kurtsimonw Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 The Pats are excellent and very efficient in what they do. But my God, I don't think I've seen such a boring NFL team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leviramsey Posted October 30, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted October 30, 2015 Gronkowski is now 1 TD behind Shannon Sharpe for the all-time lead among TEs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I think the only thing stopping him getting the all-time TE lead is injuries, which he has a big problem with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I think the Peyton v Brady debate is a dead one now. Brady obviously having far more success and doing it with inferior players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted October 30, 2015 Moderator Share Posted October 30, 2015 I think the Peyton v Brady debate is a dead one now. Brady obviously having far more success and doing it with inferior players.I'd tend to agree. Saying that, I am always a little cautious gauging individual ability based on the amount of superbowl rings a team wins. Dan Marino says hi. But in Manning's case I think his lack of success in post-season really is down to him. All too often it's him that doesn't turn up. If he adds a ring this season then maybe the discussion could be re-opened a little, but if his legacy remains as it is today - or worse - he adds another post-season failure to the list (which is looking like a distinct possibility), then you can't really put him above Brady in any list, other than the one listing regular season flat track bullies.

chrissmith921 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Came back the other day from hopping over to see Patriots @ Colts and Saints @ Colts - all this makes me worry about Monday nightThat could be NASTY.Colts --> 0 pass rush (I'd be confident of standing in there and delivering a strike), throw it away from Adams/Davis and you've got a completion or a receiver led drop, and so long as you don't run it at Anderson on the DL, you've got a 5 yard gain on a run.I've never seen such an easily dissected defense from a supposed 'Superbowl Contender' (as per pre-season claims!) - thank god for the AFC South and the fact the other 3 teams should be named Ginger Stepchild 1, 2 or 3 because that'll guarantee a career of playoff appearances for Luck - but they need to fix that damn defensePatriots - very very effective, not as clinical as they have been IMO - just effective at getting things done they need to do. But yes, BORING. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted October 30, 2015 Moderator Share Posted October 30, 2015 The Colts have done that before though. A few years back they defaulted their way through the regular season with no rush defence and then lo and behold they got one for the playoffs. As for the likes of the Patriots, I think regular season is something they're just accustomed to sleep-walking through. They'll be better in post-season. As for Denver. I'm hoping they experience the same change on offence as the Colts have to do on defence. That we'll evolve over the season and be a different proposition in the knockouts.The big(ger) sides just tend to get things done. It'll be largely the same sides fighting it out when push comes to shove. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 This is probably the worst NFL season in a long time. There's very few good teams at all. Even the 4 unbeaten teams have only won a combined 2 games against teams over .500. What's wrong with the league? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted October 30, 2015 Moderator Share Posted October 30, 2015 You can only beat what's put in front of you though. It's not the unbeaten teams' fault that their schedule has yet to take off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 (edited) Apparently the NFL swept the Jets locker room at Gillette looking for bugs, and not the creepy crawly kind... Goodell wants to take us down, but it's gonna sink him Edited October 30, 2015 by maqroll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 The Pats are excellent and very efficient in what they do. But my God, I don't think I've seen such a boring NFL team.Brady, Gronk, Edelman and Lewis are all pretty electrifying IMO.And Collins is the most underrated defensive player in the league.
