Come on, nephew! You gotta catch that ****

Wish I'd put 5k on the Packers

I think the rest of this game we just have to hope Allen shows some development

This sucks

In some ways I agree with what Romo said last week in that part of me likes seeing him not timid and trying to make things happen. the key of course is to learn from this stuff and not keep doing it. Let's see how he handles it in the second half, hopefully he shows some metal toughness and improves

Still 17.9 higher than Peterman

Allen did that play loads at Wyoming. Bit harder in the NFL

Allen's acting better than his quarterbacking today

I think Beane said to McD "okay, you got your win so you wont go winless, now play like **** so I can get that number 1 pick"

Hope Allen doesn't turn it over next drive and give them a short field. We're screwed if he does

This is painful to watch

Anyone else think Mike McCarthy looks like William Shatner?

Lets get a TD and take the lead!

Last week Josh flew, this week I want him to catch a falling helicopter

come on Bills, let's melt some mutha !@#$in cheese!

I remember that video. Seem to remember they had Livin on a Prayer by Bon Jovi on there too. There was also one called NFL Goes Motown. Now, this video was made before the Bills lost the 4 Super Bowls, and they had a segment featuring Elway and Tarkenton losing all their Super Bowls, set to What Becomes of the Broken Hearted by Jimmy Ruffin. But now whenever I hear that song I always picture Kelly getting sacked in the big game, or Thurman sitting on the sidelines with his head in his hands after the 4th loss. Weird how things turn out, what with Elway winning 2 in the end.

He did consider entering the draft last year but apparently got some advice from Wentz and his coaches and decided to play an extra year. Imagine how raw he would have been if he'd declared in 2017?

Anyone watch Romo's a Football Life episode? Really good. I like him even more after that. I hate the Cowboys but even I felt a bit bad that he never got further than the divisional round.

This thread got me interested so I've just looked up first round QBs by year since 83 (since this is my era). There were no first rounders in 84 or 85 so let's start with 86: Jim (or Chris...) Everett Chuck Long (I remember this guy - had no idea he was picked 12th overall) 87 Kelly Stouffer Chris Miller Jim Harbaugh (had no idea he was taken in the first, either) 88 None 89 Troy Aikmen 90 Jeff George Andre Ware 91 Dan McGwire Todd Marinovich 92 David Klingler Tommy Maddox 93 Drew Bledsoe Rick Mirer 94 Heath Shuler Trent Dilfer 95 Steve McNair Kerry Collins 96 None 97 Jim Drunkenmiller 98 Peyton Manning Ryan Leaf 99 Tim Couch Donovan McNabb Akili Smith Daunte Culpepper Cade McNown 2000 Chad Pennington 01 Michael Vick 02 David Carr Joey Harrington Patrick Ramsey 03 Carson Palmer Byron Leftwich Kyle Boller Rex Grossman 04 Manning Rivers Big Ben JP Losman (ouch!) 05 Alex Smith Aaron Rodgers Jason Campbell 06 Vince Young Matt leinart Jay Cutler 07 Jamarcus Russell Brady Quinn 08 Matt Ryan Joe Flacco 09 Matt Stafford Mark Sanchez 10 Sam Bradford Tim Tebow 11 Cam Newton Jake Locker Blaine Gabbert Christian Ponder 12 Andrew Luck Robert Griffin Ryan Tannehill Brandon Weedon 13 EJ Manuel (OOOOOUUUUCH!) 14 Blake Bortles Johnny Manziel Teddy Bridgewater 15 Jameis Winston Marcus Mariota 16 Jared Goff Carson Wentz Paxton lynch 17 Mitchell Trubisky Patrick Mahomes Deshaun Watson

Kelly's story is just fantastic. I love the stuff about him saying he "sure as hell" didn't want to play in Buffalo. And then the interview when he played in the USFL and said, "would you rather be in Houston or Buffalo?" before laughing with the interviewer. Bills fans, especially those living in Buffalo, must have just hated him then. And then he finally agrees to play, plays brilliantly, falls in love with the city, goes to 4 Super Bowls and raises his family there. It's just great.

I love reading and watching stuff about the old days. The 30 for 30 shows and A Football Life are great. I watch the NFL still, but for me it's just not the same game I grew up loving. I know I sound like an old fart, but all the rule changes have hurt the sport IMO. Some were necessary but the league is so obsessed with high scoring games, and so many of the younger fans are so obsessed with fantasy that it's watered the whole thing down.

Will take years to know and will take a hell of an effort to beat 85, or even the year of Big Ben, Eli and Rivers. I assume everyone here has watched the 30 for 30 show 'Elway to Marino'. If you haven't, do it right now. Fantastic documentary. That entire first round was special. So many great players like Dickerson and Matthews etc. and so many great stories behind the scenes. Fascinating that the Cowboys were desperately trying to get Elway, and for a time Bill Walsh considered trading Montana so he could go after Elway. Even Tony Eason got his team to a Super Bowl despite having a poor career. Ken o Brien was no slouch (25,000 yards over an 11 year career).

Bless him, he's one hell of a nephew.

I quite like Sal's show, the sound quality is terrible but I just like his and Leo's opinions. Even if they are curmudgeons.

The Strahan one is verging on genius. Okay, I take that back. The one of him kicking Johnny Lawrence in the face is pure, 100% GENIUS Hmm, the picture of EJ holding up is number 1 jersey is somehow depressing as hell
