Colin Cowherd's Top 10 NFL Teams
 

Do you agree?

1. Seahawks (they got it all)
2. Broncos
3. 49rs (go Niners! :) )
4. Bengals (surprise team this season)
5. Patriots
6. Cowboys
7. Saints
8. Packers
9. Falcons
10. Colts (he says Luck next superstar)

I think the Bengals, Colts, and Cowboys are too highly ranked. The Bengals and Cowboys are perennial under-performers, and the Colts are probably a year or two away from being top tier. IMO.

I look forward to seeing how the Cowboys blow it this year. Always exciting.

Why do we hate the 'Boys so much? :D

The league continues to go down hill.
It used to be the only low-life team was the raiders, who attracted fans with no morals and no class.
Ganstas and wanna-be hoods were the raiders target audience.

That has all changed, several other teams have now stepped up and challenged the raiders for the low-life team of the league award. Seahawks and niners top that list IMO.
Cheap shots, running their mouths constantly, turning scum into an art form.
The bengals might start out well but will dwindle towards the end of the season as the player's probation officers catch up to them.

The patriots are the ONLY team left in the league that has not gone gangsta and still have any class at all.
Will that be enough to win the big one? Probably not but there are plenty of teams to root against who have a shot at it.

I was a cowboys fan until they started signing criminals.
Jones is a sell-out.

To me they're like Notre Dame - always surrounded by huge hype but with little substance. Plus I think Jerry Jones is a d-bag who won't ever have a legitimate team until he stops micro-managing it. Which won't ever happen, because he has a Texas sized ego.

Yeah, even the Niners have followed suit.
So, what to do?
What can the NFL do when it's embedded in our culture?

per recent stats (yeah I know); NFL players have lower rates of arrest than the general populace. (nbc radio is source)

It would be interesting to compare the arrest rates of NFL players vs. millionaires in the general population.
I could pretty much guaranty that an NFL player is more likely to get arrested than the average millionaire.




But it isn't so much about them getting arrested as how the act on the field.

There's a reason it isn't allowed to spike the ball in football outside the pro ranks. it's called sportsmanship.
There's a reason it isn't allowed to dance around like a silly mary every time you get a sack or a first down in football outside the pro ranks.
Sportsmanship. Besides looking ridiculous i mean.

If I owed a pro football team it would be very similar ot the patriots with no show-boating allowed, no talking smack about the team or team mates, no acting like a punk allowed. 1 screw up and you're gone.

I'd also take a pair of scissors to anyone who's hair sticks out of their helmet.
Frigging embarrasment seeing all those dreads hanging all over the place.
Yes, that goes for polamalu too.

And the more tatoos the lower the salary.
If a player had tatoos all over his self like a clown, minimum wage.

Either that or go play somewhere else.

What you tryin' to do...bring respectability into the NFL?
It ain't the USTA, ya know.

geez angry much? Should everyone be a carbon copy of you? I personally hate the goofy ass crew cuts so popular today but wouldn't think of telling another he can't wear his hair that way - regardless of his chosen profession. Just outta curiosity how old are you? Your rant reminds me of my father.

I have to whole heartedly agree... I'm not a huge football fan... but it is the best excuse I have to relax for a couple hours and drink beer on a Sunday afternoon.

I find it ridiculous how these millionaire athletes prance around like school girls every time they catch a ball or make a tackle... oh wow... you did YOUR JOB! That job you get paid millions of dollars to do!

How would this look in real life? Every time you go to the supermarket and check out the person at the cash register started jumping up and down and pumping their fist "Yeah baby! Checked out a customer!"

Right On! :D

Exhibit A: Aaron Hernandez. What a stand-up citizen he was. Good thing the Patriots got rid of him BEFORE he killed several people.

I do find the celebrations irritating too. However, I also realize that it is a high adrenaline game and that pumps more freely after big play. Suffice to say different times. I was HS wrestler on a team that won first in far-east for many years. I tended towards being mellow prior to and after a match. Some might have mistaken demeanor for not caring. Later was in special ops unit in Army and was the same, however other guys in unit could get quite noisy and pumped prior to move out. Different strokes.

When you have no sense of Self, you pretend to pull away your shirt to expose the big red S on your chest after you do what's expected of you all the while you're getting gazillion $$$.

Reminds me of what my international bus. g/f used to say about the world's worst customs agents - black females...cuz they've never been in a position of power in their lives.

Doubt that's what's going on here. These guy have likely had a sense of self since garnered adulation from playing ball. They may not have the same level of education or sophistication as some here, but I am sure they have a sense of self. Certainly not the same a low level customs agent.

Keeping the adrenaline and big mo going... not quite same on the field of play as in the office doing accounting...

Then why did they remove their helmet every time they withheld a fart?

hmmm, did or do? Hot perhaps? What does that have to do with sense of self... call me thick but not following the psychoanalysis here?
