Jonathan Stewart Panthers 362 3.8 5 24th

This could be ugly............

[DenBronx]

not could, it will be ugly.

think of how many yards we have given up already. this might be the worst run stopping defense in history. what makes anyone think that will change with the next slew of running backs?

[NightTrainLayne]

Good side? If we perform as badly as I think we will, there will be no choice but for Shanny to get rid of Slowick, and put all his energy into rebuilding the defense this off-season.

Maybe, if we're lucky, he'll get it halfway right, and we'll be a team to reckon with next season.

For the fourth straight season. :rolleyes:

It's the law of averages. . .sometime he will hit on something right.

[NorthernLights]

I'm guessing Larry Johnson is done for the year. He has an audience with the Commish next week and mensa chapter president Carl Peterson has already said he is out against TB. Kolby Smith and his 2.2 average rushing yards per carry shouldn't scare anyone at this point.

[turftoad]

They ones that are really licking their chops this week are Brown and R. Williams.

Lets just hope Torain is licking his too.

[Lonestar]

for all of you that thought the second half of the season was going to be easy.. that we would win them in a breeze.. considering we can't stop the run what happens when we find a QB that can pass on us also..

Ahahahahahaha


The defense is going cause this team HUGE problems unless during the bye we change this system AGAIN for the second year in a row..

MIA defense is not all that weak we could get another ass whooping..

Agreed. This should not be looked at as an easy win by any means. We could get our asses kicked.

We can't stop the run or the pass. Miami can be very balanced at times.

We need to eat up the clock and keep the ball away from the Dolphins.

Lets hope so but again MIA has a pretty good defense actually has had for a long time and now with Parcells in charge again and a decent QB and running game Jay MAY not get much chance to establish a running game.. or passing game for that matter..

actually, the good side is that i've got all of those backs except for LT on at least one of my fantasy teams. . . .

oh, he scares us-- we'll manage to make him look like walter payton. . . .

Once you get past the frustration and tears...all that's left is laughter. It's the only way to keep your sanity and deal with the situation without having to buy a new HDTV every weekend. ;)

I don't think it's funny at all.

If Defense wins Championships, where does that put US?? :tsk:

I will have to admit that I caught myself laughing several times throughout the NE game last week. It was the first emotion that came to me...

its like when you get so frustrated with something, all you can do is laugh. That's about how I feel about this year's team.

[Davii]

Do you think Shanny actually thought this was a good team when he guaranteed playoffs, or do you think he knew 8-8 would be good enough to win the Division?

He knew his new defensive scheme and DC would be tits.. mastermind that he is..

Did the guarantee come in writing?

What will he do if it does not happen?

good odds he fires Slowik and gives the job to the guy who currently refills the gatorade jug

when in the last four games have we been able to keep the ball? yah that would be ideal, but it does not seem to be happening. i don't know if it will change any time soon. we are all baggin' hard on the D (which we should), but the O has been equally as poor in all of the losses.

[Broncolingus]

For the fourth straight season. :rolleyes:

Best post ever...

Ummmm...

...NOT winning Championships?
