I agree wholeheartedly. It's all coach-speak and buttering-up, if you ask me.

Yeah I mean there's such a thing as respecting your opponent but these guys sound like they have some kneepads ready for Sunday. It's sooooo over-the-top. Either they're intimidated or faking it like New England's always done.

I buy faking it over being intimidated.
