And another thing. You know whats so hilarious to Colts fans in Indy. We dont compare Peyton Manning to anyone. We actually think we have the next Peyton Manning. We realise how great of a QB he is and that when he retires, he might be the best ever. And we're pretty proud about that. Patriot fans need to know that someone is comparing Brady to Montana, because if they arent making that comparison, its a huge insult to them. Most Patriot fans come off as too dumb to even realise how great of a QB they have. If Brady was our QB, we'd think the same thing we think about Manning. We dont need to compare our QB with anyone no matter how close the comparison are. We have something special and we'll tell you that. But Patriot fans are too busy telling people they have the next Joe Montana. No, you have Tom Brady. The guy who might be better then Joe Montana. Why dont you appreciate that instead of holding him up against Joe Montana.

Comparison are fine, but you're fans and the media have taken it to a whole new level. You cant respect the fact that you have a possible legend as your QB. All you can do is compare him to Joe Montana. When Brady goes to the HoF, i'm sure Joe Montana highlights will be run non stop. Here in Indiana, we dont wanna here no Manning is Marino crap. We have Peyton Manning period. We dont need to compare him to anyone nor do we want to. He can be great on his own, without the comparisons in our eyes.

Its the NFL way, keep recycling coaches over and over. A coach fails with one team? Ahh fuck he goes to the TV booth for a few years then he is the greatest coach ever afterwards

To be fair he's done some pretty good work in San Fran, and look how Alex Smith has come on the past year since he started working as the OC. To be honest IMO he'd be dumb to take the Cowboys job as he'd be a lame duck, in SF he has the makings of a really good offence to work with as he likes, and he's probably got job security for at least a few years.

Like say in the preseason or late regular season they say the Georgia Dome will hold the super bowl and the Falcons go to the Super Bowl what will happen? I remeber when Oakland had to travel like 1:18 (hours:minutes)to travel to the Super Bowl.

"mth" they decide the Superbowl location a few year before I think, and if the team that is hosting the Superbowl, is playing in the Superbowl, well they just got lucky.

And no, it has never happened before.

I may be mistaken but I believe it is in Arizona next year.

The thing is if they bring in Rivera he'll want to put the Tampa 2 in, which would mean completely overhauling the defence. Similar situation in Pittsburgh with Tomlin, except he actually got to choose who he wanted his DC to be this year, and they're going to stick with the 3-4 for at least a year.

Yeah, there's a super bowl comittee. I think places apply and then the comittee decide from there. Sometimes there are deals (see: Detroit) where the NFL promises a place if they get a new stadium they will get a super bowl, I doubt Detroit will see another one, having the dome helps, but the typicall weather during that time of year in Michigan kills a lot of the money to be made of tourism. Jacksonville may not see another, they simply didn't have the hotel space to handle the people, they had to bring in cruise liners for people to sleep on.

New Orleans is a great place for the superbowl, personally I wouldn't mind if it's always there. Miami will also be good (weather, facilites etc...).,

Jesus Shuttlesworth

I think Marvin Harrison will have a huge game in the Superbowl. I hope. It'd be fitting for a guy who never really talks or showboats and is on pace to break Jerry Rice's recieving records, to shine in the biggest game. He was great in the media day. Maybe seemed boring, but he was honest and it was refreshing to see him do any media period.

Nah i read a brilliant article on him concerning the Baltimore playoff game. The guy was so humble even before the game . Even when Baltimore fans were barking about 1984 ( let it go already ). He's genuinly a nice guy. I know cause my cousin is a massage therapist and he works on him all the time and tell me all kinds of amazing things about him.

Now Bill Polian on the other hand... He's a dick. But he's cut throat. And this organization needed someone like him. And you cant deny his abilities. But yah, he can be a dick.

I hope they leave the very front rows empty though, it'd be crap trying to see the game through the players.

Brett Farve coming back is a good thing. He's also like one good season away from breaking like 4 major Marino records.

Packers can contend. Just about anyone outside of Detroit can contend in the NFC so why not come back and give it a shot. I'm glad he announced it early. I think the Pack have a shot at a big season next year. I know they'll make the playoffs for sure.

As far as the Superbowl, oddly enough, 2 weeks ago the growing census was that the Colts would roll, now its like 50-50. People are starting to believe in the Bears. Again, if Sexy Rexy has to win the game for the Bears, it aint happening. Everyone talks about Devin Hester and i probably fear him the most, but i think Terrence Wilkins will make a bigs return for us on special teams. He's been poised to break one all year. I'm sticking with my original score of Colts 34 Bears 24. Colts kick a field goal with 2 minutes to go, to seal the deal.

The Packers will never contend until Brett Favre leaves once and for all. All keeping him around does is delay breaking in a new quarterback, which is slowing down the team's development more or less. They're in a rebuilding stage anyway, so taking a year with Aaron Rodgers as the starter or whatever wouldn't be too devastating.

Bill Belliche is a genius

I've always been a big fan of Ted Johnson, the story doesn't shock me, but it doesn't smell right either. This is the same Ted Johnson who when Seau went down told a reporter "I told my friends I'm still in great shape and was expecting a call, and if called I'd be able to play on Sunday"

So, this guy hates Belicheck and claims how Belicheck made him play while ignoring concussions yet a few months (less?) ago he was ready to play for the same coach? Also, the story was actually written before the season started and he asked them not to run it, they (Boston Globe) agreed to hold off, but said they would run it at some point, which Johnson didn't want.

I think it's a case of a guy with some serious post nfl problems, either from injuries or pain med addiction and the depression and until that's all sorted through I can't say if this is true or not.

That being said, every athlete I've heard comment have all said the same thing "If it was that bad and coach told me to play I would have said NO" Clearly, TJ was upset but felt he could play, otherwise he wouldn't have.

VonErichLives

02-04-2007, 09:13 PM

How many more chances will Manning have after this year? - If he doesn't win the SuperBowl this year, will his 'legacy' be written?

I don't think so, he's still young and they still have a great team around him, win or lose I expect them to be a contender for the next few years.

i guess it could be like...week 17 and both teams have already played 8 home games? not sure if that would work

The way you say it makes it sound like it would, but I'm not sure... before they had bye weeks I'd say no, because it would throw off the balance and one team would be short a home game... but with by weeks now, it might work..
