You guys seem to have a collective mancrush on Ngata and Ed Reed, lol....
It's nice to see Ngata finally getting some recognition outside of Baltimore. He's as good as advertised. Maybe even better, because a little known fact is how is also used in our offense as well (we have a couple packages where he lines up as a tackle or TE for his run-blocking ability, and believe it or not, his HANDS.)
Every team has a few players who don't get the respect they deserve (Ngata, Kelly Gregg, Jared Gaither and Dawan Landry are ours). Who do you guys think are overlooked Pats players? (I think Mankins has to be on top of that list).
I have no idea what your last sentence means. Are you saying that he is so classy he makes the rest of us look bad?I have know idea what your point is, so I have no idea where to go with this.
Show some class, you make the other Pats fans look bad by association.

But chill, dude. You come to another teams board to yap, and accuse us of not having class because we won't buy into your Ravens hype? This is a Patriots board. We have our own hype.
Stick to football, and leave the insults back in Baltimore. When you are in someone's house, you shouldn't be insulting them and telling them what is wrong with them.
they just lacked a Coach and a QB.
As a Ravens fan, I appreciate the sentiment in your post.
We have never, ever had a quarterback like Flacco, but Billick really was a good coach for quite awhile, I just suspect that his attitude was played out by 2006ish despite the 13-3 record, and as is the nature of the NFL, we needed a breath of fresh air which is what Harbaugh has provided.
As depressing as it sounds, Harbaugh's strict/all-pads all-the-time outlook will probably create a schism in the locker room once things don't go well.
Unless you're a truly exceptional coach, in the mold of Belichick/Cowher, then you simply cannot sustain a career in the NFL as a head coach with one franchise, and although Billick was serviceable to pretty good, he was a tier below Belichick/Cowher/Dungy, and there was a huge gap between that first level and everyone else.
Billick's situation was especially tough because the defense from the Super Bowl year in 2000 until this season has had a chokehold on the entire franchise, with Ray basically controlling the team and Rex increasingly imposing his gung-ho attitude upon the team, which both exacerbated the situation for Brian.
I'm not sure you actually care about Brian Billick, but that's a tidbit from a Ravens fan; Brian wasn't great by any means, but he oversaw quite a few successful seasons.
A lot of us here fancy ourselves as general students of football, not as blind, half-******ed fans immune to logic and reason.
Let's pick this conversation back up in AFC Championship game week...when it really matters
