Over reactionary?

I still like them to get past the first round of playoffs, which is pretty good considering the complete dud they now have at quarterback.

LT Profits · 10-23-08, 01:13 PM

Pats are middle of the road team. Denver sucks, so don't let Monday performance fool you.

LT Profits · 10-23-08, 01:15 PM

Pats won't even make playoffs, Buffalo is winning division and no team in East will have good enough record for wild card.

R3Sports · 10-23-08, 01:15 PM

Pitt has to be in the top five.

LT Profits · 10-23-08, 01:19 PM

1. Giants
2. Tennessee
3. Pittsburgh
4. BUFFALO (no, your eyes are not deceiving you)
5. Tampa Bay

l7ustin · 10-23-08, 01:25 PM

1. Giants
2. Titans
3. Steelers
4. Bills
5. Redskins
6. Bears
7. Packers
8. Buccs
9. Broncs
10. Panthers
11. Eagles
12. Cowboys
19. Patriots

R3Sports · 10-23-08, 01:25 PM

Dallas can not be in the top five right now, with Romo down, and a 4-3 record....

Plus, Tampa and NYG coming up, tough call.

LT Profits · 10-23-08, 01:28 PM

I don't thinks Skins are a top 5 team. I get it that they won on road at Dallas and Philly, but they then lost to Rams and barely got by Browns. Too inconsistent to be top 5 IMO.

Agree!

l7ustin · 10-23-08, 01:33 PM

ya but they are 5-2...buccs cant play on the road and their wins are not near as impressive as the skins.

skins struggled with rams and browns but rams crushed the cowboys and browns crushed the giants....at least they beat the browns.

SBR Lou · 10-23-08, 01:33 PM

Throwing Pittsburgh in a top 5 on any day other than April 1st is inappropriate.

LT Profits · 10-23-08, 01:33 PM

My comment was toward 17ustin, who had the keen sense to match my top 4 teams.

They get mentioned in high regard because of their name and defense. They have no offensive line and their QB is overrated, their head coach also ranks among one of the most incompetent in the league.

LT Profits · 10-23-08, 01:37 PM

Bucs could easily be 7-0, their two losses were by 3 and 4 points.

It is not the Bucs style to win "impressively" because of their great defense and conservative offense. Heck, they dominated Seattle Sunday night and yet the final was only 20-10.

That said, when they have NEEDED some offense, they have gotten some big passing games from their QBs.

l7ustin · 10-23-08, 01:38 PM

Anyone who calls Roeth overrated is like me before this season. Honestly I had not watched them play. I have watched Big Ben every game this year (almost) and he is not overrated. The guy is tough, he makes big plays, and he is flat out good. He runs that offense he makes it tick, and in the 4th quarter down 3 i will take ben over anyone else this year.

O-line yes is not very good. But Ben being overrated is absolute horseshit, and the defense is as good as any in the league. Tomlin is fine as the head coach.

I don't know Crazy, did you happen to catch that Sunday Night game vs Jacksonville? Big Ben carried that team on his back, clearly leading them to victory.

They might not have the stellar O-Line, but the defense is defiantly holding up. Also, having both there running backs out for the last couple of weeks, doesn't help either.

l7ustin · 10-23-08, 01:41 PM

Donovan is a choke artist
Romo makes big plays but he also turns the ball over more than anyone
Eli is inconsistent
Brady is hurt
Peyton sucks this year

Big Ben is an IRON man you are right he doesnt have a line, but he still hangs in there takes hits and gets it done. and he doesnt sit out because of a pinky. the dude has a dislocated shoulder you can see him wince with half his throws but he still takes hits, he still gets up, he still makes big passes when the steelers need it.

Fair enough. We'll see how the year plays out, but other than the liability they have at QB almost all of the team is the same with the exception of losing Samuel and Stallworth to other teams, and their offensive line isn't as good as people believed.

I just think they have enough talent and an obvious coaching advantage over enough teams that if Cassel can play decent enough, they can squeak into the playoffs and maybe upset a team or two.
