I can't stand Jamie Dukes and as much as I love Ray this fat clown treats Ray as if he's still the best player in football now, he's not.

Well...this thread has taken a splendid turn.

Thanks, I know Joe needs to take care of business on the field but this is a good sign and even Kevin Van Valkenburg (Baltimore Sun writer) said all the reporters were stunned by how Joe carried himself today. This kind of reminds me of when Tiki Barber took shots at Eli Manning prior to the 2007 season and Eli fought back and of course the Giants won the SuperBowl. Joe is finally standing up for himself and hopefully this new found attitude carries over on to the field. Here's KVV's blog about Joe:

I just hope that Cam believes it.

So are you saying that since Joe is fighting back and standing up for himself, the Giants will win the Super Bowl???

**Agent of Oblivion** · 07-27-2011, 08:49 PM

I don't think Joe will ever be the kind of guy to get in somebody's face and talk trash, but that's fine with me. Actions speak louder than words, or so they say.

No and I'm not saying Eli standing up for himself was the main reason for the Giants winning the Superbowl but his new attitude helped in sparking the team. Hopefully Joe having more swagger can have a carry over effect on the team and eventually put them in position for a SuperBowl run.

SR-
No problem, mon ami, just funnin' ya!

I completely agree that Flacco with a little more swagger would be a good thing.

Well said Julius.

**MachineJerk** · 07-27-2011, 09:34 PM

I've never understood why some people are so intent on seeing "fire" from Joe to make them feel....what? I don't know?

Many ways to lead. But you can't lead from a fabricated place.

I just saw the spot on NFLN. I know they were dogging Joe a little but their point is valid. His stats in the playoffs are not very good at all. He has to step up when the stakes are highest and I think he will.

Tony Romo is a way bigger playoff choker yet they don't get on his case
