Me and Hobbes have a a sig bet based on exactly that. I'm not taking his money but I kind of still feel a little bad. A tiny bit. Nah....I don't feel bad at all. :lol:
It's illegal...and it was a joke. Like anyone would take that bet straight up. But thanks for looking out for me. I do need guidance. Your sweet gentle guidance.
Sensei will guide you. Just understand this rule in life: The dung beetle can eat the dung, but not consume too much, or the beetle becomes the dung. You may make it out of the douche jungle yet. But tread lightly. There are pitfalls that dickheads are drawn to. Tread lightly.
Really Hobbes, really? The man had his eyes closed when he ran into the back of his own teammate. Did you forget that he forgot the play? Was that a brave act? I don't care who takes me seriously, I call it as I see it. Obviously not through sancho goggles. You might convince yourself that he is earl Campbell around the goal line but I know differently. If he is so contact friendly like you believe, why does he shit his diaper full when pressure gets on him. A lot of his interceptions come from getting rid of it too soon to avoid being hit. He seldom gets the full effect like a cool calm Qb gets for delivering the ball at the exact moment it needs to in order to be completed. He wuss's out. Don't try to feed us b.s. about him because you are happy about his interview on the NFL network. Lol!
Mark Sanchez spent most of his first season being told not to throw his body info harm's way. They actually had to bring in Joe Girardi to teach him how to slide because he was so reckless with his body. Anyone that doesn't remember that is a fucking idiot. After Haloti Ngata destroyed him in 2010, he started getting happy feet. Quarterbacks tend to stop throwing their bodies into the grinder after a significant injury. I remember before the Pollard incident, I used to think that Tom Brady was a robot. He took hit after hit, bounced up like nothing happened and kept going. It was very frustrating for anyone that actually paid attention, unlike tbruner. After that knee happened, Brady started throwing the ball away when he was under pressure. And making mistakes. And sometimes he even threw picks. A significant hit or injury effects the psyche of a QB. Stop pretending that Sanchez is an isolated incident.
sancho is a bit strange in a few ways. he is very tough in that he rarely comes off the field and when he does he typically goes back in. HOWEVER, he is a complete cunt under pressure he folds up like a sissy everytime a guy breaks free or even should break free. thats the reason for all the jump balls, all the balls hitting guys in the back of the head, all of the balls out way too early.
And. byzs retort notwithstanding. On that play, Wilfork is throwing Brandon Moore at him(whch, is why Moore is sittong home btw). Go ahead, post the clip. Moore is off his heels, getting tossed backwards into Sanchez. hmy:
I seem to remember Brady struggling with pressure before the Pollard incident. Most notably in Super Bowl XLII. The Giants whole game plan revolved around pressuring Brady and it seemed to work out alright for them. What was the significant injury to Sanchez? The shoulder? Do we even know exactly what the injury was? I know it was rumored to be a stinger but I never heard anything concrete about it. Did you? Whatever the reason Sanchez has been horrible under pressure. Some guys can take big shots and they don't let it affect them. Remember the big hit Eli took against us in a preseason game a couple years ago? It didn't seem to affect him the next season when he played the 49ers in the NFC Championship Game. He took some big hits in that game but continued to hang in the pocket. Blame it on an injury or whatever but had that been Sanchez there is no way he is hanging in the pocket like that. Hardly! I will be ecstatic if I lose. :grin: Good luck with starting at 3-1 though. I hope it happens.
If the Colts could win 11 games last year the Jets can win 11 games this year. They're extremely unlikely to do that but there have been some pretty big one year turnarounds recently and the Jets did go 6-10 last year not 1-15. The Jets are more likely to win 11 games this year than the Colts were last year or the Fins in 2008.
I know you aren't forgetting that both those teams went from shit at QB to really good QBs. Those teams also cleaned house and hired new coaches, the Phins a new GM. With that said I can't really agree the Jets are more likely to see that happen.
Who said anything about an isolated incident? He happens to be the Qb of the team we jet fans like. If you can't see why nacho sucks as the Qb, that's not my fault! Any body that can't see that our franchise Qb is a joke, is an idiot!
Junc, you should probably reread what I wrote, and break down my post into multiple quotes if you want to respond. This was all over the place and didn't really address any of my points except Rodgers being elite which you credit he was elite because he won a SB. But it's the chicken or the egg argument with that sentence, was he elite before he won the SB, or did the SB run make him elite? I think the SB run plus his dominance of basically the NFL at the QB position next year pushed him into the elite category. I don't buy a SB run putting you into the elite category, hence I don't have Flacco or Eli there. Oh and FYI if you do break down my post, Brady in 2001 playoffs, I ended up disregarding the Champ game and using (16+13)/2 to take his average (hence the just below 15 comment since 30/2 is 15 and 29/2 would be slightly lower). You complain about the blizzard game, which funny enough, was the high scoring game of that average. If we take out the blizzard game, he led his team to 13 ppg. If we include the blizzard game it's just under 15. If we only take regulation, he averaged 26 over the two games, or a perfect 13 because we have (13+13)/2. Now to the point of the 2 years later you want to bring up an example of Brady scoring a lot after halftime, great. Good for you, it has no relevance on the 2001 average because 1) it wasn't in the 2001 playoff run, therefore I can't include scoring in 2003 vs a different team in a 2001 average 2) It was in the future, not something you saw Brady do in the past 3) It was a different team, different setting, different game 4) You can't create a 2001 playoff ppg average by speculating Brady would have replicated the offensive performance he put on 2 years later.
