2011 NFL Season Thread

I'm not gonna sit here and cry about it, he did the same thing to Dalton. If anything, the game of football today is becoming a joke. The guy is good, if you don't want him taking a "cheap shot" then block him. Back in the old days of football, things like this were common. You can't tell me he and the Lions defensive line didn't get in Brady's head tonight because he was missing throws he'd make 99 times out of 100. I'm not saying ripping someones head off late is acceptable, but that's just who he is and you can either love him or hate him, I don't see him changing the way he plays based off of what other people think.

Thank You.

Suh is shit..

Lion fans.. Psh.. Bust.. fuggin bust..

 

[The Guid]

Are you saying that Suh's hit on Dalton got in Brady's head or the defensive pressure did?

 

[The Young One]

I just view Suh as the classic example of a player who you love if he's on your team. And you despise if he's a opposing player.

Defensive pressure. The Lions D-Line was causing major havoc, Brady was afraid he might not make it through the night, but he did.

The Kevin Youkilis of the NFL

I havent met a single non-Sox fan who likes Youk

That is exactly it, any team/fan would LOVE to have Suh on their team. I just think his play is being taken out of proportion by a good bit. That Suh/Cuter situation was a prime example of how big of pussy league this is turning into.

 

[elcheato]

Of course you're going to like a good player on your favorite team, but it doesn't mean he isn't dirty and should be liked league wide..

 

[Lake Louise]

Pretty much how it is. You know Lions fans will love just about everything he does, because we have him on our team. If he was on another team, they'd love it. Not everyone, but the majority would.

As for the game, I liked what I saw all around. Would be nice to limit those big plays here and there, but overall I liked it. Now i'm just hoping for a loss in the 4th game because a 4-0 preseason scares me(exp. 2008)

 

[WHO-DEY-BENGALS_18]

I'm not saying he should be liked by others, generally when someone is good at what they do, they are going to have several haters, but I'm sure they thrive off of it and just use it as extra motivation. I'm pretty sure every team has had players that have done dirty things at some point. He's only been in the NFL for a year and has done a couple things that people didn't like and he's instantly labeled as a dirty player. I look at the Steelers defense as mean and dirty and they are towards the top every year and all offenses dread playing them.

 

[elcheato]

All it takes is a couple dirty plays to get the label, because of the idiotic stuff he's doing is easily avoidable. And the Steelers defense as a whole isn't dirty, it's just James Harrison, who I'm sure you have a huge problem with, but not Suh..

The Steelers have a mean, physical defense and that's what makes them so good. I think that's what Suh brings as a player, but I'm sure he will quit doing all of the unnecessary stuff, he hasn't liked the fines too much.

 

[WHO-DEY-BENGALS_18]

I expect Ryan Mathews to have a big season for the Chargers if he can stay healthy. Chargers offense will be unstoppable with a good running game, it nearly already is.

 

[RipCity32]

You're gonna get raped.

because New England has outscored opponents 78-21 this preseason so far.

The Bucs owned the Chiefs, a pretty good football team, 25-0 in week 1. Next? a 31-14 smashdown by the Patriots.

The only shot the Lions have of winning is if they manage to get pressure to the QB, and Belichick pulls Brady to save him for the regular season.

If Brady plays, you lose

Any of your QBs could pick apart their secondary.

LOLWUT?

SMH.

Fuck that shit your talking about Bengals..he fucks up one of our core players I'm pissed. Bengals don't have a future right now outside of AJ. He fucks with one of the core..I'm pissed. I hope one of our lineman throw his ass down and give him a reality check...but our line is soft as fuck.

I think you need to chill a little bit, I think there's a lot of overreaction to all of this. Of course I don't want to see anyone get injured over something that shouldn't happen, but with football, it's hard saying what could happen. As far as the Bengals, I haven't sugarcoated it one bit, I've said all along they are in rough shape and I'm not expecting some kind of miracle this year, but I'd be very happy if there was a miracle, so I'm not sure what this shot is at the Bengals, I haven't even brought the Bengals up in this Suh conversation aside from Dalton nearly getting his head ripped off.

I will disagree with you on a few things, however. The Bengals have a lot of young players that have bright futures ahead, A.J. Green is NOT the only thing going for us. Obviously Dalton is going to be a big part of our success and the Bengals seem very committed to him. We have Dalton, Shipley, Gresham, Green, Simpson, Benson/Scott -- Right there is a nice core of players that this team is going to be dependent upon. If anything, the Bengals look doom and gloom right now, but the future looks bright if all of these players turn into what they are capable of. We had a top 5-10 defense in '09 and were killed by injuries last year, I don't think this team is as bad as you make it seem, just a lot of young players.

I understand the general perception when it comes to the Bengals, but it's not like they haven't done anything, they have won one of the toughest divisions in football twice in the past six years, which isn't great by any means but it's tough when you have the Steelers & Ravens in your division. They swept the entire AFC North in '09. Also, to overcome poor management and still at least accomplish this is nice to see, I just want to see some consistency. They were 4-12 last year but could have easily been 10-6 had one bounce go their way in several close games. I'm not saying I'm happy with the way things are, but I am just tired of the bashing that I hear on a continual basis and there's nothing I can do about it other than stick up for them and hope it gets better. All bad things come to an end at some point, I'm just waiting for that time to come and hopefully it's soon.

However, I am not one to hide my feelings on how I really feel about the current team situation. I just hope Dalton can work out for us, we need something positive to happen. This team has players that want to win and I won't question that, only thing I question is how much the owner cares about winning and commitment.

Yeah my bad its why I deleted it. I went a little too hard on the bengals. Y'all be fine. We all agreed that Suh is the player you love on your team and you hate em if he's on another. Now we're over it.
