WE WON BITCHES!

Postby lloydgreene » Tue Oct 06, 2009 12:32 am

I really have no tolerance for people who complain when we lose that we didn't find a way to win and then complain when we win that we didn't win the way they wanted us to.

I see the same second half collapse of our defense that the rest of you witnessed. I also saw special teams give up 14 points.

We still have a LOT of work to do on 60 minute football. There are many things that need to be addressed.

But we won people. We played well enough to win and showed glimpses of dominance in the first half against a really good football team who never gave up.

So you think the Redskins should feel equally as good barely beating two teams without wins (Rams and Bucs)?

Stillers have always been a proud defensive minded francise. Can you really be proud of giving up 28 points in the fourth quarter? Do you really blame the special teams? Should a defense that was number one last season and wanted to be considered with the best of all times be proud that they could not stop a team after an on side kick. Last years team would not have given up a touchdown after the on side kick and a good chance not even a field goal. This is not Stiller football Bitches so quit wallowing in a shallow victory and saying all is well.

totally correct

if we where playing NE or the ratbirds we would have had our asses handed to us there is no excuse after being up 28 nothing to even have this turn out as close as it did

Allow me to remind you....
TD Drive for # 3 - 4 plays, 66 yards, 1:30 elapsed
TD Drive for # 4 - 3 plays, 59 yards, 1:17 elapsed

That's 2 TDs on 7 plays, 125 yards, in 2 Min 47 Secs, with ZERO incompletions, ZERO Sacks, and ZERO resistance.

That is NOT acceptable.

So we should be happy that we beat one of the worst football teams in the league after giving up 28 fourth quarter points? This is a team that barely beat the OAKLAND RAIDERS! This is a team that has NORV TURNER as their head coach! This is a team with absolutely NO RUNNING GAME! Totally unacceptable. To be happy with this win is to be happy with sub par play. Against any half way decent team in this league we would have gotten SMOKED! Our defense isn't right and if we don't do something fast we're going to continue to see fourth quarter comebacks all season long.

Agreed. I'm not happy about the 4th quarter either, but I'll tell you I'm much more happier than I would be had the Steelers lost. They're getting it fixed. Polamalu is coming back. They'll be fine.

We won but losing Troy on D has been like losing Ben on O - we become extraordinarily ordinary. One thing to keep in mind when saying we'd get waxed if we play NE, Balty, etc: THIS TEAM ALWAYS PLAYS UP OR DOWN TO THE COMPETITION!! They very rarely put the gas to the pedal - in fact only team they may have done that w/ last yr was NE. As far as the AFC North, the Crows play the Bungles this wk & then have to face the Vikes & Broncos. The Bungles tangle w/ Houston & Chicago in the near future & then play SD, Minn, & the Jetz to close out the season. We have Det & the Clowns the next 2 wks- great chance for all 3 teams to be 4-2 by Wk 7.

I agree with all the criticism of our play, our execution and our lack of focus in the 4th quarter. I understand how we seemed to fall off the table in the second half.

I will not, however, allow my displeasure at our play to override the fact that we found a way to win -and we WON the game, it wasn't handed to us by the other team or the officials. We overcame some PISS POOR decisions on the field and the sideline, but we won. We still have 3/4 of the season ahead of us, Troy is on the way back and we still OWN our destiny.

I believe that this is the same team that won the super bowl last year and that we will still finish the season in the top tier of the AFC (and win our division) and have EVERY OPPORTUNITY TO REPEAT. We sputtered to a 2-2 start, not 1-3 or 0-4. Our best football is ahead.

To say that the Pats or Ravens would have handed us our butts... I say we just as easily would have stayed focused against better competition and blown them out. I put my hypothesis up against yours and both are impoossible to prove. That is, until we play them and I hope we do see the Patsies in the playoffs. I am disappointed in our play for sure, but I still get excited about what lies ahead.... oh yeah and Fire Arians.

You are a faggot. I hope our defense gets its act together. Every analyst in the universe is asking the same questions. Most fans too, except of course LG - the "sublime" faggot

my thoughts:

we won bitches!

boy, did the oline look great! i hope they are showing signs of improvement instead of flashes of good.

i would love to see mendy get up to like 245 lbs. im a bettis homer. great game in the backfield.

hines hines hines... deflate that ego, buddy. you had two gimmies and dropped 'em. 60 minute football.

wallace should bronze his shoes and wear 'em off his chest. be close enough to a 3rd place medal for being the go-to 3 spot. learn to catch, limas. hope you're taking notes and extra throws to you. rookie schooled your ass. hardcore... yo.

definitely concerned about the pass rush. getting pressure, but not as quickly as last year.

why is it clear, to beat pittsburgh, throw up the middle 4-7 yards? yo, dick! cover that part of the field in passing situations. your scheme is goatsed. gaping.

gay needs to stop the celebrations. living up to his name. i miss mcfadden fo 'sho.

that TD on logan's return was a complete BS farce. how was forward progress not called? just another officiating gaffe AGAINST pittsburgh that will fly under the carpet and swept under the rug. this one cost 6. most holds and such do not. anyway, how in the hell do they not blow it dead? the dude is 5'SIX. how many guys were on him before he got stripped? come oooon.

all-in-all a solid 45-50 minute effort. holes to fill for sure. we definitely look like a reeeally good 2-2 team.

we won bitches! :celebrate: :sufu: :celebrateagain:

PIGVOMIT, you started this by calling me names when I correctly suggested that the Stillers would beat the Chargers convicingly (I was half-right) and that the Patsies should beat the Ravens and that our situation would not be as dire as it seemed after 3 games.

All I did was express faith in those guys who wear the uniform and you called me names and suggested I was spouting verbal diahrea or some thing. I will find the quote and post it below this one. Everyone can see for themselves. As for our fued. Silly, but I don't care- we both root for the same team. But I will simply ignore your ass if you childishly insist on following every post of mine and suggest that I try a new tampon. It really was slightly amusing the first time.

AS I have said, I am as disappointed as anyone at how we start out the season. But I always force myself to see big picture from week to week. Here is why I am not ready to concede the season to anyone else and still believe our Super Bowl chances are as good as anyone.

Division Title:
We have a lot of guys with heart on our team. WE play in Prime Time next week at Home against a Contender. (Prime Time, Home, Contender). WE will step up and light them up. Fear of 1-3 is not the issue. Reclaiming our respect will be. I fully expect us to knock San Diego around next weekend. Not to mention that we will already know the outcome of the Ravens- Patriots matchup.

It is likely that the Pats beat the Ravens. I would not be surprised if the Ravens win, but I am thinking at home the PAtriots pull it out. So after we play next week, we will be 2-2 and the RAvens 3-1. We would be one game back with two game to play them straight up. I still like our chances.

Besides the Ravens, I fear no one on our schedule except us. If we get back to form, I expect us to put on an 8 or 9 game win streak. If we do not get it together, then these losses won't matter anyway. Our season will be lost if we lose to the opponents on our schedule.

In other words, you end-of-the-world-as-we-know-it types, we should be 3 and o. We could be 0 and 3 just as easy. We are a championship team who gave 2 away. I believe our bell has been rung and we will make a statement next weekend.


PGSHIT WROTE:Have you read your post yet? If so then I will tell you that the vomit is indeed from your post and not last nights hamburger. What a futile exercise in blind hope and misguided fan loyalty. Every sentence of that post is rooted in wrongeheaded thinking. Hope blows. Hard work and brutal self assesment does not

The bullshit factor of your post puts the onus for our success in the hands of THE PATRIOTS BEATING THE RATBIRDS? EASILY BEATING THE CHARGERS?

Wake up fool. We need to win one game at a time and to do that the Stillers must fix a multitude of problems.

My prediction of the outcome of last week was correct.
