Hm. You guys are making a big push for a top ten evil team. Maybe even top five over here...

That's fine I like to root for heels more anyway

I don't want green beckham though unless he gets professional help

JT Jag posted:

You picked second in the draft and you haven't really done anything this offseason that will likely lead to immediate improvement.

they kept everyone worth keeping and added starting talent to the defense during free agency then during the draft they loaded up on offense so both sides of the field are a complete mystery but still better than cleveland and the potatoskins

Cleveland improved in every position except QB, where we moved laterally. C'mon, just because we didn't mortgage our franchise to you Washington style doesn't mean we suck.



Your defense let Brian Hoyer and Travis Benjamin put Jersey's in the HoF, just saying.

last year the defense and the titans in general were rear end. this upcoming season the defense actually has talent, dick lebeau, and is year 2 in the 3-4 transition.

If you take a :siren: Highly Scientific :siren: look at this, for whatever reason the number one draft pick tends to go to teams that play the AFC North and not to teams that play the NFC East. In the 13 seasons since realignment the Ravens have played the worst team 10 times!



The Niners play the AFC North this year. :unsmigghh:

all that chart proved was the afc north is actually trash rather than highly competitive

Niners didn't have a top three pick in the years before Harbaugh (the last top five was Alex Smith) and had a trash poop roster then.

In TFF's NFL teams go 2-14, 12-4 or 8-8. There are no in-betweens.

sorry for rooting for a team that only goes 8-8 besides last year where they oddly went 2-14 and another year where they went 13-3

So Metapod, you're a Titans fan, right?

Should I have any hope that Jeff Fisher will finally put together something watchable now that he's ditched the Brian Schottenheimer albatross and tried to switch to being run first entirely? Or is he just continuing the futile gesticulating that got him fired from Tennessee in the first place?

if nick foles plays really really well you can expect a playoff appearance if he doesn't expect 8-8

Andrew Luck is evil, not for who he is, but for what he represents: a self-entitled team that only had two sub-.500 seasons in the last 15 years, and of course one of those was the season they pick up a brand new franchise quarterback to replace their old one.

There are two kinds of rivalries. Division rivalries and playoff rivalries. Divisional rivalries are pretty self explanatory. Playoff rivalries are what RG3 seems to see as rivalries. This are almost all based on the two teams frequently meeting in the playoffs with several heartbreakers for each team.

Pats/Colts
Pats/Ravens
Giants/49ers
49ers/Cowboys
Packers/49ers
Colts/Chiefs
Bengals/victory

basically just two teams that are good at the same time for a while, because they also meet in the regular season a lot due to the way the schedule works

i'm probably alone in this but i believe that titans/ravens is a playoff rivalry
