/dev/null Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 The Steel Curtain The Purple People Eaters Monsters of the Midway The Fearsome Foursome Our Defensive Front Line needs a nickname. I propose we start calling them the Maginot Line cuz Ralph spent a ton of money on a useless front line
BuffOrange Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 I third this nomination. All we need is Chan Gailey to become a collaborator with the Patriots. The French at least fought hard with some history of success though.

l< j Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 I brought this up once before, but they remind me of the movie "Ishtar".

DC Tom Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 The Steel Curtain The Purple People Eaters Monsters of the Midway The Fearsome Foursome Our Defensive Front Line needs a nickname. I propose we start calling them the Maginot Line cuz Ralph spent a ton of money on a useless front line Except that the Maginot Line worked - the Germans never got through it. They just went around it. You really need something that better invokes the spirit of a line that can't stop anybody, in any fashion. I'd suggest the Construction Workers - one guy working, albeit only occasionally, while three others stand around watching. But even construction workers occasionally stop traffic.
5 Wide Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 The Call Girls.... they get paid a bunch of money to get put on their backs
dpberr Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 I really like the nickname. From a historical and strategic context, it's exceptionally appropriate for the defensive line right now.
ICanSleepWhenI'mDead Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 How about the Pickup Line - - because they're usually really bad, even when they're hyped as being good.
