Losers blame the refs.

This should be Perry Fewel's Super Bowl. I expect him to be jacked up for it, and I'm hoping that spreads to the players. If he can help the team go 3-3 in the division, despite no hope for the playoffs, I think that would say a lot. I'm looking forward to it.

Must have been all of the royalties from "Cat Fancy" magazine that did it for him.

If Martz is hired as the head coach, I may very well drop my season tickets.

Well said.

Honestly, I don't care if we lose as long as everyone on defense has one single, solitary goal and achieves it: hammer Tom Brady every freaking play until he can't get up off the ground. Even on handoffs, I don't care. My favorite play of the decade was Nate Clements hammering Brady so hard on a scramble that he popped his helmet right off. Wish someone had a replay of that one.

Big deal, semantics. I should have said, "after two training camps in the league." Sure, they tried to keep him, but it's not like it's because they felt he was their QB of the future who would take over for Rogers someday. They probably thought he'd make a pretty good backup...someday. All I'm saying is that I really hope the FO is not counting on Brohm to be the QB of the future (at the expense of, say, somebody more promising). He might be, but right now hes just a high round draft pick who couldn't show enough grasp of the pro game to make a team's final roster, much less a backup spot. Do I think the Brohm signing was a good one? Sure, he might develop into a real starting QB someday. I'm glad they signed him. I just hope the FO isn't saying, "Great, we can check QB off the list now." Sorry if I don't grasp things quite as well as you do.

And the Dolphins.

A gunslinger? What exactly does that mean, though? I can't believe it means he has a strong arm, because I've just about had it with his weak throws. There were far too many times yesterday when an incompletion would have been a completion if we just had someone who could fire the ball. The near-interception to TO on the sidelines is one example -- he was wide open, but the ball took forever to get there.

So our quarterback of the future is a guy they plucked off another team's practice squad who wasn't even good enough to be the team's backup after two years in the league? Yeah, sounds about right.

It was Palmer. He actually had two crushing hits on special teams yesterday. And that Maybin hit was just vicious. I wish he could do that about seven more times each game.

As long as Chambers and Scott never have to block anyone one-on-one, I suppose we'll be fine.

Hope everything is well. All the best.

Seriously...whoever designed the logo for SB XII should never be allowed anywhere near a graphic design studio again.

Just interested to see if the winds are shifting.

I could be thinking of a different play, but I recall Hanny getting bull rushed onto his back one-on-one with Ellis. Not sure if Simmons had anything to do with it, but Hanny didn't exactly hold up his end of the bargain.

He's done okay. But man, did he ever get blown up by Ellis on that last drive against the Jets for the sack that pretty much ended it for us. Nothing like a three-man rush overpowering your five-man offensive line.

Yay, happy birthday!

I stopped drinking pop and started getting those individual packets of Crystal Light or Propel, and just mix with a bottle of water. Good stuff, no calories or sugar.

Man, this is just painful to watch. An uncomfortable reminder of just how bad this team really is.

No kidding. That was perfectly set up and blocked...not sure why it took him so long to hit it.

This is ridiculous. I thought our defense wasn't supposed to be this bad until the fourth quarter. I can't believe how bad they are playing.

Nice pancake by Levitre!

Oh my.
