You want to see Dallas make it because it's Americas Team. Everybody loves the Cowboys in some shape, form or fashion, like it or not. I'm hoping our pass rushers, specifically DeMarcus Lawerence and David Irving, step up big during these playoffs... it would be pivotal to making that super bowl run.

I don't. I'd rather catch ebola.

[Jonesizzle]

you'd probably rather catch your team in a playoff appearance.

True, but we need to get a good coach. We haven't had a decent head coach in a while. And I'm not sure if Taylor is the answer at QB. But, this years QB draft class is supposed to be rather weak.

 

Come back when you guys actually have a ring, then I'll give some credence to your opinions on the matter.

This is probably the most ignorant and nonsensical thing I've ever heard.

So because he's a fan of a team that hasn't won a championship in a long time, he can't be critical of any other team? Lol, makes sense... If you were born with a severe mental retardation.

 

Fandom has no impact on knowledge. The fact that the team someone is a fan of hasn't won a Super Bowl doesn't impact their arguments validity.

 

Claiming otherwise is just plain asinine. But, you don't know what you don't know.

 

And fyi, Vanilla Shake, you have the same amount of rings as him....zero. You realize you're not part of the Giants organization, right?

Your argument isn't any more valid than his just because you happen to be a fan of a team with rings. I know you like to think so, but you're wrong.

 

And the team you rooted for this year, this years Giants, doesn't have any rings either. The Giants team that won a championship in 2012 isn't the Giants team that played this year. It's a completely different roster, with a few exceptions.

 

 

But hey, I'm a Bills fan, so according to your stupid logic I probably don't know what I'm talking about.

I really like Tyrod Taylor as a QB. His stats are pretty boggling and is knows how to take care of the football. He might not be the future, but considering this years draft class and the lack of QB free agents, I'd almost guarantee Tyrod will be in a Bills uniform next season. But with coaching changes that could change within a few months.

Alright, alright, in retrospect what I said was stupid. I was just still a little hot under the collar over losing. Of course his opinion does count, as does yours and every other fan of every other team. I didn't mean any actual disrespect with what I said, so I do apologize for my blatant ignorance and I wish all of our ball clubs the best of luck next season. Maybe even a Giants/Bills SB rematch. I'd like to see that.

 

Also I do understand that I'm not a member of the team. I just love them so much that it feels like I'm emotionally with 'em when we win and when we lose. Y'know, the colloquial 'we'.

Does it count if I love to see them fail?

[Jonesizzle]

That definitely counts...

[Geralt of Rivia]

Perfect.

[Jonesizzle]

I'd also like to note that we have Giants, Eagles and Cowboys fans in here Banting at the moment and lonesome Lions and Broncos. All we truly need is a redskins fan and things would get lit up.

 

 

I seen that Tom Brady commented on the whole Giants WR core on yacht on off day thing, what I found interesting was that he allured to he did things he "probably wouldn't have done", but "it just wasn't publicized."

 

 

yup, yup, I'd be very interested to see how Lawrence Taylor would've lasted (he wouldn't), Michael Irvin (he wouldn't) and even Deion Sanders (maybe?)... imagine the image hit Michael Jordan would've taken.

[Geralt of Rivia]

Of course he did. Every player does. This is nothing new. This has happened for decades lol. It's just now there's social media, and the fact it's Beckham, and that they didn't play well.

 

It's the most non-story a non-story can get but people are eating it up for some reason. Guess this is why the media is how it is.

[Jonesizzle]

I know it's nothing new dude, I just find it interesting one of the greatest QBs has said this and no one gives it any attention what so ever.

[Geralt of Rivia]

Because a story that shows how stupid the media acts isn't a story.

[Jonesizzle]

Not as stupid as players getting on a plane and flying to a beach to party on a yacht 6 days before a playoff game but alright... now they have several months to go party.

I see nothing wrong with spending your day off however you want. It didn't affect them in any way. Maybe if they had run wrong routes or had false starts or the like, but no, they just dropped balls. Guess what? That's happened throughout the season.

 

Damnit Broncos signed McCoy

[Jonesizzle]

I don't have a problem either, but doesn't mean they aren't stupid for doing it. Maybe they should've worked on their game instead riding on a yacht... it's the f*cking playoffs and with how the media is they should've known better. They played on of the worst secondaries in the league, come on now.

 

I know it's their day off, but there's no champaign and campaigning any more, especially 6 days before a playoff game.

Detroit‘s receivers must have been on the Yacht too...

Idk.

 

They flew from Washing DC or wherever, to Florida, then probably back to NY after their yacht party. That's a lot to be doing in one day.

 

Even then, OBJ dropped the ball 3 times. Career high, coincidental? Sure but definitely looks bad after that trip. lol

 

 

and no? Still have to interview him and Musgrave.

No, I think the Detroit receivers just aren't that great.

 

I would say you guys should trade up and draft the Clemson WR Mike Williams, but we know what happened the last time the Lions traded up to draft a guy named Mike Williams, or any WR in general whose name isn't Calvin Johnson.

 

Why does a market that doesn't even watch football get another NFL Franchise in its city (LA)?

Edited January 12, 2017 by DOOM!

[iBUCKEYE]

There really are too many WRs named Mike Williams.

 

Apparently some media pundits and fans feel that it should be debated whether or not the Lions show Stafford the money, or part ways with him.

 

I‘d be more concerned about the other way around...

 

 

 

Also f*ck LA. Two teams? Really? What a waste.

Edited January 12, 2017 by iBUCKEYE

[Jonesizzle]

I'd be more shocked if the Lions didn't force Stafford into retirement.

Los Angeles Chargers

[iBUCKEYE]

If my team was the only thing keeping Cleveland from going 0-16 I‘d move too.

[darthYENIK]

No one wants the Chargers in LA now. A year ago, they would've been welcome. Any team was welcome.

 

But now LA has the Rams back, who already had a fan base in town, not much, but it was there, and despite what St Louis media wants you to think they're still there. Now the Chargers are coming in and San Diego fans hate LA. Basically everyone outside of LA hates LA. There's a very minimal Charger fan base in maybe Orange County, and maybe the inland region east of LA, but I doubt you could find many Charger fans in LA that aren't from San Diego and hate LA and will definitely not accept the move.

 

Not that I live in LA, I would have rooted for any team that moved into the area, but now I have the Rams. San Diego has been a team I looked at for years, tried to watch here and there, and just couldn't get behind because they were still too far away, and that was when they were a decent team.

 

So, people in the LA market generally don't want them, the fans in San Diego definitely won't follow the team. And the Rams, to El_Diablo's delight, will hate it because they now have to share the market and stadium.

 

That said, they'll probably do better business in LA. Will it last? Who knows.

[GTA3Rockstar]

Wonder if Dodge will sponsor the name on the stadium.

 

I mean, LA is already sponsoring Dodge. LA Dodge Rams, LA Dodge Chargers, LA Dodgers. Might as well. lol

[darthYENIK]

Aaaand I'm officially older than an NFL head coach.

[GTA3Rockstar]

I already know how those young (<35) head coaches go. That Josh McDuckfuk comin to Denver and ripped it from the inside out.

[Vanilla Shake]

lmfao

 

This just makes me feel so grateful that the team I root for will never relocate. I can't even imagine being a fan of a team that just up and leaves the city that they play for. Must be torturous. Apparently people were egging the front door of the Chargers HQ.

Edited January 13, 2017 by Vanilla Shake

[Funktipus]

So now LA has TWO football teams no one gives a f**k about....

 

Congratulations to the folks in San Diego for not caving in to extortion. Not one CENT of taxpayer money should be used to fund football stadiums for these billionaire owners. Let those mfers pay for it themselves.

[Skarekrow]

Ever thought about what it would look like if the LA Dodgers logo and the TB Lightning logo f*cked to make a hybrid logo? What's that, you said no? Yeah neither did Alex Spanos and the rest of the Chargers organization:

 

 

Divisional round picks:

ATL over SEA

NE over HOU (lol)

PIT over KC (close call)

DAL over GB
