NFL Offseason/Coaching Carousel/non-playoff talk

Fox's broadcast teams for 2013, and their first games:

 

Broadcasters	First Game
1. Joe Buck, Troy Aikman, Pam Oliver	Week 1: Green Bay vs. San Francisco, 4:25 p.m. ET
2. Kenny Albert, Daryl Johnston, Tony Siragusa	Week 1: Atlanta vs. New Orleans, 1 p.m. ET
3. Thom Brennaman, Brian Billick, Laura Okmin	Week 1: Minnesota vs. Detroit, 1 p.m. ET
4. Kevin Burkhardt, John Lynch, Erin Andrews	Week 1: Tampa Bay vs. NY Jets, 1 p.m. ET
5. Chris Myers, Tim Ryan, Jennifer Hale	Week 1: Seattle vs. Carolina, 1 p.m. ET
6. Dick Stockton, Ronde Barber, Kris Budden	Week 1: Arizona vs. St. Louis, 4:25 p.m. ET
7. Sam Rosen, Heath Evans, Molly McGrath	Week 2: Detroit vs. Arizona, 4:05 p.m. ET

Carolina really needs to get good so the team can draw higher-ranked broadcast teams. I'm so tired of having to listen to Chris Myers and Dick Stockton.

I like Chris Myers and Sam Rosen. Not a fan of the guys with them though. Team 2 is probably my favorite overall. 1 and 3 can go to hell (though, Aikman is ok).

Jordy Nelson to miss the rest of training camp after a "procedure".

I can tolerate Myers, but Tim Ryan annoys the [expletive] out of me.

[Warpticon]

In the least surprising news since the sun coming up, Dantonio Alexander won't play because he hurt his knee.

Jennings said: "One of the things that drew me to coming over here was the makeup of the team. When I came over here, I was kind of brainwashed. There's no 'kind of' to it. Being over in Green Bay, you're brainwashed to think anyone in the division is tiers below."

 

"It's like everything that you know in Green Bay is like the best, the best, the best, the best, the best," Jennings continued. "And it's like total brainwashing."

[NOLA]

Not sure this is where to post this video, but...wow!

I love these guys.

Wish I could live there.

Did Rodgers or one of the Packers players/FO guys [expletive] Jennings wife or kill his dog or something? These statements are weird and he's seemingly not been provoked.

 

The only thing I can think of is he's pissed he didn't get his contract from GB, but he still got a big deal and GB has 3 guys who are younger, cheaper and as good or better than him that it made zero sense to commit money to him.

Rodgers and his quack chiropractor of a father are the head of a Green Bay cult

[Banedon]

Matt Spaeth carted off the field for the Steelers last night.

I wonder if Rodgers' father is short as well

[Banedon]

Jamaal Charles leaving practice on a motorized cart. Uh oh.

[shnsajax]

Sounded like just a rolled ankle and not too serious. But serious enough to again question his durability.

 

What sucks is I pick 4th again in my keeper league and he is one of the guys I have been projecting to take. With probably 3 RB's already off the board.

X-rays negative. Calling it a foot strain.

Malcom Floyd was carted off the practice field with a potentially serious right knee injury Monday.

Beat writer Michael Gehlken witnessed the injury, and said it "does not look good." Floyd was down on the ground for several minutes, and many of his Chargers teammates gathered around him in prayer. It would be a huge loss for the Chargers who have already lost Danario Alexander for the season to a torn right ACL. Robert Meachem and rookie Keenan Allen may be forced into action this season. We should know more about Floyd's knee Monday evening.

 

Chargers now even more screwed than they previously were.

Tom Brady leaves practice with an injured knee, the same knee where he tore his ACL back in 2008

TEBOW!

[Banedon]

Oh god, I'm normally not sympathetic toward the Patriots, but I realllllly don't wanna hear the stupid Tebow discussions that are forthcoming.

I'll deal with it if it makes the Patriots bad and Belichick lose. I mean, there's no way Tebow gets near a start, but they'd still be a lot worse.

That Steve Largent is going to be a star. But that defense has to find a way to pressure Tony Eason.
