NFL Discussion Thread: Pats win SB XLIX. Offseason begins

[SneakerProSr.]

If your offense depends on running the ball you aren't beating Detroit in the playoffs.

Its gonna take Romo or Rodgers to be beat us with their arms and playmakers.

At this point...I don't think it's really a prisoner of the moment type thing to pull a Shoes and ask, "What's stopping a Cowboys vs. Seahawks NFC Title Game?"

Both teams are clearly head & shoulders above everyone else in the NFC and (most importantly) are built to play in the postseason.

I'm not a predictions and rankings type, but it really seems inevitable. AR might not agree with me though.

cowboys at lambeau would be one hell of a game

How the **** are the Cowboys head and shoulders above anyone in the NFC?

I like them this year and predicted them to win the East but what the hell man.

yea i can see Denver, New England, or Green Bay ******** the bed in a game and getting booted. Don't see anyone winning in Seattle though

I know the Lions have a historically great run defense.

Just your annual reminder that the Jaguars took a punter over Russell Wilson and Blaine Gabbert over J.J. Watt.

They might win a close one but unless you throwing the ball well ain't no team "beating the breaks" off Detroit.

I hate stuff like this, as if everybody didn't pass on Russ multiple times.

At least the other teams didn't draft a punter instead.

Remember when you were saying this **** last year
some people never learn

There's a difference between passing on him and taking a damn punter over him in the 3rd round.

Field position game is important....?

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Cowboys ain't head and shoulders above nobody. Especially not Green Bay. Seahawks maybe cuz we've seen them dominate in the postseason, they're proven. Cowboys? We'll see.

Head and shoulders? Idk about that lol. Dallas looks beatable. Seahawks scare the **** outta me tho. That defense is just unreal and Russ is a gamer.

GB's D been pretty good aside from the 2nd half of the ATL game and when everything is clicking on offense, we're hard to stop. Like someone said, I think it's gonna come down to Seattle/GB. Dallas looks good too but I think I take those two teams ahead of them, maybe even the Lions. 

Yeah, maybe I shouldn't have said "clearly" for the 'Boys. They're more debatable than the Hawks, but I believe in them this year. Their o-line is godly and you have to pick your poison with Dez or the running game.

The fact that they can win on the road in tough environments helps their case too.

AR's current level of play might make everything I say irrelevant. 

I really don't trust their defense though.

Lions d-line vs. Cowboys o-line needs to happen at some point. Unstoppable force, immovable object.

It may very well happen in the Wild Card round if GB handles business and beat the Lions

Obviously, but I don't believe it's necessary to take a punter in the draft. Maybe two punters are selected in the draft every year, and they are usually taken in the 5th round or later. I know the Skins took a punter in '08 only to have him cut a few weeks into the season. How'd you feel when the Steelers took Daniel Sepulveda in the 4th round in '07?

 

[SneakerProSr.]

Sneaker pro gives no damns.

Why should I man?

We have one of the best defenses in the league. People get so caught up in Stafford they don't realize he ain't emmm got to play well for us win.

Dude didn't play great today and we still won going away. Hell if not for a muffled punt and a questionable roughing the kicker penalty they might not have scored.

No team in the NFL is going to run on us period. If you don't have the quarterback and receivers execute a quick strike offense you ain't scoring a lot of points.

In the regular season, you're fine, but with the raised level of play and caliber of opponents teams play in the postseason, Stafford cannot make the mistakes that he's prone too. They will lose.

Oh no doubt I was being sarcastic. That sepulveda pick drove me nuts

He's 16th in the NFL of starting quarterbacks in turnovers.

People tell me I don't watch the games.

my bad, couldn't tell. I was pissed too when the Skins took Durant Brooks. At least Sepulveda was your punter on a Super Bowl winning squad.
