Die Hard Football Fans and their Teams!!!!!

[yellocharge68]

I noticed there was a Dolphins and a Seahawks post on here and I just had to chip in my two cents.   I am a long time Dallas Cowboys fan.....nearly since birth.   I am really excited about tonight's tilt with the wounded Eagles.   I hope Dallas is able to pound them like they did earlier...if so this could be another banner year for the 'Boys!!!!!     I think ya gotta win the games your talented enough to win and   take care of business with the weaker teams.   I also know thatthe Seahawks are really likely to be the top seed in the NFC I just want Dallas to get a little more payback and respect from the Philly folks!!!!   Go0000000           C O W B O Y S!!!!!!!

As a Patriots fan, let me just say this.

NO team will ever win a damn thing with Drew Bledsoe as their QB.

Not now, not ever, never.

[yellocharge68]

O K, I havent annoited the Cowboys as world champs yet, but can you say Quincy Carter??//  Bledsoe is not being asked to win it with his arm or scrambles...we have a Stellar young Defense and a balanced time consuming Offense.  I know that I wasnt really happy at first that Bledsoe came here, but I gave him a chance.  I really think he can deliver if he remains in the Offense we have.  That why they play the game.... there will be no Staubach or Aikman in the Boys future for several years. May as well load up and take a shot, Get whe n the Gettin' is good!!!!!!!

[ChargerRob]

How about them Cowboys! 

[69bananabeast]

been a Boy's fan all my life .  20 years and stuck with them thick and thin . I remember the first game I went to as a kid in the AlamoDome and they beat the  Houston Oilers . 

[472 R/T SE]

I hope the Eagles win and continue to win this season to show they never needed #81.

That's what im talking about Roy Williams with the pic 40+ yards to the house

[yellocharge68]

How Bout Them Boys!!!!!!!  I only wish that Owens was there so he could cross over the middle of the field and let ROY "The Hit man" Williams shut that big, loud mouth once and for all!!!!!!


Go Cowboys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Dans 68]

...so this is probably not a good time to state I'm a 49'ers fan, right...?

Dolphins fan here. Been a fan since before Marino was there. I wasn't alive in the early 70's to cheer for them then, but I stick to my teams. I'm also a die hard Mariners fan as well. That was definately rough as a kid. Seeing how they lost nearly 100 gaves every year until I was in high school.

[dodgeboy67]

go panthers

and t.o. can suck it....what a jackass

[yellocharge68]

Dodgeboy  said it best about T.Owens.....LOSER THAT HE IS!!!

I remeber being somewhat conflicted as a kid when the Dolphins played the Cowboys in Super Bowl six. I was a big larry CSonka fan and still admire Bob Griese...But I gotta say  its good to see my Cowboys come out on top of Philadelphia......

Look out Lions...the Cowboys are back!!!!!

[RT DAVE]

As a Patriots fan, let me just say this.

NO team will ever win a damn thing with Drew Bledsoe as their QB.

Not now, not ever, never.

If the Ravens won with Dilfer, they could have won with anyone..  

Go PACK in '06! 

[Spartan]

Cowboys worried about the lions? come on, I'm a die-hard Lions fan and we all know here they stink .  Thing is with our beloved Lions, just when you think its time to throw dirt on them, they win one.

...looks like I am the only bills fan on the site...

...looks like I am the only bills fan on the site...

Well your team just reaffirmed what I think of mine.  And that is my Chefs aren't going anywhere this year.  No consistency and their O-line's playing like a pop warner team.  I can't even stand to watch them anymore, I get so frustrated.  Finally we have the resemblance of what a defense should look like, and now the offense is not scoring.  Priest going on the IR put their season on the IR as well.

[Afflyer]

Damn 'rite I'M A COLTS FAN!!!

[69bananabeast]

Colts vs Cowboys   Now that'd be a Game

[472 R/T SE]

If the Colts keep playing well with their new found defense, I have a hard time thinking anyone will beat them.  They won't go undefeated, but after watching them soundly beat the Patriots, they're the team,IMO. 
The Texans gave the Colts a run for their money,so I have a terrible feeling my Chefs will lose a squeeker this weekend.   It depends which team shows up.

[TheGhost]

Heartbreaking loss for us Fins fans on Sunday.

[69bananabeast]

Why did everyone make such a big deal of the Colts & Pats game . the Pats arent even that great this year. There's plenty of teams that have the same if not better record than them

[nh_mopar_fan]

Why did everyone make such a big deal of the Colts & Pats game . the Pats arent even that great this year. There's plenty of teams that have the same if not better record than them

Couple reasons.

1. The Pats have owned Manning. He was 0-7 against them in NE.
2. It was a match-up of the best 2 QB's in the league.

The Pats have been decimated by injuries this year. They've lost 6 starters in their defensive backfield for the year and this week they lose their starting center. Dillon hasn't played for the past 2 weeks either. Combine that with the fact that the NFL schedule makers really tucked it to them because they really need someone else to win and it makes for a division title this year (the NFL East is terrible) and not much else.

Indy really has fixed what has been their weak point, the defense. That's the difference this year. I still want to see Manning succeed in December outside in PITT or NE. He's been terrible late in the year when he hasn't been playing in the girlyman dome.

The Patriots have shown year after year their resiliency with starters dropping like flies.  Remember Troy B. playing defense last year?  People were watching this game to see how the Pats. handled their latest loss of personel and they haven't responded as well as they have in the past.
Records have nothing to do with it,IMO>

[ron73440]

GO STEELERS! I grew up outside Pittsburgh, I've always thought Cowher was one of the NFLs' best coaches, plus I love their style. Even if I wasnt from there they'd probably be my favorite team. Just hopin Big Ben gets healthy soon.

[alenglish]

Cowboys  and the Buffalo Bills..........   GO BILLS                     Big Al

[69_500]

At least I'm seeing true fans on here. Instead of  the typical fair weather fans that you run into around town. I love it when people stick by their teams when they aren't having a great year, that is a fan.

Damn right!  I've been a Fins fan since I started following NFL.  Not a hardcore, able-to-name-the-entire-team-from-memory type fan, but I still cheer for them every Sunday, regardless of how bad we are doing.

It is nice having hockey back.  Since it looks like the Lions will be watching the playoffs on TV again this year, we got hockey to get us thru the cold months.  It sucked not having hockey last year.

Don't be so hard on the Dolphins this year. I said at the begining of the year that I thought they would be 7-9. I really think they have a shot at 8-8 depending on how much they run the ball instead of trying to pass. If they just give Ronnie Brown and Rickey Williams each about 15 carries a game, they will be chewing up the yardage and the clock. I think they could both end up with over 1,000 yards for the season as well.

[dodgeboy67]

actually the fins are playing pretty decent this year.....there record dosent say"super bowl" but they had to start building somewhere.....they shouldve beaten the pats

as for the pats, they are about as inconsistent as it gets......the colts beating them was great for peytons morale, but id like to see them do it with all of the banged up pats playing there best game......then lets talk about if the colts are better than the pats....

since i live in indy , its great to be part of a city that bleeds blue for the colts/and pacers too for that matter,but iwas a panther fan long before i moved to indy

who knows ...if the pathers start playing a lil more consistent, the two teams might just meet in detroit

It's great to be wrong every once in a while.

Dear God, we got shut out by the BROWNS!  I think I'm gonna go cry in a dark corner now....

[69_500]

The Dolphins looked horrible this week. The only thing I kept seeing was how their running backs are getting good yardage, but as soon as they get down by more than 1 score it seems that Nick Saban is all to hasty to abandon the run game. Its only a 2 possesion game at half time, Yet in the second half they come out throwing the ball like they are down by 24.
Same thing the two weeks prior to that, down by a score against Atlanta, 1st and goal from the 5, and why don't you run the ball with Williams or Brown? both averaging 5+ yards a carry for the game, but you don't give them a shot you throw the ball and it is picked off. Same scenario against new england, 1st and goal at the 5, 4 straight pass plays. NO RUN ATTEMPTS AT ALL.

I think I did 

[472 R/T SE]

What happened to the fins defense anyways?  All we took was Knight and Surtain, both of whom the fans booed when the Chefs were there a month back.  I really like Knight, he's brought a lot of experience to our backfield.  You never hear Surtain's name or see any of his plays, must be because no one ever throws to that side? 

The Chefs are turning more into a defensive team, they're younger, last year's draft of defensive rookie DJ, Grigsby and the free agent pickups.  Sans Kendrell Bell, what a waste.

[Recharger]

speaking of defense...
                         GO BEARS!!

[69_500]

Not sure what happened to the Dolphins Defense on Sunday. They were nonexistent on the first play from scrimmage. A 75 yard touchdown run where the RB actually stopped on the sideline, and then took off again. There defense has given up a lot of point on the first possessions of games this season. For some reason against some teams they play great until late in the 4th quarter too.

Inconsistancy...the mark of a bad team.  Loathe as I am to admit it, the Dolphins simply lack the personnel they need to really run the new system Saban has installed.  It is going to take a few years for them to regain their winning ways, and it has to start with a real QB this offseason.  If Saban's drafts go well and the team gets younger with a little more talent, watch out, because the Dolphins could become the next NE Patriots.

[69_500]

They have needed a quarter back since Marino left. Sticking with Fielder for all those years was a dead end move. Then they go out and sign Griese only to stick him as a back up to a less talented Fielder.

The only problem with them that I've seen in off season moves over the past few years is allowing talented secondary players to leave and not  trying to get quality players to replace them. That and the fact that in the past 5 years there have been plenty of available quality QB's that they could have at least made an offer to. They passed on Drew Bledsoe 2 times in that spand of time, as well as Kurt Warner. Granted neither would be a long term solution, but both are productive and could have had the Dolphins winning more games than they have over the past 2 seasons.
