WOW there's actually a bloke on a Patriots forum I go on that said and I quote "I will say it now and then go for a while Tom Brady is past it, he cannot face pressure, we would, as I suggetsed in 2008, have been better sticking with Matt Cassell"

All because we lost a game

Never laughed so hard in my life and I think the guy is being serious

I'm guessing he's a newbie bandwaggoner or a massive WUM, either that or on crack cocaine

I take it he didn't see Cassell's display at the Chargers. My word he was bad. The game losing pick was a joke!

3-0 in fantasy but it's all down to luck. This week was my first decent week. Expecting the wheels to come off soon.

Beat two decent teams in a year. Never said you were a poor team, said you weren't as good as you make out.

I never made us out to be world beaters and always maintained that it'd be at least 2 or 3 years before we are ready to compete. We were just never given any credit for the wins last year because we beat teams with losing records. I could accept that had we have gone 10-6 the year before but we were the exact opposite. We went from 3-13 to 10-6 in 12 months. No matter who you play, that is a damn good turn around. People seem to forget just how bad we were and how much of a turnaround we made.

The only player I big up a load is Josh. In freemans first 3 seasons as a starter he has gone...

2009: 3-6
2010: 10-6
2011: 2-1

He is a winning QB and 8 of the 15 wins have been 4th quarter comebacks. This kid is for real and yes, he has his bad throws, but when the pressure is on he knows what to do. As we continue to build around him we will have a team that will be capable of having a chance. The front 7 already looks like it will be a force over the next few years and we have 3 rookies and 3 2nd year players in there. A bit of work needs to be done on our O line and the secondary needs to be strengthened but this team right now has the potential to be as good, if not better, than the Bucs of the last 90's/early 2000's.

TBH mate with some of the crap he comes out with I'm convinced he's never seen a game, sounds like a troll to me but he's been a member for years!

His username is Mark

Pretty pleasing overall start to the year from the Packers. Nice to be 3-0. A-Rod and the offence are playing extremely well at the minute and getting us the wins when our defence has been playing poor. We really need to get some production opposite Clay because he is just being doubled all game- time for some crazy blitz packages to be brought out.

2-1 in the NFL.com fantasy league. Very pleased with that. Got a really good team and some nice potential on the bench. (3-0 in the ESPN league i have an unbelievable team in that league.)

Is everybody ready to admit I was correct that Matt Cassel is absolute garbage?

People only ever said that he wasn't the worst QB in the league. Your fantasy team is good to be fair.

Well he's been sheeite so far this season, at least as far as my fantasy teams are concerned

Ask the Vikes fans how Sheeite he was at thier place last week

And his poor stats are more to do with the play calling. He hardly threw the ball in the 2nd half on Sunday night. Olsen had us running it as we had a 13 point lead. He has thrown 4 ints though this year but 2 were catchable deflections that wern't his fault. The other 2 were just plain bad throws both in the endzone to a covered receiver. I have said all along that when he tries to guide the ball in he makes mistakes. When he trows the ball he is very good.

Re: The All new NFL Chat thread including playoff talk : Tue Sep 27, 2011 4:09 pm  

So he's thrown twice as many picks as touchdowns and yet he's still awesome? Then when he makes mistakes it's not his fault it's the coaches for calling the wrong plays?

Guy looks a good prospect for sure but you need to stop been so blinded by him being on your team. Bradford is the future of the Rams but I'm honest enough to say he's been brilliant between the 20s for us this year but stinks in the redzone which is worrying.

Think you'll find out how good the Bucs are in week 6. When New Orleans visit. Not sure how good the defeat of the Falcons was given that they look as though they are going to stink on the road this season. Hope you turn out awesome as I have the Bucs in a Madden league that uses the weekly roster updates, better you do the better my team gets

Re: The All new NFL Chat thread including playoff talk : Tue Sep 27, 2011 10:20 pm  

Very good does not equal awesome

And stats as in his yardage numbers, not as in TD's to Ints (which aren't great). Greg Olsen is running the ball and we're going 3 and out a hell of a lot. When he lets Josh throw the ball we look a better team and he puts up numbers pretty quick. I also said when he tries to guide the ball he makes mistakes and still looks young.

You guys like to make out that i'm some big homer and no Bucs can do any wrong but the truth cant be further away. I only really post Bucs related stuff on here when we do some good. I leave all the moaning for the TBayBucs board
