Around SBN: Bill Stewart Dead From Apparent Heart Attack

Dominic Rhodes says the Jaguars are the Colts little brother, Rashean Mathis says "Who?"

The Jacksonville Jaguars just got done beating the Oakland Raiders, who talked plenty of smack before and during the game. Now, current Indianapolis Colts runningback, former UFL player, Dominic Rhodes chimed in with some good bulletin board material. "They're like they're our little brother right now. They want to be the big brother," said  Rhodes. Rhodes is familiar with the Jaguars, as he was with the Colts from 2001 to 2006 and again in 2008. "You get that thing going on, there's a lot of competition. They don't like us. We don't like them," Rhodes added.

Maybe Rhodes didn't pay too much attention to the NFL during his stint in the UFL with the Florida Tuskers, where he had a UFL record 547 rushing yards and a UFL record 10 rushing touchdowns. If Rhodes had been paying attention before the Colts signed him on December 7th, he'd know the Jaguars beat the Colts already this year, have a better record, and are in position to clinch the division with a win on Sunday. Right now, the Jaguars are the big brother.

Jaguars cornerback Rashean Mathis was asked about Dominic Rhodes calling the Jaguars the little brother today, to which Mathis responded, "Who is Dominic Rhodes?"

That was a priveless

response by Rashean; but I hope the Jags and the Colts will stop changing trashtalk-ish messeges with each other.

I have an observation; when asomebody saying something very mean or overconfident statement; he will be punished next time he or his team hit the field.

Do you really think

the players care about this type of thing ?

DG is the best we have and help is not on the way. I realize he's not perfect, but I feel a lot better about him at QB than I do the O-Line, DB's, or LB's ability to cover a TE.

I think they do to an extent

I’m certain that a comment doesn’t make them perform better, but it definitely fuels the fire I’d say.

Coach Crennel, if all of your Coors Lights can talk what happens when you open your fridge? There's generally "Hoopla" involved.

yeah they do

Or at least Tom Brady does. Remember a couple of years ago when that back up Steelers DB said something (rather mild) about the Patriots and Brady ran up and got in his face after a touchdown? Can prob find it on Youtube. Dude was fired up!

Haha that was Anthony Smith

As in our former starting safety. He guaranteed a win.

I remember it but that's not the point

Do you really think that Tom Brady wouldn’t have performed at that level had Anthony Smith not mouthed off ? Did Tom Brady want to win MORE because AS was mouthing off ?

I seriously doubt it.

Exactly???

Dominic Who????

He wouldnt even make our practice squad…..he’s frankly quite a bit down the list on the worst rush offense in the league….

Go back to the UFL……only baller’s have the right to trash talk. comical….

Yeah

I’m not really sure that Rhodes’ statement is all that derogatory. It’s fairly true: the Colts have been better than the Jaguars, and this year, the Jaguars are getting their shot to beat the team that has, historically, been tops in the division. Also, who doesn’t like beating up their older brother?

Any RB from their team should just shut up, it’s the same thing a guy from our secondary starting to trash talk. He’s just embarrasing himfeld.

Living in Orlando, I hope Rhodes goes back to the Tuskers, he was fun to watch

First thing I thought when I saw the quote was
