Patriots and DT Vince Wilfork restructured his contract. It's a new 3-year, $22.5M deal, per source. Wilfork stays a Patriot.

MJD and DMC on the same team. I used to really want this. Now I'm not so sure. At least if there isn't any possible way they couldn't both injure themselves within several weeks of each other.

How many interceptions can you throw though when you're put in the game though? You have to be able to get the ball out to a defender before you're sacked, and that takes at least some football skills.

My dump off skills are legendary. I can see a whole field of open receivers past the 10 yard line and dump it off to my lovely out route as well as Sanchez. I say as well because he's the master at that.

Our throwing left INT rates would probably be similar.

Danieal Manning has agreed to take a pay cut for the final year of his contract, I'm not seeing any numbers yet though. Thankfully this means the Shiloh Keo Experience is not going to continue on into 2014

Also remember when MJD ripped Cutler for coming out of the NFCCG when he tore his MCL? Memories...

haha look at this guy.

The RB market is so depressed that a guy who ran for 1000 yards last season signed a deal paying him $3 mil per year. MJD's deal is probably peanuts and we're only paying McFadden a $1.5 mil base salary.

MJD went to high school 20 miles from the Raiders stadium, still lives in the Bay area and mowed John Madden's lawn as a kid. Maybe he just wanted to come home.

As Dennis Allen said, the only way to beat the Broncos right now is to keep Peyton on the sideline. We will need to run the ball 40 times a game so I ain't mad.

I never count Vick in that category because unlike Romo or Cutler Vick did something worth hating him for. The other two didn't (outside playing for the cowboys, Romo you bum)

That's usually how I get people to shut the hell up.

I start naming the list of Bears QB's since 1992 that I essentially have memorized. And ask them if they would rather have any of them over Cutler.

I've had one say one say Orton, and one say Jim Miller(my personal favorite.)

Tony Romo is never going to win a superbowl, unless he gets traded. Tom Brady could always backup Eli.
