OT: Official 2021 Tompa Bay Gronkaneers Thread

[TB12TheGoat]

Mahomes had last year’s MVP locked up with three games left, essentially stopped trying, and Rodgers leapfrogged him with some absurd stat padding over the last few games. Unbelievable that a guy gets penalized for going 14-1 and pumping the breaks while the other guy is hammering away against ****ty teams, and the voters only look at the final numbers without context.

absolutely absurd he's going to have more MVPs and 1st team AP now. I know regular season awards and all of that, but it's still a joke. a players stats who don't tell the whole story. you'd think with all of those td's and so few int's he'd be leading a top 5 offense every single season

So is Shannon Sharpe mentally challenged? Maybe he skipped math class but the MVP award is a 1 year accomplishment, not awarded for stats accumulated over 4 years. This year, you know the one that counts, Brady has 1000 more yards than Rodgers and 5 more TD passes. I'm really starting to think Brady must have run over his dog by accident because his blind TB12 hatred just looks STUPID!

Is Mac10 Thannon Tharpe?

thannon seems like he can string a sentence together. I’d be surprised if MAC10 can fit through a doorway

When Player A has stats but Rodgers has efficiency, it’s efficiency that matters.

When player A has the best record, it’s a team game, when Rodgers has it, it’s due to him.

When Rodgers has the (rare) comebacks, he’s clutch, when player A has them, it’s luck.

Brady had an 11-1 record in 2016, while throwing 28-2 TD/INT but no one cared about efficiency or record then.

Now that Rodgers magically made the Bengals miss two FG’s to win, the Ravens QB to miss a wide open receiver for a game winning 2 point conversion and the refs to rob the Browns, he solely gets the credit that the Packers got the number one seed.

There hasn’t been a more artificially build, pampered, excused, pitied athlete in the history of professional sports. His covid shenanigans never happened. I can only imagine the reactions if Brady did what he did.

It’s ridiculous.

hopefully a few Brady supporters start going hard this week. Another 3-4 TDs and 250-400 yards next week will again make things interested

Honestly, I couldn’t care less about MVP. Brady doesn’t win SB when he won MVP.

Rodgers can have it. Brady will beat him again in lambeau with Cyril Grayson.

for me it's less about the award then it is the fact that Brady would have 3 MVP/3 1st team AP and Rodgers would have 4/4

 

[TB12TheGoat]

just saw that Brady has faced the hardest defensive schedule of any qb. Rodgers 19th. we know the voters will ignore this though

Who cares? Brady has 7 SB, Rodgers has 1.

everybody on earth, except Rodgers fan club, acknowledged that Brady is the greatest football player ever and Rodgers is just a stat padder. He can’t win because he is more interested in his rating than winning.

It’s crazy. They have played like 8 of the top 10 defenses.

 

[amfootball]

Rodgers will sit this week while Brady gets 40+ TDs and 5000+ yards. I still believe Brady takes this with a good performance vs Carolina.

 

[amfootball]

Peter King believes the MVP is razor close and he has a vote unlike Sharpe.

 

[1960Pats]

I'd love to see the leaders in percentage on that.

Percentages how? 4QC's per games played?

 

[1960Pats]

Wow! What a great comeback by Brady in spite of the major distraction of losing a top WR. It's too bad our genius HC decided that he should be the highest paid person in the organization rather than the greatest QB who ever played. But hey, at least he has jobs for his kids.

 

[1960Pats]

Down 24-10. Engineers a game winning drive in the final minute with the 5th scrub WR off the bench. Nice.

Why can't the Pats get players like that? Oh yeah, the GIC (genius in charge) needs to save all the cash for himself and his kids. I can't wait to see JC Jackson celebrating a SB win with the Titans in a couple of years.

 

[1960Pats]

Saint Aaron has an advantage because he's coached by the GOAT HC with an all time record of 39-9 (.809 winning %). That blows Bill the Genius out of the water.

Rodgers will sit this week while Brady gets 40+ TDs and 5000+ yards. I still believe Brady takes this with a good performance vs Carolina.

you would think a 13-4 record, leading in yards and td’s at age 44 would be enough. this isn’t like Brees where he would lead the league in those stats and still go .500 or below.

are the same people who won’t shut up about 0 points against the Saints forgetting Rodgers put up 3 against them? and his top 2 receivers and running back didn’t get cheap shotted out of the game either

I am not convinced that rodgers has this secured yet. What Brady did yesterday with ABs meltdown was the most impressive win of the year on the road. Got him to 40 TDs and 10 yards shy of 5000. We will see what happens next week but with Rodgers most likely sitting, Brady has a chance to really make a push the final week. The award often times comes down to the final 2 weeks.

Or a better question, why was Brady down to the Jets (4-12) in the first place?
