Obnoxious Football Trash Talk Thread

Uhh... really?

Must I remind you?

With that guy?!?!

Yeah I know, but our division sucks. Plus if you saw our coaching over the last 6 years you'd know that we were the worst coached team in the entire NFL ever since Smith was drafted.

 

[the_bird]

Well, of course, and it sounds like you finally have a decent head coach.

From what I've been reading, though, sounds like this is all a transition year. And they may still suck, but I wouldn't sleep on Sammy Bradford in St. Louis - he'll be the best QB in the division this year, by a good margin. Yeah, the division sucks, but Bradford was a legitimately *good* QB in his rookie year (better than Alex Smith has ever been), and he'll be better in year 2.

 

[McBrewskie]

All true. I can write this season off as a transition since Harbaugh has to clean out all of Simpletary's crap. Bradford is definitely the best QB in the division. It's just nice that as a Niner fan this is the first time in a decade I feel they might actually be heading in the right direction.

 

[olllllo]

Looks like the Patriots are the first to sell out to Bud.

Notably, the Packers have not knuckled under.

I would bet they will buckle. All those idiots up in GB are traitors and drink AB instead of Miller. Makes us southern Wisconsinites sick...

I hate them for that and let them know every chance I get. Grab a High Life and quite being pansies! Damn it!

Hey Dataz!!! Fire up the hooka!!! Here comes Ricky!

Get him some purple camo dude!

 

[Cape Brewing]

And hey... Thread Narc... is it any wonder someone like Anheuser Busch would put the hard-sell on the Pats?? If you're a huge company, wouldn't you want to tie your company to a perennial power house as opposed to a bit of a one-hit-wonder???

Who else would they try to ink than the Pats??


... and also... may i remind you Mr. Thread Narc that the Patriots and Gillette Stadium also co-sponsor Sam Adam's Patriot Homebrew competition. It is a true homebrew comp and the winner has their beer brewed by Boston Beer Co (they make Sam Adam's) and served at Gillette Stadium during Pats' games.

I can only imagine the types of "competitions" a team called the "packers" have.

I like this SB stat list sorted by winning %. I personally throw out those who've only been there once although kept them here for reference.



Bostonians, you're batting .500 when it counts. Simmer down now with the best team evah bantah. You haven't won in 6 and you're getting old :cross:

The youthful Packers are going for .83333333333333333333 in 2011

I don't see the Viqueens and their 0-4 record on your chart.

WI native relocated to MN by way of AZ. A bit confusing to the casual observer when the login handle is in play as well

Figured why show the 0 -<n> teams.

 

[Cape Brewing]

LOL. Why does Vegas have the Pats has the favorite to win the SB this year??

And I love the "old" comments. Spoken like someone who hasn't actually looked at a roster. They went 14-2 and lead the league in points scored during a rebuilding year.

 

[Beezy]

Go Stillers! Will be getting into with you guys this season (=

The same reason they have ND at 20/1 to win it all in college. Easy money for the house.

BTW - that oldest / youngest thing is overrated. Really depends on specific positions. Differential from top to bottom is 2.733 years...

[Beezy]

Haha as I expected Pittsburgh is #2 on that list. The Steelers really are old with the age being at key starting positions. The Steelers will drop down quickly next year when Aaron Smith, James Farrior, Hines Ward and maybe Chris Hoke retire next year.

Whatever, didn't you notice a drop off from when you went from 26.18 to 26.78?

I'm also not convinced they accurately measure the guys who are getting the playing time.

With respect to the Pats, they have an older QB, but a couple of young guys behind Brady (Hoyer looks a lot better than Matt Cassell ever did). The main receivers are all old, although they think Edelman can replace Welker and they really like Taylor Price. The running backs are now young after going into last season with Fred Taylor, Sammy Morris, and Kevin Faulk. Some older linemen, but Sebastian Vollmer is young and an absolute beast, and they just drafted another tackle in the first round. So, there's pretty good youth throughout the Pats on the offensive side.

On D, the defensive line is pretty old now, but Mayo and Spikes at the LB spot are young. The defensive backfield is very young and should be really good. A few veterans like Leigh Bodden to stabilize things, but they've spent a lot of high draft picks in recent years at these spots.

Overall, that's a pretty good balance between young and veterans. I'm not sure how else to look at the question other than position-by-position. Sure seems to me that there are a lot of key players, particularly on the defensive side, who should still be getting better (more than the players who will likely be on the decline).

Green Bay's in good shape, too, probably better (with respect to age) because of Rodgers. Nothing I'd like more than to face off against the Packers in the next three Super Bowls!

 

[Cape Brewing]

Blah blah age, blah blah age, balh blah.

Really??? Look up the average age of the starters of the last ten super bowl winners and then explain to me how "age" is a direct contributor.

Here is reality:
- most Super Bowl wins by a LOT in this milennium = Patriots
- most points scored this milenium = Patriots
- most wins overall this millenium = Patriots

And last year, in a rebuilding year, they lead the league in points scored and wins in the regular season.

So.... Its all cute and all for you fudge packing fans to get al giddy cause you won one in the last 30 years but... Step aside... It is time for the big boys to play.

 

[Beezy]

Yeah but I hate the freaking Patriots. Is this what I am going to have to read in this thread all year? I hope not. Be fun to watch them poop the bed for the 8th year straight.

They will, the pats are finished. Their over the hill and overrated.

 

[user 574]

... I'm not sure how else to look at the question other than position-by-position ...

Agree. Unless you're a puppeteer GM under Al Davis & maybe Jerry Jones you shouldn't even be a GM if not balancing youth & experience in the right positions. Who wants a bunch of 0-2 yr O liners protecting your money maker QB? 4-5 yr avg age sounds better here.

Green Bay's in good shape, too, probably better (with respect to age) because of Rodgers. Nothing I'd like more than to face off against the Packers in the next three Super Bowls!

I'd go along with this.

Yes. Patriot Nation is strong on da threads. Look at da badazz that started the whole thread. Get used to it or be banished to the "is my beer ruined" threads.

Back to smackity smack. So, last year they were the 6th oldest team in the league and they were in a rebuilding year of what; their retirement plans?
