can't have it both ways.... Seattle capitalized on Green Bays failure to "step on their throats" - richard sherman and now NE capitalized on Seattles failure to step on NE's throat.

Dwayne Wright in the 4th round ? 4) RB Dwayne Wright Fresno St. 5-11½, 228, 4.66 - Wright is a big back who is shifty, he changes directions well for a big man. He is a versatile back who is good catching passes out of the backfield. Has the size and strength to be an excellent blocker. Another player who has durability issues, he missed two years with a bad knee injury but returned well in 2006. He doesn't have breakaway speed. Last year the Bills got safeties in the first and fourth rounds. This year it is running backs in both those rounds. Wright will end up being the "thunder" to Lynch's "lighting". Look for him to be the third running back on gamedays but used as on the goal line and in short yardage situations. http://www.billsdaily.com/draft/2007/

Goodell is finished.... you can bungle domestic violence, child abuse, player conduct policy and discipline in general, concussion, etc... but you CAN'T bungle a failed sting operation targeting one individual owner and his franchise, when he should have known this is a common league wide problem.

Deflategate Howard Eskin, Fox 29 TV: Will you hold Bill Belichick to the same standards in Deflategate as you held Sean Payton to in Bountygate? And why aren’t you available to the media every week, as Richard Sherman suggested?

International expansion Goodell’s job performance Rachel Nichols, CNN: A lot of issues have had a conflict of interest.

Belichick, Carroll both downplay eligible receiver issue “That’s not my job, so whatever the officials do, that’s their protocol and their mechanics, so whatever that is, you should direct that concern to the league,” Belichick said. “I don’t have any problem with the way it’s been handled,” Carroll said. “Bill has done a good job of challenging us with really unique and innovative ideas in how to move people around. . . . I don’t think there’s going to be any issue.” http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/01/30/belichick-carroll-both-downplay-eligible-receiver-issue/

that's gonna take some getting used to

What does Bill Belichick's son do for the Patriots? "Bill is a demanding guy," said running backs coach Ivan Fears. "All I'm going say is, just like anything else, whether Steve is the son or anybody else, if he's working for Bill, Bill is a demanding coach. Steve is learning, he's doing a hell of a job. That's got be a little tough for him, but I'm not going to go any further than that." Pressed for details on Steve's daily duties, Fears laughed out loud: "I ain't getting into that one!" http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000465322/article/what-does-bill-belichicks-son-do-for-the-patriots

that's the spirit !!

The Daily Show opened Thursday night by skewering the NFL for how it's handling Marshawn Lynch at Super Bowl media week. Jon Stewart's commentary cut right to the heart of the matter. You know how the league is talking about fining Lynch for his hat? "Classic NFL for being more worried about what's on top of a player's head than what's going on inside of it." - http://www.sbnation.com/lookit/2015/1/30/7950679/daily-show-marshawn-lynch-nfl-beast-mode-deflategate-super-bowl-seahawks-patriots

NFL says Solder touchdown play was illegal "There was an issue on that play where on the previous play, [Cameron] Fleming had reported as an eligible player," Blandino said. "And on the Solder touchdown he went back to playing an ineligible position. That’s illegal. That’s an illegal substitution. So that’s something we discussed with the crew. Bill [belichick] was made aware of it. So we’re going to be looking for that, make sure we follow the proper mechanics so that doesn’t happen again." For Fleming to go from an eligible player to an ineligible player, by rule, he would have had to sit out one play (unless there was a timeout, a penalty, or it was the end of a quarter) before returning to the field. http://www.csnne.com/blog/patriots-talk/nfl-says-solder-touchdown-play-was-illegal?p=ya5nbcs&ocid=yahoo Confusion continues about refs signaling Patriots’ ineligible receivers http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/01/30/confusion-continues-about-refs-signaling-patriots-ineligible-receivers/

Confusion continues about refs signaling Patriots’ ineligible receivers NFL head of officiating Dean Blandino said there’s nothing new for Belichick to check out: Carroll misunderstood, and there is no new signal. It’s unclear where Carroll got that idea, as he said on Thursday morning that he was informed by the league that the officials were changing the way they officiate when the Patriots run trick plays. “The new signal is the referee will point to the player that has the eligible number and he’ll signal that he is not eligible. That’s the new thing. They’ve never done that before,” Carroll said. So where did Carroll get that idea? It’s unclear, but Super Bowl referee Bill Vinovich seemed to have the same idea. Vinovich and Blandino had an awkward moment in front of the press when Blandino told Vinovich that he shouldn’t tell the defense which ineligible receivers not to cover, something that came as news to Vinovich. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/01/30/confusion-continues-about-refs-signaling-patriots-ineligible-receivers/
