TOM BRADY and Week One NFL Stuff

[UG]

Tom Brady's left leg was snapped in half just a few minutes ago by a Chiefs defender. The injury may be life threatening. No other details at this time.

BIG RED I'M THERE FOR YOU BUD, CRY ON MY SHOULDER IT'S OK.


P.S. Now it's Chiefs vs. Patriots, "first team to three points wins!"

[mcatdog]

on the bright side the chiefs are better than the lions

[a500lbgorilla]

he'll be easier for red to chase now.

[Lukie]

what actually happened?

i just see on nfl.com brady down with injury; return questionable (as if we'd trust the patriots when it comes to proper injury reporting anyway)

[UG]

I saw Favre threw a TD bomb today, what else is happening in the NFL?

[Lukie]

whats up UG? this thread was a great idea because we didn't currently have any threads about the nfl

[UG]

what actually happened?

i just see on nfl.com brady down with injury; return questionable (as if we'd trust the patriots when it comes to proper injury reporting anyway)

Chiefs defender (name escapes me right now) got taken to the ground on a pass rush. Defender did like a bear crawl and dove at Brady's legs and landed on his left leg. Brady's left leg bent awkwardly and as son as he hit the ground he clutched his knee in pain. He was able to limp very slowly off the field. It didn't look super-serious, like season-ending or anything, but it looked bad enough that he might miss a few games because of it.

(Then again, who knows, this is TOM FREAKING BRADY we're talking about, amirite bigred?)


P.S. Moss just caught a TD from Cassel, game over.

whats up UG? this thread was a great idea because we didn't currently have any threads about the nfl

I thought a thread with TOM BRADY in the title would attract the masses a little better.

Plus, the "NFL IT'S BACK" thread has a lot of meaningless preseason bullshit, along with overzealous homer-predictions that won't come true. Week one isn't talked about until page two, and really, who wants to go to page two these days?

I'm going to withhold judgement because I havn't actually seen the play, but this brings up a point I've been wanting to make for a long time--

Sooner or later, all the crap the patriots do is going to catch up to them. Call it Spygate, call it running up the score when up 5 TD's in the 4th quarter, call it Vince Wilfork blatantly elbowing the Bill's QB's knee (the name escapes me at the moment), call it Vince Wilfork trying to poke Brandon Jacob's eye out, call it Vrabel taking a cheap shot at the knee's on a spike against the brown's joe thomas, call it rodney harrison being overwhelmingly voted dirtiest player in the league, call it their overwhelming success this decade, whatever you want to call it, everybody in the NFL hates them, and i think you're going to see a big fat target on some of their key players' backs (or knees) in the future.

I guess it's good that we didn't get blown out, but grrrr....lots more losing ahead, better get used to it.

stupid chiefs

[zook]

McNabb had ~300 yards and 3 TDs in the first half. DeSean Jackson could have been a good pick.

[Lukie]

my god, ive never seen a more perfect pocket hold for so long for an entire sustained drive as tony romo is getting.

so much for the browns re-vamped d-line, or maybe the cowboys o-line is that good at pass protection.

[Jack Sawyer]

once is enough prozach



also, weekly nfl threads are the nuts

and the chiefs safety did it. the prick even fist-pumped while getting up

[a500lbgorilla]

lol at complaining about a team with Flowers on it. That's like complaining about the luck you had while winning a huge MTT!

[swiggidy]

It's ok Lukie, they've put together a nice drive here.

[Lukie]

i so called that play as soon as they motioned winslow over to the right side.. such an obvious bootleg, how do they let winslow get so wide open?

[Lukie]

It's ok Lukie, they've put together a nice drive here.

yes yes, i am a happy guy right now

[UG]

lol at the Browns pass rush, Romo has all day back there

[Lukie]

lol at the Browns pass rush, Romo has all day back there

THATS WHAT IVE BEEN TRYING TO SAY

Shaun Rogers had a nice spin move when he shifted over the left guard and got into the backfield and forced a hold, but that's the only real presure we've had all day.

no idea what mcdonald was doing on the TO TD.. looked like a blown coverage coupled with no pass rush, bad combination in football

[UG]

hey the new Sports Illustrated has a big piece on the Browns and how they're trying to "get over the hump" and be a playoff team this year. you should check it out.

[Lukie]

poor special teams play too goddamn. syndric steptoe is no josh cribbs, and dave Z is punting like an idiot

[UG]

I love all of the Chiefs' commercials I'm seeing on TV. You used to never see any because tickets to Arrowhead would be sold out as soon as they became available. Now they're having problems filling the seats, and it's looking like some late season games may be blacked out because of this.

The commercials I've seen are laughable. They're going to suck, and everyone knows it. It would be awful to be a member of the Chiefs marketing department, as polishing a turd isn't an easy thing to do.

[WildBobAA]

I'm surprised Romo is not dead after that hit.

[Lukie]

hey the new Sports Illustrated has a big piece on the Browns and how they're trying to "get over the hump" and be a playoff team this year. you should check it out.

i will help them:

we need more defensive talent. a lot more. at the very least a rough and tough inside backer, an outside backer to compliment wimbley, an nfl-caliber free safety (brodney pool has no instincts whatsoever and 3 concussions at age 24.. stick a fork in him); his replacement is no better, and a couple more corners.

add depth ALL-AROUND to that.

but other than that, we should be ok.

[pankfish]

I think it may be time to take Romo out of the game. We have a 3 TD lead and a capable back up. Tony looks hurt, he may have a concussion. I'm not sure that was a dirty hit, but it was certainly an illegal one.

[Trikflow77]

that was a sick hit, hes lucky his head didnt explode

[pankfish]

I hate when they try and pull this fancy bs around the goal line and end up manufacturing momentum for the other team. Put the Barbarian in and give him the ball.

[swiggidy]

I hate Hate HATE that crennell ordered the field goal. What the fuck pussy shit is that? Get a TD and build some confidence. Not getting the 1st down is the same as just giving up and taking the field goal.

[fjuanl]

im ashamed, sd defense looked HORRIBLE

[WildBobAA]

Sooooo....early reports say that Brady is out for the season (not official at all yet)

[Lukie]

i have my own thoughts on the whole field goal thing and brady thing, buut first thing is first:

hole in the wall.

wow. wow. wow

[Jack Sawyer]

"The play was not intentional," Pollard said, according to The Boston Globe. "People can call me a dirty player, you can call me whatever you want to call me, it's not a dirty play. When you have 230 pounds on your back, and you're trying to go forward, things will happen. I saw the ball was still in his hands and I tried to get to him. I tried to get up and get to him. But I couldn't get up, so I just tried to grab him. It was not an intentional play."

yeah, sure

and your post play fist-pump was unintentional too

[Jack Sawyer]

yeah, prelim reports say its a torn acl, gg
EDIT: actually, not really
he was spotted walking to his car, with just a slight limp




intrigue: culpepper just retired... (moss)


flacco played well for the ravens, and matt ryan did not make the falcons miss vick too much

[bigred]

[swiggidy]

hole in the wall.

wow. wow. wow

I hope that stood for: Worst. Show. Ever.

1) Annoying contestants
2) Brooke's voice is fucking annoying
3) The holes are still sized for asians

That's not enough to make up for the fact that I loled 2-3 times.

[UG]

he was spotted walking to his car, with just a slight limp

You can walk/limp around with a torn ACL, not much more than that, though.

[frosst]

holy shit. not cool, not cool at all.

I think it stood for more like, what the hell is wrong with people??? but yeah, right idea.

I only watched about 15 seconds of it after i got home and it was actually worse than I thought it would be based on commercial previews.

[pankfish]

Yeah, for the normal person a torn ACL isn't really that big of a deal. I've known people who have lived with a torn acl for a couple of years and not even known they had one. After the surgery they are back on there feet the next day/within a week walking around.

A major tear I imagine is more crippling than a minor tear. But for a football player it doesn't matter if it's major or minor because they still get the same surgery and miss a year to rehabilitate.

[WildBobAA]

So the Colts just got dominated by the Bears, looks like the AFC is wide open this year.

[bode]

[Ragnar4]

You should be even more ashamed. Who ever wins tomorow night owns a 1 game lead on the AFC west. The Broncos, or the Raiders.

I'm a Broncos fan, but my money is on the Raiders leading the west tomorow.

[flomo]

anyone have a winning team?


go cowboys!

i mean go JETS!

Brag: Chiefs are still in the running for the 1st draft pick next year.
Beat: Fuck D-Bowe that is what I say. You are paid millions to practice catching a freaking ball in the off season. Now do it. If you can't figure this out, go ask Tony G. (Edit: Not that Tony G, the other one)
Variance: Bernie Pollard cannot be blamed for fighting through a marginal hold and trying everything in his power to get to the quarterback. Sorry Tom Terrific.

[yourfather]

Matt Cassel is the new Tom Brady and Tom Brady is the new Drew Bledsoe IMO.











Please.....

1) Maybe this is the plan. Suck really hard this year and get the first pick, take Matt Stafford from Georgia and FINALLY develop a quarterback for once. Throughout King Carl Peterson's reign (KC's GM) we have never developed a QB. Maybe he'll part ways with the Chiefs and we can finally develop one? That is the hope.

2) Dwayne Bowe sucked major asshole in yesterday's game. Four dropped passes including a possible game-tying touchdown with time winding down. And after the game he said he thought he played "ok" and wasn't worried about his play at all. Fuck him. Man up to it and say that you had a shitty game. If he was a true #1 receiver (another thing that has never been developed during King Carl's reign), he would have manned up and been disappointed about the game, promising it would never happen again.

3) The hit wasn't dirty. Pollard had a guy on top of him and was basically held. He was trying to do what he's paid to do in that situation: GET TO THE QUARTERBACK. He got there, and in a freak play he landed on Brady's leg when it was firmly planted into the ground. Split second either way and Brady gets up because he is better situated to take a hit.

[lolzzz_321]

1.) Brodie is a glass QB. Ya, I say we play Thigpen and see what he can do. I don't think he is that good, so ya we should draft a QB. Dude from Georgia or that one guy from Wake. Or Tim tebow?

2.)Ya, did he really say he played ok? What a fucking dumbass. He's gotta catch that first ball. What the fuck @ not being able to score with 4 chances from the 5 yard line though. I still think he is damn good though.

3.)Obv that hit was not dirty.

[bigred]

i think cassel will be good. not brady good but good

[wesrman]

What a throw by Rodgers for the touchdown.

god please stop saying Favre

I'm so tired of hearing about him

1)tebow will not survive in the nfl. He relies on his ability to rush and you cant do that in the nfl.
2) D-bowe sucked, looked almost as bad as edwards.
3)Not dirty at all, quit bitching pats.

[WildBobAA]

This broadcast is tilting me so bad. First of all, we could have a huge thread debating if Tirico, Kornheiser or Jaworski is the worst announcer (I would vote Jaworski). Second, Tavaris Jackson is ridiculously bad. Third,why is the scoreboard graphic on the bottom of the screen so damn big? Is that ESPN Monday Night Football bar really necessary? Like that ESPN logo in the bottom right not enough? seriously WTF. Finally, STOP FUCKING TALKING ABOUT BRETT FAVRE ALREADY FUCK.

[Trikflow77]

Jaws and Madden together would be the best announcer team ever.

Madden: That guys got mud on his jersey!
Jaws: Thats the key john, let me break it down for you.......

[Silly String]

Mike and Mike and Mike make Jaws and Tirico look good. Greenberg's play by play is really bad. Almost like the crazy fan you get stuck behind occasionally that does all the play by play for his wife the whole game. Terrible.

[UG]

Ha, one of the guys on sports radio here in KC did an 8-team parlay for $10. If all of his teams won he would have won $2600. He was 7/7 and only needed the Vikings to win tonight to cash in big.....poor guy.

I would have hedged 1k or something on the Packers but the dude just let it ride....idiot.

[Trikflow77]

lol mike and mike are worse than jaws and co. Wow they are bad.

Matt Cassel is the new Tom Brady and Tom Brady is the new Drew Bledsoe IMO.

Yeah I hope he is at least average. Wishful thinking ftw! They have a super soft schedule and I think the D will be a bit better and 2 or 3 solid rbs. They could still win 10+.

Pollard or whatever his name was blocked from behind. It wasn't a dirty hit in any way. He still needs to be killed though, I mean, it's Tom Brady.

[Jack Sawyer]

LOOK AT THE MF FISTPUMP POSTPLAY

[Lukie]

Sooner or later, all the crap the patriots do is going to catch up to them. Call it Spygate, call it running up the score when up 5 TD's in the 4th quarter, call it Vince Wilfork blatantly elbowing the Bill's QB's knee (the name escapes me at the moment), call it Vince Wilfork trying to poke Brandon Jacob's eye out, call it Vrabel taking a cheap shot at the knee's on a spike against the brown's joe thomas, call it rodney harrison being overwhelmingly voted dirtiest player in the league, call it their overwhelming success this decade, whatever you want to call it, everybody in the NFL hates them, and i think you're going to see a big fat target on some of their key players' backs (or knees) in the future.
