Mike Lupica on Sports Reporters-"NFC North is the New NFC East"

[CowboysFanSince88]

Anyone catch this fool this morning on Sports Reporters talking crazy? How in the hell does he figure the NFC North is the new NFC East? He reasoning was because of the three quarterbacks, Cutler, Farve, and Rodgers. So if that's the case then I guess the Lions represent what NFC east team?-lol

Farve is a overrated joke, Cutler already showed his ability to collapse under pressure, and Rodgers has done nothing.


But the NFC North is the best division in the NFC East all of a sudden?

 

[CATCH17]

Favre is going to be really good if his body can hold up.

But he is a fool for making this claim based on the pre-season.

 

[Ren]

Any division that just had a 0-16 team can't be the best at anything i don't care how good the other 3 teams supposedly are

So I guess the Lions are the NFC East version of the Commanders.

So I guess the Lions are the NFC East version of the Foreskins.

Yep!!!:laugh2:

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I think the Favre and Cutler acquisitions are gonna be busts IMO. Just a foolish prediction on my part.

Favre's going to be great in Minny for about 10 weeks of the regular season. Eventually, his old legs are going to give out and he's going to fall apart, no matter how much they try to protect him.

 

[Vintage]

Farve is a overrated joke,

Sounds like Eli....

Cutler already showed his ability to collapse under pressure,

Sounds like McNabb .....

and Rodgers has done nothing.

Rodgers put up good stats last year, but hasn't won anything yet.

Sounds like......


Hmmmm.....

I agree.

 

[FLcowboy]

Favre and Rodgers are going to do okay, but I don't see Cutler doing that much in Chicago, simply because I don't think Chicago is going to be that good.Cutler will give them something to build uipon, but it won't happen this year.

I think Rodgers will outplay Favre. Peterson may outplay all of the Packers though.

Favre = Manning (overrated - but both have a Superbowl)
Cutler = McNabb (both have shown their ability to collapse under pressure)
Rodgers = Romo (both have done nothing)

Edit: just saw reply #8...

Dante Culpepper=Jason Campbell?

Chicago will be good because Forte is an absolute beast.

 

[2much2soon]

So does this make Lupica the new Skip Bayless?

 

[mldardy]

Chicago will be good because Forte is an absolute beast.

They need a lot more than Forte. Those WR's they have are not very good and if Forte goes down they have nothing behind him esp. with Kevin Jones being out for the year.

 

[DallasDomination]

They have some good potential teams but none of those teams are as physical as the NFC east teams. IMO if you put the Commanders in that division they would be battling it out for first place.

 

[Cochese]

Ignore the WR's, they will pass to Olsen, Clark and Forte.

If Forte gets hurt, they are screwed, but not many teams can survive an injury to their best player.

 

[HoosierCowboy]

I watched a few minutes of the show, heard that and other statements and turned it off--idiots--and QBs don't make the NFC East the NFC East, it's the teams

How do you ignore the WR's? Depending on TE's that haven't shown they are capable of putting up big numbers is not the way to go. Also if you are going to use Cutler properly he will need dependable WR's or else they should have kept Orton.
