NFL Discussion Thread - Hall of Fame Game: August 3rd

Peyton isnt the same Peyton as before on the Colts no matter how much the media and NFL want him to be. He doesnt move the ball down the field in the same fashion as he did with Indy. Now, hes more of a dink and donker and theres nothing wrong with that. But Yes, its possible for them to go One and Done, no team is invincible. Even Brady a few seasons ago went one and done against the Jets with homefield when everyone picked them to win the SB.

Second in the league in yds/attempt. You may have had an argument about not being the same quarterback in the postseason, but reading this last post, to me, suggests you're not entirely accurate on what you're talking about.

^ If youre referring to the 8.0 yards per attempt, Alex Smith also averaged 8 yards per attempt. Alex a dink and donker no?

@TRIPPINGOLNEY: GOTTA BE TOUGH FOR COWBOYS FANS TO WATCH THIS, ESPECIALLY SINCE THEIR LAKERS ARE .500 AND THEIR YANKEES HAVEN'T DONE MUCH THIS WINTER

Yo...my uncle is just like this...Cowboys/Lakers/Yankees fan...

My favorite is the Cowboys/Yankees/Bulls fans. Epitome of bandwagoning.

Pretty cool what Calvin Johnson is doing. He is taking all of the WRs from the Lions with him to the pro bowl this year, I believe he did the same last year.

So you mean Calvin Johnson is just taking himself then right?

Denver aint beating the Patriots.

People seem to forget just what NE's offense has done against this defense the last three times they've played - 41, 45, and 31 points (no ST or defensive touchdowns in any of them). Tom has completed 73% of his passes and averaged 302 yards/3 TDs in these games. One pick.

Against Jack Del Rio, Tom is 6-0. His stats in those games?
137/185 CMP-ATT
74.05 CMP%
1430 YDS
14 TD
0 INT
121.2 QB rate

:x :x :x

So yeah... if the game happens again, who the **** knows what's going to happen.

 

[nooera]

Good looks for those #'s. atrocious :x :x

Since Jon Gruden was being thrown around as a potential HC for the Bears, I read up on him and his relationship with his players, specifically Keyshawn Johnson. I've concluded Gruden is an asshat but Keyshawn is a bigger douche than him. Keyshawn's stats look decent and he was a good player but he could've been so much more if his attitude wasn't so bad. His jealousy of Wayne Chrebet and mental fragility believes me to conclude he is a bust more than anything.

Yep. Cincy got lucky to miss NE in NE

Sure did.

Has anyone here ever been to the Pro Bowl in Hawaii?

I won a all expense paid trip from Jan 24-Jan 28 for the Pro Bowl from work, so I'm curious how you're experience was. I know I know it's Hawaii how bad could it be but I'd like to hear some things you guys did and all that. Thanks

wouldn't be too much better having to play denver in denver (if they win on saturday)

 

[dmxfury]

I meant round 1, that organization is just trying to win a playoff game first

ahh i see. well agreed on that point. much easier road playing a reeling texans team then the pats right now. i'm sure you'll like the game as it should be a defensive oriented one

 

[cash money 1999]

i would go to the chiefs if i was andy reid , easier division...number 1 pick etc

Those are some great stats.

Ummm no I'd rather him be in the desert Cards need a QB!

 

[sb]

the number 1 and 2 seeds dont mean anything during the playoffs. we have seen it over and over again. yes it great to be home but a team that catches fire at the right time can be on the road and still win the superbowl. the giants and packers are recent examples.

 

[flyerthandelta]

^Last time I remember the Broncos on a 11 gm winning streak, tell me they not HOT, yeah the patriots won earlier in the season but you can't tell me that wasn't a different bronco squad either.

Man if Andy and Vick go there and wash Kolb out the way

11 whack teams. doesn't mean jack ****, man. it's a new season.



not saying they suck. just that an 11 game win streak doesn't mean anything come january...

It's the NFL can't sneeze on that winning streak

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Its funny how people try to **** on Denver's win streak and almost every top team in the AFC has played a weak schedule. The Pats division is garbage, Denvers is garbage and you got 2 terrible teams in the south. The only division that's kinda competitive is the north and woulda been better if the Steelers didn't get killed by injuries.



The only win from a top AFC team that really stands out is the Pats beating the hell outta the Texans.
