    Not enough to drop him out of the top 10. He's still a fine prospect in a weak draft, no matter if he's overrated in the media. He plays a relatively worthless position in today's NFL though. There isn't a huge need for run stopping MLB with leadership skills. What about a run-stopping MLB with leadership skills and lots of individual trophies? I forgot to take those into account.

    Do they really change much? People had a pretty good idea of who was what by week 13. But the goal isn't to be absolutely certain who is the best team. The goal is to stage a realistic and entertaining season. 4 weeks of playoffs is a horrible idea for college football.

    Assuming you get NBC Sports (formerly Versus) you can still catch plenty of games on tv. If I were you I'd watch some of those and see if you are interested in teams outside your immediate area. If you do, Pittsburgh will be on all the time, not that they need any help with fans. It could also be worth it to have an interest in a Canadian team just for the fun, and overabundance of non-television coverage you can find on them.

    Can we stop with the Rooney rule subject. Everytime a black guy gets an interview people ask if its token Rooney time. People asked if lovie getting interviews was Rooney related. Just stop. Emery is talking to everybody. If he hadnt already spoken with a minority candidate he would have eventually. And freaking lovie is a well above .500 long tenured head coach as qualified as anybody out there for an interview. Assume it's for football reasons and move on. Well normally I, and probably most others, would assume what you just said. But it's Mike Singletary, if it was an actual qualified minority I wouldn't question if it was just to cover a silly rule. He's a former NFL head coach with a storied past in the franchise. It makes perfect sense that ownership would nudge Emery toward having the interview considering he's already interviewing everybody else. And they already had minority candidates on the docket so there's no reason to bring up the Rooney rule.

    Part of me has been thinking Emery is gathering league-wide opinion on Cutler. If he asks everybody, "can you win with Cutler?" Or "what would you need to have to win with Cutler" he can have a better understanding of the potential market for Cutler next offseason or justify his own feelings about the future with Cutler.

    It just seems like forever compared to AP's freakish recovery. No, it seems wrong because it's usually a 10-12 month recovery. If they did the surgery this week, for example, I would say November would be about right. In the real world, sure, but it's more fun to imagine Shanahan inflicted more longterm damage. Also, if it could be 12 months to recover and he has the surgery in January 2013, there's probably very little reason to try and get him playing in 2013.

    Oof. RT @Unsilent RT @ESPNRadio980: Sources close to Skins camp say RG3 has torn ACL & PCL & will not play for a min of 14-18 months.

    irony?
  13. jersey cubs fan
    Have you noticed a lot of news about the other interviews? I've only heard blurbs about whether or not they happened.

    Emery doesnt strike me as that shortsighted. A great way to fill a need is with a first round talent. He'll trade up if need be. Sure he could trade down for the right value, but I wouldn't bet on it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I can see a trade down if there is a QB on the board that someone wants to take before the Jags pick in the 2nd. But I only see a trade if the Bears are dead set on drafting a TE with their 1st pick. Eifert and Ertz would both be overdrafts at 20, and at least 1 should be there if you go back to the top 7-10 of the 2nd round. I don't really like either idea. A lot will depend on the new coach though. If you don't take a TE with your first pick, might as well stay at 20 and draft the best OT, OG, LB available. I could easily see a trade down, especially with no 3rd rounder and less of a need for one impact guy but rather multiple capable players. They don't need an elite pass rusher, DB, QB or receiver. I'm also not sure how a trade down is "short sighted".

    If anybody is getting bought out it's Hossa, right?

    I still can't believe Shanahan deliberately chose to play without a quarterback for 3/4 of the game.

    That made dusty blush

    They had the highest weighted DVOA this year and ranked 4th in both offense and defense and 3rd on ST. Dvoa is for people who think they are smarter than they are, and Seattle needed extreme ref help to even qualify

    Cup goes to team that survives NHL playoffs, not best team over 9 months
  21. jersey cubs fan
    You think so? I see Seattle being able to move the ball at will. If Lynch doesn't put the ball on the ground at the 2, it's 28-14 right now. Seattle is garbage.
  22. jersey cubs fan
    Seattle has no business even being in these playoffs. Luckiest team in a while.

    Bills take Syracuse guy. Not sure how he was a candidate. Making your team a regular at the pinstripe bowl doesn't impress
  24. jersey cubs fan
    Exceedingly? No, not at all.

    Well [expletive], every QB has had a bad fumble or two if that's all we're talking about. Cutler had 8 fumbles. RG3 had 12. I wonder if RG3 is considered lackadaisical in the pocket? But RGIII willed his 10-6 team to the playoffs, Cutler did not. Similarly, Andrew Luck's 10 fumbles are meaningless when you consider how he "specialed" his team to 11 wins.
