The most annoying thing about John Madden, is that every time he makes a comment, he repeats it five or six times in a row just to make sure that everyone heard him. They need to replace Madden with someone whose mind hasn't degenerated to the point where it can only process one thought every 30 seconds.
I'm not sure why the Raiders got desperate and started throwing lots of long bombs so early in the second half. Kerry Collins overthrew everyone on just about all of those plays and they still had plenty of time to make shorter passes and move down the field.
Patriots switched to 4-3 from 3-4...they stopped the run with 4 top linemen..it also confused kerry collins..plus the raiders knew they werent gonna win the game anyway
In NFL playbook, 3-4 defence scheme is used to stop the running game of your opponent team. It's just not Niners. Alot of teams are doing it this year. Chiefs just did it to Jets.
In case you are wondering what 3-4 means, is 3 Linemen against 4.
The basic scheme is 3 tackles and 4 linebackers, as shown in the diagram.
DT= Defensive Tackle
NT = Nose Guard
OL= Outside Linebacker
IL= Inside Linebacker
3 linemen= NT, DT, DT
4 linebackers = OL, OL, IL, IL
This where the “3-4” comes from.
In this defense, you need one really large nose tackle. This NT has to be a real monster of a guy, 350 pounds or so, because his job is to take on the center and one of the guards simultaneously on every single play. Then you get two more defensive tackles at around 300 pounds each, and play them up against the offensive tackles. All three of the defensive tackles have what is called two-gap responsibility
In the 3-4, you have four linebackers. Two of these guys are inside linebackers, and are expected to weigh roughly 240 pounds and be quite athletic. You also have two outside linebackers. These guys are sometimes called “tweeners,” as they are in between the normal size of defensive ends and linebackers. These guys should weigh perhaps 255-265 pounds and also be quite athletic. Because these are linebackers, they tend to be faster than the heavier defensive ends.
This defense was used by Bill Parcels and his N.Y.Giants to win a couple of superbowls. From 2000 to 2004 it was also used by Bill Parcels’ former defensive coordinator and now head coach of the New England Patriots, Bill Belichick, to win three more superbowls Taken from here
we beat ea-girls tonight. The defense was absolutely suffocating. McChoke did his usual thing, I was surprised he didn't throw up in the field. D-Hall took a giant step toward being one of the elite corner. T.O. is a great receiver, he will get his numbers, 7 catches for 120 yards are good numbers. But he didn't beat us deep and D-hall got up on the line and bumped him everytime. And most of his catches were when D-hall didn't cover him.
By the way, congratulations to jeremiah "I am a dumbass" trotter. Nice work moron, get thrown out before a game like this. But the worst thing isn't that he got thrown out, it was that a 185 pound cornerback whupped his azz on national tv. Nice work nimrod.
oh yeah, it was just a little trash talk. Maybe jeremiah “I am a dumbass” rotter thought, “hey, look over there, there’s a 185 pound corner. I bet I can push him around and he will run away like a bitch.” Too bad the tough guy linebacker got bitch slapped by not only one but TWO little cornerbacks. Trash talk is nice and all, but maybe, just maybe, you actually wait for the game to start. And the “we would’ve won if bitch slapped jeremiah played” excuse from ea-girls fan will begin in 10…9…8…7…
No, it wasn’t like the NFC championship game. It was more like the super bowl with McChoke dry heaving. Ahh, ea-girls fans, gotta love their fondness for the past. When in doubt, let’s bring up the past accomplishment no matter how small they are. You have every right to be happy with your precious nfc championship trophy. Make sure to shine it regularly. I could bring up our nfc trophy for 98, but unfortunately for both of us, I have higher standard for my team. Don’t get me wrong, I am happy with our nfc championship, but the last thing I wanna do is be like ea-girls fans and talk about the NFC championship trophy like it’s the superbowl.
Now hold hands ea-girls fan and sing in unison with special ed from crank yankers to this tune “yyaaaaaayyyyyyyy, we won the nfc trophy yyyyyaaaaaaaayyyyy yyyyyyaaaaaaayyyyyyyy”
Answer: blah blah blah
Question: What sound does a retarded Jeremiah make when he wants to talk trash?
man, oh man, talk about embarrassment. Getting slapped by a guy half his size.
And what was funnier was he tried to say that it was mathis that started the fight. Umm, jeremiah, I know it can be hard for a retarded person to grasp, but there are actually cameras around that catches these types of thing. Next time you wanna lie, you might wanna consider that.
And that’s all I gotta say. Seattle is next. Our schedule is a killer and there is no time to bask in the glory anymore. Gotta get ready for seahawks.
That was a great win, but I wouldn't put too much on it, the 49ers are a very bad team. The Raiders game should be a much better test to see where this team is, and then road games after that.
5abi, bhaijaa, sabr da chuska looo. Its only 3 weeks into the season. If we go by your logic we should ask Peyton Manning to hang it up too...I will spare you the embarassemnt by not posting his stats...:)
