http://www.vsngaming.com/2008/12/simulatin...ldcard-weekend/ What is your guys' take on the results? The only one I disagree with is that the Eagles are not going to lose to the Vikings. After the impressive show they put on last week, I just dont think it'll happen.

I like the hiring, but it seems like they are replacing Shanny with a much younger Shanny. Both are great offensive minded coaches who are great with QB's and connect with their players. Now, I'm thinking Romeo Crennel as their DC.

Adam Schefter Will Delhomme return to Carolina next season? Posted: January 11th, 2009 | Adam Schefter | Tags: Carolina Panthers, Derek Anderson, Jake Delhomme, Michael Vick Streeter Lecka/Getty Images Tampa Bay is no longer the lone NFC South team expected to be looking for a quarterback this offseason. With his woeful performance Saturday night, Panthers quarterback Jake Delhomme made Tarvaris Jackson look like Bart Starr. In fact, the five interceptions Delhomme threw Saturday night were two more than Starr threw in his entire postseason career that consisted of 213 passing attempts. With his 39.1 passer rating (which seemed more like 0.0), Delh…

Just wanted to be the first to come up with this one !! Herm Edwards is out !!!

Trade out of the 1st for a 2nd, 4th, and 5th. Sign Jordan Gross. 2. Paul Kruger, DE, Utah ---The guy is a machine and has been compared to Aaron Kampman. 2. Louis Delmas, FS, Western Michigan ---Big hitter, leader, and ball-hawk. Can you ask for much more from a FS? 3. Brian Robiskie, WR, Ohio State ---I'm really starting to like this kid. He is 6'2 200 but he has great hands and is a great route runner. Perfect compliment to Hester. 3. Trevor Canfield, RG, Cincinnati ---He is a great run blocker and that's what we need. 4. Zack Follet, OLB, California ---Leader and is pretty athletic. 4. Gartrell Johnson, RB, Colorado State ---After watching …

Interesting read from Toub's interview posted on ESPN. Toub is gonna fix Hester My favorite part: DT: We're going to emphasize with him to get a first down; get the ball up the field north and south, get 10 yards and then make a big play from there. If Devin can get that in his mind, then the return TDs will be there again. He spent far too much time going backwards and sideways, thinking he could outrun anyone and everyone...even someone with a great angle on him. Hester is super, but he's not superman.

NFL Films best of the coaches on the sideline Notice it's the best. If Lovie were in there, it would be a lot of mumbling and stuff about "braaaains".

He wasn't good at all. He said he liked Rex, but that was about it. He was a total jerk and asked Waddle if he played in the NFL and pretty much said he wasn't any good. I don't want this ass on our team, sorry.

The Bucs have informed free agent Jeff Garcia that he is no longer in their plans. "With a new head coach, they want somebody pulling the trigger that they can mold," said Garcia. The 39-year-old will likely have to compete for a job no matter where he lands, possibly Minnesota. The Jets have been suggested as a potential suitor, but Garcia's noodle arm makes New York a poor fit.

i looked around and couldnt find it..

Free agent Julius Peppers reportedly will refuse to sign a long-term contract with any club not on his four-team wish list "under any circumstance." Adam Schefter notes that Peppers already turned down a deal from Carolina that would've trumped Jared Allen's, so he's not playing games. The Broncos, Packers, Chiefs, and Dolphins are positioned the best to get him. Source: NFL.com

Panthers LT Jordan Gross revealed Thursday that he has completed a multi-year contract to stay in Carolina. "We're done," he said. Gross' deal is expected to make him the NFL's second highest paid offensive lineman, behind only Dolphins left tackle Jake Long. Gross made his first Pro Bowl last season and was voted first-team All Pro. Feb. 19 - 1:00 pm et Source: Rock Hill Herald

No Hail Mary here: Hanie in position to be the No. 2 quarterback After Orton returned from his injury I was disappointed he did not regain his earlier form. I thought it was reported he was nearing full recovery from his ankle injury. If that was the case why was his play so bad compared to earlier in the season? In this interview I see he was no where near 100% after returning from the injury. Heck, he is only reported to be about 95% now: I am pleased he is indicating Hanie will get a chance to be the #2. I know this upsets many, but quite frankly, it excites me. I also think we will draft a QB prospect on day 2.

As the new GM I resign St Clair, and add in free agency: Weaver/FB Floyd/WR G Wilson/SS E Wilson/FS and my draft is: 1----Oher/OT-Miss 2----Krueger/DE-Utah 3---Jennings/RB-Liberty 3b--Follett/LB-Cal 4---Knox/WR-Alb Cristian 5---Boone/OT-Ohio State 6---McGee/QB-Texas A M 7---Gill/DT-NW There isnt anything worth getting in FA for a QB so we might as well develope one of the three QBs we have the roster. We add Oher who could play RT or LT if Williams dont pan out and have Boone to back up the right tackle. Move St Clair to LG to help bring along Williams and Bruen…

The motto of the offseason is "Get Younger & Get Better." Sign WR Reggie Williams - Still young with a great skill set, just hasn't lived up to the hype. Given the Bears desperate need for a big WR, I'm willing to give him a shot. Sign WR David Patten - Still has good hands and knows how to get open, and he doesn't seem to be the kind of player to pout if he doesn't get PT at this point in his career. I think Hester could learn a ton from him, at the very least, and he could be a nice "go-to" guy on third down if he can stay healthy. Sign OT Ray Willis - Player RG and RT in Seattle last year. Pencil him in at RT unless a stud we draft is clearly ready, …

Dolphins | G. Wilson agrees to terms Thu, 26 Feb 2009 04:16:20 -0800 Alex Marvez, of FOXSports.com, reports the Miami Dolphins have agreed to terms with free-agent S Gibril Wilson (Raiders). Terms of the deal are not yet available. One less Safety to choose from.

I don't know if they are any good or even whether or not they would fit our system but they are being talked about. They are much bigger than our deffensive ends. Canty, Chris DE UFA 6-7 304 4th Season DAL Olshansky, Igor DE UFA 6-6 309 5th Season SD Babin, Jason DE UFA 6-3 267 5th Season KC TBD

...and another one's gone. http://www.rotoworld.com/content/HeadLines...L&hl=140875 Bucs re-signed SS Jermaine Phillips. Terms have not yet been disclosed. Phillips received little free agent interest, with only the Chargers and Seahawks sniffing around. Instead he'll return to the starting lineup at strong safety in Tampa, with Sabby Piscitelli staying in a reserve role. Mar. 5 - 6:14 pm et Source: Tampa Tribune
