 | re: MSB Opinion: Bill Simmons - MinnesotaTiger on 9/11/12 at 1:38 pm I kind of compare him to Coldplay. Really great at what they do, but not "cool" anymore so they get tons of hate.
In this analogy, Stephen A. Smith would be Nickelback, Rick Reilly would be Aerosmith, and Klosterman would be Arcade Fire....

 | re: Vilma now apparently ready to discuss with Goodell - MinnesotaTiger on 9/11/12 at 1:36 pm [quote]Vilma should take a 5 week suspension.[/quote]
This would work well for the team, but would Vilma want to forego 5 weeks of pay?
I have a feeling unless it's cut to 2 or less than there will be no deal....

 | Denver (1-0) at Atlanta 1-0) discussion / predictions - MinnesotaTiger on 9/11/12 at 1:24 pm Obviously a huge game for the Saints considering how solid the ATL looked in a tough road venue this past Sundy.

Line - Atlanta by 3
I didn't see much of Atlanta's game but I did see the Broncos/Steelers game. I really want to pick Denver in this spot, but I fe...

 | re: How much was this game an anomaly for Drew Brees? - MinnesotaTiger on 9/11/12 at 1:18 pm [quote]
This game was in a dome. I was in shock after the first 2 series, he was like 1/5 and RG3 was perfect. [/quote]
His protection sucked, his receivers weren't getting open. He still put the balls where they could/should have been caught to keep the drives going. Not evey time obviously...

 | re: How much was this game an anomaly for Drew Brees? - MinnesotaTiger on 9/11/12 at 1:17 pm I can't believe his passer rating this game was worse than Cleveland.
IMO he played decent on Sunday. Was the victim of a ton of drops.
He flat out sucked in the Cleveland game. He was literally a shell of his former self. :lol:...

 | re: Why do Jordan, Ellis, Smith seem to consistently underperform? - MinnesotaTiger on 9/9/12 at 9:38 pm I don't really watch the line enough to see much more than whether or not they're "winning" or "getting push".
Once the initial surge is done I put all of my attention on the QB or RB, etc. I only peripherally watch the lineplay to begin with.
It seems like both Redskins lines absolutely disg...

 | re: How long do we give Mark Ingram a pass? - MinnesotaTiger on 9/9/12 at 9:36 pm Dude, we abondoned the run from the opening gun.
First series - three incomplete passes
Series after 49ers regained the lead - three incomplete passes
Horrendous playcalling - and it's a trend. We need to stick to the run even if it's a "run-like" call such as a screen. I count screens as...

 | re: How long do we give Mark Ingram a pass? - MinnesotaTiger on 9/9/12 at 9:33 pm [quote]I cringe when he takes carries from Thomas. I don't know why this staff is so insistent on Ingram taking carries. He really does nothing better than Thomas and Thomas adds another layer in the screen game. Thomas has more power than Ingram too, IMO.[/quote]
Agreed, but we need to save PT f...

I agree with this 100%. I think we WANT to run but our playcallers have no bloody discipline. They abandon the run at the drop of a hat. Payton had ONE good year of...

 | re: How long do we give Mark Ingram a pass? - MinnesotaTiger on 9/9/12 at 9:31 pm Ingram only got like 4 carries today.
PT needs 12-15 touches a game
Sproles needs 12-15 touches a game
Ingram needs at least 10-12 touches per game.
I hate this 80% passing shite. I hated 2007 and 2008 and I didn't love last year as much as most of yall did. frick passing records - let's p...

 | re: Kromer.... - MinnesotaTiger on 9/9/12 at 6:24 pm I'll defend him he wasn't that bad on the postgame. Said we'll fix it, gave credit to the Redskins, etc.
I've actually like what I've seen and heard from him in interviews, which is why I was so surprised to see what a huge pussy he looked like on the sideline today....
