  1. Vindication for Bengals, Bills Posted: Monday March 31, 2008 06:30AM ET Two years after Bengals owner Mike Brown and Bills owner Ralph Wilson were ridiculed for being behind the times and casting the only two votes against the league's labor deal with the players' union, these members of the NFL's old guard now appear to have been ahead of the curve. Though a league-imposed ban remains on team owners not to discuss the labor situation in public, sentiment has swung among fellow owners toward Brown and Wilson's position. The six-year extension from 2006 is not good for the league. And for Brown and Wilson, it's a matter of vindication. Owners have until Nov. 8 to opt out of the six-year extension to their collective bargaining agreement with the players. They need only nine of 32 votes to get out of it. The prevailing wisdom is they will. Then the union will strike or use decertification tactics. The 2009 season would be the last with a salary cap. Cincinnati Enquirer

  3. This would make perfect sense for both teams. Potential Vikings-Dolphins deal? Posted: Friday March 28, 2008 07:55AM ET Trading unpredictable left tackle Bryant McKinnie to the Dolphins for high-character pass rusher Jason Taylor would seem to make sense for the Vikings. The problem for Minnesota, though, would be replacing McKinnie. Next month's NFL draft will feature several top offensive linemen, but they're expected to go early, and the Vikings don't pick until No. 17 in the first round. St. Paul Pioneer Press Tayler expressing interest in leaving, and Fins are prolly going to draft Long. McKinnie recently arrested Childress said it will be dealt with, and Udeeze will prolly never play again. Only thing not good bout this is Parcells has said High Character guys only.
  4. Today Posted By: Chris Brown | Time: 10:33 AM ET | Link RULE CHANGE PROPOSALS: For those that haven't seen them yet. I'd thought I'd put together a list of some of the more interesting rule change proposals that will be up for vote at the league's annual meeting next week. First, changing the rule on playoff seedings. Division winners would still qualify automatically with the top two won-loss record division winners earning first round byes. But under the proposal a Wild Card team could play at home in the first round if their won-loss record is better than the division winner it has to play. The league hopes it will prevent teams from sitting regulars the last week of the regular season knowing their playoff seed is sewn up. The forceout rule that awards completions and interceptions to players that were deemed forced out of bounds while in the air is up for elimination. If it's voted out, receivers making receptions and defensive players making interceptions must get both feet down in bounds no matter what. I actually would like to see that rule stricken from the rule book because you're relying on an official to make a judgment call. Force out plays are not reviewable under replay so let the sideline or end line be the determining factor. The hair rule that I mentioned here yesterday will also be up for a vote. The player's hair cannot hang below the name on the back of their jersey. Players can tuck their hair up under their helmet. The five-yard facemask penalty is up for elimination. If it's taken out of the rule book all facemasks will be an automatic 15-yard penalty. Instant replay on field goals. You can thank the Cleveland Browns' Phil Dawson for this one. His kick that bounced off the support pole of the uprights and bounced back onto the field was initially ruled no good, but it was eventually overturned and ruled as good (correctly I might add). That tied the game and then the Browns won in OT. I'm not crazy about this one. How hard is it to determine whether a field goal is good or not? A monkey can do it. In that game the problem was each official under their respective upright was only looking up at their upright to make sure the ball was inside of it. But when the ball comes into your peripheral vision and it's evident that it's inside the upright the next thing you should look at is if it clears the crossbar. On long field goals especially you should probably watch the ball first to see if it's going to make it, then look at your upright, and then the crossbar if the ball is going to be close. Is that so hard? My fear is every field goal where the ball is so high that it is higher than the top of the uprights and there's some question as to whether the ball went over the outside top of the upright or if it was in. Head coaches are going to be asking for reviews on that stuff and the game is going to get slowed down even more. Finally, with the integrity of the game being called into question following Spygate, the commissioner called for stronger enforcement to police illegal activity. It apparently includes protection (immunity) for anyone reporting illegal tactics. I'm guessing it will pass. You don't want to be the owner that doesn't vote for stronger policing of the integrity of the game, I guess unless your Robert Kraft. Spygate is also expected to get the remote radio device in quarterback's helmets in a single defensive player's helmet as well, thereby reducing the need for defensive signals and preventing the opportunity to cheat as the Patriots did last year. The vote for the remote device for a defensive player fell short of passage last year, but will probably go through next week. ---

  12. No i dont give shout outs IM GARY BUSSEY.
  13. I believe Briggs's agent is Rosenhaus, and he wasent Clements's agent.
  14. I got your back Tipster It is possible the Bears will receive a draft pick from the 49ers if NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell rules the 49ers tampered with linebacker Lance Briggs when Briggs was under contract to the Bears last fall. -- Chicago Tribune
  15. In the most bizarre off-season injury to date, Broncos wide receiver Brandon Marshall said he slipped on a McDonalds bag and wound up with his arm wrapped in a cast. Marshall said he was at the Westgate Lakes Resort in Orlando, Fla. on Saturday and slipped and fell on a McDonald's wrapper. When he slipped, he said he stuck out his hand to brace his fall and it went through a TV entertainment center. His right arm now will be in a cast for two weeks. Marshall also received stitches in his arm, but he did not know how many. What he did know was that he was embarrassed. One of the league's most physical players was toppled by a plastic bag. "I want to thank everybody for their concerns and let everyone know that I'm okay," Marshall wrote in a text message Sunday morning. -- NFL Network
  16. March 23, 2008 Posted By: Chris Brown | Time: 9:49 PM ET | Link QB ROSENFELS AVAILABLE?: With Houston reportedly set to sign Jacksonville free agent QB Quinn Gray, their current #2 QB Sage Rosenfels is said to be on the trading block. While there are those in Houston who don't like that idea, I like him a lot as an option for the Bills as a #2 assuming J.P. Losman isn't serving in that role. Rosenfels appeared in 9 games last year, starting five and put up an impressive 84.8 passer rating despite playing on a roster lacking talent and no #1 receiver with Andre Johnson out most of the season with an injury. And by the way he also has that colossal comeback win over the Bills while serving as the backup QB for the Dolphins in 2005. The Texans are reportedly asking for a 2nd or 3rd round pick, but no one is giving that up for a backup. He could probably be had for a 4th, so if the decision is made to move Losman in one deal, making another to acquire Rosenfels would be a solid move. ---
