[quote=artmonkforhallofamein07;722307]Didn't think so. Was not really looking for an answer of a deal is in the works for the Skins, it was more as a football fan and interested in what happens with a top WR is all.[/quote]

If he doesn't sign by today, the Chargers plan to put him on the roster-exempt list...which means almost nothing

Guess Todd Collins changed his mind about the Bears

And...blast from the past...Vikings reunite Brett Favre with JaVon Walker

Looks as though the Seahawks are interested in VJ again as well. According to reports on the scroll of ESPN. Discussing contrat terms if I read that right?


On a side note. Any one heard what the deal with sellers is yet? I have not read anthing or seen anything regarding his injury.

Moore to miss 4-6 weeks according to PFT

Well that doesn't necessarily mean anything. The Seahawks also were at this point with Brandon Marshall but Seattle and Denver couldn't agree on trade terms so it's still early.

Collins will be good for them. He knows how to run an Air Coryell and will give Cutler handy pointers.

[quote=SmootSmack;722280]I noticed the other day that the Broncos right now plan on going into the season with D'Anthony Batiste as their starting LT...let that sink in for a minute

D'Anthony Batiste! A guy who represents all that had been wrong with our lack of focus on the OL in recent years...and now he's expected to start in place of Ryan Clady, arguably the best LT in the game...Broncos are screwed[/quote]

Josh McDaniels is more blind than Jim Zorn. I can't believe I said that. I'm utterly shocked. No, seriously shocked. Batiste is a utterly shitty LT. Godawful. False starts. Holding. Total whiffs. Replaced by Levi Jones mideseason and cut.

Russell Okung to miss 2-4 weeks with high ankle sprain.

Re: Notable Injuries Around the League
 

S. Rice had surgery yesterday, and will be out half the season...

Re: Notable Injuries Around the League
 

Guess Favre wasn't the only Viking who chose to pass on off-season surgery. Could be a huge loss for the Vikings

Every day, Trent Williams looks more and more superior to Okung, for many reasons.


Great job, Bruce and Mike.

I was listening to LaVar and Dukes about a month ago go on and on about the Vikes and how good they are. I called in and said I think with their injuries to Rice, Harvin, and uncertainy around Favre don't be quick to anoint them NFC champs. They bascially blasted me off the air. Then I said the Redskins could have comparable record this year. They cut the line after I said that.

Things in Minni suddenly don't look so good.

Rice was a big part of thier success last year, with the uncertaintity surrounding Harvin, I think you could be right on in your assessment.

They do have a great defense though. That is thier strength. It will be an uphill battle without 2 of thier top weapons though.

Re: Notable Injuries Around the League
 

Rice was a one yr wonder. I doubt he ever has a season like that again

Re: Notable Injuries Around the League
 

I live in SC. saw him play alot of college ball in the SEC at South Carolina. He beat alot of Sterling Sharps record there. What we saw last year out of him was what he did to every SEC team during his college career. The guy is a monster, trust me.

I am not a SC Gamecocks fan either, I just know from watching him he has alot of talent and last year I think was more indicitive of things to come from him rather than one good year. He has speed, size, great hands, and good route running skills to be an elite NFL WR for years if he really works at it.
