And also he is not even in the top 10 QB's of all time as of yet. It's still way too early. If he plays at this rate another 5-10 years and wins another Super Bowl or two then we can revisit this thread. Personally, I would go (modern era only- post-Johnny Unitas): 1. Brady, 2. Montana, 3. Manning, 4. Young, 5. Favre, 6. Elway, 7. Marino, 8. Brees then huge drop off. But for now, let's wait until Rodgers passes Jon Kitna on the all time passing yardage list before we anoint him the greatest QB of all time.

Sorry guys but the GOAT acronym has gotta go.

There are unquestionably worthier causes out there but I think the reason people are rallying around this one is that Talley is in the shape he's in as a direct result of something he did for us. I went back and forth on it and ultimately that's where I've ended up.

Hypothetical trade posts about trades that will never happen are the best.

Did he have it the whole game? If so, then I guess I'd grant him a reprieve on that but man he looked terrible. But if he looked like Tom Brady in his first start and in his second start he was hurt so his performance doesn't count, then I would venture to guess he won't be so readily available.

I actually watched most of the Texans-Bengals game on Sunday and Mallett played as poorly as I've seen a QB play in quite some time. He looked flat out awful.

This is an interesting thread. Some very thought-provoking opinions. I can see both sides to this one, but ultimately I think this is the best post on here so far and reflects how I feel about it.

not to mention Cleveland's defense is way worse.

So this is what trolling posts have sunk to? Man I miss crayonz.

OK tens of thousands. Fair enough. More than 6,000 though.

I don't know about you but I grew up in a land that had been inhabited by people for millions of years until they were mercilessly wiped out by these Christians you speak of within a matter of just a few hundred years. But you and Tim Tebow can go on believing that they sat down and had a peaceful turkey dinner together. And are you telling me with as much certainty as the Bills will play the Browns on Sunday that you know how the universe was created and what happens when you die? All I said was that I think it's a little nutty when someone possesses such hard and fast convictions about such complex questions. Go Bills.

I agree with you that his career is over. As far as what he did, no one would be making such a fuss if not for the video. What did you think the video was going to show? He already admitted that he knocked out his wife. Everyone- including myself- has gotten over the Michael Vick thing and agreed that he paid his dues. Yet if there was a video showing him actually electrocuting dogs my guess is no one would've ever gotten over it. Imagine if there was a video of roethlisberger raping that girl. I'm not advocating the bills sign Ray rice because I think his better days are behind him. But it's not like he's Bill Cosby.

ehh. One made a mistake and has acknowledged it from the very outset and even his wife has supported him throughout and the other is as certain that he has the answers to all the riddles of the universe as he is that the sun will rise tomorrow. I can tell you which offends me more.

Fandom is not logical. I'm just telling you it would annoy me more if the Browns fans got to celebrate a Super Bowl than if the Patriots got to celebrate another one. Again, at this point, who cares if they end up with three or four. If we had won one ourselves, perhaps I would be happy for another fanbase to experience it but until we do, I just can't be happy for other teams, I'm sorry. It's like if you're not getting laid, do you want to hear your buddy who never gets laid tell you about what great sex he had last night? But if you are getting laid then you'd be happy for him. I don't know, that's the best I got.

Am I the only one who doesn't care if the Patriots win the Super Bowl? I would just assume they win another one at this point. What do you do if you're a Boston sports fan if the Pats win the Super Bowl? Maybe give your friend a high five? It can't be that exciting for them. I would much rather have New England, Green Bay, Pittsburgh, Seattle or Baltimore win another one than watch another depressed fanbase like Detroit or Cleveland or Phoneix or Cincinnati or something get to experience what we haven't. At least that way we're not alone. I am not like many of you who say, "hey I think I'm pulling for this team now" once the Bills are out of it. Not to mention, as someone who's lived in Denver for 12 years, I hate the Broncos way more than the Pats anyway.

I am the last person in the world who would be in favor of this. I think the NFL is perfect right now with the divisions, scheduling, etc. and I generally hate changes. I hate the idea of a 17th or 18th game and I hate the idea of a 7th or 8th playoff team. That being said, I think I would be OK with making it so you have to be 8-8 as a division winner or else another wild card team is added and the # 1 wild card gets the 4 spot. EDIT: I'm watching ESPN and they mentioned that you're going to better off not winning the NFC East because more than likely the 2nd place team in the NFC East would get to go to Atlanta/New Orleans. They will make a change this offseason, bet on it.

Come on. 0%? Cleveland, Pittsburgh and Green Bay still have open air stadiums. Seattle went indoor to outdoor and they get more precipitation than we do. I am on record as saying it would be so weak if they had anything but an open air stadium. Would be so weird to tailgate outdoors for 4 hours and then walk inside. It's just the way I was raised. Actually surprised that I appear to be in the minority here.

I happen to think that the spygate scandal ran deeper than most people even realize but man it just sounds dumb when people constantly refer to them as the "Cheatriots" or "Bellicheat" or in this case, just "the Cheaters." All it does is perpetuate our already glaring inferiority complex. Just call them the freaking Patriots. Dude you're the man!

That was kinda dumb. Does he think the Packers should scrap Lambeau Field and get a dome as well?

you have mixed up two raiders playoff games. The afc championship game was not that cold. The game you are alluding to was a couple years later.

Been to over 100 games dating back to 85 and the only game I've been to that was more than a dusting (that Miami playoff game was a dusting) was the game depicted in my avatar against new orleans in 89. The infamous john fourcade (sp?) game.

Did you? If you did you would recall that the total snowfall from the blizzard was 12 inches. It was the wind that caused the snowdrifts that left 29 people dead.

perhaps if those crazy "enviros" had more of a say in things over the last 100+ years, a storm of this magnitude never happens. Have you ever heard of a storm like this one? Yeah no one else has either. Also as I read your post, I can't help but hear it in a southern accent.

Dome stadium in Buffalo?
