Delhomme will remain the starter in Carolina.

 

"It's like Tiger Woods doesn't win every tournament. [Roger] Federer doesn't win every tournament," Fox said. "There's a lot of people out there that practice and get paid, too."

Hmm, I was unaware of this. They could have signed Jeff Garcia, but he's now signed on with Philly.

 

Apparently, the Panthers did sign AJ Feeley. . .

Carolina may have very well won a Super bowl by now if they ever woke up and realized Delhomme was an average QB at best.

They'd have absolutely won in 06 with a good QB. They had incredible talent across the board that year.

 

Good job, guys, now it's Delhomme and Feeley the rest of the year. Why even play the damn season?

So regardless of whether you think it's a cheap move to pull:

 

In my confidence pool you can change your picks up to til each individual kickoff.

 

In the current setup:

 

If Buffalo and San Diego win I get 10% of the pot.

 

If I change my San Diego pick to Oakland:

 

If New England and Oakland win I get 80% of the pot.

 

If this game comes down to the wire, do I make the switch?

So if you change your pick to Oakland, what happens if San Diego wins? Are you still getting 10 percent?

Just thought it through. If I switch to Oakland and they win, I get 80% regardless of the early game. If I keep SD the only way I get money(10%) is if Buffalo and San Diego win.

 

If I thought Oakland had any chance at all, it'd be an easy call, I just think San Diego is gonna beat em by 80.

Even if Buffalo wins Oakland only has to have a >12.5% chance of winning for it to be correct to switch. There currently at about 18% to win according to the vegas moneyline, so switching looks correct. You won't win very often though.

Its gonna suck if you don't switch and Oakland wins.

 

I would switch just because It would piss me off if I didnt switch and Oakland won

Coupled with the Chargers being my survivor team.

I agree with Gruden here completely. Players have to be able to tackle the quarterback and only allowing delicate tackles is not a good idea.

 

I see what they're saying, but at the same time the whistle blew a couple times before he started the whole takedown throw. And because the whistle had already blown a couple times, there were many other ways to bring down Edwards without drawing the penalty.

Was the takedown after the whistle? If so, I can better understand the penalty. I had the TV on mute (was on the phone) and didn't hear whistles.
