Packers made so many dumb mistakes and they let the Lions hang around. 


Yep. Also tells me how big the Buffalo Bills win was at Detroit in Thanksgiving. They beat a really good team on the road, the Bills

Wasn't that the game there was a bounty on him 

Yep. They destroyed his body, and yet he soldiered back out onto the field and nearly won the game. The pick sealed it and the rest is history… Still wish we could’ve had a Manning Favre Super Bowl.

Manning/Favre Super Bowl would have been historic.

Pete Carroll says, I don't need Russell Wilson, I will just play Geno and still make the playoffs.


Pete Carroll and the Seahawks knew more about RW than anyone else. No one expected RW to be this bad but they knew they’d be better off getting what they could for him.

 

Broncos fell for it.

And it worked out beautifully for them. A top 5 pick. They could trade up, or they could trade back and get a slew of picks. Or they could stay put and get the #1 WR making their offense even more dangerous.

I wish we would have played them and we should have. They had like 5 turnovers and still barely lost. I had a bad vibe going into that SB vs the Saints. It seemed like the whole world was rooting for the Saints because of the Hurricane they had a couple years prior. Kate Couric and Obama were on CBS saying go Saints + I hated the fact that Peyton and Reggie are from the New Orleans as well. Something seemed fishy about that game from the get go and the way it ended looked phony but it is what it is.

This WR class is terrible. They’re going pass rusher or Cornerback

    • I almost spit my coffee out reading this a few times, lol!  I love sarcasm and I especially love it when there is some truth to it!  Well played Sir!
    • I guess the whole question is the merits of the report. You report on his diabetes with tons of guesses and speculations and WITHOUT taking the side of the person who's been affected here and who's living and dealing with that condition. You report on the player being uncoachable WITHOUT taking the opinion of his coaches about being coachable or not(and BTW from what I've heard both from Colts and Texas coaches, this is resoundingly NOT TRUE). You report about him being immature and honestly, everything I've seen on the surface suggests the opposite. You report about his combine performance by giving it a pretty harsh reading(the video is in this thread and the account of what happened by McGinn is in this thread... People can actually go and look at what happened and make their own mind about whether the characterization of that workout was fair or not. I will just say you can represent the player stumbling in a drill and going again in various different ways and McGinn chose a specific way to represent it. It was the most negative way you could choose).    You know I had my own reservations about that outburst by Ballard at the presser, but the more I'm learning about Mitchell the more I actually believe in what Ballard was saying and the less merit those reports have in my mind. Maybe I have my own unconscious biases too, now that I have vested interest in Mitchell actually being good for us. I don't know     I guess ultimately none of it matters. AD's success or failure won't depend on some pre-draft reports... it will depend on how he handles himself from now on, how hard he works, his drive to be great and our staff's ability to get the best of him. 
    • if he is healthy and they make the playoffs in spite of, say, Houston being the 1 or 2 seed in a loaded afc, you think Irsay would contemplate firing him? That would mean we took another step forward and AR proved he could stay healthy and play ball. I don’t see his seat being hot in that scenario at all. I see the organization being fired up with that and ready to hit the offseason hard to take the next step forward. 
    • Hmmm.   ”Healthy excuses will be hard to come by.”    Really?   Richardson, who had less than a thousand snaps in college, then had roughly 200 snaps his rookie year.  There’s one.   And Houston has Stroud who had a great rookie year.  Aren’t most media predicting Houston and JVille ahead of Indy this year?  That’s two without any trouble.     I just think insisting on a division title because a fan thinks it’s time doesn’t stand up to much scrutiny.   Sorry, just my two cents…. And often not worth that much.
