Define "a while." All of them started year 1. Nobody sits anymore, especially high draft picks. You can't justify some no name QB from the 4th round sitting on your roster and developing for a few years like they should. They can either can play right away or they are gone pretty quickly. All the more reason to have a developmental league imo. I would definitely take a shot on these types of guys if I could send them off to the minor leagues and see if they turn into something. They aren't going to develop with limited reps in practice and not playing in the games

?? All of them did so thank you for proving my point

Most 1st round QB's play right away these days. There's only so many roster spots available. Teams don't have room for project players. When was the last time a team drafted and developed a QB? Jimmy G is the only one I can think of and he's not even on the team that developed him anymore. When you are a team like the Pats you can develop someone. Other teams don't have that luxury. Rosen is a day 1 NFL starter. We need someone like that. Otherwise plan B is get a veteran QB and maybe then once that position is solidified you have an opportunity to develop a young guy. We need a QB now so if you are investing heavily at the position it needs to be someone who can play and make an impact right away

He will fall from 1 to 1. Best pocket passer in many years. Reminds me of Eli so Giants wouldn't miss a beat if they decided to move on and trade up. Could be a draft and trade situation from Cleveland. Rosen would be smart to refuse to sign with Cleveland but they could draft him and then auction him off to the highest bidder if NY refuses to pay their high asking price for trade up from 2 to 1.

Check the playoff scenario generator link in the first post if you don't believe me Titans beat the Jags and they are in and Ravens beat Cinci they are in. We aren't winning today so if you are factoring that in then you will have a sad christmas

Titans have to beat the Jags to get in. They could win or lose this week and assuming we lose to NE it won't matter for them as long as they win next week. If they beat them then we are fighting it out with Ravens or Chargers for the last spot. If Ravens beat Cinci they are in. So basically if Ravens or Titans lose next week that opens the door for either us or Chargers. So we want Chargers to lose today so then it's just us who can sneak in! You are right, Jags won't have anything to play for, but they would probably want to win to keep a division rival out. Having played them twice and destroying them the first time, the Titans have the most knowledge about how to beat them. Also, Marrone doesn't seem like the type of coach that would rest players. Jags should be favored in that one so that is probably our best chance to sneak in

Titans game tomorrow has absolutely nothing to do with our playoff chances. Only relevant game tomorrow is the Chargers at Jets. Chargers need to lose either tomorrow or next week. Jets at home could give them a good game. Then Raiders the following week is a good rivalry game. So I would expect them to lose 1 of those 2. Hopefully it's tomorrow so we have a better idea of what we need in week 17. At that point all we will need is 1 win (Dolphins our best chance obviously) and either Ravens or Titans to lose in week 17. Titans will be the underdogs vs Jags and Ravens vs Cinci is a toss up, flip a coin type game imo. So I like our chances. There is a very realistic path to the playoffs. We just need to do our part and have a little luck along the way

i'll give them $5 and a tuna fish sandwich. thurs night football is booooring and the players hate it too

boring. put all of your money into bitcoins

Are you Kelly Pickler? I'm a big fan. Instead of PMing Don why don't you PM me for a good time ;-)

that would have been the right thing to do imo. let's say Brady defies the odds and has a good season next year as a 41 yr old. how much longer could he possibly play at that level? maybe a couple of yrs tops. Jimmy G is only 26. pairing him with a bunch of 1st round picks from trading Brady would have kept the Pats at the top. but this way it's more fun for us watching Brady wash out and the Pats having no plan B

stay tuned for the #1 best seller THE JIMMY G METHOD coming soon!!!

watching Jimmy G rise to power while Brady declines and washes out would be a dream come true. Brady hasn't played very well in the last 3 games and meanwhile Jimmy has. let's keep this trending in the right direction on sunday

Ok understood. Admittedly I haven't been following the whole thread, just the highlights. I just want to keep the conversation open in the small likelihood that someone with inside info will feel comfortable posting it. People scared Leroi away and some of his info was legit so if someone who may or may not have inside info wants to post it then please do and then we can also be free to research and refute it. But let's keep an open mind because you never know...the truth is out there!!!

I'm sure I'll have a bunch from Christmas from places I don't even go to. I have a stack from Bed Bath & Beyond for some reason!

He can post his info and you can post your rebuttal but I'm just saying let's keep it cordial. I don't want people that really do have news (verdict is still out on this thread) to be scared to post it because of the backlash they will receive by posters on the forum that don't believe them

I think we should just let him post what he wants and it's up to the reader to determine if they want to believe it or not. i don't think we should scare people away who may or may not have info to share with the fans. if it ends up being nonsense then we will know soon enough. a lot of people scared Leroi away and a lot of his info was good stuff. i'd rather have the info presented to me and then pick and choose what i want to believe

is this the part of the movie where it's revealed that it was Leroi the whole time?

i'd wager that we played better in the 1st half of those games than the 2nd. we try and confuse them and then the Pats make the necessary changes at halftime

hopefully we give them a show and not a blowout

not unless Bortles has some kind of Flacco type postseason where he gets on a hot streak. but they are a QB away from winning it all. if they somehow got Eli in the postseason then put them down as the AFC favorite

so far so good with Cadet. seems to be running a lot of routes out of the backfield so hopefully they can get him the ball IN SPACE

he said they made the call but Colts would want too much

when has that ever worked in the history of the NFL? you can't fix QB's. once the bullets start flying they quickly revert back to the way they have always done things. it's just instinct. almost impossible to fix. but coaches and scouts with their big egos think they can fix it. that is complete nonsense. you don't get to this level and then completely change everything that has gotten you this far Allen is not an NFL QB. he can't even complete passes against East Podunk University
