Super Bowl 43 Teams Both 1-2

[Montsta]

So if we can pull out a win at the Dallas Holy Temple on Monday Night Football, we are right back in the thick of things. Lots of football left to be played. 0-3 would have me worried, but not quite panic mode yet.

last year is last year, the sooner some of you understand that, the better.

[Saint J]

My point was it doesn't matter what anybody did last year.

[Montsta]

He's just saying that we're still in position to have a successful season at 1-2, as other teams have proven. It's not that hard to understand.

Thank you.

My point was it doesn't matter what anybody did last year.

I understand your point. I'm simply saying a lot of people thought that Pittsburgh had a shot at repeating, and that Arizona would be a contender. I don't think their fan bases are panicking quite that much yet.

I think to open the season with 2 straight losses is of course a bad thing. But if we can win MNF, tak a week off, and then play a WASH team that looks BBBAAADDD to me, then we can start taking a collective deep breath and calming down.

To expand a little:

Super Bowl Champions: Steelers (1-2)

Super Bowl Runner Up: Cardinals (1-2)

Championship Opponents:

- Ravens (3-0)

- Eagles (2-1)

Divisional Opponents:

- Chargers (2-1)

- Giants (3-0)

- Titans (0-3)

- Panthers (0-2)

(apparently it was better to play the Sunday game last year)

Wild Cards:

- Vikings (3-0)

- Dolphins (0-3)

- Colts (3-0)

- Falcons (2-1)

Three of last year's twelve playoff teams have yet to win a game, while two more - the Super Bowl teams -have only a single win to their credit.

Interesting :sosp:

Not especially meaningful, but interesting

Quick, go post that in this thread too: http://www.carolinahuddle.com/forum/carolina-panthers/20470-13-8-a.html

Or you could just continue to troll vaguely. It's whatever.

It's a valid point, and a legit possibility.

As as aside, there's a devilish little part of my brain that would looove to see what would happen to the Cowboy fanbase if they lose their second straight game in the Ego Dome.

It is interesting. I know last year is last year in the NFL, but players and coaches and all NFL eople will tell you how anyone can beat anyone on any given Sunday. If my math is correct, we are not mathematically eliminated from having a 14-2 season yet. Doesn't matter if the wins come during the beginning, middle, or end of the season.

I know I'm usually overly optimistic, but the panic button is out of control in here lately. Maybe I'm wrong and our team truly is shitty, but that's what they go out and play the games for.

If someone told you in January of last season that in week 3 of the 2009 season the Titans, Dolphins, Panthers, Steelers and Cardinals would have 2 combined wins, they'd probably say you're crazy.

Carolina 27 - Dallas 20

No one's. I just call it like I see it. And from what I see, you like basking in negativity here. As a Saints fan, you may be accustomed to giving up after week 2. Once we're 4 out of the division lead, I might begin to worry. I guess I'm just your typical, delusional fan.

Don't mind SaintJ. He's soaking up the Saints good fortunes while he can, because he knows it won't last too long. I actually heard that they think that thing on Drew Brees' face is malignant and spreading. Bummer. :eek:

[Saint J]

I was making a valid point, leave it up to some homerish baby to make this a smack thread.

[Kevin Greene]

last year is last year, the sooner some of you understand that, the better.

And 40 plus years of failure is 40 plus years of failure.

Understand?

[Montsta]

I was making a valid point, leave it up to some homerish baby to make this a smack thread.

I was making a joke about Drew's facial growth. Don't take it personally. It was just divisional banter. Unless it really is cancerous. Then I'll feel bad.

In January.

[Saint J]
