chris carter says the titans are better than the skins.

I assume you guys have read the Deadspin articles about Cris Carter threatening to beat the crap out of bloggers because one guy wrote what an a-hole he is, and every blogger he meets he assumes is that guy? After that whole thing where he was competing with Art for a HoF spot and wrote in his Yahoo column that Art didn't deserve to make it, I pretty much decided I never needed to hear from that egomaniac again.

And sure, the Titans are a strong defensive team, no doubt. But let's put it in perspective: Kerry Collins running that offense is like Mark Brunell running our offense a few years ago when our D was dominating. Get back to me in 6 weeks and we'll see if the defense can keep bailing them out on a weekly basis. Right now I think we are a more balanced team and a team that has more ways to beat an opponent.

I rather have MB than Kerry Collins and if Kerry gets hurt who backs him up? None other than Vince Young, no thanks!! I doubt the Titans could beat the Cowboys or Eagles.

Let's put this in perspective Art Monk was the best reciever on the redskins and probly best blocking recivever in the nfl. And a part of 3 superbowl teams while all carter did was see the toiletbowl after he got drunk and beat his wife what a douche if he reads this I'll fight that faggot fuck.

Cris Carter and Art Monks were both amazing WRs. Both deserving of the HoF. Honestly, the Titans may be better than the skins. Hard to say. Both teams are playing great football right now.

Well maybe we'll have the advantage over the Titans if we met them in the SB. Didn't our OC coach with Fisher last year?

johnerotten · 10-06-2008, 08:22 PM

i thought the guy was way overated as a wr.buddy ryan cut him for christ sakes.

I doubt the Titans are as good as the Skins but everyone has a right to their opinion. A lot of these guys have their own personal bias so I don't put much stock in what they say anyway. Some of these guys are there because they are popular or funny or controversial, not because they are smart or articulate. ( Emmitt Smith)

Chris Carter is a jerk.

That said, Tennessee's opponents have a combined record of 5-17, which is close to, if not dead last as far as strength of schedule. Two of their wins are over winless teams (Cincy and Houston). 3 of their wins are at home.

Our opponents have a combined record of 15-8, good for toughest in the league. We're 2-1 on the road, and have played 1 less home game thus far.

Yes, Tennessee's defense is fantastic, and their running game is very good, but they struggle to put up points big time. I don't think they are better than us, but they currently have a better record, so the argument can be made I guess.

Frankly I don't like all the press we're getting. I much prefer being an underdog and nobody thinking we're any good. I hate hype. Chris Carter is just one of thousands of talking heads. Good for him for having an opinion.

EDIT: On a side note, the other team being talked about as top three in the league, the Giants, have played opponents with a combined record 5-14. Other than the Skins, their opponents are 1-13. Pathetic.

This is so not a big deal. So he says he thinks the Titans are better than the Redskins. It's not like he's saying he thinks the Lions are better.

I like how you buried the part about Key saying he thought the Redskins were the 2nd best team in the NFL. Key (who I have become a big fan of this past year) has been high on the Skins lately.

Chris Carter has been anti Skins, for a while. I thought it was because he did not like Gibbs, but maybe he just does not like the skins.
