The Jets like signing running backs who used to be really good.

Heisenberg 04-17-2014 08:55 AM

Curtis Martin came to mind when I hear of the news

Exactly what I thought. If he has even half the burst he used to have, he brings a dimension to the Jets' running game that neither Ivory or Powell have. I have a good feeling about this signing in Mornhinweg's offense.

Edit: And to be fair, the Titans O-line is dogshit

Raiders traded Terrelle Pryor to Seahawks for an expected late round draft pick.

ClockShot 04-21-2014 08:27 PM

That's a head scratcher right there. Unless Tavaris Jackson is on his way out.

screech 04-21-2014 10:43 PM

I'm not that surprised he's out of Oakland, but I didn't expect Seattle to be his new home.

Cowboys/Niners week one. 0-1 start for Harbaugh whoooo

ClockShot 04-23-2014 09:15 PM

Broncos kick off the season with The War of 1812. (Broncos vs. Colts)

After that, the bulk of our opponents are either from the AFC West, AFC East, and NFC West. The Bengals are the odd team out.

Just............weird.

road doggy dogg 04-23-2014 11:46 PM

That's how every team's schedule is, and has been for a while. They'll play one NFC division, one AFC division, their own, and 2 strength of schedule games.

I don't know the specifics of the SoS games, but I know they play teams that finished in the same xth position in other divisions (just not sure which)

road doggy dogg 04-23-2014 11:47 PM

i.e. Broncos were 1st in their division so play Bengals (1st in AFC North) and Colts (1st in AFC South)

My Aunt lives in Nashville, she took me to the Ravens game there in 2011 and now its my turn to return the favor this year.

Droford 04-24-2014 12:58 AM

Ravens schedule
Week 1: Sunday, Sept. 7 – vs. Bengals, 1 p.m.
Week 2: Thursday, Sept. 11 – vs. Steelers, 8:25 (CBS)
Week 3: Sunday, Sept. 21 – at Browns, 1 p.m.
Week 4: Sunday, Sept. 28 – vs. Panthers, 1 p.m.
Week 5: Sunday, Oct. 5 – at Colts, 1 p.m.
Week 6: Sunday, Oct. 12 – at Buccaneers, 1 p.m.
Week 7: Sunday, Oct. 19 – vs. Falcons, 1 p.m.
Week 8: Sunday, Oct. 26 – at Bengals, 1 p.m.
Week 9: Sunday, Nov. 2 – at Steelers, 8:30 p.m. (NBC)
Week 10: Sunday, Nov. 9 – vs. Titans, 1 p.m.
Week 11: Sunday, Nov. 16 – BYE
Week 12: Monday, Nov. 24 – at Saints, 8:30 p.m. (ESPN)
Week 13: Sunday, Nov. 30 – vs. Chargers, 1 p.m.
Week 14: Sunday, Dec. 7 – at Dolphins, 1 p.m.
Week 15: Sunday, Dec. 14 – vs. Jaguars, 1 p.m.
Week 16: Sunday, Dec. 21 – at Texans, 1 p.m.
Week 17: Sunday, Dec. 28 – vs. Browns, 1 p.m.

Ravens get 5 of their 6 division games out of the way by week 9. Tough stretch in the middle week 5-12 with 5 road games out of 7 plus a bye. That late bye is good..their last 4 games are all winnable. Ravens have the easiest schedule of teams not in the AFC South, the toughest games they play are at the Saints and vs the Panthers.

road doggy dogg 04-24-2014 08:13 AM

That's an interested schedule (Ravens)... the past few years the league has backloaded most of the division games, so it's interesting to see them have so many early on and have so few "meaningful" games late in the season

Suree why not. Let me see who they draft first though :shifty:

screech 04-25-2014 08:59 AM

Lots of NFC East games in prime time.

DaveBrawl 04-25-2014 09:03 AM

Why does it seem like Denver plays in New England every season?

screech 04-25-2014 11:07 AM

Because this is the third year in a row they've played there during the season.

EDIT: I was curious and looked it up. Post seems dickish without me clarifying.

Evil Vito 04-27-2014 01:13 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Goodell said this week that the league would consider adding a FOURTH day to the NFL Draft. When I initially saw the headline I thought maybe that meant they'd add more rounds since there are a lot of guys who go undrafted who wind up being pretty good finds. But nope, it would still be 7 rounds.

I'm assuming that means that the 2nd round would get its own day as well. And then you'd do Rounds 3-4 and 5-7 in the final two days. Or Round 3 gets its own day with 4-7 on the final day.

Either way, that would be ridiculous - even more than it already is. At that point you may as well just stretch it out over a week and do a round a day.</font>

Crimson 04-27-2014 03:42 PM

Yea I mean just do a round a day ,might as well. They're getting carried away with stretching it

Droford 04-27-2014 10:00 PM

Isn't it 4 days already, thursday-sunday?

DrA 04-27-2014 10:12 PM

What, the draft hasn't even taken place yet? What a waste of time, making it out to be some big event

#1-norm-fan 04-30-2014 11:50 PM

Wait. Yeah. Hasn't the draft always been in April? I never checked the date and now before I know it, April's over and there is no draft. What's with this May bullshit?

Crimson 05-03-2014 12:28 PM

I hate these Cowboys going hard for Manziel rumors. Jerry needs to die.

Evil Vito 05-03-2014 12:44 PM

<font color=goldenrod>I actually dig the draft, but it was so much better as a Saturday and Sunday event. This Thursday and Friday bullshit sucks.</font>

Evil Vito 05-03-2014 12:52 PM

<font color=goldenrod>I really want the Giants to get Eli another weapon. Mike Evans would be an absolute dream, but it's hard to imagine him still being there at 12. I'd have a hard time seeing him slip past the Bucs at #7. I can't even remember the last time the Giants traded up in the first round...not sure they'd want to part with the picks necessary to leap ahead of Tampa.

I've long said I'd love to get Eric Ebron as he's a legitimate vertical threat who can help stabilize the TE position after years of it being a revolving door. But he's not known as a blocker, which the Giants value in their TEs. The Coughlin/Reese regime just doesn't seem to see the value in drafting a TE early.

So that leaves OL as the likely position, Taylor Lewan and Zack Martin being the most likely to still be on the board. Can't really go wrong there. Geoff Schwartz was a great pickup and Justin Pugh was good, but the other 3 projected starters have huge health red flags.</font>

IIRC, the draft used to be Early to mid April...now it's May.

Emperor Smeat 05-05-2014 06:45 PM

Rams and Vikings rumored to be in trade talks with the Vikings get Sam Bradford as the basis of the deal.

Vikings already stated they won't be keeping Christian Ponder after this year while the Rams are rumored to be drafting a QB for their 1st Round pick this year.

Crimson 05-05-2014 08:08 PM

^^ wow that'd be big

Good, that makes the chances of Clowney being available at #3 that much better then.
