I wouldn't mind if they sat him the first 3 games and the bye, heck even game 4 (week 5) vs. SF... and let it heal fully.

although, no one seems to know when the break happened, so he might only be a week away.
I wouldnt mind either. They'd lose 3 of those games.

WEEI, I missed the original "breaking news" in the morning and caught it on the 2nd show.

The reality is, if he does have a crack Belicheck will NEVER let you know.

It was reported by a member of the sports media in Boston, same pool of people (granted it was from 2 different organizations, but they are all the same) who said Matt Walsh had a videotape of the Rams walk through before Superbowl 36. I'll wait until somebody credible reports it, even if he does have a crack in the foot he'll probably still be able to play through it anyway - at least I would hope so.

Daunte Culpepper Retires From NFL

Posted Sep 4th 2008 11:39AM by Michael David Smith (author feed)
Filed under: Dolphins, Raiders, Vikings

Daunte Culpepper announced his retirement today after nine seasons in the NFL.

He expressed his frustrations with the NFL in his retirement letter:

When Free agency began this year, I had a new sense of excitement about continuing to rebuild my career in the same way that I had rebuilt my knee after my catastrophic injury in 2005. Unfortunately, what I found out was that the league did not share any of the optimism about me as an Unrestricted Free Agent that I expected. In fact, there was an overwhelming sense that there was no room for me among this year's group of quarterbacks; whether in a starting, competing or a back-up role. No matter what I did or said, there seemed to be a unified message from teams that I was not welcome to compete for one of the many jobs that were available at the quarterback position. It seems that the stance I took in both Minnesota and Miami regarding my rights as a person and player has followed me into Free Agency.


Culpepper was the Vikings' first-round draft pick in 1999 and spent seven seasons in Minnesota, playing in three Pro Bowls. He then played the 2006 season in Miami and the 2007 season in Oakland.


--------

It's pretty sad.. That knee injury completely fucked him.. So glad the Phins went after him instead of Brees..

Maybe if he had shown some kind of promise, they would have shared his optimism.

I'm excited for some football tonight. Just hoping for a good game. I don't have cable, so any good game I can see with the channels I've got is fine by me.

Nice half by the Giants. I would have liked to see another TD instead of one of the three FGs but otherwise playing well on both sides of the ball. The closing minutes were a bit disappointing.

Room for improvement from the Giants, but all in all a solid ball game. Lets hope Kiwi is okay, saw him go down on that last play.

Kiwi walked off.....Chris Samuels needs to be fined. There was no reason to even run that play outside of trying to injure someone tbh.

Anywho, would've liked to have seen more scoring from the offense, but a win's a win.

Redskins are weak.

Look at their preseason stats and check how many TD's they made going back.

They made no TD's for about 2 games I believe. Nothing but field goals.

I actually thought the Giants would win by a larger margin.

Good god, what a horribly coached game by Jim Zorn! One of the worst I've ever seen.

I thought Washington might be pretty bad judging from how abysmal they played in the final two preseason games but they just carried it right into the season. Run, run, pass, punt. Run, run, pass two yards short of the marker, punt. Run, run, pass two yards short of the marker, punt. Run, run, pass two yard short of the marker, punt. Not to mention how conservative they looked on D for the most part. I can't see them winning 4 games at this rate.

Giants shouldv'e swacked them..

I mean, they were dominant in the first half, then giving them good field position and then the penalty, allowing them to score right before the half..

Then they almost gave up the game in the second half, giving the Skins numerous opportunities to score and only holding onto a 9 point lead.. Zorn is a fucking idiot though.. ZERO clock management skills in that last 2 mins.. I mean, he never called a time out, he didn't kick a FG when well in range, with like 30 seconds left.. In that position, you always kick the FG, then the onsides.. Atleast then you get a shot at winning.. By going for it, he completely killed any chance they had of winning..

Retarded..

I didn't even get around to mentioning his horrible clock management. Madden and Michaels tried to chalk it up to inexperience. That can't be an excuse for the simple things. Clock management and play calling that is THAT horrific are just inexcusable. He's been around the game for a long time. It's not like they are coaching secrets you need to learn over time or something.

Yeah, the closest I've come to playing pro ball is playing Madden and I seemingly have 100% better clock management skills than Zorn..

Yeah the Redskins game plan was pretty bad. That west coast crap isn't going to work in the NFC East. That division is all about smash mouth football, and they showed none of that. Working their way down the field with short gains out wide can work in the first and third quarters when you can eat up clock and tire out the defense, but not when there's 2 minutes left on the clock and you have to score twice, or when you're 3rd and 15 and you go for a short 5 yard pass. They did it again and again it didn't make sense. Why would you pass to a guy well before the marker on 3rd and long?! They could be forgiven if it was a one off but they did it time and time again, like robots who weren't programmed to do anything else.

Shame really because this Redskins team has a lot of potential.

I was more so referring to #1-wwf-fans mention of the run, run, pass, punt bit. The clock management was terrible indeed. I feel bad for Campbell because of all the coaching systems he has been going through but you know what he is a Redskin, so fuck him.

Oh my bad. I just think they're going away from their strengths a bit. They should stick with what they did in their late surge last season that got them into the playoffs. Wouldn't it have made sense to build on that for this season? If they'd kept their composure and didn't press the panic button so soon agasint the Seahwks last year, they could have easily got to the divisional round.

I agree to an extent. Gibbs built a team that he wanted to coach, and the players they have now aren't totally suited to what Zorn seems to want to do. Still, we'll see.

So the solution to getting dominated at the line is to become predictable? Shotgun, quick pass... something. And on top of that, they actually protected much better as the game went along yet the play calling remained the same.

There is NO good reason to call a game like that. Period.
