That and I think it's 10 minutes instead of the usual 15 inbetween picks. Or was it like that last year too? I'm not sure. I like watching the draft though and running mocks in my head sometimes.

Last year was 10 minutes in the first round, second maybe even too.

Hopefully Fewell isn't a rush 4 drop 7 type of guy. Maybe he just did that because of personnel? I hate that type of defense.

They are also taking a look at Rhys Lloyd, a guy who was on the Panthers solely to do kickoffs. He's got a big leg, and I'd welcome him. Fuckin Tynes would always let the opposition start at the 35.</font>

Thomas Dimitroff is a GOD! Everything he touches has turned to gold. He really knows how to wheel and deal, and of course he is an absolute ACE when it comes to the draft.

He was able to deal Chris Houston to Detroit in exchange for a 6th round pick and also swapping picks with them in the 5th. Also a great job locking up Dunta Robinson and making the Falcons that much closer to becoming Super Bowl Contenders!

All Hail Thomas Dimitroff!

Splaya I know your a Lion fan, and all I have to say is good luck and get the Tylenol ready because Chris Houston has all the talent in the world but he just doesn't know how to put it all together on the field. If he would only learn to turn his head he could be a #1, but he refuses to do it. I'm glad the headache is off my team, but I wish him the best in Detroit.

I don't get why the Cardinals losing guys on defense is a big deal, it's not like they are a team built on sick defense like the Ravens or Jets. They gave up like 100 points in 2 playoff games, it's not like it can get much worse.

Losing Warner is gonna hurt them the most, dunno if Matt Leinart can step up.

Its more of a combination of things than just loosing players on defense. No Warner or Boldin means Cardinals just lost 2 of their best offense players and they never relied on their defense to pick up the slack so by loosing more defensive players, the game scores might worsen.

The Bears and Ravens are the opposite where the offense is average but their defense keeps the scores close enough to make up for the lack of quality in scoring.

Jesus Shuttlesworth
03-09-2010, 02:14 AM
I get what you are saying but what are these new guys gonna give up 115 points in 2 games now? I don't really think losses on D is that big of a deal, the production can be replaced. Kerry Rhodes already signed to help out in the defensive backfield and it's still pretty early in the off-season.

Losing Warner and Boldin is really going to hurt. AFC West is garbage though so who knows whats going to happen.

Losing Rolle is a blessing. For the past 2 years I've too many blown coverages. It looks like the Giants fans on here will know what I'm talking about. Losind Dansby is a bummer. It will be difficult to replace that kind of talent. But I feel the key players are DRC and Adrian Wilson. Losing one of them would definitly hurt. Like someone said though, nowhere to go but up.

I feel like I'm giving the keys to my car to my teenage son for the first time with this Leinart situation. Yeah, he's passed classes, got his license etc etc. But I'm still scared shitless.

And imcurious how Breaston will fare. And who they draft.

I dunno

Gonzo

Like I said before, I watched C.C. Brown and Aaron Rouse blow coverages all year, worst case, Rolle can do it while being paid more.

If the Giants can return to form on the defensive line, the defensive backs won't have to worry about looking like Pro-Bowlers.

Droford

Saw this on Deadspin:

Tony Washington, an o-line prospect from Division II Abilene Christian, impressed at the NFL Combine (http://www.nfl.com/combine/profiles/tony-washington?id=497069#tabs:tab-analysis). However, like many prospects before him, a crime committed in his teen years might derail him, only this one involves having sex with his sister. SportsFanLive's Jenna Laine has the exclusive (http://www.sportsfanlive.com/sflreports/). It seems that Washington, now 24, is a registered sex offender in Texas, and according to Laine's sources, it's because he was convicted in May 2003 of having consensual sex with his 15-year-old sister. It's a sad story. A former coach says Washington comes from a "dysfunctional" home and that he "skipped a phase, so to speak, in his emotional development." Scouts seem to have some doubts about Washington. And I'll admit, this part does give me pause:
The sister does not wish to speak publicly on the case, according to Washington's agent, who added that the siblings are now on good terms.
Wasn't that the problem in the first place? Boom. Roasted.


I bet he gets drafted.

Of course it is. I think it is more indicative of the area though than the team. I can't blame either team for going to Jersey, they made a bid over New York in the '70s.

I'd be interested to know the background of the Bills stadium. They seem like a fan base that would be willing to assume the costs of a stadium. I don't really think city area residents would be willing to do that with the Giants or Jets, unfortunately. The god damn PSLs they're putting on the seats at this new complex at the Meadowlands is going to price out the average fan, but that's the way that these things get built now a days.

You play 81 baseball games at home. You play at most 12 home games inculding preseason. Huge difference there.

Also the Yankees and the Mets one year in the 70's shared Shea stadium... Can't do that today, because of expansion since then.

Also as of right now there isn't a City that holds two NBA teams besides LA and they share a building.

I guess Woody Johnson, the owner of the Jets, was pissed the Giants are getting the first game in the new joint. Goodell said something about having the Jets play at home that weekend too and play on Monday night instead. I gotta say, I don't understand his anger, because as a fan I don't think I would mind either Sunday or Monday. On one hand, you get the first overall game, on the other, you have the first Monday night prime time game.

Forgot who it was on Around The Horn yesterday that gave the best solution to the Jets-Giants problem. He suggested the 1st game in the new stadium should have been Jets vs Giants since it would solve the problem of who gets to play there 1st since they would both be playing at the same time.

Only reason the old stadium never had this issue was because the Giants are older than the Jets by a good 40+ years in the NFL which explains why the stadium was named Giants stadium. Only fair to have Jets close the stadium since Giants opened the old stadium (even though no such thing as 2 NY/NJ teams in the 1920s).

I don't think New York's state government contributes anything to the teams. I may be wrong. I think most of the state's budget is allocated near the city, second Albany, and then everywhere else. The fucking state is in such a hole because of shitty state government in the first place.

I'm pretty sure two of the games each year are based on records or something like that. I don't think it would have been too hard to schedule. Either way I don't really care. In 20 years, is anyone going to care who had the first game in the new stadium? They shouldn't. Should Goodell have had both parties meet to discuss the plans? Maybe.

Plenty of players have had great careers and have been winners in college, doesn't always translate to success in the NFL. There's no denying he's done things the right way but having the "it" factor isn't just limited to Tim Tebow.

I do think he could be a decent short yardage back if he isn't playing QB. But a decent short yardage back is a late round draft pick at best, not a 2nd rounder. Michael Robinson from Penn State who was a similar QB in college has made that move recently. I don't think he is gonna go that route though, he is gonna be drafted as a QB.

I think Bills fans might be able to sleep easy and not worry about Tebow running the show. With Seattle landing Whitehurst in that deal you would think there going to shift the focus to either O line or possibly Spiller at there pick. So the only thing possible standing in front of Claussen being the new Buffalo savior are the Browns, and I question if they would take another ND QB.

NFL Playoff OT rules change in a 28-4 vote:

http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=5022064

If a team kicks a field goal in overtime the other team will get a chance on offense. If a team scores a touchdown in overtime, the game is over. I interpret it to work that if the second team ties with a field goal, the first overtime quarter continues until someone scores a touchdown. If after the first overtime the teams are still tied, they go to a second overtime quarter which is played under the old sudden death rules.

Seems rather silly. The story cites the increased accuracy of field goal kickers, and the change from the kickoff position being the 30 yard line, as opposed to the 35 yard line pre-1994, giving teams better field position in overtime.

I don't really know what I think about it yet. I suppose if it's applied and comes off being retarded they will just revert back to the original overtime format. They plan on discussing implementing this policy for the regular season during the owner's meetings in May.

They should just have kept OT the way it is.

Gonzo
03-23-2010, 06:15 PM
Anyways, after thinking about it, if they're going to make this change they should have done it like this:

Whether team A scores a field goal or touchdown, they must kick off to team B who then has a chance to match the score. If team B matches team A's score from their initial drive, the game then goes to sudden death rules.

I don't understand why they're limiting the chance at offense to a field goal. Just go all or nothing. I think the biggest detraction from the overtime rules are that one team may not get a chance at offense and that the game is decided on the flip of a coin (which I personally think is a bullshit excuse to lose a game.) Make it all or nothing with the point scoring (not just a field goal, include touchdowns) and you eliminate the biggest criticism, at least in my opinion.

Except that removes an important part of the game, the kickoff and return. That's what I don't like about college OT is that the points are pretty much already a given, hardly have to do anything to earn them. This way yeah, both teams are almost guaranteed a shot, but it's your teams ability that decides just how easy those points are to get.

True, but come on, fuck losing by a field goal. If I'm gonna lose I'd rather it be because their offense played better than my defense. Not because their kicker has a strong leg. And it's getting to the point where most teams don't need very far to go to get in FG range anymore.

Maybe it's just me, but losing by a first possession FG is the shittiest way possible to end a game.

The whole point of the sudden death rule was to stop games from ending in a tie, or the frequency of them at least. I've never had a problem with the rule. You lost the coin toss, play some defense and get the ball. Or, win the game in the 4 quarters allotted in regulation.

Teams do things in overtime they would never do during a regular game unless they were in the situation at the end of a half/game because of the game clock.

OT couldn't be an extra full quarter or even half quarter. Why? It'd take too long. A regular 4Q game often will run over the usual time given to it by CBS/FOX, let alone a game that had to play one or more extra quarters. And even if it's a shorter OT period wouldn't mean anything. The last 2 minutes of a half are the longest part of a game.

Plus, the NFLPA would never agree to it because, as someone else said, it gives the players more time to be injured. Bullshit to me, you make hundreds of thousands to millions and millions of dollars, just play the fucking game I play for free and get hurt doing at my own expense.

This should make for a great Hard Knocks!

The Jets are going Hollywood.

The Jets will be the subject of the popular HBO series "Hard Knocks," which chronicles the behind-the-scenes lives of players on an NFL team as they go through training camp, the Daily News confirmed Wednesday.

The team released a statement Wednesday trumpeting a "major media announcement" at noon Thursday at their training facility in Florham Park, featuring owner Woody Johnson, GM Mike Tannenbaum and coach Rex Ryan.

The series is sure to produce great theater for HBO viewers, considering the characters on the Jets, including Ryan, probably the most colorful coach in the NFL and marquee quarterback Mark Sanchez, lockdown cornerback Darrelle Revis and future Hall of Fame running back LaDainian Tomlinson.

It's likely the Jets will return to Cortland in upstate New York for camp, which begins in late July.

As was first reported in the Daily News in January, the Jets were the lead candidate for the show. HBO sports boss Ross Greenburg and Tannenbaum had discussed the possibility throughout the 2009 season.

HBO would not comment on Tuesday, but at the recent Manny Pacquiao-Joshua Clottey fight at Cowboy Stadium in Arlington, Texas, Greenburg - a longtime Jets fan - was joined at ringside by Jets owner Woody Johnson and Tannenbaum.

This represents a dramatic change in philosophy for the Jets, who now fancy themselves as a media-friendly organization. Two years ago, under Eric Mangini, they were a clandestine franchise that never would have allowed cameras into their inner sanctum.

To be honest, it doesn't matter if Roethlisberger is guilty or not. The guy has put himself in situations where he is at least accused of wrong doing. The public perception is pretty much reality and I imagine that the perception of him is poor after these two incidents.

It doesn't shock me that Goodell hasn't done anything yet. He was all over Pacman's ass, but Roethlisberger is the face of the Steelers. We wouldn't want to suspend a player of that magnitude, would we?

I heard on the radio today that the security feed of the night of the alleged assault was copied over by the club by more recent footage. I recall on Mike & Mike that the security tapes copied over on a weekly basis or something of that nature. If they don't have any video, it is all basically "he said, she said" and I don't see how any DA in the country could get a conviction, guilty or not. On top of that, the girl was 20, had a fake ID confiscated in the same establishment weeks prior to this incident, and was intoxicated over a .20 BAC.

Roethlisberger should count his lucky charms on this one.

I hope Tebow ends up being one of the best Quarterbacks of this Era, just so everyone can eat a big pile of crow.

Shut the fuck up - nobody has seen him play IN THE NFL YET. Pretty sure that Ryan Leaf had all the tools to be a hall of famer. Look how that panned out. What about Jeff George? Wasn't he supposed to set the league on fire?

Now consider this. Nobody in their right mind would have thought Tom Brady had the tools to be the quarterback that he is. While Tebow may not have the arm strength or accuracy that Brady does, I'm pretty sure his work ethic is there.

Or maybe I'm an asshole. After all, I thought that Mike Cherry was the future of the Giants for a few seasons.

I think I've said it before, and maybe it's just me, but with all the fame and fortune that comes with being a professional athlete, I would never leave my home. Ever.

The only places I would be are practice, team functions, or home. If I had a family I guess I would do stuff with them, but these guys who aren't hitched who go out and party it up and everything always find trouble. I suppose it's the lifestyle, and they're entitled to it blah blah blah. We all know their position. I don't know if it's the twenty four hour seven day a week news coverage, but it just seems that professional athletes are in trouble left and right.

There are like 2-3 guys per week, it seems, in trouble with the law in the NFL.

I don't know if you meant me, but I don't excuse these guys. They're 100% to blame.

Look at Roethlisberger, guilty or not, this guy will probably always have these accusations hanging over him during his playing career. All over players just poorly represent themselves, their teams, and the league.

Well the Cowboys are releasing Flozell and Ken Hamlin today. I guess for sure now they will be drafting a tackle and a safety in the first 2 rounds. Hamlin after getting that contract was never affective on defense, and Flozell is like a big dumb dog that never corrects mistakes.

McNabb to D.C. I guess if Snyder wants it, he gets it.

Doesn't really matter. Like, 90% of players in any sport will play incredibly against their old teams. And he's not that bad off in WAS either, just has no line. Not that it matters since he dominates when under pressure anyway

Davis was all for it, McNabb and apparently Reid weren't. McNabb obviously didn't want to play somewhere as terrible as Oakland and Reid didn't want to send McNabb somewhere he didn't want to be. Thus no OAK or BUF

Fair enough. Even though 90% is kind of high. Either way totally irrelevant here.

More importantly Donvan McNabb era is now over. That's very sad :(

Heros Welcome

Mcnabb stays in the division! I do expect him to make Philly pay BIG TIME! Good thing for the skins though is that they def go OL round 1 and will probably land Russell Okung to play the LT spot for them. Further rebuilding there OL....

OR they could try and find someone to drop back a few picks, and look to take someone like Bryan Bulaga or Trent Williams while regaining a pick in round 2. Either way I like this deal for the Skins. I think Donavon has got a lot of game left in him and will make an immediate impact.

FearedSanctity
04-04-2010, 08:51 PM
Making up a high BS percentage was faster than typing "a really high amount of". But regardless, there's no denying McNabb still has plenty left in him, almost instantly making the decision to keep him in the division a terrible idea. Those decent WRs Washington already had instantly get a lot better from now having a QB that can hit them when they're open.

That's a good move for the Redskins though probably I think cause McNabb is so good just hope for them it doesn't turn into their typical "alienated big player" situation but I dunno.

Johnny Vegas

I cannot fucking believe this horseshit. The Eagles were building this team around Kolb the whole time. Bunch of sneaky fucks. It's funny that it took them this long to get some nice additions to the offense and two years later, he's gone. I just hope Donovan doesn't rape us too bad this season. Kolb has some large shoes to fill. The pressure is on because don't think for one second that Vick wouldn't mind being a starter again.

I swear when i heard the news, i looked just like my avatar.
