WOW you're a freaking retard. I didn't quote the whole article because my argument wasn't WHY he isn't playing, it was the fact that him and Bledsoe haven't had a good connection so far. Did you even freaking READ what I wrote? Let me quote it again for the ignorant.

"If he and Drew cannot get on the same page...let the disaster begin. It's only 10 days into training camp though, so they have a lot of time to work it out. Dallas says they aren't playing well because the D is playing great. lol"


I never "contorted" the truth idiot. Take your BS somewhere else and learn to read the context of a post, not just the content.


*yawn*
Get off your high horse..
Most quarterbacks are not on the same page with their receivers at the beginning of camp.. nice way to turn it around though, and bash TO

And whats up with the name calling? Is it really called for? Or is that your level of communication?

Get off my high horse. You claim I'm contorting the truth, when in fact you never read the context of my reply based on the quote.

I didn't bash him. Again, quoted for the mentally handicapped.

It's only 10 days into training camp though, so they have a lot of time to work it out.

Dude, Honestly, you STILL haven't fully read what I wrote and now you're back peddling trying to make yourself not look stupid. Own up to you.

Yes the name calling is called for. You called me out. But you were wrong. So you're an idiot. Any questions?

Own up to what? You pulled a P&N tactic.. so what.. is that really something to get all worked up over? if it is, you have serious issues in life.. If you think that is calling you out, then by all means take it the way you want...

If that makes me an idiot, then I guess i'm an idiot..

I didn't pull any antic. I think we're already well aware that you're a tool. I mean you do hang out in P&N!

Thanks for adding to the post though. It's great when you have noob come in and flame instead of participating in the conversation.

?Let?s just say we had some problems in protection," Manning said. "I?ll give Pittsburgh credit for their blitzes and their rush, but we did have some protection problems.

Where did you get that from? What was the question that prompted that answer. Gotta give more than just pulling one line from something and saying he was talking smack a bout his team.

It was from his interview right after the loss. I should say, in fairness, that he did try to buffer it by preluding it with "I'm trying hard to be a good teammate here....."

Read another take on it here

You can google it as well and find a ton of other bloggers and sportswriters bashing him for it.

He usually tries not to dog teammates. It's probably pretty hard to take a loss like that to the Steelers and not be pissed.

What he said wasn't particularly bad, but sportswriters always have a way of twisting things :D

Not a chance. Would you say Dan Marino was over rated? There are many great QB's out there that just didn't win the big one. It's a team sport = you win as a team.

That's true, but Dan Marion never really had a good cast of characters around him. He certainly didn't have much of a running game.

Last year, Peyton's team was awesome. He had one of the best receivers - a great RB - good O-line and a great defense.

If Dan Marino had been QB, would he have won the Super Bowl?
How about Montana, Elway, Brady?

I don't know that Manning can get it done in a big game. There is still some story to tell so we'll see...

Good oline? Did you watch the Steelers-Colts playoff game? :confused:

That's because the Steelers have an amazing d-line.

Hrm, that kinda eliminates the rest of your argument i think :p

The rest of my argument is that with the talent on the team he had, ANY coach could have gotten that team to the superbowl.

edit: If you followed the Bills for more years than just those 4 years when piles of people jumped on the bandwagon, you'd be amazed at how many games the Bills were leading in the 4th quarter, but lost.
