You know who's awesome, tho?  Brandon fucking Jacobs.  It's a shame he can't stay healthy or he might rush for 3000 yards a season or something distinguished mentally-challenged.  Anyone catch the hit he put on Laron Landry earlier?  WHAM.  Ran right THROUGH a big, tough safety on a 17 yard gain.

I can't believe I took San Diego winning by 9.5 points. Since they weren't going to cover even if they won at the end of the game, I'm thrilled they lost at the last second.  :lol

This is disastrous news for me in my money league, which is a dynasty fantasy league.  We get to keep up to 10 players from last year's roster, and I had Brady, Moss and Welker.  Well, Moss will still probably be good but Welker will probably suck now.  And since we start 2 QBs, my qb situation is now Old Man Favre, Jay Cutler and Brody Croyle- who also got hurt and sucks anyway.  So twice this year I will have to start Brody Croyle during bye weeks.  If he's even the starter.

In our league, I've got Brett BAH GAWD FAV-RUH, Jay Cutler and Croyle.  So I'm not absolutely fucked except on bye weeks when I'll need to start Croyle.  And unfortunately our free agent pick ups are restricted based on how we did the previous week, and since I still might win my game despite only having gotten 3 points out of Brady I'm not gonna get first crack on Cassell.

I know right?  I'm gonna find out first hand next week when I go to the Panthers home opener against the Bears.  I started getting worried about the game once I realized Rex wasn't going to start the season as the starter.  I had no doubt he'd get benched but hoped he could make it to at least Week 2.  Not that Orton is the next Manning, but he won't give us the two freebies that you could count on from Rex.
Title: Re: Tight Ends and penetrating the line: NFL 2008, EB style
Post by: Phoenix Dark on September 08, 2008, 03:27:10 PM
If Orton can minimize mistakes and  get 100-150 yards a game the Bears will do well. All he has to do is ensure the defense gets proper rest (if yesterday is any indication that'll be easy considering how sharp the run game was) and don't do anything rextarded

One thing the Panthers have going for them is kickoff specialist Rhys Lloyd.  Yesterday he had 3 or 4 touchbacks and one actually went through the uprights.  Devin Hester might be minimalized at least on kickoffs.

Still no Steve Smith next week though  :'(

Before this morning I was thinking maybe this Vince Young thing was overblown, but then when his mom starts calling the media with this "You leave my boy alone, you're hurting his feelings and now he doesn't want to play football." Yikes, that ain't good, no matter how you look at it. I was listening to the Michael Irvin Show this morning and Irvin was saying that his family just needs to back off, go back to Houston, and let Young do his own thing. He gets the crap beat out of him on the football field, then he comes home and can't blow off any steam because his family all there in his face. Then he goes to his friend's house to relax, leaves his cellphone behind so nobody can find him, and his mom calls the cops. No wonder the guy's turning into a head case.

Vince Young and Matt Leinart are no Jay Cutler!  SEC > all.  It's ridiculous to watch Cutler throwing out of the pocket- he's the most accurate QB out of the pocket since he got into the league.  Now that he's got his diabetes under control, he's going to come out and lead my fantasy team to it's much deserved championship.

I dunno, it depends on if you lump "mentality" into the "tools" set.  If so then both guys are seriously deficient.  Leinart is just a pussy and Vince refuses to try and learn how to throw properly- he's like the Andruw Jones of football.  Great natural talent but he's unwilling to change what needs changing to make the next step.

Hey guys, did you know that the Dallas Cowboys are the greatest team ever? So great that they're the most valuable football team in the universe.

Since they're worth $1.61 billion according to Forbes magazine, why is the city of Arlington giving them hundreds of millions of dollars to help build a new stadium?

Note: this is a rhetorical question.

now we get dumpster raped by Martz AND O'Sullivan today. Seriously, what the fuck. Perhaps losing this game will help in the long run. If we had won Millen/Rod/Kitna/etc would be championing this temporary bandaid for two weeks. Now we get to talk about how shitty things are for two weeks.

Both quarterbacks (Rodgers and O'Sullivan) have been doing good though.

O'Sullivan needs to have more pocket presence and that internal doom clock that tells you when to kill a ball out of bounds. Hey may still turn out pretty okay. His ability to throw a good ball on the run and from strange spots is pretty impressive.

I think Rodgers has been solid, but will suffer on his throws if his shoulder is iffy.

I'm not too sure how to feel about this Falcons team.  For one thing, we've already won as many games as we did last year.  For another, we won today by rallying with 11 seconds left.  It's pretty insane.  I guess things will continue to go great until we find out that Matt Ryan is the ringleader of a siamese fighting fish ring.

Also- Federwang, I wouldn't be bragging on your Redskins too much.  You just lost to the Rams.  The Rams!  They're the worst team in the damn league.

We'll get 'em next time. If there's nothing you guys need to talk about, I'll let you get out of here. Don't forget we have a game next week, so try to make it to the field at least 30 minutes early.

I wasn't bragging.  I'm not sure where you got it.  And the Rams aren't the worst team in the league - that's either the Seahawks or the Bungles (we get to play both!).  It was a trap game.  New head coach and a bye week to prepare; Haslett has always given the 'Skins fits and they were caught looking ahead of the game.

I've lost all respect for Young. At one point I defended him relentlessly; people were really attacking him hard during/after the draft, and even his success has been met with jeers. But I'm getting the impression that this guy isn't a winner, he has no heart, and he won't be a great future QB. It sounds like he's not learning anything fron this experience. He doesn't get better year to year, which either suggests he sucks or just doesn't push himself hard enough, mentally (learning plays) or physically (mechanics)

Nope, sorry, the worst team is definitely the Rams. I promise they are the worst team. The only game in which they were fucking close to winning was against the Redskins and they pulled off the upset. At least Cincinnati played a few games close and the Seahawks are just fucked due to injuries.

3rd Down Conversions

Seattle: 1-5
Tampa Bay 5-8


I know they've got a ton of injuries but holy fucking christ.

Fuck Seattle/Washington State sucks when it comes to sports.  We have the worst team in the NFL, the worst baseball team in MLB with absolutely no hope of it turning around anytime soon thanks to their fuckballs insane payroll, the Sonics moved to freakin' Oklahoma City, and the University of Washington would be sporting the worst college football team around if it weren't for the boys on the otherside of the state at WSU who currently possess the worst team ever assembled in the history of the sport.  Honestly, I'm simply amazed that the Cougs only lost by 69 points on Saturday.  USC must've started taking a knee in the middle of the 3rd quarter.

Honestly, with the way the Cardinals have been playing that's about as close to a first round bye as you can get without actually, you know, having a first round bye.

I like this Falcons team.  More importantly, I like the people in CONTROL of the team.  Dimitrioff and Smith are like mana from heaven after years of overrated McKay and underachievers Mora and Petrino.  I have a feeling we'll be competitive for years to come, and next year we'll finally have back to back winning seasons.  Even the Lions have done that before.

Why would you draft a LT when you have an even more gaping hole at QB during a year with at least two legitimate #1 QBs?  Rams will get 'Dre at #2.  There are a few other VERY solid LTs they will be able to grab one of them at 20 while still getting the top QB and making your fans happy.  The drop off from the top 2 QBs to #3 is MUCH higher than the drop off from the top 2 tackles to 3-5.

Stafford doesn't always make the best decisions, but he's got the tools of an NFL QB and should develop well as long as he has a good mentor.  He's your number one pick.

What's the point in paying a QB a bunch of money to get the shit knocked out of him all season. We don't have an offensive line. I'm not sold on any of the QBs. Yea Stafford looks better than the rest but imo the QB doesn't solve anything.

Rebuild the OL with Smith and pray Maualuga is still on the board at #20 which will go a long way towards rebuilding the defense.

And next year draft God's QB :shh

There's one legitimate #1 QB in this year's draft.  There are 5 or so offensive linemen that are worthy of first round picks.  Why in the world would you pass on the QB when you can get an offensive lineman who's almost as good at #20.  Unless you think Orlovsky is the answer.

How much did you watch Stafford?  Being an Auburn alum married to an Alabama alum, I watch a TON of SEC football.  Stafford has all the tools in the world.  Andre Smith is great, too, but I think he's a tad overrated as a pass blocker.  No matter who you pick, you're going to be giving them a ton of money.

And it will be the first time in his entire career that Calvin Johnson actually had a legitimate quarterback throwing to him.  He was one of the best college receivers of all-time and he had Reggie Motherfucking Ball throwing to him.  Imagine if he had an actual living, breathing quarterback?

I've been DYING to see what Calvin Johnson could do with an NFL level QB, the guy had three of the most amazing catches I've ever seen and they just happened to come in the same game (NC State.)  I was at the Clemson game where Johnson dragged us off the mat with 3 TDs in the last 5 minutes.

I never imagined Johnson would be going into his third year before I got to see him play with an NFL Qb though  :lol

Jon Kita wasn't bad, not sure why he got benched last year, but they barely played together at all.

Stafford needs at least a couple years holding a clipboard before he'll be NFL ready. If I was Detroit, maybe trade down to get more solid players and wait until next year when better quarterbacks are available. They have a lot of holes they can fill.

Bradford, Tebow, and McCoy aren't any better than Stafford.  Who in the hell else would they rather have over Stafford?  I agree that he needs a year on the sidelines, but so would the other three.

I'm not a huge Stafford fan either but he'd very clearly be a step up from what Detroit has.  He's got a killer arm but he's a moron.  Of course he went to Georgia so that goes without saying...

Sam Bradford is by far more NFL ready than Tebow, McCoy or Stafford. He just needs to stay in college and put on some more muscle.

Colt McCoy will have a lot more starts, a lot more passes thrown and much better stats than Stafford by the time he is done. He needs to work on learning when to give up on a play and throw it away or he won't last long in the NFL but other than that he also appears to already be more NFL ready than Stafford.

Stafford and Sanchez are both project players at this point. You draft them and maybe in 2-3 years they will turn out to be worth it. An 0-16 team needs immediate improvement.

How is Bradford more NFL-ready when he doesn't have the size, doesn't have the arm, and doesn't play in an offense that's remotely like an NFL offense?  Also, don't forget that he rarely plays against good defenses.

He'll get the size by staying in college and bulking up. He has a good NFL arm. He doesn't have a rocket but he is very accurate. What college QB does play in an NFL offense?

Stafford has a rocket but hey, so does JaMarcus Russell.

Mark Sanchez and John Parker Wilson, off the top of my head, both run pro-style offenses.  Georgia's offense is a mixture of NFL and spread sets, so he's under center a lot more than Bradford.  And he can make a lot more throws than JaMarcus Russell ever could.  How often did you actually watch Georgia?  Don't you live in Denver or soemthing?

Also, even if Bradford is better, there's no guarantee that the Lions would be able to get him next year unless they have the number one pick again.

What I should have said was which of the upcoming QB's play in a pro offense. I don't think any of the ones mentioned here do. Sanchez is just like Stafford, a project player years away from being NFL ready. John Parker Wilson.. is he even a top 10 QB prospect? These guys who didn't play in pro offenses are more NFL ready than guys who played in "pro offenses". I live in Texas. How often did you get to see Bradford?

Yeah there's no guarantee Detroit finishes worst in the league again but that doesn't mean they should waste a #1 pick on a guy just because he is there. The QB crop this year is pretty weak but it gets very good next year. They don't have to finish with the #1 pick to grab a good guy next season.

Oklahoma was on national TV every week so I got to see him at least 6 or 7 times this year, and he was great until he had to play a good defense.  JPW jumped to mind because I live in Alabama, not because he's a legitimate pro prospect.  Who would you rather take with the #1 pick?  An offensive lineman?  The lineman you'll get at 20 will be nearly as good.  Any QB you get at 20 is not even close.

If I was Detroit I would trade down and stock up on more picks. You can trade down, stay in the top 10, pick up a 2nd rounder and maybe more, and still grab a great player. You could even trade down with your pick from Dallas and still get quality players with your 2nd rounders.

Lions allowed by far the most points in the NFL last year. They need to cleanse as much of that 0-16 stink off of them that they can and rebuild. The best way to rebuild is through the draft and the more picks the better.

Also, why down on picking lineman? If you can't find a trade and that's your biggest need, why not? 4 linemen went in the top 15 last year and they all turned out pretty solid. Particularly Ryan Clady  :tophat

I love picking lineman, but not over a potential stud starting QB.  The Rams have the second pick and would be insane to pick up anyone but a LT (both Oher and Smith are good picks here).  Don't forget that sometimes teams just don't want the #1 pick and all of the drama/money that comes with it.  Who else this year has the draft picks and is willing to give them up for the #1 pick?  I'm sure not many teams are willing to do that.  The Lions are already doing well with 2 1sts, 1 2nd, and 2 3rds, so it's not like they can't follow your advice and still get the #1 QB.

The Bengals, Jags, Packers and Rams could all use good linemen. Almost everyone in the top 15 could use a great defensive lineman as well and there are a couple great guys on the top of the draft. Niners could trade up for a QB, as could the Seahawks potentially, especially since all of these guys aren't year 1 or year 2 starters. They will more likely want one of the top WR's, and so will the Jags and Raiders. There are always possibilities. Look at what Jacksonville did last year.

Out of the top 10, only the Lions and Niners really have true needs at QB. That leaves 8 spots they could move and still grab Sanchez or Stafford. Unless of course someone else trades up after they trade down. And if that happens, oh well. Are they going to be any good this year anyway? No. And now maybe they can get a superior QB in McCoy or Bradford.

You're the only person I've heard that thinks McCoy is superior to Stafford as an NFL prospect.  Also, the Chiefs have a pretty big glaring need at QB unless they think Thigpen showed enough during the second half for him to be the man.  Brodie sure as hell isn't the answer.
Title: Re: Tight Ends and penetrating the line: Matt Millen Memorial NFL 2008 Thread
Post by: Andowsky on January 15, 2009, 03:49:55 PM
Maybe McCoy is a little behind Stafford right now, maybe not. But he's thrown a hell of a lot more passes and will only get more snaps next year while Stafford holds a clipboard for someone. My point is by the time McCoy goes to the NFL, he will be a superior QB than Stafford is now.

I think Chiefs pass on a QB because of Thigpen. The guy threw 18 touchdowns to 12 INTs and was also a great playmaker with his feet. If they can shore up his protection and maybe give him another weapon, he might turn out alright. If not, there are lots of QB's coming next year.

Zero: Alex Smith is gone from SF unless he is willing to take a sizeable pay cut. And rather than do that, I think he would want a fresh start somewhere else. He's on the books for almost 10,000,000 this year IIRC.

The problem with picking a QB is that if we do, most of our picks will have to be offensive minded after that. They'll need to get another WR and OL for him to grow with, and more importantly to give him more options than strictly throwing to Johnson. At the end of the day the offense MIGHT be better but you're going to still have no defense. We can't expect free agents to come here, so the draft has to address the defense.

Building up the OL and defense will make the entire team better. A few good OL will keep our current QBs alive; Orlowsky isn't great, but if given time and weapons he can do well.

QB is too much of a crap shoot, but maybe I'm biased after the Harrington disaster. I certainly don't want Sanchez. Good QB but how many junior QBs in the last few years have done anything in the NFL? IIRC it's about 2 out of the last 11.

I never really thought so because most of their fans are born and bred there.  Same with Philly.  It's not like any LA or NY-based team with the bandwagon fans or a new money city like Phoenix where there's no old school fan base in sight.

You really think so? They seem to be just like Dallas to me, tons of fans all across the country. A lot of bandwagon fans because they have 5 Super Bowls and are always, always competitive.

Are you kidding?! Pittsburgh has about as many bandwagon fans as the Cowboys or the Niners.

Yeah, you're insane, dude.

I've lived on both coasts and the two things they had in common were cockroaches and Steelers fans.  They're like a fucking disease.

Nope!  To be fair, I worked at a GameStop on the West Coast and EB Games on the East Coast.

Still, fucking Steelers fans - they're not as bad as Dallas fans, but they're getting there.  They're pretty insufferable, as well.  I want to brick in all their mouths!

It's not hard to see Steelers have a lot of annoying fans; don't need to work retail across the country to know that. Same with Patriots fans although I bet everyone can agree they're more annoying than Steelers fans

Patriots fans are not as widespread as Steelers fans, though.  For the most part, they stay within the confines of New England.  Sure, you'll find a few here and there - as you would with any NFL team.  But Steelers fans have entire bars on the Left Coast dedicated to their home team.

I feel pretty confident saying there are more Steelers and Cowboys fans throughout the continental United States than any other professional team.

I'd rather the Niners take a pass rusher or a big time WR. The offense is going to be Frank Gore heavy next season and having a deep threat on play action would mean a lot.

I think they need another RB too. Gore barely survives a 300 carry season and Foster is ok, but they are thin at that position.

The draft is pretty shitty this year. No one up there really excites me.

People are projecting the Browns to take either Aaron Curry (Wake) or Rey Maualaga (USC). Both are okay .. but not top 5 picks.

I'm sure he'll be better than Russel (lol) at least early on. Russel could still turn out to be a good QB, but he's been a disaster so far.

Problem is that he has no OL to help him, and no defense. Taking a QB guarantees we'll have to take more offensive players now. Taking Curry at #1 and an offensive linemen at #20 (if Maualaga isn't on the board) would actually help the dam team.

The NFL has finally reached the absurdity of the NBA 15 years ago in the draft.  Anyone remember Glenn Robinson getting $100 mil before he ever suited up?  The Rookie Salary Cap is closing in on the NFL.

Stafford's gonna need $41 mil to live in Detroit, he needs to build his own municipality there.  Or take a private jet to each practice from Chicago.

I don't think anyone in this draft is truly a team changer. Maybe the two QBs will end up being successful, but both of them are going into situation where the fans won't give them much of a honeymoon. Especially Stafford and his contract in a city that has economically imploded. Dude needs to go buy himself an '87 Cavalier or some similar piece of shit for his transportation.

When I saw who the Raiders' picked I didn't realize they had passed on STDtree to pick him.

Browns had an awful draft thus far. They got a couple of Mangini boys that the new regime was going to weed out anyways, then wasted their 2nd round picks on Robiski (LOL), another mediocre WR and a DE from Hawaii (you know, the mecca of defensive linemen).

Oh .. then they picked a center with their first pick. When they had a bunch of defensive players on the board and one of the worst defenses in the league last year.

Not that it really matters, it's a pretty weak draft overall (especially at the skill positions). Sanchez is the only guy I think has the chance to be a superstar. Percy from Florida will have a good year or two, but will break down pretty quickly (like most pure speed guys do).

I really liked what Seattle did over the weekend, especially when they picked up Denver's 2010 first which may very well be in the top 10 - hello new franchise QB.  Curry and Unger will more than likely be starters and they got a burner with Deon Butler.  According to the draft charts they got some good value in the later rounds too but you just never know how that shit will develop.

Taking away the franchise tag away from Hill threw me for a loop initially but after thinking about it, I suppose it's for the best.  You can't have that much freakin' guaranteed money invested in your linebackers when there's other needs to address like the secondary.  Even if they're able to resign him it'll at least be less per year than the 8 million he would've been making if he signed the tender which allows the Hawks to go out and pick up some other free agents like Ken Lucas or maybe even Derrick Brooks for a one year stint.  Tatupu, Curry, and D.D. Lewis is fine with me and if he goes the Seahawks get a 3rd round compensatory pick.  It's all good.

I'm pretty happy with the 49ers draft. That second and a fourth was traded for Carolina's first round pick next year. All it takes is a Delhomme injury an it's a top 10 pick. :lol

I think Coleman and Elam are average, if not good players. What's the deal with Shaun Rogers? Is he happy? Or what..
