The NFL Thread

[UtahRatt]

Utah.

Having played football before like you have said. A six game losing streak and the frustration of the season going to shit. This is bound to happen. I am not sure I know of too many players that would be happy go lucky , everything is awesome WE ARE LOSING.. YAY!!!..

Dallas isn't the only team too have a losing streak, injuries or a bad season. Do you see those antics and players running the sidelines week in and week out on any other team? The Niners, Bills, Raider, Saints, pick any team. No you don't, they're supposed to be coached professionals. We're not talking about isolated incidences either. They're bush league.

Again.....
Jimmy Johnson: Cowboys' problem is players don't have to answer to Jason Garrett
http://www.foxsports.com/nfl/story/jimm ... ant-111515

The video that tells the obvious. It's fucking Jones, you know it, all of Dallas knows it. It's why the team is in disarray and has less to do with injury and more with the fact Jones allows this shit. Jones isn't a Coach and his Coaches are puppets.

Hardy was fighting in training camp. The sideline skirmishes weeks ago. Players like Dez walking the sidelines playing coach. There's a difference between working with your linemates and a player walking the sidelines acting like coach Dez. He's in the middle of everything.
You don't see ROMO out there running his mouth injured or healthy, he was smart enough and talked to Hardy in the locker room. Dez had no business yapping while limping the sidelines. He don't have any room doing up and down the lines healthy. He gets them worked up and pissed off. How many videos are there of him doing it? Including yesterday! Add that to Hardy along with a few others and you've got a team full of apes without a leader.

I've seen more fights then I can count but the only teams that won and lasted had an owner, coach, leaders and a team that didn't let their roid rage players run lose.

The Cowboy's problem is Jerry. He's why they've always fell short, cant overcome adversity and why they can't pull together now.

Completely agree. Known this for years and it will not change until the Jone's family sells. Don't see that happening, so, as a fan, you just hope that possibly there is some kind of change.


Most Cowboys fans know that Jones is and has been the problem. It just ain't going to change anytime soon.

[Crazy Levi]

I never thought I'd say it, but at this point Jerry Jones might be eclipsing Dan Snyder as worst owner in the NFL. I'm not sure I've ever seen a team more horrendously run in as many aspects of the game as the 2015 Cowboys.

[Bludegeon]

LOL>. Levi

You must of missed the 2001 to about the 2008 Dallas Cowboys. Much, MUCH WORSE.

I think Jones took the cake as #1 Worst Owner/GM after Al passed.

[Crazy Levi]

25 years ago, the Redskins got Buddy Ryan fired - a day after the first pro football game I ever attended.

Yesterday, they got Rob Ryan fired. Awesome. Unfortunately I wasn't there.

[Facedown]

On QBR:

I said it's an important stat then. I say it's an important stat now.

Peyton - 0.0

[Gritt]

Where is Matardo?

[Gritt]

Manning benched.

In the next week, we're going to get the... "Manning has an injury and might miss a week or two."

It gives them time to see what they got with Osweiler... and also allows Peyton time to rest his noodle arm.

If Brock lights the offense up, Manning's "injury" will then become a little more serious.

Osweiler will get "injured" right before the playoffs.

This will give Peyton the opportunity to choke again.

Nailed it.

[Crazy Levi]

I don't enjoy or revel watching Peyton suck fucking ass. It's one thing to enjoy seeing Manning collapse against the Saints in the Super Bowl, it's another to watch him humiliate himself years later when he shouldn't even be on the field.

He's just yet ANOTHER great one who didn't know when to hang it up, even when all the signs were there.

He was pathetic in the playoffs last season and was booed by his adoring home crowd. After the game he also looked like a man who knew his time was up.

But he slept on it and decided to come back for another season of abuse, just like so many before him.

He was a GREAT QB who was always mediocre in the playoffs. But he got his ring so he isn't another Marino or Kelly. Good for him. But he should have hung 'em up. He's probably taken a couple years off of his meaningful life with this garbage season.

I don't buy the tarnished reputation bit though. Almost all the great ones do this shit and while people will always remember their last horrible season it's not what lingers. Plenty of people don't even remember that Joe Namath spent his last season chucking INTs for the LA Rams, or that Johnny U spent his last season sucking in San Diego.

[Gritt]

I always thought Favre was the poster boy for hanging on too long. I was wrong.

[eddie lee roth]

Hold up on that laugh Levi, Sean Payton is saying he's not fired. At least not yet.

Still though he was run out of Dallas and now this I think it'll be awhile before he's a DC again in the NFL.

Seeing as how's he's such a blowhard the only NFL work he might could find would be with his brother.

Yes or no what'd you guys think?

And on a unrelated note how bout them Cowboy's eat shit fuckers. I'm sure you're going to win out now that Tony Ohno is back behind the center cause that's the only thing missing.

[kylel]

9-0!!! Go Panthers!!

[eddie lee roth]

Hold up on that laugh Levi, Sean Payton is saying he's not fired. At least not yet.

Nevermind

Did ryan promise he'd get another job in "about 5 minutes" again?

[UtahRatt]

Texans 10 Beagles 6

Adam "DickSucker" Jones....So you won a game just don't flaunt it! You won how many? How many have we won?
Adam Jones is the biggest douche bag shit talking player in the NFL and I hope he choked that loss down with a bowl of dicks.

Hey Adam, fuck off ya criminal, you gave up the TD. Enjoy the taste of it.

[Machado]

I swear some of you are closet Dallas fans. You hang on there every play, week after week. You criticize them when they win or when they lose. Nothing is ever good enough.
I saw the game Sunday. Let me just say that John Lynch(former Buc) was looking for reasons in the telecast to cast any negative light on Hardy.
The footage showed what? That he had his helmet off. Where is the footage of him barking at Winston? Much ado about nothing really.
Once again Dallas was in the game and minus the N.E. loss, the team has been in every single game until the very end.

I agree with Jimmy Johnson. Some of the antics we have seen this season would not have happened on his watch. Or would they. C'mon, those Johnson led teams were sleeping with prostitutes, doing blow all over the Metroplex and crashing cars. Let's not get carried away and state that Johnson kept all his players in line.

7 losses in a row is awful. The season could be over with 1 more loss. Romo has returned. Maybe he rights the ship.

Regardless, I know all of you will stay tuned and keep an eye on the team you dislike so much. Or do you?

[Gritt]

Much ado about nothing in regards to Hardy? You are the biggest fucking idiot on the planet. His fellow players hate him, he's a woman beater, he's a lunatic, he fights with his teammates constantly, and he skipped meetings last week just for the hell of it. Yeah, that's the kind of leaders I want on my team.

Agreed, I'd have cut him already they'd save something like 6 mil against the cap I believe, the season is pretty much over why keep such a cancer?

[eddie lee roth]

Give me a fucking break Matardo. It's the overkill from the media and fans just like yourself that makes it so fun and easy to hate on Dallas.

Here in OKC every game is televised and the paper will always have a story on them vs any other team.

I've said for many many years that my favorite team is the Steelers and my 2nd favorite is whoever plays Dallas. I've felt this way before there was a fucking internet so please get that stupid ass thought out of your head.

[WTF]

I've said for many many years that my favorite team is the Steelers and my 2nd favorite is whoever plays Dallas. I've felt this way before there was a fucking internet so please get that stupid ass thought out of your head.

I'm the same way with the Jets. My favorite team is the Patriots and anyone playing the Jets. I'm starting to actually lean toward anyone playing a Rex Ryan team though. I've hated the Jets forever, but Ryan brought it to a whole new level.

I like Romo. Good QB and seems like a nice dude. But fuck the Cowboys. And Manchowder.

[Crazy Levi]

Yeah, we are being REALLY HARD on a 2 and fucking 7 team. They are the worst team in football right now. Their constant losing, shitty personnel decisions, and defiant employment of the biggest shitsack in the NFL "just isn't good enough" for us. Not to mention their moronic fans like you.



Hey assfuck...remember when you couldn't go 5 goddamn minutes without posting about the fucking Redskins when RG3 and Shannahan were at odds?

Fuck you bitch. Pollos coming home to roost amigo!

[UtahRatt]

What's Machado spouting off about now? How he support women beaters?
Notice how he disappeared after his last bipolar post then comes back when his med's kick in.

Longtime Dallas broadcaster Norm Hitzges goes off on Jerry Jones!

Reading isn't near as good as the broadcast. Scroll to the bottom to hear the greatest rant ever. Haven't laughed so hard since Machado tried to plunge a toilet.
http://www.dallasnews.com/sports/dallas ... trated.ece

"If you enjoy being laughed at Jerry, then revel in it," Hitzges said. "Climb right into the spotlight and revel in it. Your team is now the most ridiculous team in the National Football League. The pregame shows, the postgame shows, all over network TV, all the commentators, they're laughing at you. They're watching you unravel in public. It's a like a circus, 'Step right up ladies and gentleman and watch the Dallas Cowboys unravel right before your eyes! Look at them in the locker room, fighting and screaming! Look at them on social media! Look at how they look like they don't give a damn on the field! Look at a coach that you have castrated!'

"Does Jason Garrett have any control of personnel? Absolutely not. If he had control of personnel some of the people that started the year on this team wouldn't be here. Does he have any control of discipline? Oh, please. Please. That's funnier than a Seinfeld routine."

Hitzges goes on to question whether Garrett even has control of the lineup because Jones made the announcements when Darren McFadden and Matt Cassel became starters.

"Does any other coach in the league have a situation where he's been so neutered? He does not control discipline, he has no final word. Hardy is late for meetings, virtually skips a meeting, any discipline? I don't know. Coach Jones what do you think? You run the team.

"If (Garrett) goes in the locker room and puts hits foot down do 14 people giggle? Or do they sit there tweeting during his talk? If you begged to look ridiculous Jerry you got it. You got it."

Hitzges goes on to mention that Jones should've disciplined Bryant and Hardy for their actions in the last week.

"Doesn't it hurt to keep giving guys like Josh Brent and Joseph Randle and Greg Hardy and ad nauseam chances to play again and they laugh at you? They take your money and shoot you a freakin' finger every week? Where the hell is your soul Jerry? Where the hell is it? Do you not care that everybody laughs like crazy at your football team? It's one thing to lose, it's another thing to lose when you've already sacrificed your damn soul.

"Get your butt down to the locker room Jerry and you discipline. You go locker to locker and tell Cole Beasley, 'Shove that phone as far up as it goes baby. You're off Twitter.' And, 'Dez, you do that again we are going to have to a serious monetary talk pal, and I don't care if I have to discipline you.' Or Hardy, or name it. Pick anybody else who steps out of line, 'I can lose without you guys.'

"This isn't a seven-game losing streak. This is a surrender of your freakin' soul."

[UtahRatt]

9-0!!! Go Panthers!!

Panthers 9-0
Cam's Ickey Shuffle - 2 out of 10.

Dear Mr. Newton,

Congratulations on your win in Nashville today. Our team played well, but yours played better. Kudos to the Panthers organization.

That game happened to be my nine year old daughter’s first live NFL experience. She was surprised to see so many Panthers’ fans sitting in our section of the stadium; that doesn’t happen much at fourth grade football games. And she was excited we were near the end zone, so we would be close to the “action,” particularly in the second half.

Because of where we sat, we had a close up view of your conduct in the fourth quarter. The chest puffs. The pelvic thrusts. The arrogant struts and the ‘in your face’ taunting of both the Titans’ players and fans. We saw it all.

I refuse to believe you don’t realize you are a role model. You are paid millions of dollars every week to play hard and be a leader. In the off season you’re expected to make appearances, support charities, and inspire young kids to pursue your sport and all sports. With everything the NFL has gone through in recent years, I’m confident they have advised that you are, by virtue of your position and career choice, a role model.

And because you are a role model, your behavior brought out like behavior in the stands. Some of the Panthers fans in our section began taunting the hometown fans. Many Titans fans booed you, a few offering instructive, but not necessarily family friendly, suggestions as to how you might change your behavior.

My daughter sensed the change immediately – and started asking questions. Won’t he get in trouble for doing that? Is he trying to make people mad? Do you think he knows he looks like a spoiled brat?

I didn’t have great answers for her, and honestly, in an effort to minimize your negative impact and what was otherwise a really fun day, I redirected her attention to the cheerleaders and mascot.

I could tell she was still thinking about it as we boarded a shuttle back to our car. “I guess he doesn’t have kids or a Mom at home watching the game,” she added.

I don’t know about your family life Mr. Newton, but I think I’m safe in saying thousands of kids watch you every week. You have amazing talent and an incredible platform to be a role model for them. Unfortunately, what you modeled for them today was egotism, arrogance and poor sportsmanship.

Is that what your coaches and mentors modeled for you, Mr. Newton?

They stay in "tune" because they know they will get some moronic response out of you. And, I am sure me, from time to time. haahhaha...You just seem to give em' a shit ton more ammo than I.

You are wrong. Johnson did keep his players in line. lol, The players that weren't producing. If you screwed up and you didn't wear 8, 88, 22, 28, 79, 71,etc , you got benched, released, whatever. He kept them in line, just didn't bat an eye too much for certain players. It is night and day how different the Cowboys are after Johnson's departure. Course, in this new NFL, half of those Cowboys players wouldn't be able to play now, and No way could Johnson coach now. But, he was on his players. Just ran it more like a college atmosphere.

Also wrong again about Romo coming back and this team doing something this season. This season was over after the loss to the Bucs IMO.. That was my last straw at a successful season. Course, that is some homerism talking. The defense is a hot mess. THe O-line doesn't look anything close to what it looked like last year. That happens when you get rid of players in the backfield that could get the tough yards and keep the defense off of the field. Dallas' defense has been a smokescreen for years. It is just a mystery how they can never improve.

Romo is missed, don't get me wrong. But, "Win the whole fuckin thing" ? , C'mon now, nice positive talk but, C'mon now...

[Crazy Levi]

The only fuckin' thing the Cowboys are winning this season is a very high draft pick, which I'm confident they'll fuck up.

[Machado]

You should work for a gossip magazine.
Did Hardy skip meeting(s) or was he late to a meeting?
There is a big difference.

Get the story correct before you run off at the mouth

Greg Hardy reportedly fined for missing Cowboys team meeting! Hardy missed practice a day after the Cowboys talked to him about his behavior.

HOW NOW BROWN COW?

[UtahRatt]

I love the video in that link: Luke Thomas is Pissed about Greg Hardy, Grantland and more.....

You've got everyone and their brother are saying Jerry Jones and the Cowboys should come down hard on Hardy...ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR FUCKING MIND!? I can't think of no other organization that deserves to have some kind of cancer ruin everything more then the Dallas Cowboys!

[eddie lee roth]

Romo has gone on Twitter with a clip from Major League with the words "The only thing to do now is win the whole fucking thing".

I hope Suh rebreaks his collar bone.

[Facedown]

I swear some of you are closet Dallas fans.

You must be a closet Cub fan then , right?

You hang on there every play

Speak english amigo.
