  1. Why? It's not like either was a central component of their team's rise to the Super Bowl. Credit the defenses. Are you offended that Trent Dilfer and Brad Johnson won rings too? Yes. Especially since Dilfer beat the Giants to get his. That's not entirely true, it's just the fact that QBs in the league get judged by how many rings they've won even when they had little, or in Dilfer's case NOTHING to do with winning it. I think "game managers" are bad for football, much like I hate the way baseball is turning into a game over who has the best middle relief because starters can't pitch 7 innings and closers can't pitch 3 days in a row. I'm not saying we need a league of superstar QBs, but when the media spends weeks/years blowing mediocre QBs who won playoff games and/or titles because their defense was legendary, that doesn't sit well with me. As someone whose team has always been about run, run, run, smashmouth defense that style is very boring to watch even when my team is playing it, so I can only imagine how much worse it is for someone not rooting for them. Since the NFL is a copycat league, I won't be interested in seeing guys putting less and less responsibility on the QB whose job these days seems to be to try not to lose. I'd much rather see a QB go out and win a game or lead his team to victory, not go 20 for 35 for 175 yards with nothing but underneath stuff and hand it off 30 times. I'll take win a super bowl with a game manager style QB (Trent Dilfer!!) over repeatedly losing in the playoffs despite having out of this world regular season stats (Looking straight at Peyton Manning).
  2. I thought about trying to donate blood again and get a clear cut answer but no clue. and the tentacles thing..uh..lol..my life isn't some wierd japanese anime..
  3. Bears/Ravens SB! I was gonna say how funny it'd be if the Ravens and Giants met up in the SB this year but I doubt that will happen.
  4. Im bumping this thread as an excuse not to start a new thread somewhere, but I need some help with what Ive quoted in my sig. Im going fucking nuts over here right now.
  5. I thought this was gonna be about Ritas Italian Ice place..
  6. Im more and more taking every post over at Joystiq with a grain of salt and considering them trying to start a flame war from some side.
  7. I said last night it was going to be a close game...well, 1 point is as close as you can get without a tie.
  8. Chris Britton was referred to be me as Sidney Ponson Jr..I think Wright has more of a shot in the Os rotation anyway, Id imagine hed be ahead of Rodrigo Lopez and Hayden Penn for the 5th spot, with Lopez staying put in the bullpen.
  9. Titans fans are going nuts, theres been about 5 penalties against the Titans plus that blown fumble call. Titans fumbled on a fake kick on 4th down, and they got the first down but the rule is that the only guy that can advance a fumble on 4th down is the guy that fumbled it so Ravens ball instead of Titans ball.
  10. Heres a new one..Titans challenged a fumble that was clearly a fumble but the refs called down by contact on the field..the review came back and because there was a huge pile/scrum for the football, the refs held the call of down by contact because they couldn't see who recovered the football even though the Titans came out of the pile with it.
  11. This Ravens game is getting ugly. The Ravens are gonna be 3rd down and about 40 here maybe..or not..clearly the Titans will win the challenge and the fumble.
  12. a 6-2 team? And at least for now, they are moving the ball offensively, a score here would put them right back in the game when it looked horrible down 26-7. I knew this would be a close game but I figured it would be the Ravens building up the early lead only to let it get close late..not any of this 26 points in the first half crap.. and Im begging SD to pull out something vs Cincy..28-14 now there.
  13. Good to see the Redskins getting trounced soundly this week..
  14. Its looking like 3 of the 6-2 division leading teams in the AFC are in danger of losing (SD,NE,Baltimore) to teams with .500 records or worse. Ravens need to pull this one out..they could at least be remotely back in it here depending on if they score or not. 26-17 Titans at the Half after Stover nails his 35th straight FG
  15. oh yeah..Buffalo is really getting blown out by the Colts..its 10-10.
  16. Titans just missed a 41 yard FG and theres time enough to maybe at least drive for a FG themselves.. and now Todd Heap is hurt.
  17. Musa Smith is out with a neck injury..just what the Ravens need is injuries adding more insult.. and McNair passes to Mughelli for a 38 yard TD. 26-14 Titans.
  18. Every one of those points has been proven false through 17 minutes of this game. and the Ravens just got called offsides on a FG try to give the Titans a first down.. 26-7 Titans with 10 minutes left in the 2nd quarter.
  19. Its 19-7 Titans.. I fucking knew it.
  20. The Ravens are getting their asses handed to em so far.. its 12-7 Titans now after a safety. and its about to be 19-7..
  21. Vince Young TD the ravens defense is absolute s-h-i-t today.
  22. travis henry already has 50 yards rushing on 4 carries not even halfway through the first quarter...and the ravens arent even giving up 70 per game on the year. ouch and the Titans are back in the red zone again..wtf?
  23. Holy Crap..McNair to Clayton 65 yard TD. Clayton is emerging as the Ravens #1 reciever ahead of Mason oddly enough. And to Naiwf..the Ravens have only allowed 10 points in the first quarter the whole season..now 13..but anyway they aren't used to giving up points like that on a first drive.
  24. Titans are off to a hot start on their first drive.. I Dont like this one bit. Held em to a FG inside the 5. Ravens #1 Red Zone Defense !
  25. The Bills could win.. oh and THE EPITOME OF A MAN'S TEAM? Please never refer to them as that again. The Titans always give the Ravens fits..it'll be a closer game than 14 points..but the Ravens will win.
