Since JS wont post it, here are the Week 8 Pretenders

Since JS wont post it... because his Bucs lost again I thought i would be nice enough to help him out. He is currently too busy making up excuses like " The Bucs play all the tough teams", and "The Bucs have too many injuries", to come up with the list.

1. The Bucs - Once again the Offense cant put points on the board... and against the 1-5 49ers?? Oh and look at the huge stats put up by the 49ers, a whopping 50 yards passing, 9 first downs, and 2-16 on 3rd down. But wait, the 49ers get 5 sacks?? LMAO And the huge Tamba Bay running attack was good for 43 yards. Just wait till they play a playoff team. PRETENDERS!!!

2. The Redskins - Did anyone tell them they had a game on Sunday?


Thats it for this week. IF the Bucs win next week then JS will post. IF they lose, he will still be in the closet telling himself over and over "we have one ring, we have one ring".

    There's no way the Eagles win all 3....now *that's* a guarantee!
  • Vikings can still be alive with a couple wins in conference, johnson didn't look horrible against a top 5 defense. Sucks too because vikings were actually playing well against panthers till culpepper went down. Was 7-0 with vikings driving in redzone. Hopefully DC can get back healthy for next year, never like to see a guy go down, Raiders are still alive. Jordan is starting to get the ball.

    Ill add these:

    Chris Simms...couldn't do ANYTHING and if he had done less and not turned the ball over 3 times, we would of won!
    Offensive Line....AWFUL, these guys are former #1 picks and vets, this is inexcusable.

    You can't run the ball, when the O line letting guys in the backfield. What a wasted game where our defense dominated! Didn't let
    the Niners in the red zone until the 4th quarter...and that was off a Simms turnover!

    We sucked big time,....but I ask you this..

    how good is your team with their second string QB??? Does Kliff Kingsbury lead the Patsies to the playoff??? We already saw how
    good Pitt is without Ben.....Sorgi leading the Colts????

    We will be back to dominate the NFC South!

    Hmm Pittsburgh went 15-1 with their backup QB last year.

    Brady was a backup who came in for Bledsoe and took his team all the way.

    Your backup QB copout is a ridiculous one...Simms should be shown the door....he's had 2+ years to get ready, to get the offense down, and he looked completely baffled out there against the *49ers*.

  • JS, How good are the Pats with their backup QB? Doesnt matter. How good would the Bucs be with their defense hurt like the Pats? Pats have 8 starters (or could be starters and backups) injured. Also.. the Pats backup is Flutie.

    But.. why even talk poorly about Simms? He didnt do anything different than Griese has done. Griese 7 TD, 7 INT, Simms 1 TD, 2 INT. The Bucs have no offense, and that is their main problem. You cant get by all season scoring 1 td a game.
  • kuhlmannkuhlmann Posts: 3,326 ✭✭
    How about that drew bledsoe pickup? over 2,000 yards passing 13 td's 6 int. 97.4 rating to lead the nfc!! mcslob who?

    now 2 running backs in dallas that cant be stopped! begin our march to the superbowl! giants fans we beat you so you are not the team to beat!!
  • If the Texans sweep...they make wildcard.

    Wow - Stalin actually sounded like a human being in his last post. He must of just came back from the woodshed - LOL.

    He is right of course about 2nd string quarterbacks. Other than the Kurt Warner thing in St. Louis some seasons back, and a few other exceptions such as Jeff Hostetler, losing your 1st string quarterback is death for Super Bowl hopes. Frankly, I think the Eagles 2nd and 3rd string quarterbacks border on pathetic and if McNabb goes down, it would be huge trouble. Koy Detmer in the pre-season looked like he couldn't even play - he's only stays the #2 because he is the long-snap holder, and McMahon the #3 is prone to throwing interceptions - McMahon is not a #1 in the NFL.

    Euphoria...you have to have a defense before you can miss them, please dont ever compare the bucs d to the patsies d. One is domination
    and the other is just average! Im talking about taking out key components like QB and guys like Simeon Rice or D Brooks, guys that
    will really be missed.....not a bunch of chump "starters" with the patsies crappy defense

    Im sorry in what Super Bowl win did you all shut down the other team??? LOL

    While we only need score 14 points to win a game, you all need 34! Again, without Brady you all are and 8-8 team!

    actually this year, with Brady you all might be an 8-8 team! Check Griese's stats....5-1 buddy, better than Brady, better than McNabb and
    better than Bledsoe..the guy knows how to win..he was getting it done before Zach dumb*hit took him out with a cheap shot.

    Ill take 7 TD's and 7 picks if you are putting up wins! He did it last year and he was doing it this year!

  • I hope the Eagles realize what an insult it is to be an underdog to a team that just lost 36-0. If that isn't enough of a kick in the a$$ to get these guys playing Eagle football, I don't know what would be.
  • There is little Joey again...lol

    So if the Bucs d has been so dominate, how come they havent made the playoffs since they got their ONE ring? Lets see.. who was on top of the league last year in take aways? Right the Pats. Turnovers win or lose games for you. And they were the kings of it last year. This year their secondary has been taken out by injuries, even their 3 runningbacks are hurt. But you wouldnt know that since all you know is about the Bucs. Also... the bunch of "chump" starters for the Pats, have more rings than the Bucs "superior" defense. IF the Bucs were so much better, wouldnt they have a couple more rings? Or even make the playoffs?

    Superbowl.... all that matters is rings. whether you win by 3 or 30 points, the rest dont matter... except to a bitter person like yourself.

    You only need 14 points to win a game?? Naw, you mean thats all you can score on poor defenses. You couldnt even do that against the 49ers and the Jets. You come off a bye week and lose to the 49ers??? BWAHAHAHAHA

    And you keep that 5-1 record of Grieses in your mind... since he managed to beat teams that wont make the playoffs, and now you actually have to play playoff caliber teams... you can always say that Grieses record was 5-1 even though in the end, the Bucs STILL will be watching the playoffs.

    Joe the more you post, the more ridiculous you sound (and you sound pretty ridiculous already).

    I've recounted 2 teams in recent history who have had fantastic seasons after their starting QB went down...and you discount that entirely. You say the Bucs only need 14 points to win a game? So what about the 15 points the 49ers scored?

    You, sir, need to rethink your pathetic attempts at sports discussion.

    I watch now and i believe TO is right in a way! with out him! Mcnabb has no where to go? running back cant run and he had his 17 or more carries tonit! 17 for like 24 and caught 4 or 5 for 55. wake up not a running back! emmitt smith was a running back! westbrook is a swing 3rd down back! maybe eagles pick up a train? boys cut him.. he can still take 10 carries up feild for 40-50 yards? wouldnt want him to help westbrook out?

    change my mind on mcnabb he gives it his all but you can see with out TO he just playing and winging that ball like farve is this year!

    see you guys monday night if there is no TO look for the cowboys to roll by 3 td's!

    Why did the Eagles give Westbrook that 5 year extension? Does anyone else think it was an intense overreaction to show TO up?

    Westbrook will be laughing all the way to the bank, while the Eagles front offices continues to bungle move after move.
  • 1420sports1420sports Posts: 3,473 ✭✭✭
    Axtell, it amazes me how much you jump on teams/players when they are down. Shows me something about you ... you get on Stalin about his praises of the Bucanneers, which shows he is a fan (albeit one with slight blinders), and it is the same thing for Skippy and even Gemmy. Your post count in a little over a year is truly remarkable ... I would guess that 75% of them are blasting something.

    EVERYTHING out of your mouth is basically negative, or ripping someone else's belief. Are you that way all the time? Good smack is one thing, but your posts are not smack talk - they are just berations.

    How did the Eagles "bungle" another move? What was the first one they bungled? And do us all a favor, don't say TO ....

    The Eagles are one of the most winningest franchises in the past five seasons and at 4-4 have a nice shot of another winning season and playoff berth. They are in a funk, and have yet to find a way to fix it. Past history says they will.

    cardcore - no worries, I told you to save the post image

    Why did the Eagles give Westbrook that 5 year extension? Does anyone else think it was an intense overreaction to show TO up?

    because Westbrook is an OUTSTANDING weapon who can run and catch.

    No, because the Eagles and Westbrook have been working on this for weeks and it was almost done last week - prior to TO's latest. By getting this in now (today), the Eagles will absorb most of the signing bonus for this season's cap.
