....Throwing my hat in the ring:
1. Strength up the middle - start with a strong defensive line (NT, then guards + tackles) followed by middle linebacker, safeties (to keep the ball in front of them) followed by corners. The idea is to keep the team in the game scoring-wise (see early '00s...
Re: Official Peyton Manning choke thread
...Great link~! The best one (IMHO) is this one:
Saints trash Peyton Manning’s legacy - KansasCity.com
...Whitlock nails Manning where it hurts, calling out all aspects of the Manning media ballwashing. This should definitively end all...
Re: Bob Cryin: Manning is the better QB
...Man, I gotta agree with 'Joker'. Until Polian won his case with the competition committee and had the Pat's secondary handcuffed with the 'Manning Rule' (no mugging receivers after 5 yards), Peyton had all kinds of grief dealing with the Pats...
....Good points (in a general sense), but like all things - lends a little perspective here. We all need to remind ourselves how lucky to have an organization ('cause it takes an organization to win championships) that has had as long and relatively successful run as they've had. Once Kraft...
...What a train wreck, and rather indicative of the whole season. Soft on defense (poor tackling, no pass rush), no recieving to speak of outside of Moss/Welker/ Faulk (although Edelman, with a bit more seasoning, will be a major keeper - he plays with attitude and guts) - can't win on the road...
...Thanks, Disco, for helping us all keep it in perspective. Methinks a bunch of us got a bit spoiled over that decade. Even though it was an early exit, still better to be in this position than not (like last year).
Gotta admit, I cannot remember Brady playing this freakin' awful at this...
Re: Jimmy Johnson:Loss of Welker hits Patriots offense hard
...I agree, the key is Faulk in many respects. Baltimore feasts on predictable offenses, throwing wildcards into the mix makes them back up a step. They try to out 'physical' opposing teams rather than outsmart them. The Pats...
...Nawp, too early to tell what will happen. I don't think BB will do anything until at least a couple of weeks after the season ends (and completes the season evaluations)....
...Mine is the same as it was last week (cautiously optomistic) - establish some consistency on both sides of the ball going into the playoffs and see what happens from there. I do get the sense that Brady is starting to get his mojo back and feeling more and more like himself. That, and...
Re: OT: What team do you fear the most in the first round?
...Agree with all the previous posts, the only team the Pats really need to fear is themselves. If Bellichick can get some sort of consistency going on both sides of the ball, the Pats could hit the playoffs in stride (which is the...
...By the looks of it, it appears I qualify as one of the 'ol geezers' on this board... (I've been following the Pats since they drafted Grogan, so that should tell you something *lol*). Pretty much Bellichick was the 'power behind the throne' during his Giants days. I watched many games...
...Hey now, I like these posts. Good reading.
1. I agree about the youngin's needing more seasoning. There's been a lot of improvement in spots by those folks throughout the season. There's going to need to be a bit more to become truly battle hardened - especially for the playoffs...
...Yep, gotta agree with Rodney (although, weather will have a lot to do with things). Certainly would expect Moss to have a better day than yesterday.
