Dear Gregg Doyel: STFU already, man!

The guy’s post was filled with garbage and enough ammo to rip him apart. But to feel the need to throw in insulting the way he spells his name? as if he had a choice? wtf man. stick to the subject man, it’s why we like reading your posts.

For excellent service to football readers everywhere.

Seriously, thanks for giving him the ol’ STFU.

Could Manning have unlocked the mystery behind Revis Island? We’ll never know. More to the point, we’ll never care. This was a day to acknowledge, once and for all, that the Colts have a lot more weapons than Wayne. Anyone who says otherwise — like I unfortunately did last week — is a buffoon. Garcon put up 11 catches for 151 yards and a TD. Collie worked on a mixture of Coleman and Leonhard for seven catches for 123 yards and a touchdown.

So what if Reggie Wayne was held to just three catches for 55 yards and no touchdowns? Darrelle Revis may well have won that head-to-head battle — but the Colts won the AFC championship.

I actually don’t think he is necessarily wrong to say that the Colts steered away from Revis.

Revis is clearly a great corner and Lowery is obviously inferior in comparison, so why wouldn’t a team game plan to go after Lowery? Hell if I was coaching against the Jets, there’s no way I’d want my QB throwing in the Revis direction when the other side is wide open.

Reggie Wayne did get open a few times against Revis, but not nearly as much as Garcon and Collie did against the rest of the Jets defense. The idea that the Colts “steered clear of Revis island” en route to a Super Bowl is probably true. That doesn’t mean that they couldn’t have thrown there if they wanted to, just that they game planned against it.

If a guy threw for 375+ yards and 3TD’s /0 INTs against this Jets D that wasn’t named Peyton Manning, he’d be crowned the best QB in the league. This Peyton Manning hatred is getting old already. If after watching that game last night the best angle you can come up with is the Revis/Wayne story, it’s time for you to find a new line of work Doyel.

Like Florio, I rank Dolye of the 3Gs as one of the web’s insufferable halfwits, a man who think’s he’s playing with a full deck of knowledge but who in reality is 52 cards short, armed only with a Joker. So I’m not about to say that any little act outweights the perpetual foot-in-mouth disease he propogates as web commentary.

That said, like I was with Florio yesterday, I’m willing to downgrade him from 100% asshattery to 99.999%, based on something he owned up to:

This was a day to acknowledge, once and for all, that the Colts have a lot more weapons than Wayne. Anyone who says otherwise — like I unfortunately did last week — is a buffoon.

A single nod towards reality does not undo the universe of grandoise delusion that has passed for Doyle’s commentary on the Colts. And his mea culpa is insufficient; buffoonery doesn’t come close to describing it. Were he merely a buffoon, he’d be tolerable and possibly likeable, sort of like a younger, narcisstic Vic Ketchman instead of the “WTF?” generator he is currently. In spite of that, he’s managed to upgrade himself from complete and total idiocy to being merely mostly one. I’ll give him credit for that. True, it’s well overshadowed by his “Revis Island” bandwagoning, but that doesn’t change the fact that it’s still there.

Manning doesnt stay away from guys. He throws to who is open, it doesnt matter if Revis is on you or not, everyone knows your supposed to throw to teh open reciever. Manning doesnt pull Farves and throw into a dangerous area, he does whats best for the team. The guy is a douche.

Peyton did in fact seem aggravated at the question. And Greggggg did acknowledge that he was wrong in his previous week’s article. And he gave the Colts credit for picking on the newly minted started as the smart thing to do, because it was the smart thing to do, as Peyton even stated. Reggie did do a good job on Revis, and as you mentioned, he made Revis looked silly on the juke, but Revis was clearly avoided in favor of the other Jets corners. They is just no other way around it. Reggie was, essentially, the fourth option yesterday. Doyel may have a hard earned reputation as a hack, but not because of this article.

I’ll even go so far as to break it down by Offense/Defense. But the fact remains that the Jets – whose vaunted defense was rated first in the league coming into the game – got burned by the Colts for 30 points, 27 first downs, 377 passing yards, 101 yards rushing, 3 TD’s and 3 FG’s.

Who cares which individual defender was covering which receiver on any given play? Did I miss the part where they give a trophy to the CB who got thrown at the fewest times?

As for the question to Manning, it’s the sports equivalent of “when did you stop beating your wife?” “Gee, Peyton, Reggie Wayne only caught THREE passes today that EACH went for more than 15 yards. So the question is: are you terrified of Revis or just afraid of him?”

Perhaps Doyel should take Revis out for dinner or lunch to talk more about how Revis has Peyton Manning scared of him. Might I suggest Sunday, February7th? After all, I heard Revis is free that day.

But 55 yards ain’t nothing to sneeze at. Still a big help. Revis had a few passes completed on him versus other receivers as well. Still think he’s the best corner in the game, but he did give up a few completions.

media wanted NYJ for TV reaons and R Ryan hope they like the pro bowl the media its brainless

if FO or anyone else is going to look at all the times Revis was playing man against someone (not only Wayne) and see how he did. FO did it focusing on Revis v Wayne and all of the times Wayne was open in Week 16.

Off the top of my head it seems he allowed at least 5-6 catches most for more than 10 yards and thus important first downs.

I think the “douchiest douchebags” in the nest of “small” media douchebags are all those bloggers who owe Mr. Polian a GREAT BIG APOLOGY!

I knew the colts recievers are “pellet guns” comment was going to come back to bite him in the ass faster than you can say sports illustrated jinx!

Ive seen many a disrespectful columns written about peyton and the colts but calling the recievers pellet guns may be the tops of the all time IDIOT comments of any colts

and people bashing on polian and caldwell. I agree…that was too much for me to even read

One, I don’t care who you guys THINK Revis was on, or not on, throughout the game. He made a few tackles on other receivers, like Garcon or Collie, on plays where he wasn’t actually on them in coverage. I know it’s funny to say I’m an idiot — I think it’s fun to say you ‘re an idiot — but actually I’m friggin’ smart. Which brings me to my second thing:

That Lesser Antilles thing was brilliant. If it went over your head, I’m sorry. But that was damn good. I love me some me.

What a tool.

Is Peyton afraid of any cornerback? It’s ridiculous to even entertain such a notion. Doyel entertains me sometimes but yes I did watch the game on Tivo early Monday and my fellow Mormon Collie and Garcon were more wide open than Wayne. Thus, Gregg, you are wrong which you often are. I’m looking forward to an awesome shootout between the Colts and Saints. Ma the best offense win!
