McDaniels certainly mismanaged the situation (well probably beyond mismanaged and completely screwed this up) but Cutler is to blame just as much as he McDaniels is. Firstly, Cutler becomes mad and pouty that Shanahan was fired and the QB coach Jeremy Bates was not hired as HC. He goes to...

Re: BF Mock Draft: 2009 With the 30th pick of the draft, the Tennessee Titans take: Michael Johnson, DE, Georgia Tech With Javon Kearse getting older and Kyle Vanden Bosch being injured last year, the Titans could do with a physical pass rusher. Other Titan's needs include CB, DT and WR and...

Re: Franchise Players/Free Agency/High Profile Releases Jason Taylor released by the Washington Redskins as reported by NFL Network. There should be many teams in the market for a DE/OLB, probably past his prime but definitely still a player, the Pats should definitely be interested and I think...

Re: Pats trade Cassel to Chiefs What is realistic in terms of a trade for Peppers? I'm unsure if I would be willing to give up our first rounder this year or next year, but I think that's what you would have to give up in order to get Peppers. If Peppers is not traded, would Carolina keep him...

Re: Franchise Players/Free Agency/High Profile Releases Oh sorry, I meant that its a shrewd move for the Pats. Depends on the draft pick no doubt, I'd be happy with a second/third rounder (or maybe a swap of 2nd rounders), I'm not as high on Vrabel as a player and I think his worth may be...

Re: Franchise Players/Free Agency/High Profile Releases Mike Vrabel will be traded to the Chiefs, interesting move this one. I'm not sure what KC would give up in this scenario, whether it be draft picks or a player but I think its a shrewd move (others may disagree). Pioli gets a veteran...

Re: Franchise Players/Free Agency/High Profile Releases I think the Giants D is going to be better this year, especially when they get a pretty good D-end back in Osi. If I'm correct, that allows Tuck or Kiwinuka to move out of end and into the linebacking corp? Defence wins championships, and...

Re: Franchise Players/Free Agency/High Profile Releases NFL.com reporting ex-Jets TE Chris Baker has signed with the Patriots. I'm not sure how good Baker is but he's an upgrade from Watson and Thomas for sure

Haynesworth gets 7-year, $100m deal from Redskins NFL.com reporting that Haynesworth is going to the Redskins at that massive price of $100m for 7 years. http://www.nfl.com/news/story?id=09000d5d80ef8064&template=without-video&confirm=true Does this move mean that Washington could be a...

Re: Cassel Franchised Yep, Cassel would have to agree to the deal from the other team in order for the trade to be finalised. He would be getting almost $15m from the one year with the Pats if he decided to sign the franchise tender and stay. The question here is that if Brady is fit, is...

Re: Cassel Franchised If the Pats trade Cassel to another team, there are two ways that this could occur. A team could decide to sign Cassel under the franchise agreement, in which case 2 first rounders would be sent to the Pats as compensation. I think that there is no chance that this will...

Is two receivers enough to make the offence good. Welker and Moss are good as a pair, but last season the next best was Jabar Gaffney and he dropped enough balls to lose us a few games. I think a veteran receiver with sure hands which is what Holt is would make the offence look more like the 07...

I'd certainly be interested in Holt and if he were to become a Patriot, would that make the Pats receiving corps the best in the league? I'm very much intrigued and would be happy if we did pick him up this off season

Re: Mock Draft I'm happy to take any team if you guys don't have enough

Re: Raiders name HC....... http://www.nfl.com/news/story?id=09000d5d80e8f6e0&template=without-video-with-comments&confirm=true Will Cable do the job at Oakland that the rest of them struggled with?

Re: Arizona Cardinals - Fluke or For Real?? I agree with Dan26 wholeheartedly, the NFL is the most even competition in the world and the rate at which things happens is amazing. On that note, even though the season was changed by the Brady injury, people may say that the SB loser from last...

Fiction: In my mind, Warner is a better QB than Leinart is. I don't personally rate Leinart, he looks to me that he has some potential, but I'm not sure he is one to apply it all to the football field. Fitzgerald will be a good receiver whoever the QB is, but I think he works better with Warner...

Re: (08/09) Superbowl XLIII: Arizona vs Pittsburgh Yeah, you're right about Haley having the pedigree and how he runs the offence. Russell would definitely benefit from having a HC like Haley, just saying would he get along with Al as well as Cable looks like he is. Al likes to be hands on and...

Re: (08/09) Superbowl XLIII: Arizona vs Pittsburgh From the news around, I've heard that Haley looks more likely at the Chiefs. Would Al like to bring in a coach that most probably would run something different than what he has in mind. There seems to be some link between Pioli and Haley...

I concur with this, having someone talk about the game itself would have been useful. I believe they had Sav last year as well, talking about his experience in the NFL game but not on the actual subject of punting. Maybe they should get Scott back in this somehow. Better yet, Ten should pay some...

Fiction: I would say that the NFC East is probably the best division in the NFC and maybe could be the best in the league. The AFC East however is weak, may be competitive but not the best division in the AFC. I would place the AFC South as being the best in the AFC, whilst the Steelers and...

I preferred SBS coverage of the SB to 10's this year, why didn't they stick with the same thing they've done all season and basically take the whole feed from the NBC/CBS. I don't understand why the feed wasn't live however, for the whole year I've had to watch games on delay (except for the...

Fiction: Brandon Jacobs is as important to the Giants as Plaxico Burress was. No way they let him leave, especially seeing how important he is to their running game. It seems that the more expendable back is Ward or Ahmad Bradshaw and look for them to leave, like Ryan Grant did. FOF: The AFC is...

Re: Best Active Player in the NFL - Right Now The perceived problem with the Saints is their defence. The offence is good at the moment, but once they get their pieces fit Colston, Devery Henderson, Bush, Shockey back they have the capability to be as explosive as the Pats of 07, I wouldn't...

Contrary to other opinions, I'm unsure that the Patriots would be a powerhouse under a system with no salary cap. Kraft and BB have been able to obtain the best out of the system by maximising the results within the system. Though Bob Kraft is a billionaire, there is an extent to his money and I...

Fiction: The Colts will finish 4th even when Manning is there, unfortunately the Titans and the Texans to me will finish higher than them this season and the Jags with some receivers are a team to watch out next year. Unless Manning can repeat this MVP season (which I am unsure of) and drag his...

Fiction: As long as Parcells is in Miami and Belichick is in New England, the Jets are going to have a hard time to win the division. The Jets need a QB, I wouldn't personally like to see Cassel in green but it seems like a fit to the Jets, I can't see any other QB that could lift them to be a...

Re: Best Active Player in the NFL - Right Now I think you could make an argument for Brees, Warner and Manning and I would not disagree with you necessarily. All these three have claims to have been the best QB over the season, but then you could also add Rivers who in my mind had no running...

Fiction: I think that there is every chance that Singletary will do a good job with the 49ers. Though there is unknowns regarding the Offensive coordinator, I think that the 49ers defence will be a very good one, especially with Singletary as one of the greatest linebackers, and Willis will be a...

Re: Tom Brady Could Miss 2009 Season As Well. I'm with you there, it was a fumble. Officials called the tuck rule launching the Patriots run as we know it today. Without that play, history would have been different. That is what you're talking about right? However, the Raiders went to the SB...
