Peterson says he's best CB in football, talks about Smitty.

Smitty hasn't had a big game yet so why think stopping him is the key? Truth is that we spread the ball around quite a bit.  Smitty has 143 yards on 14 catches, Ginn has the same number of yards on 7 catches averaging a ridiculous 20 yards a catch and 2 TDs.  Olsen leads the team in catches and yards and except for a few drops would have 4 more catches and another 100 yards. Honestly this offense is balanced and productive.  If Peterson shuts down Smitty that really doesn't mean the same thing as shutting down Calvin Johnson.

PP is an Alpha male, of course he thinks he's the best. Nothing wrong with thinking that... Doesn't make him correct but if I was Wes Welker I'd claim to be the best WR in the game... Wouldn't make him or myself correct either.

I guess what I'm saying us that it's normal for elite athletes to think if themselves as currently "the best"

Bruce Arians said it, PP just went with it.  We all know that Arians is the final word in defensive player evaluations.  He is a GOD at that poo.  Maybe we should just stay home and forfeit.

 

 

*** Arians and *** Peterson!  We are coming to kick your teeth in so get ready Cardinals.

To add to what P55 said and make an additional point piggy backing off his thoughts:

It just goes to show you how much more versatile we have evolved to as an offense. In the past, shutting down Smitty would usually mean a dismal performance offensively for us. Nowadays though, defenses have to pick their poison. At least one team this year will test Smitty and his age by single covering him... Smitty will make them pay dearly. I hope it's this weekend!

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By LegioX · Posted

      Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.

      If they lose the last three......

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two.

      Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
