We got lucky last season?

 

BR obviously has no idea what luck Is. 

 

What a frigin joke 

 

 

I knew this would  be fun. I like the #1 reason.........because Sean Peyton is angry. Good stuff. I realize it's just a homer fluff piece like someone else pointed out, still fun though. Is it September yet?

I don't understand how this team is so loved after losing arguably a top 5-10 offensive talent in Graham while still not proving they can play any defense.

 

You don't win without defense.

 

Cheating stuff aside, the Patriots improved defensive play is what put them over the top. I don't have to elaborate on Seattle. The Colts have all that offense but their defense is soft and it showed.

 

The Saints and Falcons both have mediocre defenses at best and that's why I'm not too worried about them.

 

Any analyst that looks at this Saints team or the Falcons and projects them as champs are putting their eggs in a risky basket.

 

I'll take a consistent defense any day over flashy offense, especially a flashy offense with less weapons.

Didn't they lose Pierre Thomas too? He was a good player/fit for them.

Meh. We went out there and crushed both the Saints and Falcons last year, when the season was on the line, clearly showing were the cream of the crop in the division. Now, the Saints might've gotten better over the offseason, but we've made moves to better ourselves as well plus our young guys are a year older. 

I really feel we're getting that NFCS crown again.

look at how entitled saints fans are

oh no it's not possible that the panthers could have maybe been a better team in 2014 as evidenced by both of the blowout victories on the road in hostile stadiums against teams in contention for the division late in the year.  it was just blind, dumb luck.

e: also have to praise the writer for his quality analysis of our first round pick which basically boiled down to "mel kiper had breshad perriman ranked higher and the panthers didn't need a linebacker".  great poo i'm sure espn is going to be lighting your phone up any minute.

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
