This was responding to TB12's comments about the league being mediocre today.
Yeah no. If the supposedly "easy" division made the Patriots then they'd be a quick one and done every year and they were a lot better than that. Nuff said. I liked that Rex heard that comment and looked miffed lol
Many agreed with him - Rex Ryan, Jeff Saturday, Shannon Sharpe, etc. I am not sure how anyone can watch today's game and not see how awful the coaching is and how soft the players are because of the CBA rules and the game rules.It is surprising so many are butthurt over Tom's comments
relatively speaking, the league IS mediocre right now.....so tremendous individual talent, some amazing athletes....but....
the lack of practice time, the lack of contact at practice, the difficulty in coaching the modern athlete, the difficulty in getting buy in to the team, the commitment to one's "brand", expansion, the rules favoring the offense, the crafting of the pro & college game to meet demands of television broadcast and betting services, the big contracts making it harder to pay supporting talent, - all of these factors HAVE made the league pretty mediocre at times......the tackling sucks, the understanding of the game/mental side of things is watered down.....we have all of these tremendous individuals playing some pretty mid level football on a lot of mid-level teams
not sure why this offends so many, other than who is saying it?
He was a very good QB, we would be a playoff team with Alex Smith this season.Or maybe Alex Smith is speaking from personal experience. Dude owned the AFC East for some reason.
Career 11-2, 111 rating and a TD/INT of 24:1 vs the division. That's impressive
