No way. Turn the page, that chapter is over.

Man, wish there was a Tahous by me. Not enough time for me to get there and back to Webster in an hour. Maybe I can go to Bill Grays or Webster Hots or something. Not the same though.

Oh no! Tebow is running the wildcat, were done! Stick a fork in us, it's over. How can we even hope to compete.

Don't really care one way or the other.

T O, i've heard of him.

OMG, you just don't get it do you. Impossible to talk sense to you. I'm done.

In 2009 when he signed his contract, Darren Sproles of all people and Steven Jackson were the only RBs getting more in base salary. With bonus it made him top guy. So MJD was getting paid and paid as the top back. Check it out. I can't find any other years salaries. http://content.usatoday.com/sportsdata/football/nfl/salaries/position/RB/2009-10 Is the rest of the league just supposed to stop paying their guys because MJD won't be the highest paid anymore. I don't think so. He got his money up front like he wanted, Jax did him good in 2009. If he didn't agree, he didn't have to sign.

Well as far as that comment, I could only find 4 guys paid more than MJD for this year, S Jackson, A Peterson, C Johnson, and D McFadden, and before this year $21 million over 3 years is $7 million. Not too many RBs making more than that per year.

When MJD signed a 5 year contract for $30, he was not the featured back yet, as he was splitting carries with Fred Taylor. He had yet to gain over 1000 yards or have over 200 carries. Yet at the time Jax paid him top back money despite not proving he could carry the load, with a front loaded contract that was team/cap friendly the last 2 years. Now we speed forward 3 years or actually his 4th and 5th year of the contract and he cries he wants more money. Gee, got a big signing bonus with a front loaded ($21million over the first 3 years) and now holds out. No effing way, he wanted a lot up front or early in the contract and Jax did that for him, now it is time for him to be a man and honor the last 2 years. If the contract had been reversed would he still have wanted to hold out, no way. He needs to shut up and just run the ball. Jax already did take care of him.

Yes he is. He signed the deal, he should honor the deal. If he didn't like the deal 3 years ago he shouldn't have agreed to it. What pride is there to swallow? MJD created the whole situation all by himself, Khan isn't doing anything wrong, he is only enforcing the rules that MJD agreed to.

...or was Manning special because of Wayne and Harrison? Works both ways. as already stated, Painter sucks so bad he was cut this year and Cassel has been a good starter for the Chiefs the past couple of years. again without a doubt Manning has had better skill guys to work with. In a big game and big game situation, i'm taking Brady over Manning. Period! Hey look I can do it too.

So you are trying to say New England has had 2 receivers better than, IMO HOFers Marvin Harrison and Reggie Wayne, throw is Dallas Clark for good measure, and oh how about Edgerrin James catching balls out of the backfield also! No way no how has NE had better skill players than the Colts. I don't know how you can even justify what you are saying, it's not even arguable that Manning has better supporting cast. The oline is debatable and that is about it as both of those units were good.

yeah gotta agree with ya.

Maybe the backup QB had a little to do with that. C Painter just got cut because he sucks where M Cassel is and has been the starter in KC for a few years now. Hmmm did'nt think about that did ya!

Don't know where you are getting your info from, but Brady and Manning have had very similar numbers throughout their careers, and going back 9 years Brady is 2-2 in super bowls where Manning is 1-1. In no way shape or form has Manning had lesser talent at his disposal than Brady. The lone exception for Brady was a couple of years of R Moss to throw to.

Don't know how good the guy will ever be, but as I stated in another thread he would not last 2 days on the Bills PS before being picked up by some other team. He must have some talent to be drafted in the 5th round and then be snapped up as quick as he was.

Whatever, Manning couldn't even get to another superbowl and have the luxury to lose it. Toms been to 5. Nuff said!

I agree with you about Smith. He is a jack of all trades and master on none. I don't think he is much good at anything but I can understand why they kept him. His versatility is what helped him win a roster spot.

NFL.com has White at 6'3" 238 and Carder at 6'3" 237. Yep, so much bigger. Sorry, but all linebackers are physical.

I think it is obvious that there is more to just playing in a game that goes into being a backup QB. Running the scout team, breaking down film, taking instruction/direction from coaches, keeping good information on the clipboard during the game, gameday preparation etc. are things that a backup QB needs to be good at also. Thigpen may not have the physical tools to be a very good QB when thrust into the situation if the starter goes down but he might be lightyears better than VY or even BS is/was at all the other things. Jury is still out on TJ but after his interview it seems likely TT has an advantage over him as well at all the other things.

No!

Hah, Tim Hightower was let go. He was drafted in 2 of my fantasy leagues.

I think that would be a bad move, as I don't think Tank would make it 2 days on the Bills PS before somebody would scoop him up.

Never happen!
