It's also Saints fan logic that all of our backups are much better than our starters. Whenever a starter makes a bad play, you will see numerous fans say something along the lines of "that wouldn't have happened if (name of backup) was in the game" You do know that's every team, for every sport, ever in the history of always? Nope

How is Jared Cook an improvement over Delanie Walker? They had similar seasons. The only plus for Cook is his size.
Julio? Well, they did give up a buttload for him. I wouldn't be so quick to call him injury prone, but he missed 3 games 2011 and most of last season. So the wisdom of all that remains to be seen. With Gonzo retiring and S-Jax not getting any younger, they are in catch-up mode right now, at least at those 2 positions. Perhaps it's a bit of a blessing they had a horrible season in terms of draft picks.
My team? This will anger the jealous, but I don't think I've heard a single assinine thing said about the Broncos. They lost Dumervil due to some freak miscommunication accident, fine. The were without Von Miller for the 1st 6 weeks and the last 2 of the reg season. Champ Bailey, yes old, but he was out most of the year. There were various injuries to MLB Woodyard, Ryan Clady, Rahim Moore, Derek Wolfe, all starters (?). So there ain't much to point any fingers at considering where they are.
Eagles...between Reid and Castillo, there was once much to bitch about. But haven't heard many complaints this year. They changed for the better this year, Vick proved to be no loss, and to a lesser extent, neither was Maclin.

I hear a stupid Charger fan (who shall remain nameless) say The Chargers will win the super bowl, says it every year. *not signing my name so he won't know who posted this if he sees it. I don't want to be put in my cage*

I've heard ppl say Broncos will go 16-0... I don't get it. Like this past year? Like before week 7 or so? And what was so ridiculous. Mind you tour Pats win shouldn't have even happened. A FG in OT after a horrid miscommunication of indecision by Welker of all people. I hear a stupid Charger fan (who shall remain nameless) say The Chargers will win the super bowl, says it every year. *not signing my name so he won't know who posted this if he sees it. I don't want to be put in my cage* You get in that cage right now or no nanas for a month. I have your owner's #, ya know. But you're right, he'd never figured it out for himself that it was you.

*sigh* Well let's see.. Fans saying fire Mike Tomlin, Dick LeBeau, Todd Haley (yes it's stupid to say that), and Kevin Colbert. Fans who would rather have Cowher over Tomlin- Get over your selves.. Cowher had trouble with being to conservative in the playoffs. Fans saying they should trade Roethlisberger- Looool, yeah ok.. Fans who are not happy unless the Steelers use a fullback, 235+ pound RBs, and run the ball 25+ times a game and have over 280 carries. Fans who think they should draft a nose tackle every season. Fans who are William Gay bashers. Fans who want Mike Wallace back. (Miami can you take those off our hands too?) Fans who think small linebackers can play safety or vice versa, outside linebackers can play inside, and defensive linemen positions are interchangeable. They seem to think positions are inter changeable. They absolutely hate any form of touch down celebrations, and can be too "old school." cityofchamps what else am I missing?

I was banned from the buffalobills.com message boards a while back because the mods there are fucking retarded. They're all online friends who pick favorites and if they don't like you, they simply fuck with you and give you "infractions," and if you build up enough infractions, you get permanently banned. I would go to make a post after a Bills loss, with a thread like, "Gailey needs to be more accountable for these losses!," and about 20 minutes later, when I'd log on, I'd have a personal message waiting for me from a mod saying, "You have banned for a week for calling out a member of the Bills coaching staff. If you continue with this type of behavior, we will permanently ban you." What fucking killed me is that in the meantime, there would be 10 threads about Chan Gailey from other posters who the mods liked. It was all bullshit. I wasn't at all unhappy to finally be banned permanently. They're all a bunch of wristslitter doomsayers anwyays. You think I'm "doom and gloom?" Head on over to the buffalobills.com message boards, funny shit. I do every once in a while just for shits and giggles, it cracks me up.
I think some of the most recent stuff I've read on there:
"WE SHOUL'DVE HIRED PETTINE AS OUR HC LAST YEAR, AND NOW HE'S GONE OFF TO CLEVELAND, AND WE'RE STUCK WITH MARRONE!" "ALL IN FOR CUTLER IN 2014!" (Though the Bills already invested a 1st round pick in EJ Manuel, and has made it abundantly clear they're sticking with him for the long haul, and at the time I read this statement, there was nothing to indicate the Bears WOULDN'T give Cutler a long term deal...and it was funny the way the poster made the thread as if they actually had any power over actually swaying Bills management to make a bid for Cutler's services) "WE LOVE YOU SCOTTY!" (After Scott Norwood missed the last second field goal in Superbowl XXV, snatching a victory from the jaws of defeat, the Bills came home and had a rally in downtown Buffalo. Over 20,000 people were in attendance. A lot of the Bills players spoke, including Scott Norwood, who was in tears because he missed the field goal. Ironically, he got the loudest pop, and the crowd was chanting "WE LOVE YOU SCOTTY!"...I was pissed. This was the only Superbowl out of all the 4 that the Bills lost that the Bills had the best chance of winning. The one against the Redskins, the Bills committed too many turnovers, and the two against the Cowboys, the Bills were simply outmatched and got blown out. This one against the Giants, the Bills played heroically, and the game came down a very makeable last second field goal that the idiot kicker missed. I didn't forgive or love Scotty. Fuck Scott Norwood.) "T.O.! T.O.!" (When T.O. was cut by the Cowboys and signed by the Bills, Bills fans got a hold of T.O.'s travel itinerary and met him at Buffalo International Airport and mobbed him when he arrived, and treated him like the Beatles when they first arrived from England. I was embarrassed for our fanbase. You'd think we'd never seen a high profile celebrity before. The rapper DMX was arrested in my county in 2001, I can't remember if it was a DUI or something, but a bunch of my idiot pothead friends at the time were up in the middle of the night and were so excited to go wait outside the county jail to see him get released so they could go take pictures. They were like, "Dude! You want to come along?" I was like, "No, I don't even like rap, let alone DMX. Even so, why the fuck would I care about a celebrity getting out of jail?"

Any talk of going undefeated before the 1st half of the season is over is ridiculous imo. Pats-Broncos game is a game we will never see happen again. The Broncos would of never had a 24 point lead without all those fumbles and the Patriots would of never came back without all those turnovers. Besides, the Broncos already lost before that game.

The Steelers should trade up for Jadeveon Clowney is personally my favorite...
