  1. Unless Manziel shows up at the combine smoking a joint and carrying a bottle of Jack in his hand, I don't see him being available at 9.
  2. Love the way Manziel feels pressure and just instinctively slides around in the pocket.
  3. I've seen a lot of crazy things posted over the last week, but when people compare EJ's rookie season to Peyton Manning's rookie year I wonder what sport they are watching. http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=list/rookieqbs 6. Peyton Manning (Colts, 1998) Manning took every snap for the Colts in 1998, and set all kinds of rookie QB records in the process: most completions (326), attempts (575), and yards (3,739). He also threw for 26 TDs, breaking Charlie Conerly's 50-year-old mark. Manning was one of the top QBs in the NFL, leading the AFC in passing yards and attempts. Manning did all this despite getting off to a terrible start; in his first four games, he threw 11 interceptions. He turned things around in the middle of the season. "The improvement is phenomenal," said Colts president Bill Polian in mid-December. "I've never seen improvement like this from a rookie in all my years." Just stop with this nonsense.
  4. Case in point. Conspiracy theory!
  5. From what I've read on TSW, if EJ flames out then Nix drafted him. If he throws for 4,500+ yards next year then Whaley drafted him. Our fans are willing to go chin-deep in denial if it brings even the slightest iota of hope.
  6. FYI at the season end presser today a reporter asked Whaley if they would be against drafting another 1st round QB this year. He basically replied "If we think there is a guy out there in the draft or FA that makes this team better we will try to go get him." Yeah, that's the standard answer, front office speak at its finest. But that's not exactly a ringing endorsement for EJ.
  7. I don't think it says much about the draft, it just quashes any arguments about Thad vs EJ.
  8. Seriously. If anything we probably bolstered the unit by adding Goodwin and getting Easley (who's a beast on ST) back from injury,
  9. Seriously. At least on Sundays lol.
  10. Diminutive!?!!? I don't think that word means what you think it means
  11. The only only good thing about Crossman's FG team was Carpenter, and I don't even know if it was his call to bring him in (probably not).
  12. I think Lewis is becoming a solid #2. I don't really expect any #2 QB to go into New England and win but Thad played well today, especially considering the rough weather.
  13. I'm on board with another trade down!
  14. Game was a lot closer than I predicted. Had a chance at the end.
  15. Kiko getting pushed around like a little rag doll
  16. I'm still here! And I couldn't be happier that Fitz is not our starting QB. This has been the biggest straw man argument on this board for the past few weeks, and probably will be up until the draft. No one is saying to keep drafting 1st rounders until we hit a Pro Bowl rookie. How about at least drafting a high QB (1st-3rd round) until we get one that doesn't have glass knees?
  17. Well that isn't going to help our contract talks with Byrd.
  18. Bills on the road + Thad = Patriots 38 Bills 13
  19. 0-2 against playoff teams.
  20. Well we just spent a day 1 pick on a project.
  21. The play isn't stopped until the ref blows the whistle. So, the ref has to see the puck lodged in the equipment (skate, pads, glove, pants lol), then blow the whistle to officially stop play. It looks like the only person that saw it drop in his pants was Mark Pysyk.
  22. I said the best guard in FA.
  23. Fitz needed 5 INTs off Brady to beat the Pats, which means that it will never, ever, ever happen again for Fitz. That was his Megamillions win. He cashed in on our D and went right back to being Fitz.
  24. The offensive line isn't nearly the disaster this board makes it out to be. Even with Legursky playing we are still probably a top 10 - 12 OL. Our quarterbacks (who have no experience) make the sacks allowed stat look a lot worse than it should be. This man gets it! The best guard in FA last year signed for 4 years $23.5M, and he was only 26 years old. You can't really pick a G or a RT in the top of the 1st round.
