And at least they have defense. Unlike the Pats. Who played Sterling Moore at cornerback on something like half the snaps this past game. Sterling Moore was cut from the Raiders' practice squad earlier this year. And then there's the whole playing-receivers-as-safeties bullshit they do. Seriously. That defense is fucking terrible.

yeah, he sux.......

Yes he does.
 
This is eom you're talking to. Since he believes individual games can be used to negate identifying overall trends, he probably believes that one pass defended means Sterling Moore is a good player now.
 
A pass defensed that Lee Evans really should have hung on to, anyway.

It's a single elimination tournament. He doesn't need to trend well, he only needs to play well a couple plays in one game where it matters. Random shit happens, outliers happen, guys play better or worse than they normally should. It's not an exercise in bean counting. Especially this era.

How David Tyree trended is irrelevant too. He did it when it mattered.

Woulda, coulda, shoulda - it wasn't an unforced error.

Yeah yeah. One play does not a good cornerback make, and it certainly doesn't mean he's going to repeat that against Victor Cruz.
 
yeah, why should winning games or making plays matter?

all I know is all week long all I've heard is how the worst defense in the league was going up against the best defense from the only good division in football --- after all, baltimore and pitt were the top 2 teams in the afc because of their stellar defense.
I didn't hear anybody wondering how baltimore was going to stop benny.

now that I think about it, new england really has been pretty lucky the past ten years........

should be a good superbowl, anyway.

Cornerback wins, baby!

You can't just look at one play and think that one play determines how good someone is.
 
I feel sympathy for you, Sander. Sounds like Mike Sherman is progressing through the HC interview process for the Bucs. I warn you now, his foremost talent is saying and doing all the right things in interviews and performance evaluations. That skill will keep him around a year or two longer than he deserves, just like it did with the Packers. He'll get the benefit of the doubt the first year, but the trend will be a slow downward slide as long as he's the coach.

Just a couple weeks ago when he got fired from Texas A&M I was joking with some of my friends that maybe he could get a job as a high school coach.

Kind of hard to slide downward when you're already at the bottom of the hill.
 
I think it's kind of insulting when they use euphemisms like young and hungry to spin how cheap and shitty they are, then go hire lazy fatfucks like Haynesworth. Strokers. Morris was out of his depth.
 
Yeah. Morris being so badly out of his depth seems to be why they're going old and discipline-heavy now. Kind of weak, but still, should help with that young team.

They did go after that Oregon coach too, so who knows, maybe Sherman is just a smoke screen.
 
This will be the Revenge Bowl for the Patriots. It's time for Eli Manning to get smacked around like the water-headed downs syndrome baby he is.

His superbowl win was a fluke.

Bucs are gonna hire Tony Soprano's favorite coach, because dude totally dominated the toughest conference in college football. Guy's a .500 coach in the Big East who had one lucky year. They need to change their mascot to a shipwreck.

Yeah, getting Rutgers to six bowl games in the past seven years, winning five of them, totally not impressive. Rutgers was doing so great before Schiano got there, right?
