NFL Discussion Thread - Hall of Fame Game: August 3rd

[Truth]

What a wild FA so far

 

[rook]

what happens if amendola goes back to the rams, patriots probably end with victor cruz

Your laughing but Cruz in that welker role? :x

No bueno.

 

[mertonhanks]

Nnamdi and the 49ers are talking? :x I'll pass.

Definite Pass, the last defensive back I want.

SMH at us for talking to players long past their primes that dont even fit our needs

Jonathan Vilma and Will Smith took a combined cut in pay of nearly $10 million in order to stay with the New Orleans Saints.

Broncos :x

 

[illoquent aka dsk]

They turned it on when it mattered (and it probably helped they played Rex Grossman in the Super Bowl).

Highly underrated fact

"Our defense sucks, but so does their QB"

Their defense didn't suck in that postseason though. Like MertonHanks said, they carried the offense in their SuperBowl run...I think they only gave up 4 TD's total in 4 games played.

Peyton had like 3 TD's, 7 INT's.

But yeah...enough about that...

Reports are Pats offered 2 yrs/10 mill + incentives vs. 2 yrs/12 mill Wes got from the Broncos. So difference of ~2mill is what did it. Once again, The Patriot Way

"The Texans' first visit will be with S Ed Reed. He'll be at their facility on Thursday."

Pat Sims is very underrated but he's often injured. Once he came back last season the Bengals rushing yards allowed went down like one whole yard. Solid pickup by the Raiders.

Oh yea I that that's what everybody agreed on here It was pretty much the perfect storm for them, Grossman sucks and the Colts D went on a fierce run.

Ed Reed...come on....sign with us....then stay healthy....

They were horrible against the run because they had injuries. Bob Sanders sat the last handful of games and they gave up 200 yards rushing a couple times. But they got healthy by postseason and they carried Peyton. Peyton had a terrible QB rating and threw more INTs than TDs. They forced 3 turnovers and 4 sacks limiting the cheifs to 8 points in the wildcard when Peyton threw 3 INTs. Went into Baltimore and gave up just 6 points the entire game. They consistently gave Peyton good field position and he never came up with a TD.



We saw the Broncos D give up over 38 points when Peyton could only put up 21 points, at home. They are not the same Defense.



Everyone who watched that Colts postseason run knew the D carried them. Peyton was throwing INTs left and right, a couple fer pickle 6's. This Broncos D cannot carry them when the offense is struggling.

That was only one instance in peytons entire career where the D outshined the O..and it couldnt of came at a bettertime...

This. He carried them for over a decade, so at some point the defense had to do something.


Denver better get some safety help asap.


I will be highly pissed off if the Giants let Cruz go.

 

[do work son]

Django would be a nice replacement since Quin left

 

[jumpmanfromdabay]

**** you Josh Cribbs

Well Damn

 

[licensed to ball]

Cribbs sticking it to Bill even more

 

[shannonscrooks]

Glenn Dorsey went to the 9ers? Like that move.

In regards to Welker, came down to a couple million, whatever. Keep it moving.

Goodnight sweet prince...........

Adam Wexler  ‏@awexler

Ed Reed flying to Houston tonight, Andre Johnson has his ear. Just a guess that #Texans know how much $$ he wants & he signs b4 leaving

 

[jordanxi45]

I knew NYG would lose Cruz the minute they put that tender on him.

He's only 26 and aslong as he has an elite QB throwing to him, he'll continue to put up numbers IMO....

NYG ain't winning anything for a looong time.

 

[checks grossman]

Glenn Dorsey goes from being a bad fit in KC's 3-4 defense

.... to signing with the 9ers & their 3-4 defense.

 

[cash money 1999]

IM GLAD I GOT TO LIVE LONG ENOUGH TO SEE THAT SCUMBAG SHOW HIS TRUE COLORS

Any 9ers fan want to comment on this? I'm not familiar with what Dorsey does or does not bring to the table.
