Obnoxious Football Trash Talk Thread

[wildwest450]

I said it three months ago, I'll say it again today. Denver. With Tebow to Jax for a 1st.

Tennessee for 3 reasons.

1- Gets to play the Colts twice a year
2- Thicker air and better weather
3- Much better receiving core, Britt will be healthy, and has beast potential.

Plus, stupid Bud Adams already said he will give him the entire state if need be.

If he doesn't sign with Tennessee I want to see bud Adams flip Peyton the bird.

 

[LMGK]

I think bud and the bills owner, what's his name, Skellator or Ralph Wilson, are characters.

 

[xsists]

Williams to the Bills.

 

[cmendo2005]

Everyone is hating on the Bills but whether you agree or not they're contenders now great off season so far for them

 

[paulthenurse]

Peyton to TN for 'Life'??'!!! WTF?

Nobody is a contender until the season's in full swing.

See 2011 Philidelphia Eagles

 

[cmendo2005]

That's not true, the majority of actual football fans knew the eagles weren't gonna be last season, you need time to adjust to the system especially when the majority of your top players are new. The Bills main guys aside from Williams already have experience and cohesion in the system...Especially with an off season now too

 

[Randall]

Yeah but the bills are gonna just choke on a phatty again this season.

 

[paulthenurse]

Anyone up for Guinness's at J J Foley's tomorrow morning?

 

[Cape Brewing]

I bet people all over Colorado are confused by the loud noises that can be heard all over the state. Only folks at the Bronco headquarters truly know what it is... Elway... in his officer POWER ******* over getting out of the Tebow situation.

 

[stratslinger]

On that note, any predictions for what they actually do with Tebow once the smoke clears? Keep him in the wings for a year or two, just in cace Peyton's neck isn't as healed as everyone hopes it is? Try to trade him now for draft picks? Burn him in effigy?

Peyton pussed out not picking SF. Didn't want to have the drama of losing to his little brother occasionally. But I suspect he could foresee Harbaugh not giving him his typical free reign QB play calling. Or maybe they wouldn't pay what he wanted.

Plus, Bird now gets to claim to be the great prognosticator.

Still negotiating how many millions he gets, pretty sketchy situation if you ask me. The smart thing to do is keep Tebow but is it going to be affordable? I doubt it.

I tell you what, I turned on ESPN this afternoon and started doing the Sam Cassell Testicle Dance. I ain't that smart, but sometimes I get one right!

Pats just signed Robert Gallery and Donte Stallworth.

Start fitting the Pats for next year's super bowl rings!!!

(using huge amount or sarcasm)

 

[the_bird]

... pretty sure OchoCinco's gonna be a free agent before he starts filming his new reality show...

Three new wideouts; Lloyd will definitely help, Gonzalez is a helluva player when healthy (which means that he sucks), and now Stallworth... think my boy, Tiquan, is going to have a hard time making the team next year. Wonder about Branch, too.

Plus, they signed that other tight end with the idea that Hernandez is basically going to be a wide receiver.

Was really hoping they'd grab LaRon Landry; defensive backfield still needs a LOT of help.

 

[Cape Brewing]

Landry is due at Foxboro in the next few days. It sounds like that deal is likely

 

[the_bird]

No, he signed with the JETS today. 1 year, $4M. A little expensive; he's not THAT good.

 

[Bulls Beers]

Adam Schefter ‏ reports he just signed with the Jets...One year 4 million.

 

[Cape Brewing]

Oh jeez. Didn't see that. Whoooops


Yeah, Billy better start looking at the D. Enough receivers now!

 

[the_bird]

... maybe this means Edelman will be lining up full-time in the defensive backfield.

 

[Cape Brewing]

How would you like to be a Phins fan right now? All I hear about are all of these free agents that visit and walk away just saying, "ehhhhh. No thanks". ESPN keeps hinting that players want to play football, not attend a Jimmy Buffett concert so they are all passing.

 

[the_bird]

Psss. Bernie would be all over that!

... any chance you think Welker ends up getting traded? It wouldn't be out of character for BB. Not that any of these wideouts they've signed can hold Welker's jock (unless he asks nicely)... but that's a lot of emphasis on one particular position. And I know that Gonzo probably will tweak a hammy when he laces up his cleats, but still... getting a little bit of an ominous feeling?

I'm a little surprised they didn't go for broke and try to sign Mike Wallace. I still wonder... if you could trade Welker for a second-round pick (or maybe even a third), you'd then try hard to sign Wallace, wouldn't you? You'd give up a 1st rounder to get Wallace, but would get back some of that from trading Welker.

 

[Cape Brewing]

I don't think there is actually that much emphasis on the position. I think Ocho and Branch are done. Yeah they have the TEs but how many solid WRs do they have now? Welker, Lloyd... Hernandez? I will be mildly surprised if Stallworth even makes the team. Gonzales (you would assume).

It's not a ton.

 

[Bulls Beers]

I'm hearing rumblings that Tebow might possibly come to the Patriots. WTF would Belichick want him? Seems like a good guy, but go somewhere else.

 

[Cape Brewing]

Jets need a QB...

Dump law firm and pick up Tebow on the cheap. Use him as a running back that can catch out of the backfield. He's a big kid and a good football player. BB likes guys like that. I don't think they would even consider him as a QB. Who else would want him as QB?

I'm not convinced his ego will let him play anything other than QB. I just don't see him as being the kind of guy who's going to willingly play at a less-glamorous position.

But he really could be a great player as an H-back, kind of in Aaron Hernandez' role. Run the ball a little, but not as a primary running back. I don't see Tebow as a full-time running back; he's great with the ball in space, but I don't see him as being a great rusher between the tackles; too upright. But in an H-back role, get him the ball on some quick slants, get him some screen passes, maybe a couple rushes, he could do really well in that role. But, it's not the kind of role that's going to keep you out in front of everyone.

EDIT: He also had the third-most fumbles of any NFL QB last year, thirteen (in basically twelve games). Pretty much anti-Law Firm.

His rushing average wasn't spectacular in the second half of the year, either; the last six regular season games, he only had a rushing average >4.1/carry once (versus NE); the first six games, he was averaging 7.1/carry. It's not exactly comparable, his rushes from the option versus rushing as a traditional RB, but teams started figuring out how to stop his running game pretty quick (only 13 yards, on five carries, against NE in the playoffs).

 

[stratslinger]

Dump law firm

Heresy!!!!

Why oh why would you advise dumping a productive back who has been very good at blitz pick-up and protecting his QB in general when the ball isn't in his hands and who has NEVER fumbled the ball in a four year NFL career?

This does not compute.
