  1. The Jints took a gamble on JPP ... but even at the time it looked better than our Maybin pick. If the Gmen are the kind of 4-3 that Wanny would build ...bring it on.
  2. So how's that "offense is the new reality of the NFL" theory working for you now? Maybe the Pack and Saints need to draft more offense.
  3. A wild rant but from JohnnyGold but I'm with you JG. Despite having a "genius coach" and the. "best QB ever" the Pats haven't been to the SB in years. Stop thinking they are gods and build a pass rush. The Giants SB win proved the omnipotent Brady looked pretty average on his *ss.
  4. This. Like it or not this is where we are. Let's get on with filling the gaping holes we have before getting an uber TE.
  5. Good point. I think Carrington does have it in him and maybe a LDE in a 4-3 is a fit. I would be concerned about lateral speed, but he's young and strong with long arms. Let's see.
  6. Maybe, but all we have for 4-3 DEs is Kelsey maybe Batten and Moats. That ain't gonna get it done.
  7. Carrington is a DE in a 3-4, a 5 technique if you will. He's a DT in a 4-3. Even if he "slims down" to 285, he's still 20+ pounds heavier than a 4-3 DE. Short story, we have enough good DTs if in fact Wanny goes 4-3. We need some speed h DEs in the 260 range. Think Freeney.
  8. I found it interesting his statement that 3-4 guru Wade Phillips used 4 down lineman 50% of the time against the Bengals last week. Seemed to me he's saying the scheme doesn't matter, playmakers do. Well Buddy, go get some!
  9. The Broncs gotta gift by making the playoffs in the first place. Then they got a bigger gift yet from Pig Ben who played the worst game he's ever played, albeit on just one leg.
  10. Why would you begrudge a long suffering Lions fan of his joy in making the playoffs? Relax homer...it's not an attack on the Bills because another historically bad team makes the playoffs. It should give us hope.
  11. I think this is a fair statement. RW has always hated to pay for top coaches and FO personnel. It's been my major beef with him.
  12. I have to agree with this. At least some thought came out of this otherwise unremarkable original post.
  13. From the mouth of babes....a injured rook calls out the big boys
  14. Scott Norwood and Carlester Crumpler. Really doesn't matter what was. I mean you can spend you life looking forward or backwards. We just had 12 crappy football seasons and I really don't care to assign blame to any one person. Ralphie coughed up the bucks when asked and the management got us Dockery and Langston freakin' Walker. There's plenty of blame to go around and frankly I don't give a damn. What's coming is all I care about.
  15. Jesus Beavis, calm the Hell down! What do you want the guy to do, have spasms and shout? He's doing and saying the right things.
  16. The diff is we were paying him millions while the jets gave him minimum. He wasn't and still isn't worth it.
  17. I hope Buddy will make some changes and put Chan on notice to improve. He needs to lay down the smack and get new DC and an OC.
  18. Great post and I agree with 90% of it. I don't think you give up on players after 2 years. Troup and Carrington should be brought back. By your measure you would have cut Eric Moulds and Bruce. Kelsey and Davis are depth players so why cut them? At least bring them to camp. I wouldn't give up on McKelvin. Some coach will get something out if him so let's get a DC who will figure it out. Brad Smith was an expensive mistake.
  19. I'm with the OP almost 100%. I'll take a pass rusher before a TE. Chan has to run the damn ball more and give Spiller more carries.
  20. The OP is right. Chan's "pass no matter what" play calling lost us games. Not running Spiller more these past 4 games is beyond stupid. The kid became a weapon and Chan chose to run a practice squad cast off and to throw to 3rd and 4th string receivers instead. Just crazy.
