:rolleyes:

Every team has been shutting down Moss ever since the Eagles game, yet Brady continued to do well. Stallworth as good as he may be is truely meaningless to that offense. They perform well without him.

I hate Tom Brady, I hate Bellicheck(sp?) and I hate the Patriots but there is no hiding the fact that Tom Brady is one of the best ever. He won all 3 of his Super Bowl rings without a Randy Moss, and had a nearly undefeated season without him, going 14-2 and going on to win the Super Bowl. Over a 2 season period he won 20 something games which has never been done before.

I hate him and the team for stealing the Super Bowl away from my team, but I can't deny that I think he is the best in the league right now.

Brady is not overrated, he's still a great Quarterback as much as I hate him..

He and Moss both set NFL records this year, so i'm not really sure what daw_win is talking about when Randy moss was shut down all year,.. still a great game to watch. The Giants 4 D-lineman played an excellent game and got in Brady's face all game long, and when you can't perform under that pressure and get a rythm going, nobody really has a shot to win the game.

Oh well, on to the next season. The Scouting Combine is on the 28th this month. :)

!King_Amazon! 2008-02-04 07:23 AM

I came in here to say that I'm sick of everyone praising Tom Brady and they need to remove their lips from his cock. He might be good but most people are just hopping on the bandwagon.

Thanatos 2008-02-04 08:01 AM

Oh my GOD such a great game. There were 16 people at my buddy's house and we were going absolutely nuts. It was awesome. When Manning shrugged off those 2 dudes, ran back, and bombed it downfield and the dude caught it with his fuckin helmet, the apartment exploded. We had one Patriot fan there, the rest being Giant fans or just ex-Pats fans, we were giving him so much shit. He shut off the TV on that 4th and 20 and ran out of the apartment. lol the bastard.

Anyway, the Giants defense put on a HELL of a performance. Gotta love seeing Brady getting sacked on his ass. Makes ya feel all warm inside.

Manning family = best QB family ever? Probably..

Titusfied 2008-02-04 09:22 AM

Ugh, don't give him that much credit. Granted, he played well in the last 5 minutes of the game, which is definitely the most important, but the Giants defense played one of the most solid fucking games I've ever seen, especially against the potent Patriot offense. The defense won the game for the Giants. Eli did play well though, gotta give him that....

I don't know why everyone thinks this was such an awesome game though. I mean, the last 5 minutes of the 4th quarter were by far the best of any game or Super Bowl I've ever seen, but for the first 3 quarters, the defensive dominance made for quite the boring game. If I was a fan of one of the teams, I would've been going insane with discomfort and anxiety, but as a football fan wanting to watch a good game, it didn't deliver. I was bored for most of the game, then it got fantastic.

I said since the Eagles game teams have been shutting Randy Moss down, not all season. In week 11 against the Bills (game before Philly) Moss had 4 touchdowns with 128 yards. Against the Eagles he had only 43 yards and 0 touchdowns. Against the horrible Baltimore Ravens, Moss had just 34 yards and one touchdown. The list goes on including only a single post season touchdown which happened during the Super Bowl.

HandOfHeaven 2008-02-04 09:37 AM

I was expecting more of a high scoring close game. Tom Brady hesitated too much, although the Giants defensive line greatly added to that. I bet Moss was extremely pissed at all of those overthrows.

Eli can seriously go suck a fuck. He's not that good, so don't start sticking your face up his ass like he's a king or something.


Dar_Win, you have to take into account that Moss is almost always in double or triple coverage. Most of the Pats offense shifted toward him being a decoy, which in turn opened some plays up. Giants still did a good job though.

Demosthenes 2008-02-04 10:36 AM

***sarcasm follows*** Who the fuck changed the name to my goddamn fucking thread? Goddamn it fucking assholes leave my fucking thread alone?

WetWired 2008-02-04 10:42 AM

Actually, two threads were merged. This isn't the thread you started.

Lenny 2008-02-04 11:39 AM

I'm not even going to bother discussing the game as, surprise surprise, I didn't watch a single minute of it! Shock horror! I am going to say that quite a few people have told me that Tom Petty was very good during the half-time show and that I ought to find it on Youtube.

Instead of discussing the game, I shall post a link to a piece of history on Amazon:

EDIT: Ha, they took that down quickly.

For those that didn't get to see it, the page was for a book about the New England Patriots - 19-0: Historic Championship, England's Unbeatable.

Not so much.

Anyway, I thought the game was great. I prefer seeing excellent defensive performances to outrageous offensive plays. That's just me, I guess.

Hah, we can tell you're a Pittsburgh fan... I'm the same way though, with the Jags :) When you have no offense you garner this great respect for Defensive shutdowns, though it hasn't been that way this year.

Thanatos 2008-02-05 07:40 AM

On a slightly related note, Tom Brady and Randy Moss have decided to sit out of the Pro-Bowl game. Apparently, they have too much sand in their vaginas.

D3V 2008-02-05 09:07 AM

Yeah i've heard the same thing. What a bunch of shitheads, I now even hate the Patriots more and am glad they lost the game, even more-so I thought it was funny after Belicheck shook Coughlin's hand and then left, even though the game wasn't officially over. Pretty shitty.

Thanatos 2008-02-05 10:15 AM

That pretty much sums up the Patriots and their classy coach.

gruesomeBODY 2008-02-05 10:52 AM

Im not going to go into any detail about the game, probably because i was scared shitless. But my Giants won and im really so proud of them. I hope all of you remember when they decided to stand up to the Pats in week 17, when all media and sports officials cautioned them not too. It goes to show that when a team has heart and the desire to win, anything is possible. We might not have been the better team all season, but were the best team that day. Like i have been saying to all my pats friends, including JR, 18-1 is not better than 14-6 this year.

Thanatos 2008-02-06 07:02 AM

Amen brotha! Before I went to work Monday morning, I left a note on my neighbor's door (he's a HUGE Pats fan) that said "18-1. It doesn't mean shit."

HandOfHeaven 2008-02-06 09:26 AM

Colts fail. Kthxdie!

Thanatos 2008-02-06 09:40 AM

What's your point? To act like a idiotic moron? Well done!

osmoses-jones 2008-02-06 03:11 PM

I respect colts more then patriot because they are not arrogant then damn patriot players.

slaynish 2008-02-06 05:10 PM

Game was garbage until the last 5 minutes.

I had call of duty 4 on one tv and the game on the other and i was more interested in COD than the game.(until the last 5 minutes of course)

However, that shit eli did shaking those two guys.. Christ. That was insane.

WetWired 2008-02-06 06:40 PM

The game was great. I intended to watch it off and on but ended up watching the whole game from about half way through the first quarter.

D3V 2008-02-07 07:04 AM

That move Eli pulled was similar to David Garrard's 34 yard run busting it up on 4th down to esentially win the Jaguars the first round of the playoffs.

Atleast, it was as pheonomenal

Thanatos 2008-02-07 07:33 AM

Eli's scramble > anything David Garrard has ever done.

D3V 2008-02-07 07:53 AM

Rofl dude, no way. That scramble was excellent, but David's scramble was just as good, they were basically the same situation except David took off and broke their lb's ankles.

Thanatos 2008-02-07 08:05 AM

This was played in the Superbowl with under 2:00 remaining on a drive that costs you the Lombardi trophy, I think Eli's play was much more significant.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=PiXQqxcWR8k - Eli's play

http://youtube.com/watch?v=O-ujIWjiISU&feature=related - Garrard's play

Garrard juked one guy. That's it.. how is that play better in any way, shape, or form? Quit being such a homer.

D3V 2008-02-07 08:40 AM

If it wasn't in the superbowl, you could call the plays equal. Garrard's run was with like 2:26 left in the game, and the Steelers we're still leading at this point in the game. I mean look at it, Eli had one guy tug on his jersey while he was getting blocked, and slipped out of it and threw the ball, I think the catch was actually greater than anything Eli really did, you're the one in fact being a homer with the fact that his redneck forrest-gump talkin' brother is on your team.

Thanatos 2008-02-07 08:45 AM

Umm, no I am not being a homer. Peyton plays for Indy. Eli plays for New York. Before this season I thought Eli was a bust; I've never really liked him.

I'm talking about the play as a whole. The fact that he broke THREE sacks, ran back, launched the ball, and dude somehow managed to catch it with his helmet... that is WAY better than watching a QB run 30 yards for a first down while he only breaks one guy's ankles in the process. It doesn't even come close.

D3V 2008-02-07 10:10 AM

QBs slip tackles all day long, even better the throw was short and off, it's just miraculous that the WR was able to come up with the ball, the heat of the moment made it justified to call it a great play. The same situation was during the Jaguars game, it was 4th and (6th i think) and David busted around and busted it loose, put us into field goal range which was all we needed, and Freddy eventually got into the end zone. I just don't see how you can write that off.

Thanatos 2008-02-07 10:17 AM

Because shit like that happens all the time whereas Manning/Tyree's spectacular play happen once in a season, if not longer. Bah, there's no reasoning with you. Any time a team has done something good, Jacksonville has done it better.

D3V 2008-02-07 10:37 AM

Lol numbnuts I never said it was better, I just said I don't understand why you we're writing it off. WRs make spectacular catches all day long, QBs break tackles and loft the ball down the field every game, what makes both playes good was the fact it was at crunch time when both teams absolutely needed a break. Shit, Garrard played pretty badly for a good majority of the game, and they still pulled it out. I'm just trying to reason with you that that play shouldn't be written off.

Thanatos 2008-02-07 10:41 AM

I'm not writing it off it's just pretty obvious (to me at least, I'm not jaded behind illusions that the Jaguars are the best team ever) that Eli/Tyree's play > Garrard's play. Who cares if it was good, it does not stack up with that highlight.

Titusfied 2008-02-07 11:11 AM

No doubt about it, Garrard's play doesn't have SHIT on Eli/Tyree's play. Not even close. Not only was the stage about 10 times bigger, there was much less time on the clock, much more at stake, and a whole lot of pressure being applied.

I was watching the Jax/Pitt game with my friends, and we all thought Garrard's play was awesome, but with the same group of guys, after that Eli/Tyree play, we all literally looked at each other and as a consensus agreed that was probably one of the most awesome plays we've ever seen.

Oh, and ESPN has unofficially declared it the greatest Super Bowl play EVER. Yes, ever.

Eli/Tyree FTW.

kthxbye.

D3V 2008-02-07 11:31 AM

Okay, now see you changed it up. But anyways, still it's an okay play. The circumstances are what make it great.

Bleh, on to another year of football.
