Why do your boys suck so much this year, especially on D?

The thought of the beat-down the Colts are gonna get next week must be giving you a chubby, though ...

It's quite amusing that he thinks the Patriots are some current dynasty. They didn't win a Super Bowl for 10 years. They were a dynasty from 2002 until 2005, with 3 superbowls in 4 seasons. That's incredible. But this current team has virtually nothing in common with that team and that era. FFS multiple teams have won more superbowls than the Pats since in the 10 years since. Both the Steelers and Giants. Even Peyton has the same record in Super Bowls as Brady post-2005.

Ever since the Pats switched from a defense dominant team from the 3 Super Bowl champion era, to a pass-reliant, offense-dominant team, they haven't been anywhere near the NFLs most dominant team. 10 years and a 1-2 super bowl record. Same record as Peyton Manning in the Super Bowl post-2005. The Steelers are 2-1, the Giants are 2-0. The Seahawks are 1-1. For teams with multiple super bowl trips. It's pretty clear the best team of the past 10 years has been the Steelers, however much I despise them and Big Ben, the rapist.

The funny bit is acmilan seems to think Brady has destroyed the NFL for the last 10 years, when he has had the exact same amount of postseason success as Manning, and has actually lost 2 conference championships games to Peyton and 2 SBs to Eli. Brady's post-2005 record in the playoffs against the Mannings. 0-4 :rofl:

The guy is such an insufferable homer, it's almost ridiculous. He completely fails to recognize that Brady's inexperience was hidden behind a dominant defense for those first 3 playoff runs. Was he a very good game manager in his early 20s. Yes. But he was nowhere near the fantastic QB he became post-2005.

It's pretty evident that in the last 10 years Brady has had no more success than Peyton, and less success than Eli and Big Ben. My idea of a dynasty isn't 1 super bowl in ten years. Nor is trying to suggest this current Pats team is in the slightest part of the early 2000s Pats dynasty, anything but absurd.

Most shocking thing today is Thomas Rawls with 148 yards on 16 carries. The guy was a college bust at Michigan, had a decent senior year at MAC school Central Michigan, and now he's absolutely shredding the Bengals 6th ranked run D. :lol:

Just did some math because i'm annoyed by three teams in our league dominating free agents. In total our league has made 149 FA pickups. Of those, 84 were made by three teams. Thats 56%. One of those three teams is at the bottom kf the table and two are in playoff spots. so even if you take the bad team out, the two of those three currently sitting in playoff spots have made 51 moves between them, accounting for 34% of all the leagues move. That's too much.

I imagine these two bastards sitting around watching stats accumulate or injury reports come in and immediately picking up the relevant players.

This is why all free agents should go on waivers starting at kickoff 1pm est until tuesday morning so other teams get a chance to put in a claim.

I know the change cannot be made this season, but it has to happen next year. It's only fair.
