Pete Carroll will be a failure in Seattle

January 12th, 2010 by Rogersworthe | No Comments | Filed in Rest of the NFL

Yeah, I’m calling it now. Before it even becomes “official”. Pete Carroll will not succeed in Seattle.

Douchenozzle

He just wasn’t a good coach with the Patriots, failing more with the infrastructure that Bill Parcells left behind than Wade Phillips has in Dallas. On top of it, his college teams were ultra-talented but amazingly uncreative on both offense and defense. He ran absurdly basic schemes and let the talent win games. While commendable and the best way for ultra-talented teams to win in college, it won’t accomplish anything in the NFL. On top of it, there is no reason in the world whatsoever to think he has a good eye for NFL talent. Full control? Seattle is making a huge mistake.

In 3 years, Seattle will be hiring a new coach.

Titans are the 8th winningest team of the Decade

January 7th, 2010 by Rogersworthe | No Comments | Filed in Rest of the NFL

JJ Cooper, the NFL blogger for FanHouse, did a review of every teams record for the decade. The Titans come in 8th at 91-69. This, combined with Vince’s relative success the last 10 games, is why it’s pretty stupid to think Jeff Fisher is a bad coach and should be fired. When you have someone who over a decade is top 10 in his profession, YOU DON’T FIRE THEM.

Favre Collapse: Predicted here on T-Rac’s Posse

December 29th, 2009 by Rogersworthe | 1 Comment | Filed in Rest of the NFL

In a post written on 10-22-09 called Schadenfruede: The Last Chance at Football Joy, I said this:

Storyline of Potential Hateful Joy #1: Brett Favre tanks and the Vikings lose a key game due to 6 interceptions to miss playoffs/lose in playoffs:It’s coming. I can feel it. It’s inevitable. The Vikings look awesome. They even have luck on their side. Every announcer is masturbating to the greatness of Favre. And yet… I can feel it. He’s going to collapse. They’re going to collapse. The football gods demand it!! And when it happens, I will be crying tears of joy (not really, but I will be happy).

Don’t look now, but… actually do look now. Because it’s awesome. Brett Favre can’t beat anybody. Jay Cutler is stealing his spotlight to make a comeback. He’s making every white analyst who used to play in the NFL look like morons. He just cost the Vikings the 2nd seed in the playoffs, forcing Favre to play an extra playoff game. My next wish?

The Vikings lose next week and end up playing the Green Bay Packers in the 1st Round of the playoffs.

Cry, you big baby. Cry because you have tanked ANOTHER team.

Weekend Poll: Who is the best Runningback in the NFL?

December 18th, 2009 by Rogersworthe | 1 Comment | Filed in Rest of the NFL

Alright, so this one is pretty basic. We’ve got 4 players who have a legitimate argument about who is the best Runningback in the NFL. The 4 I nominate are Chris Johnson, Maurice Jones-Drew, Adrian Peterson, and Steven Jackson. Now, you decide who you think is the best. I have already been on the record in saying Chris Johnson. How about you?

Who is the best Runningback in the NFL?

Patriots’ mascot busted in prostitution sting

December 12th, 2009 by Spizz | No Comments | Filed in Rest of the NFL, T-Rac

Yeah, that’s right, Pat Patriot was arrested this week for “prostitution-related crimes”. No joke. The article doesn’t say whether or not Pat was buying or selling, but you know what they say about big heads.

Pow, right in the kisser!

Pat Patriot loves snowballing.

Another weird element of this story is the fact that indoor prostitution was for some reason legal in Rhode Island until fairly recently. Why must the nation’s greatest state be so small?!?

I think we all know that T-Rac has never had to pay for it.

T-Rac’s NFL Great Games Preview: Week 14

December 11th, 2009 by Rogersworthe | No Comments | Filed in Rest of the NFL

Obviously I am a huge Tennessee Titans fan. But, like many of you, I am also a huge NFL fan. So I am adding a new feature where I name the other games I am interested in watching and why. At the end, there will be a poll for you to pick the game you are also interested in watching. Pretty cool, huh? We’re so interactive here at T-Rac’s Posse. It’s really a democracy. You run the blog, not me. The interest scale for me runs from 1 to 10, with 10 being a Titans game, and 1 being a hockey game.

New Orleans vs. Atlanta: It’s the time of year when every game of any team that is still undefeated becomes of interest. However, this is still pretty dull. I’ll probably check the updates, and if it isn’t a blowout I will watch. But I imagine it will be. Interest Scale: 5

Denver vs. Indianapolis: Same reason, except Denver has a much more real shot of beating Indy than the Falcons do of beating the Saints. Interest Scale: 6.5

Cincinnati vs. Minnesota: Please, please, please, please let the Arizona-Minny game be a sign that Brett Favre is falling apart and will be tanking the Vikings. PLEASE!!! Interest Scale: 7 – jumps to 9.5 if Brett starts throwing picks

San Diego vs. Dallas: Dallas is freaking favored by 3. I think San Diego will blow them out of the water. Interest Scale: 7

Philadelphia vs. NY Giants: Meh. Two teams that I feel I can pretty much write off for different issues competing for a Wild Card loss. Interest Scale: 5

Not really an exciting week. The most exciting non-Titans matchup seems to be San Diego and Dallas along with the Bengals and Vikings. So now it is YOUR TURN TO VOTE!!!

Which NFL Week 14 Game are you most looking forward to?

  • Cincinnati vs. Minnesota (75%, 3 Votes)
  • Indianapolis vs. Denver (25%, 1 Votes)
  • New Orleans vs. Atlanta (0%, 0 Votes)
  • San Diego vs. Dallas (0%, 0 Votes)
  • Philadelphia vs. NY Giants (0%, 0 Votes)

Total Voters: 4

T-Rac’s NFL Great Games Preview: Week 10

November 13th, 2009 by Rogersworthe | No Comments | Filed in Rest of the NFL

Obviously I am a huge Tennessee Titans fan. But, like many of you, I am also a huge NFL fan. So I am adding a new feature where I name the other games I am interested in watching and why. At the end, there will be a poll for you to pick the game you are also interested in watching. Pretty cool, huh? We’re so interactive here at T-Rac’s Posse. It’s really a democracy. You run the blog, not me. The interest scale for me runs from 1 to 10, with 10 being a Titans game, and 1 being a hockey game.

Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Cincinnati Bengals: If Cincinnati wins, I’ll be pretty impressed. Cincy is, fairly or unfairly, fighting for legitimacy in this game. Reminds me of the Titans vs. Steelers game a year ago (except we then puked all over the idea of gaining legitimacy by losing 9 straight). Interest Scale: 7.

San Diego Chargers vs. Philadelphia Eagles: Two good teams with coaches who are infamous for dumb decisions and clock management issues. This game will not be decided by talent, but by a retarded coaching move. SIGN ME UP!! Interest scale: 7.5

Dallas Cowboys vs. Green Bay Packers: Every time you count Dallas in, they lose. Big time. Green Bay still has a good offense hidden in there somewhere. Interest scale: 5

New England Patriots vs. Indianapolis Colts: This is going to be an awesome game. Also, there will be good announcing. I am even contemplating doing a Live Chat for this game. Oh man, this will be good. Interest scale: 9.75.

So, go vote for which non-Titans game interests you the most.

Which NFL Week 10 Game interests you the most?

  • Patriots vs. Colts (73%, 8 Votes)
  • Bengals vs Steelers (27%, 3 Votes)
  • Chargers vs. Eagles (0%, 0 Votes)
  • Cowboys vs. Packers (0%, 0 Votes)

Total Voters: 11

Parity isn’t dead. In fact, it’s alive and as healthy as ever

October 28th, 2009 by Rogersworthe | No Comments | Filed in Rest of the NFL

The common theme this year seems to be that NFL parity is dead. Slate’s Sports Podcast Hang up and Listen discussed it, Pro Football Talk did a whole TV segment on how it is dead, Colin Cowherd keeps talking about it, and several random blog posts appear under googling “Parity is dead”.

Well… no it isn’t. The problem is people are defining parity, as it is related to the NFL, incorrectly. Parity is not whether there are good teams and bad teams. Parity isn’t even whether good teams remain good and bad teams continue to be bad. What makes NFL parity is competitive advantage.

In baseball, if your team isn’t a high payroll team and doesn’t scout and luck their way in to one magical season, you’re screwed. The Twins have no chance of keeping Joe Mauer. Tim Lincecum won’t be in a SF Giants uniform in 3 years. The Royals have essentially what would be the NFL equivalent to Matt Ryan for a pitcher, but everybody knows he will leave and the Royals will continue to suck.

In the NFL it isn’t like this. Any team in any city can compete if they have a good owner, good General Manager, a good Coach and a good Quarterback. And if they land a top QB, they can afford to pay him and keep him. Granted, these things are hard to get but none of them are money or location related. It’s all scouting, business, coaching, and luck related. That’s why parity in the NFL is NOT dead. Everybody is on an even playing field. (more…)
