Glad to see Belichick is mixing the defense up more and sending Mayo on blitzes
Glad to see Belichick is mixing the defense up more and sending Mayo on blitzes
It's comforting to know you can always return to Fabbs acting like anyone on SpursTalk gives a about what he has to say, and equally comforting to know you can take a two hour dump on his chest and all he'll do is accuse you of being Mono, quote you and replace your text with a joke most of us learned in the 3rd grade, or post a Simpsons picture. Funny when this picture quite accurately sums up any post Fabbs has ever, or will ever make:
Isn't it ironic, dontcha think?
That's just it, you can literally bait Fabbs into his own shtick. That's how played out it is. He's clearly butthurt over how despite the fact that he thinks trolling is stupid, people respond to it and think mono's funny. So one day he decided he'd fight the good fight and call everyone he suspected of being one of mono's trolls with this garbage "Mul roll" business, and the rest is history. The epiphany probably hit him while watching the Simpsons, making a PB&J with Welcher's jelly (see what I did there?) and fingerbanging his pet weasel. With the Ralphie card already played in this thread, I'm sure I'll now just get one of his generic cookie-cutter filler quotes slipped in next.
We staaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaacked
Their running game and run defense look beastly so far--that's what matters most. Nobody gives a if Brady/Mallett/whomever can chuck the ball for 5,000 yards and 50 tds--it hasn't even won them a playoff game recently.
If the law firm et al can continue to produce while on the opposite side Wilfork and Haynesworth can shut down the inside running game, than New England we'll be disgusting.
I'm still not sold on their secondary though, and I don't think they match up well with The Pack should they meet in the SB.
They have a deep as group of corners if they're all healthy. Bodden and McCourty as the starting corners, probably Darius Butler as the nickel corner, and Arrington/Ras-I Dowling/Wilhite as the other corners.
Their safeties are the issue since Meriweather is a moron and Pat Chung sucks in coverage.
God damn the Patriots look awesome this year. Definitely my favorite team.....such a smart FO and coach, just like the Spurs.
fabbs please reply in this thread with a ralph wiggum post or calling me weasel, welcher,monoslob, or any other cliche post of yours if you want to start the Axe/Fabbs subcrew.
Nicely done.![]()

I thinks the Pats will go 19-0.
I've thinked that before.
But i welched.
I'm a welcher.
I went to that game... had great seats. Had as much fun as you can have when your team gets its ass handed to them.
If the Patriots don't address the giant problems they have at C and RG, it'll be the same story as last season. Great regular season, run into a 3-4 defense in the playoffs with a line that manhandles Koppen and whatever scrub they'll be starting at RG. The Lions aren't even a 3-4 defense but their D-line exposed the huge problems New England's interior O-line has. With the scrubs they have at C and RG other teams can get pressure up the middle to easily with D-linemen who can bull rush, and we know how ineffective Tom Brady is against interior pressure. The time to replace Dan Koppen was after he got destroyed by Haloti Ngata in 2009 yet BB doesn't seem to realize how worthless he's gotten.
Not yet. Losing Welker to PUP or IR would be a moderately big deal but it wouldn't be the death blow people would talk it up as. It would force Brady to spread the ball around and work through progressions rather than stare Welker down like he has a habit of doing. If he's out for awhile they could move Branch to the slot and have Brandon Tate/Taylor Price start opposite OchoCinco.
None of that is as big a deal as the hole they have at C and RG IMO. their last 3 playoff games have all been abortions largely because of how much they shat the bed against interior rushers. It's been a problem for years and hasn't been addressed.
It looked pretty ing awful yesterday, no doubt. Suh and Co. had their way. You just know Rex Ryan was jerking off to that game.
tbh anything that gets Brady to start looking at the two best receivers on the team more (Gronk/Hernandez) is a good thing.
Yeah exactly. Losing Welker might turn out to be a blessing in disguise for Brady like Kevin Faulk's injury last year or the Randy Moss trade. Now both the receivers (Moss and Welker) 2009 Brady loved to stare down and over-rely on are gone and hopefully he'll return to pre-2007 Brady where he just threw to whoever was open.
A Woodcuck injury would really help the team out now. He's another guy who got WAY too many touches late last season and against the Jets when he's nothing more than a change of pace/3rd down specialist type guy.
The Great White Hope is gone? NOOOOOOOO.
Seriously, I'm a fan of Welker, but I think we have enough to get by without him.
