Do you believe that QB is the most important role in sports? The past couple years have highlighted to me that a QB can make a coach look brilliant. Or horrendous. 1. Jimmy G to SF, obviously 2. Deshaun Watson in Houston. Once he went down Texans look terrible again. 3. Denver, after the...

If the Steelers beat the Dolphins in the Steel City, we get the winner of a seemingly trash game between injured Oakland and injured Houston. That could almost guarantee another Second Christmas -- an AFCCG at Gillette. Would be the 6th for me in section 239! What do you think about the...

...well its points against, at 15.2 points per game. Top in the AFC and 2nd in NFL, behind only the Vikes. So while we all angst about the D, they are doing their usual thing of giving up yards but few points, esp in the 2nd half. And of course have tons of room for improvement as the season...

How Happy? Niners fire Rat-gini. Niners fire DC Eric Mangini, offer Curtis Modkins OC job - NFL.com Good times, and a nice tail wind heading into AFCCG -> Fritz

I got tickets from one of my coworkers in NYC and decided to road trip We stopped at Gaetanos deli in Westport to get our tailgate food on Sunday's drive - good move A few impressions from the experience - I will never complain about Route 1 again after the parking experience into lot P. A...

i hadn't seen anything about this. I was in the stands with a few friends in the 4th quarter when the jets punted. Amendola suddenly signaled Watch Out to his team mates that it was a short bad punt, stay away from the ball and be alert...by crossing his arms repeatedly. The jets seemed to...

Summary of Fritz Report widely distributed on Facebook to clarify why the NFL ruling and process was unfair: - NFL executed sting operation at AFCCG vs warning Pats about Colts complaints - NFL showed no knowledge of Ideal Gas Law and thought immediately all balls were under inflated vs...

weird. He will say "fans of New England", and everyone will just boo him. Forever more he will get boo'd in his own stadium. Wtf bob

Let me start by saying I am a seasons tick holder for over a decade, love BB, hate Goodell, hate Ratgini etc etc I am trying to make some sense out of the deflate-gate storm, and am putting forward an alternative theory here. Feel free to attack me if you want, but I would rather have a reasoned...

They are on a 5 game winning streak, including some tough road wins. Their only losses have been to STL, SD, KC, DAL They now hold HFA throughout the playoffs. They have a tough D and Mobile QB. Don't they look like the real thing again, now that it's December? Pick your poison from the NFC...

As I was getting ready for the tailgate and game this morning, I checked the weather, and it is expected to be quite windy. In fact, those gusts are at a level that will impact the passing game. Not a total passing shutdown (11-16 mph consistent) but its a factor. Both teams may need to focus...

I agree that Brady did not play well. And our secondary got torched for record yards (after Welker pick play). But honestly, we got NO pressure on the Forehead all day. And our ability to run against their 7 (not eight) was non existent. I can understand that the QB (Brady) can have an off...

Slow news midweek, so I had a thought and question: Much has been discussed about the strength of the Pats secondary, which has been built in just the past few years with the acquisition of Talib and Dennard, plus McCourty in center field. We now have a very solid crew to play man on any...

at the very end, everyone left in our section (about 25%) were like best friends hugging and laughing and howling. "we are still here! and TFB just won the goddam game! and f%$# that snotty Saints b**** and her husband who talking trash for 15 mins and then left early all smug. where are...

This I do not get. Wendell was the center all last year and they were flawless (IIRC). Why or why does this happen in the most critical of moments this season? :eek: Any theories? someone is choking.... -- FRITZ

Looking back at the team building process, I say WOW. - Chandler Jones, and Collins for speed rushers (plus possibly Buchanon), plus reliable Ninko - Armstead, Tommy Kelly pushing up the middle, plus Vince - same LB core Mayo, Spikes, Hightower, plus Collins can cover; Dane Fletcher...

I dont really understand the capology around NFL contracts. I understand that when a team gives a player a signing bonus, its in ther interest to spread the cap hit out over more years, frequently beyond what is realistic. But why do salaries go up so much in the later years, again beyond...

I am a fan of statistical analysis. i thought this was pretty interesting amongst all the hysteria we are generating, myself included :D what jumped out for me 1. Last in the league in giving up big pass plays (2nd year in a row) 2. Last in the league on first down D (giving up at...

I was at the game last night, and there was one run where Vareen went left and appeared cornered dead to rights by the Texans end (JJ WATT?). but then he jukes and cut it back hard, and left the end grasping nothing but air. Does anyone have that on tape? Was it discussed at all on the...

(I really did.) (this thread is counterbalance also to the doom and gloom) That reflects my level of confidence. Simply stated, we lost by a haris breath last year, and this years team is MUCH better. Fingers crossed. See you all in balmy Gillette sunday! -- FRITZ
