    Garrett has vastly improved his clap cadence. And that eagle eye he gives a player when he says "Don't worry about that fuckup, friend, that cost us the game - we'll get 'em next year." Clap clap.

    That's true. Garrett's clapping seems a bit more natural these days. Yay!

    Actually with Lebron they were playing like a team that would be a top 4/5 seed. Without him they are missing the playoffs. Why are you having so much trouble with this?

    Exactly. Saying they weren't a playoff team without Lebron is just not true. Would that trend have continued? Who knows. But at the time of his injury, they were a pretty solid team. No question about it. They are pretty bad without him.

    I think it's disingenuous to say the team isn't on more stable footing in 2018 than it was in 2008. The team is drafting better, the defense is much-improved, Stephen is more involved and Jerry is 10 years closer to death. If we sign ETIII, we might not lose a game in 2019.

    How many times have we kept hearing this? That our future is bright and we are better than *insert whatever year you want*. Until we actually see results on the field, doesn't mean shit. After we got smoked by the Vikings in 2009, our future was supposed to be looking up. Then we missed the playoffs 4 straight years. All of that was Garrett besides 2010 when Wade was fired. We are spinning in circles right now. With Garrett on this staff (starting 2007), we have never made the playoffs two seasons in a row. That is very concerning. People might point to 3 division titles in 5 years but at some point you have to make some type of playoff run. Not keep crapping out in the divisional round.

    Dak and Zeke are now in year 4 on cheap rookie deals and we have zero to show for it.

    Eagles and Rams were fucking junk when McVey and Pederson took over. They didn't need a 10 year process. They turned it around right away and both made the Super Bowl. Meanwhile, us Dallas fans take pride in saying we are better off than we were in the past? Meh.

  4. How is a discussion troll...just because you dont like it?

    We all say football is biggest team sport but you say brady is best hands down despite the help he receives from organization
    Biggest team sport yet if your QB isn't good, your team will suck. QB is the most important position in sports. You are talking in circles.

    Look at all the different personnel Brady has did this with over almost 2 decades of this run. Yeah, he's pretty damn great. Why couldn't Peyton Manning do this?? He had every opportunity and played in the same conference in a shit ass division like Brady.
  5. Meh...more like horrible defense by horrible defensive team

    Brady is great...yall dont need to hyperbolize(???) everything...sometimes its just the other team sucking (falcons,colts,jets,etc...)
    Yet Andrew Luck, who so many say is pretty damn good, looked like a high school qb against the Chiefs.

    And no, these WRs we're not wide open all the time. Quit making stuff up to demean this performance to be that guy.

    I'm off the edge a little bit. Maybe Kellen Moore really is a genius. He came from a pretty open offense at Boise. I also thought he was younger than 29, seems like he just came out of Boise. If this is where we're heading, Garrett damn well better let him open up the playbook and not overrule him with the same predictable crap over and over again. Dak's in his fourth year, the o-line should be better next year if Frederick returns, we have the rushing champ and a dynamic WR1. There is no reason we shouldn't have a prolific offense if Moore is allowed to open up the offense so we can pound it on the ground and sling it strategically like the Rams and Saints. 

    Not happening. This is Garrett's offense. His playbook and scheme. It's all him. He also knows this is now a make or break year for him. Which is maddening because he has been here this whole decade now and nothing has changed or progressed. 2 years in a row now in the NFC, second year head coaches are in the Super Bowl. Hell the fucking Jags were close to a Super Bowl last year. Yet we think Garrett is going to finally figure it out in year 9? Sure thing, Jerry. But anyways, if he's going down, it's going to be on his terms, not Moore's. Don't expect anything different on offense. Same predictable crap. It is what it is. I remember in the offseason how they told us how different this offense would be.

    What I've found amazing is that every time using or extending instant replay is proposed in MLB or the NFL or wherever, you'll have a horde of people who show up railing against instant replay because "it will take the human element out of the game." 

    I want to know where these people are now and if they're happy that "the human element" fucked the Saints?

    I am. Fuck the Saints and their franchise and fanbase. They put a cash bounty on Favre in 2009. 

    Any misery to that fanbase and team is hilarious. Had 2 chances to put the game away after this call. Didn't. Benefitted from a no call on Goff the drive before.

    But now it's whining and crying about refs from them and it's absolutely hilarious.

    montana is still on there.  yeah, brady has more rings, but 1) brady has never thrown a touchdown in the first quarter of a super bowl; 2) brady has never blown anyone out in a superbowl, let alone a hall of famer. 

    That is some weird arbitrary criteria to put someone in over another. Super Bowls are close these days. In fact this century, most of them have been close. You aren't going to just go in there and blow people out. Not really how the Super Bowl is these days.

    Yep. Dude is a machine. 41 and killing it. People will still throw out Montana (for good reason), but Brady is the 🐐

    The only memories I have of Montana is with the Chiefs. All I know is all the highlights. Can someone explain to me why there are still so many who will defer to Montana as the best in front of Brady? Genuine question. Highlights don't do a player justice for their career.

    Having slept on it, I still have no doubt the fucking fix was in. 

    So the refs caused the Saints to botch the game from the beginning and then after the missed call? Was it a bad call? Sure. But this shit happens all the time in sports. Refs do not want to call these in those situations. Happens all the time. Refs swallow their whistles in basketball when it gets to nut cutting time.

    Refs missed a blatant facemask on Goff the drive before that would have given the Rams 1st and goal at the 1. Punch it in and it's a 4pt lead. Instead they settled for 3.

    There was no fix. Saints no calls against them the first 3 quarters. That game should have been put away early. They didn't.

    Are you daft? Again, if the PI is called, the Saints keep the ball, run the clock down to a few seconds, and kick the go-ahead FG. There wouldn't have BEEN "a lot of football played" after that. 

    So yes, let's ignore them blowing a 13pt lead, calling a bone headed 1st down pass that was incomplete when all you had to do was run the ball 3 times, kick the FG and leave the Rams less than 40 seconds. Defense blowing it at the end. Then the OT interception. Boo hoo, bad calls happen. Go out there and make it not matter. They had the chance to do that not once but twice.

    How about the refs missing the blatant facemask on Goff the drive before that would have given them 1st and goal from the 2? Rams would have punched it in for a TD and been up 4. Causing the Saints to need a TD on the final drive to win it. That was a terrible missed call that caused the Rams to settle for the tie.

    Saints had every opportunity to put that game away well before the call. They had 2 opportunities to make that missed call something no one would even remember. But they didn't and now their whiny fanbase is crying rigged. And it's funny as hell.

  12. I'm probably the biggest Brady homer on this board but he said in his Monday call on WEEI this morning that he was unaware of the flag.  At least he was an honest.   
    They didn't show the graphic for the flag until the KC player picked it off. I had no idea either

    This game had a late dpi no call as well. Not as egregious but still obvious. Nobody cared because 1) cowboys haters are still in abundance despite 25 years of mediocrity, and 2) the rams were the much better team despite what the scoreboard showed. 

    But Dallas had a chance to steal that game and that no-call really hampered that effort. 

    Saints took a 3pt lead after that call. Then got the ball in OT. Failed both times.

    Saints misery is funny as fuck. Fuck them and New Orleans.

    And you still can't remove the galactically bad blown call. It pretty much ended the game 

    How?? There was a lot of football played after that game.

    It's the same concept of the Dez catch/no catch in 2014. That call did not lose us the game. Tons of shit beforehand cost us the game. And the Packers converted 3 or 4 third downs after that call.

    Saints blew this game themselves. Hell they had a lead right after that call.

    The right team won the game.

    Comes back to identifying talent and then coaching it. Also, one great offensive linemen and four guys named Irv doesn't do you much good. Pats don't have a weak link on their line, and apparently have enough good players to sub when a starter goes out. 

    Right I get that. But do those use 1st round picks on most of their guys? Dallas has 3 first rounders and the other 2 are 2nd rounders. Well this year they had more of a mash unit but I am talking their normal starting 5.
