  1. wait that makes no sense. the rules on here are that you can only compare him to other black people. thats why he is vince young, david garrard, jamarcus russel, and warren moon all rolled into one. i was actually thinking the same thing about elway. the only thing cam newton has in common with those other black qbs is that he is black
  2. you IS right, they IS one. We should so something. ARE there a solution? I ARE very upset. They is screwing the fan base. We IS fed up with it. teach me more about business please. i am eager to learn...
  3. because of newtons size, say he doesnt work out as a qb. i would be willing to bet that he would be a great te. at 6'6 250 and speed, how could he not, especially with his ability to sense what a qb would be thinking. it is not uncommon for qbs to be drafted as wr. hell if tebow was at one time thought of as a hb, why not. also just a thought, running the wildcat with a guy that big and physical makes him a legitimate recieving threat, not just show like when trent lined up outside. i am not advoacting any of this, but because of his build, and athleticism, he is a utilitarian player. i am betting he could make just about any roster at a different position
  4. denver!?! what about cinci. they have problems everywhere there, but palmer has been there forever, adn since his acl he has been mediocre. id bite on luck on in a second if i where them
  5. haha. whoops i just searched the roster page for wr and copied and pasted.
  6. good to see we found our arguement in fact and research. current recievers, we can include practice squad for sh*ts and giggles Paul Hubbard 6'2 Steve Johnson 6'2 Donald Jones 6'0 David Nelson 6'5 Naaman Roosevelt 6'0 IR Lee Evens 5'10 Roscoe Parrish 5'9 Marcus Easley 6'2 Huggins Felton 6'2 Practice Squad Bobby Willaims 6'2 Rod Windsor 6'2 We used to have a problem with height on the field. That doesnt really exist for use anymore. That is one thing Nix has always liked, Tall reciecers. Its clear that that has been resolved. This is most likely one of the key factors on why we have been doing so much better in the redzone this year. Maybe you can create another topic where you just make things up, or bring up an issue unfounded in truth so that we can try and bring in a player you have heard of.
  7. I love the bills as much as anybody, and have found more optimism with worth bills teams against far superior teams. with that said i have a feeling that the bills get slaughtered. 24-42. the pats are spreading the ball well, we have little pass rush/defense in general. running the ball is becoming an issue, and against a stronger offense will be even more important. i was more optimistic about playing ne in ne seeing as billy boy couldnt quite game plan against us with gailey just returning to the league, few games played, and a new qb. with 14 weeks of play i see the pats better prepared than early season. with lee and roscoe gone it will make it easier for the pats d. side note, our secondary plays better in zone coverage. we have a serious problem with our db's this year since playing more man coverage than years past. we have a bunch of great zone db's and we should float and play the football, and no real shut down players back there.
  8. in a 14 game season, forgot that part
  9. they looked like they gave up out there. thats from snap 1. he wanted to see how they would bounce back after a heart breaker with the steelers. they didnt, they pouted, they got pouned all day by the vikes(and refs)
  10. just seems deflated. we were a team with a losing record and kept fighting for the past few games against some ok teams. they just seem to have come to the realization they are 2-9 and have packed it in
  11. i am on the page with that one. just moved to okc. other than wild wings there is no other place to go. people i have worked with have actually been pressured by family to excommunicate friends because of the rivalry between osu and ou. college isnt really a problem down here since somehow a ton of kids here sign their life to the military with parents consent before they enter their sr year of high school. god i love sundays. its like being home again. haha
  12. sarcasm anybody?
  13. Easy. Because Lee Evans is getting the safetys to roll over to him. Andre Johnson is a product of another better reciever
  14. meant to write 60 sorry guys
  15. the last few qb classes seem super sub par. the guys who where picked high and are supposed to be the replacements for the Brady's and Mannings simply arent cut from the same clothe. Eli is good but nowhere near great. Rivers plays well, but are always coming up short, and being out west makes it difficult to follow. Alex Smith and David Carr are out or on their way out. I wish Big Ben was in jail. Romo might be the most overated player of all time. Sanchez is borderline awful on a good team. Stafford has the guts but cant stay healthy. Freeman might turn out to be the best in his class. How many times does Warner have to ride the bench or play in the Arena league to realize he is a HOFer. How long did/should Garcia have started. Kitna is pretty well in Dallas. For all the hype about new comer Kolb, a guy fresh out of prison could be league MVP. The NFL has a serious issue heading there way, and that is their product seems to be depreciating with every draft class. Injuries are up because players are no longer skilled. QB's cant read defenses to keep their team mates safe, and recievers dont know where to be or where the wholes are. As steroids become more prevelent, teh job of the OL backpedaling while holding off a 350 lbs d-lineman become more and more difficult(this is the reason for the 3 yard rule in the CFL) The NFL/Teams put no stock in investing in an athlete and progressing their investment. With the abilty to cut a player with little to no contract or monetary loss, franchises have a revolving door of performing right now, rather than protecting their 50mil(bradford). with college ball becoming big business, it is all the same. recruits come in, cant perform transfer, quit, drop out. hell auburn offers a class every year worth credit hours toward a degree that helps them find agents, and handle the draft. i love watching football, but i would say that the product on teh field across the board is going down
  16. that is actually common in the ncaa. especially if you want to be drafted highly. how often do we talk about number of starts when looking for qbs? i dont know a ton about whats going on with him, but i would remove this from any arguement
  17. i heard buddy like cam newton. why would he go locker/mallet when cam can be had much later than a top 5 pick
  18. god they are 2-7, if this isnt a winable game(regardless of result) we have more problems than we thought
  19. while kelly was great, the guys who love numbers would not like him. he had a bunch of seasons throwing for under 50% and his td-int was regularly around 50/50. the win column is what made him good
  20. NFL franchise wont be dictated to the design/color scheme of their jerseys. god the giants and cowboys have been the same forever. that wont change with a switch to nike. college ball is different too. you have some schools like wisco that goes through addidas, oregon goes through nike. i am sure there are some reebok sponsored schools. i know ub has been back and forth from nike and addidas, those jerseys never change. nike holds the right to make the clothing for what the nfl teams ask them to make, they dont hold the rights to pay kraft, jerry jones, and al davis what to do. these are nothing more than ideas. some teams might make some changes to their uniforms, but i expect to see pretty much the same thing you see this year. i would bet that no teams will switch to anything posted on that blog
  21. i dont know what was called there watching the link. Byrd was lined up on the other side of the field and rolls to the top of the screen covering the reciever at the goal line. it looks like whitner is lined up at the line almost next to poz. i am not sure the call there, but resulted in a burnt poz and whitner caught underneith, with byrd playing overtop the other reciever in the endzone. it looks likes either byrd made the wrong read, or maybe a safety blitz that whitner pulled up on and dropped into coverage, and poz was beat. but that doesnt make much sense since whitner was rolling over to the bottom of the screen doubling which ever reciever that was. it looks like a blown coverage call to me.
  22. i dont want mallet or locker. not worth the controverys. neither is an upgrade over what we have. i would take newton in a 3rd or 4th, or if by some chance locker and mallet fall that far. this draft has 1 qb and it is luck. everybody else is a waste for what this franchise needs behind center
  23. because he gets eaten up on the off time he runs between the tackles, and is a huge liability in pass protection. i am far less upset by the amount of touches he is getting, and more upset with the way he carries the ball and reads plays
  24. 1. absolutely 2. i have given whitner some passes in the past, but i have been paying alot of attention to him lately. most blown coverages or wide open recievers are either misreads or plain getting burned from none other than donte. he needs to go 3. fitzy is currently ranked number 2 in the league. while he may not be the answer now, he is not even close to the biggest problem on this team, and it seems to be shaping up that, neither is the oline. we need to draft defense, then more defense, and defense again. 5. stevie is tied for 5th in teh league in td's, beating evans(12th) in both yards and td's. i am not calling him super star, but i think it is ok to say he is good 6. agreed kelsay over whitner 8. i am always waiting for more from spiller. while i am not calling it a bust, i am not impressed. for a guy with breakout ability he hasn't done much of that. just because some people on here get butterflies when he touches the ball, does't mean defenses do to. god i hope he pans out to be great 9. offense is night and day different, gailey mentioned it in the presser, we finally played 4 quarters of football. havent done that in a while. defense is putrid 10 AND 11. YUHS!
  25. I hate you regardless of the dropped int from whitner, he blew hard all day. he was a huge liability. we need to draft defense
