The Official 2012 NFL Thread v. All aboard the Kaepernick bandwagon!

It wouldn't be like Care to get carried away with one game would it! 8(

Kaepernick is now the 3rd best running QB in the NFL and Alex Smith is elite. Fucking lolz.

Flacco has won the most games in the league out of all QB's in the last 4 years and hasn't lost a game at home for 2 and 1/2 years. He's better than Brady + Manning
 
if Manning or Brady were on Baltimore they would have won more games than they did with Flacco lets be reasonable here

Eagles are crashing and burning but im hoping they finally get rid of the entire front office and get someone who can actually draft in here before that high pick rolls around. If they dont take the best player available like they should have done the past two years im gonna be pissed. Hopefully they dont feel the need to go after a QB just yet
 
Flacco is not even in the same conversation as Brady or Manning, or Brees and Rodgers for that matter.

Yes I know that Smith may not be the most exciting QB to watch, but there is no arguing his effectiveness.

Here is the Pro Football Focus cheat sheet for the NFC Probowl this year. Notice the entire 49ers o-line is on it, taking 5 of the 8 total spots. Insane.

but more importiantly

don't forget about leftwich!

and jason campbell
(re-read some posts in this thread by a certain poster and this will make sense )

by favorite quote was like 'campbell is going to have a good game i think he can put up 13 points"

lol
 
the best player available
cause that's really objective and something you can realistically measure with accuracy

especially guys like us, we have an eye for football talent

many of the best players in the league were taken after the 4th round
 
no its not dude

the Eagles took Brandon Graham over Earl Thomas and Jason P-P, both positions they suck dick at now
 
every team has that problem

bad picks and who they could of had at that pick

every.single.team

and to get gritty, JPP and thomas or any productive player in the league might not be who they are if it weren't for the team and system they were drafted in

ryan pickett was a complete bust for st.louis from '01-'06 and now he's pretty damn good lining up for the pack the past 6 years
 
yeah except I was at my TV that day literally screaming for them to take Earl Thomas
 
^ The eagles were probably the best team year after year throughout the 2000's to not win a super bowl. Between 2000-2010 they made the playoffs all but 2 years, with one conference champ but a loss in the super bowl. So for them to be doing this badly and likely missing the playoffs for a second year in a row is a sign that it's time to shake things up there. You've gotta go back to 1999 for the last consecutive year they didn't make the playoffs.

Andy Reid did a great job with the team up until recently. He took over in 1999 and the following year started their regular playoff appearances. Maybe his sons death has affected his coaching, but whatever the case may be, he needs out of Philadelphia.
 
yeah youre telling me. Eagles started downhill when Jim Johnson died and their defense became soft. They let guys like Dawkins, Trotter, and not quite as good as those two but still solid players like Sheldon Brown, Lito Sheppard, and Quinten Mike go without really replacing them. Not to mention the O line cant stay healthy for shit, Mike Vick gets happy feet too fast to be behind this line. The guy who made everything go was Westbrook though, he made Mcnabbs career with his YAC.

04 was it man, they could have won that shit but McNabb was throwing up on the sidelines. Same thing with the Conf. Champ loss to the Bucs, I fully believe they would have beaten the Raiders just as bad as the Bucs did

fuck Ronde Barber, fuck the entire Barber household actually, although Tiki was usually good for an untimely fumble
 
you can have mikell back

he might do the little things and bring some vet leadership to the youngest team in the nfl(rams)

but he is simply not a playmaker, at all

he forced a fumble on sanchez this past sunday(which wasn't even recovered)

that's about the biggest play i can recall

I wasn't exactly being serious about Flacco being better than Brady + Manning! I, more than anyone, can see how ridiculous a statement that is.


I put Smith's effectiveness down to Harbaugh's brilliant coaching. His game benefits greatly and his flaws are hidden playing on a team that has one of the best OL, running backs, the best defense, one of the best tight ends and coaches that limit his passing game to protect the ball. SF even have one of the best kicker and punter duo to take even more pressure off him. I watch SF as much as I can to see that defense pulverize teams but Kaepernick made the offense exciting to watch on Sunday. It would've been really interesting if Cutler was playing or Chicago's offense had clicked.

Anyway it's not a bad problem to have. I'd probably start Smith on Sunday @ NO though. It's not an easy place to play even for a veteran working with silent counts, signals etc.
 
Last year the chargers put a whooping on Baltimore i think we might win but still won't make the playoffs
 
Looks like Kaepernick will start in New Orleans....... tighten your seatbelts.

lol good job Walt. NFL has some of the most ridiculous rules in sport. Think it's time Walt Coleman took up that bed in the nursing home.
 
And its hanson, with the miss.

Incoming riots in detroit, I hope the media crucifies shwartz. Feel bad for the lions though.
 
After the 49ers/Lions game last year ive always taken pleasure in seeing Jim Shwartz squirm. I agree about the rule though, so dumb. The terror in the refs eyes when he announced the call to fans in Detroit was priceless.
 
Detriot still had their big chance but for a league that prides itself on a replay and challenge system, fuck ups like that should never happen. That rule needs to be fixed instantly before a team that matters get hurt :D


The terror in the refs eyes when he announced the call to fans in Detroit was priceless.

It was nothing to do with the muffed punt call not given or the free TD against them. The fans were still foaming at the mouth from having to sit through 10 minutes of Kid Rock!
