    Broncos DE Hunter hospitalized after stabbing

    I'd like to know what Marshall and Hunter were doing to these girls to get stabbed. Neither want to press charges so they obviously fucked up somehow. Also, bitches be crazy.

    ESPN's Top 10 QB's

    Hence why I said "I have Romo ahead of Freeman, so I'm not going to say Freeman is a better QB, but if someone was going to make an argument they would probably bring up these points about Freeman:" I'm not making an argument that Freeman is better than Romo right now. 21 April 2011, Topic: TGP's Top 10 NFL Quarterbacks. Your list: And Durant's list: You both bitched about people having Romo so low on their lists in that thread also.

    ESPN's Top 10 QB's

    I have Romo ahead of Freeman, so I'm not going to say Freeman is a better QB, but if someone was going to make an argument they would probably bring up these points about Freeman: 1. He's a superior athlete. He can break tackles very well, and he can run the ball anywhere from 10-30+ yards when he needs to. He has a great arm, and he was exceptionally accurate for a 2nd year player that threw the ball to a bunch of rookies. There were a lot of dropped balls throughout the season so his lolstats won't reflect that at 61.4%. 2. He's a good decision maker. Seriously, the guy only threw 6 INT in his 2nd season. Not only that but he never over-fixated on one receiver like a lot of QB's with a top-notch guy does. He spread the ball around when he needed too. Williams obviously got it more because he was better at getting open, but Free had no issue going somewhere else with the ball. He's also already has a pretty high football IQ. He changed a lot of players at the line of scrimmage, pointed out coverage, and told his rookie RB where he needed to block on many plays. Basically, he did things you'd expect from a 5-year veteran. 3. He's calm under pressure. We hear about Joe Cool and Matty Ice all the time, but I've seen both of them lose their cool before. Even in his atrocious rookie season Freeman never lost his. The guy had a crazy amount of come-back wins last year, and if it wasn't for a number of rookie mistakes by certain players around him he would have won even more. But he's a very vocal leader on and off the field and took a lot of the blame for the other players. He's certainly not a choker in the regular season under any circumstance. I honestly can't wait to see him in a playoff game to see how he handles it. When looking at his stats, keep in mind it was his 2nd season, 1st season under a system that was put in place in the off-season, and with the exception of Winslow, all his receivers were rookies, the RB behind him was a rookie (caddy came in here and there), and half his O-line were backups/rookies. They did some things last year that is unprecedented and it was in large part due to Josh Freeman. As I said before, I wouldn't put Freeman above Romo right now but if Freeman continues his progression, which with his work ethic I have no doubt he will, he'll easily surpass Romo and many other QB's that are seen as currently better than him. I also got to say, I don't quite get why Durant and Bware keeps bitching about people not having Romo above certain players, or on their list entirely when you're clearly being overly-biased. Romo isn't as good as you seem to think. There's plenty of people out there that would argue you're both idiots for putting Romo over Big Ben and Brees, two easily superior top-5 QB's, that unlike Romo has proven they are winners. EDIT: I was looking at vids and found this funny ass video of Romo. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzg0GewAA7w

    Who has the best running game in the NFC East?

    I'd pick the Giants but Bradshaw fumbled way too much and Jacobs acted like a little bitch. Cowboys and Redskins have no argument. Going with the Eagles.

    Who has the best running game in the AFC South?

    Man this one is hard. We got MJD, Foster and the Texans RB depth, and CJ2k. I usually go with the depth, but I can't go against the latest record breaker. Titans.

    Draft Sleepers?

    Yeah this guy has some great work ethic and instincts. He has a rod in his leg though from removing the tumor so he's slower. Didn't run to good at the combine and he moved a little rigid. If it wasn't for that I'd have full faith that he could be dominant.

    ESPN's Top 10 QB's

    ESPN just caters to the masses that don't know crap about football. If your name is popular for one season, your on a top-10 list. It's really hard for me to take this garbage seriously.
  8. Shotgun

    Draft Sleepers?

    Yeah he's def a 3-4 NT. I can see the Steelers or Eagles snatching him up as high as the 2nd. He might drop to the 3rd though due to work ethic concerns.

    Rivera hinting at Steve Smith trade?

    I don't really see this as an indication they are looking to trade Steve. If the right offer came they of course would, but he's past his prime. It's understandable they would be looking for a future #1 WR now rather than later.

    Who has the best Head Coach in the NFC East?

    Little early for the cowboys and redskins. I'll go with the Eagles. Andy Reid may have not won a superbowl, but he's been to one, as well as multiple championship games, and always finds a way to win during the regular season.

    OLine Prospect, Marcus Cannon, Diagnosed With Cancer

    Damn, chemo :/ he's likely to go undrafted then. He won't be in football shape by the time that's done. He'll likely get signed on as a FA when he gets healthy again though.

    Georgia DE Houston failed Combine drug test

    What a dumb ass. Dude just made a multi-million dollar mistake and for what, to get high one night? Talk about a bad decision maker.

    Gabbert's stock slipping?

    Not surprised. He is horribly overrated and shouldn't even be going before the late 1st, if that. He's nothing but the product of college football. He did almost nothing last year but dunk the ball off and let the receiver take it a few yards. That's why his stats are the way they are. Decent completion percentage, almost 3200 yards throwing and only 16 TD's. That's pretty messed up considering he threw an average of almost 40 times a game.

    Draft Sleepers?

    Trying to mention some no one else has yet... Aldrick Robinson WR - He's short like Desean Jackson but is fast, fluid, can jump high, and has good hands. Has the potential to be a top-notch return man and a good #3 WR, perhaps even fast enough to be a #2 with proper coaching and route running. Vincent Brown WR - People don't like his size, but he has good route running and can catch the tough passes. Great after the catch. Jonathan Baldwin WR - All the size and talent, but lacks the work ethic. Potential drama queen according to many sources. Boom-or-bust prospect. Jurrel Cassey DT - Will be a great nose tackle if he improves his work ethic. Needs to improve stamina and leg muscles, but he is still fast even at 6'1 and 305 lbs. and VERY strong with good awareness. Kenrick Ellis DT - A lot of character issues in the past, but he's a big, strong, quick-footed guy. Great at stopping the run and while he won't get the sack numbers, he'll likely help improve the sack totals of everyone around him. Dontay Moch OLB - One of the most athletic guys in the draft this year. Most of his issues can be fixed through coaching. Greg Jones LB - Good instincts and hustle. Has average speed and strength. Has leadership qualities a lot of teams look for. Has some problems that need to be coached out of him. According to many he'll be a better fit in a Tampa-2 scheme.

    Record 25 draft prospects to attend NFL draft

    I get why people projected to go top-10 want to go....but if there's a good chance you can drop into really late first/2nd/3rd round I don't understand why they would want to go. Better off spending the moment with family than going crazy in the green room waiting for your name to be called.

    Patriots may have a deal in place for #28 pick

    I find it rather hilarious.

    Best Player in the NFL, Final Four

    Quite impossible to really say any of them is better than the others.....but I'll go with Polamalu/Rodgers.

    Lockout to be lifted

    For a lot of teams sake hopefully the stay/appeal won't go through. There's lots of new coaches that need to get their players some playbooks/info.

    Patriots may have a deal in place for #28 pick

    I agree with your assertion that it's the Raiders going after a QB. They would be the kind of team to do something like this. And they don't have a 1st, so...

    LOL Sports Insomnia

    I think the only players in that list I wouldn't take over Romo is Fitzpatrick, Orton, Flacco, and Cutler. Romo has more talent than both Fitz and Orton, Flacco is overrated, and Cutler is just too much of a whiny bitch. Everyone else is either just as talented, or even more talented, and Romo still has his chock artist stigma.

    Without a doubt it's the giants.
