One week and ~20 hours from the draft, we've almost made it. Talk about how dumb Goodell is and how much less hype you are about the draft than you should be ITT

David Carr was given an extremely long leash due to the situation of the Texans franchise and the money devoted to him. The reason he stuck around for forever was because he's a backup QB. Carr wasn't an exceptionally good prospect to begin with.

Carr was absolutely a good prospect coming out of college. Ideal size, big arm, good footwork, quick release. Unfortunately he proved difficult to coach because he listened to his dad first and the team coaches second, and having no offensive line put the fear of god into him

Yes. If Manziel puts up 48 and his defense gives up 49, he's a choke artist just like Romo. I'm sure there's a dedicated team of bloggers working on a "Tony Homo"-like nickname for him as we speak.

Hopefully it all ends with Tony on a better team.

Football would be better if it were more like Mutant League Football

...

Are you waiting for me to rescind that? It would own

e: re basketball, saying the last five minutes are all that matters is essentially saying you only care about the outcome of the game and not the sick plays that happen every couple minutes or more, so might as well just look it up after it's over in that case

Honestly Mike Williams is probably better than Stevie Johnson and pair him with Sammy Watkins and you have a nice mix of jump ball possession receiver and speed guy. Plus they have Robert Woods too.

Yeah but Revis is back in the division and Stevie seems to be the only guy in the NFL who can clown Revis

Eli, Rivers, and Ben all aren't very good compared to the QBs that are in the HoF. They are, however, good for right now, and that's enough to get them in. Ben and Eli are undoubtedly Hall of Famers, Rivers will never sniff it unless he gets a Super Bowl ring, and Romo is a joke if you honestly think he'll get in with his resume.

Super Bowl wins rule the HoF. You need to be exceptionally amazing to get in without them, meaning 7-10 pro bowl selections, 3-7 all pros, winning MVP, DMVP, OMVP, or setting statistical records over and over.

Andre Johnson is going to miss on the HoF isn't he? :(

That says he $21 million in dead money next year and a $20.5 million cap hit. Where are they getting the 500k number?

Also, it isn't going to happen. They will get rid of Suh first.

His cap hit is his salary plus his bonuses. His dead money is the sum total of all his remaining bonuses (guaranteed money) accelerated to that year
