VigilantZombie Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Bears defense is legit imo. But the Steelers are the best team on that list imo. Can't say with a straight face right now they're better than KC, anyone who makes that argument is kind of foolish, I mean considering we actually lost to KC. NE, well we'll see, that's going to be one of those 'any given Sunday' games, but obviously NE will be favored. I trust Pittsburgh's offense more than Houstons, SD's, or Chicago's.

I would have never thought I'd see the day the Texans ST unit was considered the best of a group of four (let alone one of those four teams having ST wizard Dave Toub as their ST coach). Is this a case of the Texans unit being good (it's improved by a LOT) or is everyone else bad? Admittedly, haven't watched much of the others' in this respect.

Kip Smithers Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Chargers are the best of the bunch imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showtime Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 I think the Chargers are the best team. They have a great offense and now that Joey Bosa is back they have an explosive defense. I really like the Texans because of Watson. The kid is just a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinSting Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 But the Chargers play in a stadium that's a 2-hr drive away from their fan base. Who wants to drive in L.A. traffic on a Sunday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you thinking of someone else or possibly forgetting that he is (sadly) no longer the Bears ST? Or should I just write this off as an old age moment? It's a mixture of both. In light of the Mitch/Watson thread, I have been watching alot of Texans games lately and outside of kicking and leaving alot of points off the board, I have not seen many mistakes at all on either side of the ball unless I'm missing something. I have seen ST's nearly cost the Steelers games (including the Bucs game-- if Fitzpatrick was even just slightly competent, they come back and win that game thanks to ST's giving them good field position for stupid penalties, the 30 yard punts and klunkers off the goal posts). Don't even get me started on the Bears ST's.....my god. They started out playing so well but have fallen apart to the point that I am still convinced that they will some how, some way keep us from making the playoffs. They have already cost us a game against the Patriots and have allowed others back in contention by making stupid mistakes and/or not doing their jobs (ie DET). Likewise for the Chargers.....lost cause. Just ST's have potentially cost them 2 losses this year--or at the very least prevented them a chance to win (Chiefs, Rams(?) I believe).

I just don't believe in Trubisky or the offense enough. I think their Defense is elite. Best in the league. But not carry you through the post-season when we have 3 of the greatest offenses in NFL history all playing at the same time. I don't think their offense is as good as total points suggest but is bouyed by two huge performances. Also don't think the razzle dazzle that Nagy employs can work in the post-season. The offense itself (not including defensive scores) since week 4 has scored 30+ 3/7 games. Has scored no less than 24 points. HAS NOT TRAILED SINCE WEEK 5. HAS ONLY TRAILED IN REGULATION IN 3 GAMES ALL YEAR. The offense is as good as the numbers suggest. And every teams ppg is bolstered by 1 or 2 big time performances. Its confirmation bias to say the Bears are outliers and everyone else is normal. In fact since week 3 (not sure if it's still true after Monday Night or not) The only team that has scored.more than the Bears is the Saints. And what quality wins do the Texans have?

Excuse me if I don't think that 30+ against the Bills, Lions, and Buccaneers are impressive. The only 30+ point showing that is impressive is against the Pats. The reality is they've only put up 30+ four times, and twice were 40-burgers against really bad defenses. Yes, they are the outliers. And I think any win within the AFC South is an impressive win as it's a competitive division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple of things here... Steelers are the second best road team in the NFL over the last two years at something like 14-1-1. If we're bringing up the past, the fact is the Chargers O wasn't as good as the Steelers O last year, nor this year. You're also acting like Fichtner hasn't called an infinitely better offense than Haley, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
