the team didnt franchise tag him.

 

I mean of course he doesnt but I'm just saying in reality.

 

I'm pro player. Not pro team. So yes I do feel it's nothing wrong with a player trying to earn high guranteed dollars. Hockey is a high contact sport. They get a fully guranteed contracts. And they pay every player their value based on what they player has done and what they project the player to be. That's how you negotiate your contract and get what you are worth based on the market value of your position.

 

It may one day happen. The next CBA will be a long battle. Probably will definitely see another lockout.

 

Yep. Shazier knows all about this.

 

Belicheat will know the play before the snap, Old habits are hard to break.

 

Brady takes less money, which helps the team. Also they don't pay big money to a RB or WR, like Pittsburgh did.

 

The Steelers defense isn't good enough, that's one of the main reasons they didn't make the playoffs. They can't get stops late in games, or create enough turnovers.

 

Pittsburgh didnt pay big money to a rb. They did give AB money. And that's what makes Brady great.. he has always taken less and if he takes less how can anyone else on NE justifying making more money?Peyton took pay cuts as well.

 

Maybe NOT:

Adam Schefter

Former Giants’ DC and HC Steve Spagnuolo has emerged as the favorite to replace Bob Sutton as the Chiefs’ defensive coordinator, per sources.

Spagnuolo and Andy Reid worked together in Philadelphia, share the same agent and have a mutual respect for each other’s work.

yup Brady really wants to win no matter what, you can't hate on him I am sorry, he is a true leader.

indirect shot at Ben lol

 

In today's league it is. Rams/Chiefs/pats made it far with subpar defenses, they just have better coaching and kickers that don't miss lol.

denver- take the self inflicted fumbles away and we likely win
browns - if ben was not a turd we win, too many TO's. not counting the missed fg
raiders - coach being silly, another missed kick
chargers - on the D
saints - we played well enough to win but timely turnovers (who cares about refs)
kc - defense, but we improved after

of those six take away the bad turnovers/coaching and we make the playoffs with 1 win.

I agree though, coaching is not good enough and the defense probably fails again in the playoffs. Better coaching = better defensive results. AQL is right, butler has to go.

 

Heading to AC for some sports betting. If any of you guys and gals bet on the Super Bowl who would you put your money on??????? I can't let my hate of Patriots influence my betting. I'm leaning towards the Pats.

Of course I'll throw a few dollars away putting it on the Pirates to win WS. Hahahahahahahahahaha. Going to bet large sum on the under which stands at 78.5.

 

always bet the patriots. win win either way

 

I just can see myself rooting for them to win.

 

I wouldnt consider the rams defense subpar. They have multiple pro bowl/all pro players with the best defensive player in the nfl. Chiefs defense horrible. Pats defense is decent it's the scheme and coaching by belichick that make them look good
