truth on hold

No matter what he is gmen call on 1st down after the turnover has to be one of the dumbest I've ever seen.

No such thing

First you cite Edwards now you're onto Johnson. What's the conclusion: because we've made poor draft and FA choices in the past we should never go for a QB again? The league is about taking chances until you get it right. I can't answer how much Id offer because I'm not a GM and i don't know the FA market. But if his arm strength checks out, in the abstract I'd be willing to exercise our option to get out of fitz contract before next season and give it to Flynn. That also assumes we can't land a big name QB in the draft which is highly unlikely now with barkley not declaring. I just don't see us going anywhere with fitz and his lack of arm strength

The irony in all this is that pushing 50 and with the mileage on his knees MJ may not even be able to dunk it anymore.

Never saw Edwards run around and make dynamic downfield throws Flynn did. Don't see the stylistic comparison at all.

Flynn looked terrific when Rodgers was out last year. I'd take a chance on him based on what Ive seen and also knowing it's theres no way packers would sit rodgers.

Rams will trade the pick for multiple picks: they have too much invested in Bradford and they have holes all over the place. Vikes will either trade the pick or keep it and trade Ponder

And he thinks we won't stink next year too? Lol jokes on him. We'll be waiting in 2013 too, he's only delaying the inevitable

This year Colts. Sick of seeing them on soooooo many nationally televised night games. Why the heck didn't the league at least do something about these late season games? Been clear from the beginning this team was folding the tent.

Then there's this guy

You forgot one thing: it's never Chan's fault

Seems like nix has been keeping a progressively lower profile along with the losing streak. Wouldn't shock me if he's on the way out. Last years draft was a disappoint and Ralph can't be happy with all the money he wasted on his boy merriman

If newt wins the GOP primaries Siri could be his VP

League should have a lottery for the bottom feeders but they don't. Makes it very clear "just lose baby" should be the motto when you're out of playoff contention

Candidate #1

Coughlin and Reid won't get fired. They both have good records and there's nothing better out there. I don't get why Lewis will resign since they're exceeding expectations and have a boatload of picks from the Palmer trade. Shanahan won't resign either. Hes too arrogant and also too greedy to leave much money on the table. Surprise firing would be Ryan if jets don't make playoffs. It could unravel quickly as there'll be pressure to get rid of OC schottenheimer which Ryan will resist, then ownership will fire him too since his defense is getting embarressed as well. Perfect opening for cowher to land that broadway gig he covets

I'm rooting for the 4 teams that can fall behind us in the draft who I see as most likely to draft QB: Tampa, Cleveland, Redskins, Miami

"You're not, you're not good, Al. You stink." Ty Webb, Caddyshack

Don't know about the hormone theory but I do agree bills and their fans have placed too much emphasis on acquiring mother teresa in pads.

Miami and Jets hate each other. Lots of bad blood there. Im sure Miami would like nothing more than to stick a dagger in Jets playoffs chances in week 17. Game is also in Miami. But even w/ Miami out of the picture I could still see Browns and Bucs snatching up the remaining "big 3" QBs on the board ahead us, which again raises the prospect of trading up w/ someone like Vikes or Rams. Bills have a ton of cap space to address needs with free agents, further arguing for draft maneuvering and sacrificing some picks.

I dont think so, you're seeing less and less of that kind of thing these days. Players coming out seem more concerned about where they're picked than by whom. And if you're drafted high you're not exactly going to an elite team no matter.

Youre just getting more silly. If a player Only agrees to a minor reduction how is that attractive to a new team? These remarks only relate to the gauranteed portion of the contract all along. The economic benefit to receiving upfront or over time is small, especially in this low rate environment (google time value of money, I don't have time to give you finance lessons.) and if it were substantial as you imply for the player, in this zero game that would mean the new team is substantially losing. So again why is it attractive to them? Bottom line: unless Bradford were going to a team he wanted to play for so much that he agreed to real substantial paycuts, your argument makes no sense.

Of course there's a bidding but it's most often done before a pick takes place. This way the team knows what it's getting by trading down to a spot they're comfortable the player or players they want will be available. If you let someone else draft them there's a much larger risk of the team drafted them may not be interested in dealing them to you.

Its risky because you may not get the players you want this way.

Why in the world would Bradford renegotiate his contract and take a lot less money to move from one stink bomb to another ? You keep resting your arguments on these casual unrealistic assumptions. How do you know it's not the QB that's making the offense look bad? And hence also hurting the defense keeping them on the field too long and making key turnovers? Those citing losman forget it was steelers trading up ahead of us to get rothlesberger that triggered this
