Default Another reason I hate Manning

From Don Banks:

Quote:
FOXBORO -- It was said they needed to beat a good team in the worst way. And by golly, that's exactly what the New England Patriots accomplished Sunday at Gillette Stadium, somehow surviving against the big, bad Chicago Bears despite playing some of their absolute worst winning football ever.
OK, I get the fact that "elite offenses" should not be committing four or five turnovers a game. But, for [insert object of worship here]'s sake, has everybody forgotten that this game also featured (perhaps a bit arguably) the two best defenses in the NFL this season?

[So, why do I hate Manning? B/c, in no small part b/c of his showboating, the only thing people seem to care about these days are points and yards earned.]

As someone said, maybe Aikman (who is a kick ass announcer, btw), most of the Patriots' turnovers weren't turnovers but takeaways.

That's all some fans care about is offense, always been, always will be that way.

With our obvious need for youth on defense, there's some can't miss receiver we need to trade our first three picks for. I'll guarantee it.

We could have 5 first round receivers and somebody would want us to draft WR in the first round.

The fact that defense wins championships doesn't matter to the casual fan.

That's what the NFL wants. Everything is geared towards helping the offense.

That's why all of the media are ball-washing PM and the dolts in unison!
