If they can't build a winning team with that stockpiling of picks, they'd be as well just disbanding the whole thing. Tbf to them, in 2018 they started to look like a team who can become a threat in this league, and they have the most important piece (a legitimate QB), but even still there's always a nagging feeling that they'll find a way to f**k everything up. They do have a competent GM now though, i don't think Dorsey will waste many picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GNU_Linux Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Forgot to do my sales pitch for The Lions: •Never been to a Superbowl •Never been to a NFC conference championship game •Last championship was pre-superbowl era •Haven't won a divisional title since 1993 •No post-season win since 1991 • First team to a have winless season in 16 game era & are only team to have two winless seasons (other was back in 1942) other than that its great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comrie Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Pick a team at random, with the exclusion of the Patriots. Awful shower of c***s. I follow the Bears and it's been mostly garbage with the odd good season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelmen Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 The lesson here is all teams have shit periods except the patriots who are proven cheating cnuts.We’ve all got a reason for picking the teams we have, mines was down to the Super Bowl being all we ever got in the UK and Elway and the broncos being in 2 of the first 3 I saw got me hooked.Maybe just watch a season and see who you fancy.

Silverton End Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Chose a team back when Ch4 brought it to TV screens. Pittsburgh Steelers for me, because their uniform is black, white & gold same as The Sons. My mate liked Celtic so followed NY Jets, other pal was Cincinnati Bengals due to him being a Dundee United fan. A bit daft but it gave reason to latching onto a team in a new sport.

diamond_for_life Posted February 10, 2019 Author Share Posted February 10, 2019 Thanks for all the posts and help was going to wait a few weeks and see but I’ve decided to go for it and with a wee bit of research I wanted a team that isn’t absolutely garbage but a team no where near the top. As a result I am now a fan of the Jacksonville Jaguars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost In The Humming Air Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Not sure I understand the hate for the Patriots. If your own chosen team had delivered the kind of success they have had over the past decade and more you would be loving it. They are a benchmark on how to deliver a winner. As someone who, many years ago, chose the then worst team in the league - Houston - I would have to caution against this approach. Not once did they get to a championship game then split for another city, changing their name in the process. Then a new team starts up and is every bit as frustrating! Chose a club that has some idea of what it is doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that does not explain their exceptional success. That has more to do with the ability to draft astutely, get the best out of more ordinary players, excellent coaching, strong team ethos and an iron will to win. Give me that any day over the complacent mediocrity that passes for ambition at a number of other clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
