I DID step out of my office for like, 5 minutes to take an order of 100 cases of pepper spray for the Sierra Lione military (not joking about that, one of the weirdest orders I've ever had to approve)
They've upgraded their military arsenal?

Unless McCargo can play DE in Denver's new 3-4 with Mike Nolan as DC, I don't see him moving. I think McDaniels hired him to reproduce what NE did.
I do like the addition of Scheffler (should it happen), who is young, on the upswing, and someone that can block and receive.
Is he a good blocker? From what I understood, McDaniels was letting him go just for the opposite reason.
He didn't fit the traditional TE role he was looking for.

I've had the NFL Channel on Sirius running in my office all morning I havent heard them mention a thing.

some guy heard we signed Scheffler (Must have agreed on a trade then) can anyone confirm?
interesting. If it's true, I would think that Rotoworld would pick up on it soon.

the bleacher report speculates on what we could trade. (it's a little surprising)

I hope it's not for Steve Johnson. I'd love for it to be McCargo and a 5th, but that is probably wishful thinking.

I'm glad you have reviewed my 8 years of posting here and come to this conclusion.
Can I sidestep the board terms of service for a brief moment...
You're an idiot!
I don't need to see your 8 years of posting. I call it how I see it.
Keep them coming

I agree. It's funny how the only post a user makes was one where he stated that "Trent will lead us to the playoffs!". So, which one of you Trentites created the dupe account of JB17?
whats even funnier is that you can't let it go.
that the signature, which is a statement, that every time you post something, that this is the way you want people to see you as.
-
So when the shoe is on the other foot, it's no big deal? :lol:
I've noticed somethin, not that it was difficult to see.
Just about every post you make, is not so much football related, but it is in response to other posters to either criticize, chastise or demean them in some sort of way. You are a classic internet Troll. I'm sorry that your life is so bitter, and that you are frustrated, that you have nothing better to do than look for people's faults and criticize them.
Try looking at the brighter side of life, I promise you that the grass is greener on the other side.
-
it's okay, fingon. if you keep saying it, that'll make it true!
Look at your signatures.
Pathetic.
Just let it go, I promise you, J.P will be put out of his misery soon.

He needs to follow his own advice...
are you still sore about the other day?
its ok hun

Did Mort (or anyone outside of TBD) ever mention the Bills as a possible landing spot for TO? Nope. We need to look at this organization from a whole new angle now. They are feeling desperate, and that means they are unpredictable now. I wouldn't be surprised with anything now.
give it up
your reaching

A police report isn't "fact", though.
don't you know, people are guilty till proven innocent, what country do you think your in?

"Oh no. What if the Pats get Peppers! Waah."
"Oh no. What if the Jets get Cutler AND Holt? Waah, waah."
"Oh no. What if Miami gets Christ himself? Waah, waah, waah."
With due respect to the female fans who already know better, would those that fear what other teams are doing please grow a pair and just accept the fact that if we can't beat those teams because they're better then we need to get better ourselves. That simple.
Unless, of course, there is more honor in beating a team of nuns (although some of the ones I had growing up would kick Butkus butt).
I WANT to beat the Pats when they have their best players. I WANT to beat the Jets when they have their best players.
I WANT to beat the Phins when they have their best players. I WANT to line up against the best and beat the best AT their best.
Until we can and do, then man up in the meantime and root for the team to get better. Or not. Just quit the whining already.
GO BILLS!!!
I'd rather be in the AFC West

Great Post Dibs.
I mean it seems like half this board wants to get rid of our best players.
Peters is the best LT we have had since Ballard.
Marshawn is the best runningback since Thurman.
Trent Edwards has shown the most promise since Kelly.
Whitner the best safety since Henry Jones
Mcgee very solid corner and best kick returner ever.
Parrish best Puntreturner ever
Schobel the best DE since Bruce Smith
Poz a very promising LB
Kelsay....umm ok... I got nothing for Kelsay
I think it just shows the frustration of fans and the unreasonable, unrealistic views on our current situation.
-
Cool
It looks like it will be anywhere from 0-2 games, and most likely 1 game.

Trent is a young QB that seems like he might be a little unsure of himself right now anyway.
Where in the world did you gather that from?

Crowell is very average IMO. Better than Ellison, yes, but a difference maker no. I wouldn't be upset if he resigned with us, because like many have pointed out he'd be an upgrade over Ellison. That being said, the lasting memory I have of Crowell was him playing terribly vs. the Jaguars in the 07 season. I remember watching the film on NFL.com of Fred Taylor's long TD run in which Crowell took a terrible angle and was pretty much responsible for the big play. That was always the problem I had with him, he's just a little too stiff for a LB and often looked lost when he was one on one out in space. There must also be some serious question over his injuries, if he still has not received one offer.
Angles and overpursuit has always been his weakness, and I think it is a fair concern regarding the injuries and why no one else has stepped to the plate to sign him. Having said that, I think he is better than average, and with a little more discipline and coaching, I think that can be rectified. Concerning his injury, I guess no one really knows and that is a risk that someone will have to take. This is why he probably is only being offered a 1 year contract. Maybe, Im just speculating

FYI: Only Rivers, Pennington, Warner and Manning made the playoffs on that list...the other 8 were at home in the playoffs...so maybe its not so indicative of team success as has been implied in this thread...
And if none of them made the playoffs, does that mean Edwards is better than them too because the popular argument is that Cutler didnt take the Broncos to the playoffs...
Or maybe, just maybe, the absurd argument about team record is a very poor indication of a QB's quality of play...
Thats not what I said Alpha.
What I said was, it is not a perfect science, you have to consider qb rating and wins and losses, and clutch performance, this is the best way in my view how to evaluate a players value to his team. I think looking at the qb rating is one of the better and more accurate gauge's to look. If you look at that the top 10, and let me say again, it is not a perfect science, it pretty much does show who the best qb's were last year and the importance that they played for their team.
Btw, those four that you mentioned were 4 of the top 5 and the other in BRees had an MVP year. The other 6 of the top ten, you had Cassel, Romo and Rodgers who all had good statistical years. Schaub played for a bad team and still helped manage to help them win games.
So in reality, The qb's I listed in the top 10 all helped support my argument.

Ok ... ok ... this thread is gay ... I'm banning myself from this thread

Absolutely, I DO discount a QB rating system that ranks Rob Johnson (85.5 in Buffalo) ahead of Jim Kelly (84.4) on the franchise career leaderboard.
There is no doubt, that it is not a single, absolute indicative way of determining who a better qb is. But it definitely is a gauge in which you can compare qb's. agreed?
I would imagine the other measures that we have to gauge a successful qb is, wins and losses, come from behind victories, playoff appearances and playoff wins and losses.
*edit*
I was looking back at the top 10 qb ratings. As I said, it is not a perfect science, but considering wins and losses, and what these players meant to their teams in value, I think this is a pretty accurate way of determining the value they represented towards their teams success
1. Philip Rivers, 105.5
2. Chad Pennington, 97.4
3. Kurt Warner, 96.9
4. Drew Brees, 96.2
5. Peyton Manning, 95.0
6. Aaron Rodgers, 93.8
7. Matt Schaub, 92.7
8. Tony Romo, 91.4
9. Jeff Garcia, 90.2
10. Matt Cassel, 89.4
16. Jay Cutler, 86.0
17. Trent Edwards, 85.4

Why would Denver put him on the block?
Because he doesn't fit the mold of Tight End that Mcdaniels is looking for. He doesn't want an H Back or a Tight end that lines up as a wideout. He wants a good old fashioned Tight End that can both block and catch passes, and that's not what Scheffler is known for.
-
lmao...um, I do like Edwards potential...but yes, he has sucked on the field...
Just when I was about to leave this subject to rest, you had to make the comment. LOL
Same qb rating, same wins and losses, actually a little better for Edwards, and Edwards a better clutch player.
Unless you discount the qb rating system? I am sure you have an excuse to justify Cutler's but not Trent's right?
Ok well if Edwards sucked on the field, then so did Cutler.
-
With Jason Peters once again not agreeing to a contract we simply deal him for a first and some other picks. Then you pull the plug for Cutler and give the Broncos Edwards and they'll probably want a first or second so give them that. If we lose a second for cutler then we would have our 11th pick and one from whoever's we would get for Peters. We then could try to package a deal and move up and get a solid LT in the draft. Or if we give a first for Cutler then we would have the one we recieved in the deal for Peters. So all in all we would either really still have our picks or possibly more, and we would get rid of the headache in Peters.
*sigh*

most likely a 2nd or 3rd.
I hope not a 2nd or 3rd. Hoping for a fourth round.

SCHEFTER SAYS PEPPERS-TO-PATS WON’T HAPPEN
Posted by Mike Florio on March 17, 2009, 12:08 p.m.
In his weekly appearance on WEEI in Boston, Adam Schefter of NFL Network said that the Panthers won’t be trading defensive end Julius Peppers to the Patriots.
“That trade is not gonna happen,” Schefter told Dennis & Callahan of WEEI.
Schefter cited the financial investment that Peppers would require and the looming class of Patriots free agents (including Vince Wilfork and Richard Seymour), who will be on the market in 2010.
Schefter’s opinion conflicts sharply with a Monday report from Vic Carucci of NFL.com, who seemed to suggest that a trade would happen at some point between the upcoming league meetings (which open on March 22) and the 2009 draft.
“I’m telling you, they’re not gonna do it,” Schefter said later in the segment. “. . . . I don’t believe for a second there’s any truth to it.”
Schefter then said he’s 99.9 percent sure that Peppers won’t be playing for the Patriots next year.
But Schefter then acknowledged that that 0.1 percent could come to fruition, and that he could be exposed as a “complete fraud.”
Meanwhile, Schefter said that he regards the chances of the Pats signing defensive end Jason Taylor as “realistic.”
