The NFL Thread (with added College Football)

Fudge Packers sign Blow Job Raji. How appropriate.

It's official Mark Sanchez will be the next QB to fail for the J-E-T-S Jets Jets Jets

Do you reckon he will be a starter this season or one for the future? Unusual for a QB to walk straight into a team... although the Lions are so shit they have little choice, they have just been on the phone to my agent I told them to do one.

Ryan and Flacco did alright last season

[cdbearsfan]

Ryan was superb against Da Bears... sadly.

I never watch the draft.  I think I am like the only male in America who deosn't watch college football.

I never know who any of these guys are (aside from what I hear on the radio).

I know nothing of Mark Sanchez really, but the Jet's gave up a lot for him, and it is a pretty big gamble...

I heard the Eagles are looking at some kid, Knoshaun.  He's a RB and I hear he is sick.

We will see though.

(now back to the Yankees/Sox game)

[cdbearsfan]

Sounds like the Jets gave up almost as much for an unproven college player as Da Bears did for a probowl QB... a pretty big gamble indeed.

[pmarachi]

yeah, but I still have no respect for Cutler.  I hate when players act like cry babies and demand to be traded.

They had worked that team around him and he acted like a baby because the coach didn't say hi to him or some shit...

What a bum.

[pmarachi]

well, looks like the eagles won't be getting Knoshaun Moreno after all...

He went to Denver...

With the eagles other RB!!!

[pmarachi]

you know what?!?!


Screw Denver!

They took Dawkins from us, They took Buckhalter from us, and now they took the guy we wanted to draft!

[cdbearsfan]

Yeah well how would you feel if you were the best guy in your job for a decade and your employer sneaked about behind your back trying to find a replacement? Fuck Denver!

Cutler is good, but to say he is the best guy in his job for a decade is laughable.

I wouldn't put him as a top 5 current QB.

Maybe just outside of that, somewhere in the top 10, but he isn't a current top 5.

[pmarachi]

the eagles got a WR, this guy Maclin.

Don't know much more about him than his name, but he is supposed to be pretty good.

I meant the best guy in his job in a decade for Cleveland, ie he's their best QB since Elway... I'm not saying he's a Brady or anything (not yet any way!)

[pmarachi]

Denver?

OK, I will give him that, but I don't think that that is a big deal really.

Here's the thing.  The team is trying to build around you, as the starter.

The new coach had a working relationship with Cassel, and inquired.

Of course he did.  His guy, his protege was on the market.

I have to be honest, I would be shocked if 90% of teams didn't send a text message or an email, or something just to see what the water felt like.

I think Cutler was a baby.  I think he will be good in Chicago, because he is a good player (provided he takes care of his medical conditions), but he may prove to be a headache.

[cdbearsfan]

Fair enough... still think Denver handled it stupidly though... if their new coach hadn't come in giving it the big "who I am" Cutler would probably still be there and most Broncos fans would be far happier.

[cdbearsfan]

Bears trade down! Time for bed me thinks...

EDIT: Just realised I put Cleveland when I meant Denver, d'oh!
