Top 100 NFL headlines of 2008

I'll take #2.

 

mmmmm i love the sweet taste of recognition to ring in the new year

 

Yup....#2 is mighty grand!!!

 

Gotta love #1

 

I like the storylines on the list but i feel like quite a few of them are out of order. Also, the more i read and think about it, the more i really feel like Peyton deserves to be the MVP of the league this year as much as i would like to see chad get it.

 

JERRY Porter?

 

Jerry Porter huh?

 

lol u2 beat me to it . haha and number 74. washington lost their first game they did not start 4-0

 

Your sig makes no sense man

It isn't the job of a NT in our defense to make tackles. It's his job to occupy two defenders and open lanes for the linebackers. It's also not his job to rush the passer.

No interceptions or pass deflections? Those for a nose tackle are extremely rare and fluke like.

Ngata is great, but they don't even play the same position honestly.

/Off topic.

 

Thinking the same thing

 

still looking for proof that ferguson will make a big difference this game

 

And you come up with a comparison to your 34 end?

 

it makes perfect sense because im looking for proof on how ferguson will make so much an impact in this game as everyone here is saying.
that is why i put on there "game changing stats" - just taking up two lineman every now and then is not gonna drastically change the game when baltimore has faced the best defensive lines in the league

 

Right but your comparing two different positions and who do different things.

 

A 3-4 defense does change drastically when they are without their 1st and 2nd string nose tackle.

 

BURN!!!

maybe the kicker comparison was taken already for the comparison to penny...

 

I'd thank you twice for that if it were possible...

 

Jason Ferguson is a guy who clears the way for the linebacker and is darn good at it any thing else really is a bonus.

 

He makes a diffence because our third string NT (who isn't even a NT) can't do the same job correctly. He can't occupy two blockers or get penetration.

Ferguson can. It makes a huge difference. On the line stats don't change a game in a 3-4 defense like ours.

 

It certainly will make a difference having a guy play a spot he's used to playing unlike last time when randy starks was there. Is it the most important change/difference in the world? More than likely not. But it is fairly significant.

 

lol i have hit the jackpot. everybody went crazy. i love it. cant wait for sunday.

for the fiftieth time i did not put fergy and ngata up there together for strict comparison. i only put it up there to try and determine why u guys are so stout on one dude. sure IT WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE but my point is not the stats so to speak but also the fact that we have faced these kinda nt and lb combo's before. thats why im asking what the big deal is.

ur not gonna stop the run. all year we have been consistently able to run. check the stats with the exception of the horror film known as our game against indy.

im not trying to stir up complete anger or make fun. i understand the presence of a "legit" nt but this will not be the first nt we run on.

 

played lb in high school. we ran 3-4. not saying that makes me a genius but i know more than any Jets fan.

 

Look at how good at Haloti Ngata is at tackeling Jamel Lewis

 

my 78 yr old aunt who plays bingo on thursday nights and thinks a quaterback is just a refund knows more than jet fans dude.....stop kissin ***

 

I'm not questioning what you know about the game. I'm sure when it comes to your own team and defensive style you know a hell of a lot.

It's just that we also feel like we know about our guys, their strengths and weakness, stuff like that.

 

true we've been without our starting nt for pretty much the whole year kelly gregg who is the definition of someone who takes up two blockers but while we are there lets check his stats since he in definition is the same as fergy.

for the last five years gregg has had at least 60 tackles when his main responsibility has been to open holes for ray lewis terrel suggs peter boulware adualius thomas and many more. if the nt is really getting pressure up the middle then he will get tackles.

 

lol it was worth a shot lol

 

We're not going to stop the run. How do you know this? I'm not saying we will or we won't but apparently you are. What makes you so confident in your answer?

Can't speak for anyone else but I didn't go crazy. I rather laughed at your signature because I know that deflections, interceptions and tackles are the not most important thing with nose tackles.

If you didn't put them up for comparison then why did you put Ngata up there? If your looking to talk about a nose tackle then why place him aside a 34 defensive end? Moreover, why post statistics?

The reason I'm "stout" on Jason Ferguson is because he's done a good job of occupying blockers to free up our linebackers.

Again what makes you so confident? Do you know something that others don't? Furthermore, if you understand the presence of a "legit" nose tackle then why are you posting statistics of interceptions?

 

thx for the statement

now thats what ive been looking for. maybe ive been talking to the wrong guys on here but nobody has been able to give me a straight answer like these and thats all im looking for

 

Right... So here's my question for you... You going to be coming back up to stir up the pot when we beat you? Or you going to be running back to your Ravens board with your tail between your legs?

 

lmfao

and if a NT doesn't get noticed it means he has done his job. If he gets noticed he's ****in' up big time.

 

"YOU GUYS WONT STOP THE RUN"


lol......i believe thomas jones is the afc leading rusher......meaning he has more yards than any raven.....and i do believe....if im not mistaken......nope.....im not mistaken....he got....23 yards in 4 quaters of football last sunday....

good luck with your prediction anyways nostradamus

 

ive been saying on here since i joined that u guys could easily win so there is no shame in that . i think if we play our game we will win, but i'd hope u guys as fans would think the same.

 

Anyway back on topic. How is this an NFL headline?

94. Arena League suspends play for 2009 season.

 

lol seriously.....thats like

"cbs headlines of 2008: scrubs moved from nbc to abc!!!!"

 

Lmao!

 

I think Alen nailed it when he replied so I'm gonna leave it at that too.

 

How are you going to say someone doesn't know about football, then make that statement?

Besides, he's just razzing us because some fans over at his site are talking up ferg like he's unstoppable (it's kind of embarrassing).

Let's not take ourselves this seriously.

 

15. Discarded by the Jets, Chad Pennington leads Dolphins to AFC East title.


2. Miami Dolphins go from 1-15 to 11-5 and AFC East champs.

Should have been one thing. I understand 100 different headlines is a lot, but it's extremely poorly written.
