  1. I'm not so sure broadcasting it is very smart.
  2. The issue isn't Jackson vs Spiller, it's the play calling and strategy. It's obvious they are trying to go Jackson one series and Spiller another. That's all fine, but on that 3rd and short where Spiller got stuffed, I couldn't believe they wouldn't bring in Jackson. He's the much better short yardage guy. But because it was Spillers turn we don't adjust and make the correct strategic call. Second they sprinkle in letting them both be on the field, but they need to do this the majority of the time. Put them both in the backfield, let Spiller break out in motion etc. Lastly when we are near the 20 or inside going to the wildcat just seems to slow any momentum that is building. It rarely results in significant yardage and puts us in 3rd down situations way too often.
  3. Dude you are the first person to respond on 90% of the topics I click on. How the heck do you do that?
  4. I totally agree with you. You can point to any GM and they've drafted or brought in guys that haven't worked out. He's done a good job. It's time for the players and coaches to get it done. But it comes down to the old adage, if you don't have a great QB, you don't have jack crap. I don't care who your linebackers are or your safeties, if your QB isn't really good, you're in trouble. I know there's obviously exceptions, but that's by in large correct.
  5. Easley will have little to no effect on Jones. Jones is the starter and won't get supplanted because a practice squad WR called pulled up.
  6. We all know Fitz can't throw the medium or the long ball. Chan either refuses to take any risks and stays within Fitz capabilities or he's the one that's actually limited and can't find a way to work outside of the intended game plan. I don't know that the fans will ever know these answers but it sure is frustrating to watch.
  7. I wouldn't say Fitz is terribly good at reading defenses. I do agree that any veteren is helpful teaching a rookie the playbook they already know. I don't think most of us on this board know for sure that Gailey's system is so complicated beyond other NFL teams, that's just what we hear. I don't disagree that Fitz will most likely be the starter, but if it's the right guy, he can start right away. There's plenty of examples and more importantly several recent examples that might be considered the new trend.
  8. I understand what you are saying, but what if the right guy is there? So for me it's about who they pick, then we can comment on whether it should have been their decision.
  9. Not only is this funny stuff, but I think it's kind of cool they can have this kind of banter.
  10. Hope everyone that may be effected stays safe. We will be praying for all of you .
  11. Anything can happen, but to think we will win is an irresponsible prediction. Houston is the most BALANCED team in the league. There isn't one area that we have an edge to even argue we would have a chance to win. Again it's possible because the game has to be played and the ball can bounce, but to say we will win with no analysis of how is baseless hope.
  12. They better be working on something to make a new owner want to stay here.
  13. Oh, I thought the board was for football discussion and opinion. Then how many quarts are in a liter?
  14. I think the teams that will look to draft a QB are: Buffalo Jacksonville Oakland Philly Arizona Teams that may be looking are: Denver Jets Dallas Bucs San Fran Seattle
  15. Why if you have a question does that constitute a new topic? Google or go to the shoutbox. Good Lord!!!!
  16. How would you propose a front office builds a team, if you don't the like the looking good on paper part?
  17. From the Phinsider: "Barry Jackson ‏@SportsBuzzMiami Report: The Miami Dolphins have a tentative trade agreement with the Kansas City Chiefs for Receiver Dwayne Bowe for a 3rd & 7th round pick."
  18. There is no chance the Chargers let Rivers go. I'd say there's a very small chance Dallas would let Romo go. In my view Vick would be the only option and I'd say no to that. We need to draft one and take our chances there yet again.
  19. I heard Jets fans want him to get a shot at TE. You know, since he's built like one.
  20. I'd take Flutie in a heartbeat over Bledsoe.
  21. So you get hired and the company trains you for a couple of Months. On your 5th day of doing your actual job you should be fired for not knowing what you're doing?
  22. Excellent point.
