There is a third choice. Houston is a lousy team and we might as well open it up and work our offense and passing game and see where it takes us. We might actually win against Houston doing that (we would NOT win against the likes of Indy, New England or any good team doing that) and also get a good picture of whether JP is worth keeping in the game the rest of the season. I'm looking for option three...an exciting offensive game and a win.

lost Thought this might be inspiring for the lost crew.

I suspect this "dog of a matchup" will be the one where JP is turned loose. The Indy game was played to win, and it was a less than exciting game plan and one where we learned that JP knows enough not to turn over the ball, but not much else. I don't think winning means all that much now, and I think it might just be time to see what JP can do. I'm hopeful it will be well worth watching, because I've got a hunch JP does have what it takes to make it in this league and I've been waiting for him to get into a situation where he might make a difference. Hopefully he will get at least SOME time to set up and will be given the green light to run when he doesn't get the time.

oh well..I'm hoping he gets in eventually. Ralph as well.

My prediction is Tasker. I think the uniqueness of the position and the fact that as a special teams guy he was MVP of a pro bowl will work to his benefit. He will be the surprise pick. I think Monk and Irvin will get in this year as well, pretty much dooming Andre for this year. Thomas is on the bubble. Ralph made too much noise this year (although his complaint appears to have some merit.)

In retrospect, more nuts than courageous. Most of the flying was in Cambodia and Laos and over the Ho Chi Minh Trail.

I'd have put the Woodstock album, Crosby Nash, Stills and Young into the mix in the sixties. On the 50's they seem a little pale. I'd think Ella Fitzgerald's albums should get a nod.

you are right on run blocking dunkin..but the group just cannot pass block.

Nonsense...you're not qualified cuz you're a right wing extremist!! Actually my comment was in response to USMC comments that I sat on my ass and didn't do anything (although..if I had been given a choice in the matter I would have loved to have sat on my ass and not have to do anything...my momma didn't raise me to be a hero.) We can still talk about fascism and not be allowed on the PPP board, can't we?

ESPECIALLY after all that!!! Gonna meet me for grouper in February?

no...i don't think I did. I made a sarcastic remark about Borat's taking advantage of gypsies Kazakhs and, to a considerable extent, Jews. Read the post again. Incidentally, I'm not really all that big on killing Iraqis either.

and condescension is always spelled with an s. Frankly it was you who made the crack about not doing anything for my country. I'll remember about the capital M. Kind of like MacArthur's comment about the swagger stick. If you need to capitalize it, go ahead. Gotta get going as my Secretary just told me the Cleaners were going to move some stuff so that the Painters could do the office!

I['m kind of hoping for our offense to break out this game. I like the Houston Texans, but not when they play the Bills.

Not really marine...over 130 combat missions in Vietnam and the DFC for valor in combat along with three air medals...and you fought where and for how long?

I agree. We have to address the o-line first and should make a decision i the next four or five weeks as to whether we need to be looking at another qb. That being said I think we are heading in the right direction. And stuckin, remember that I was NOT a fan of DJ when he was hired, but I think he knows what we need and will be addressing it. His reworking of the defense is a really positive move. I'm still hoping JP shows us something in the next few weeks, but I'm starting to wonder.

Why would we do that when we still have so many Iraqis to kill?

Late rounds (7)...Terrence Pennington Second Round....Winston Justice First Round Mangold and Ferguson. I think in general you get a better pick in the earlier rounds.

Very sunny about 55 degrees here in east tennessee...gonna play golf if I can get out of here in an hour or so.

Why would you want to kill gypsies?

right....tell that one to Eric Mangini. The fact is that we don't have any pass blocking and we aren't going anywhere until we get some. The draft and free agency are the two obvious and best ways to do that.

While everyone is being taped and treated for sprains and tears, poor vinny is old enough to be having prostrate and incontinence problems. Wonder how his memory is...remembering the count may be a chore. Seriously..its nice to see an old guy still in the game.

Peace doesn't really mean anything if we don't kill a lot of people to get it!

probably not JP...haven't seen a qb as chubby since Alex Van Pelt. The assessment of Jp to date is one I can't disagree with. Lets hope we see a lot more out of him on Sunday, and he can move up a bit in the ranking.

George Bush has a heart attack and dies. He goes to hell where the devil is waiting for him. I don't know what to do here," says the devil. "You're on my list but I have no room for you, but you definitely have to stay here, so I'll tell you what I'm going to do. I've got 3 people here who weren't quite as bad as you. I'll let one of them go, but you have to take their place. I'll even let YOU decide who leaves. George thought that sounded pretty good, so he agreed. The devil opened the first room. In it was Ted Kennedy and a large pool of water. He kept resurfacing over and over and over, gasping for air. Such was his fate in hell. No!" George said. "I don't think so. I'm not a good swimmer and don't think I could do that all day long." The devil led him to the next room. In it was Tony Blair with a sledgehammer and a room full of rocks. All he did was swing that hammer, time after time after time, and more rocks appeared. No! I've got this problem with my shoulder would be in constant agony if all I could do was break rocks all day!" commented George. The devil opened a third door. In it, George saw Bill Clinton lying naked on the floor with his arms staked over his head and his legs staked in spread eagle pose. Bent over him was Monica Lewinsky, doing what she does best.. George Bush looked at this in disbelief for a while and finally said, "Yeah, I can handle this." "The devil smiled and said... "Monica, you're free to go!

Exactly...I think the reporter is absolutely dead on. We can have a real break next year...watching Brady Quinn get knocked on his ass instead of JP Losman. Maybe we can draft another qb the year after that!!!
