Geoff Grace Posted February 14, 2011 Posted February 14, 2011 More than a week has passed since Super Bowl XLV, and it's time to start a new NFL football thread. With the possibility of a lockout looming, there's no way to know how much of a season lies ahead, if any. But that doesn't have to stop us from talking football. Here are today's headlines: Sources: Union proposal gaffe led to talk's end NFL Notebook: Beyond draft, nothing is guaranteed Imprisoned WR Plaxico Burress in 'terrific shape,' and seeks NFL return Titans hire away Longhorns' Gray to be new DC Packers extend GM Ted Thompson's deal Best, Geoff My Blue Someday appears on Apple Music | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon

kanker. Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Colts cut Bob Sanders My wife said "What if he comes back strong with another team and has a chip on his shoulder?" I said "If he has a chip on his shoulder, he'll probably be out at least another 2 seasons...." Dude only played 3 out of every 7 games in his career, didn't even make it through the first quarter of the first game of last season. Steroids are a hell of a drug.

MikeT156 Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 Bob Sander's biggest problem is that he is small for the NFL. So he gets injured a lot. He has gotten to expensive for the Colts to pay for the few games he is healthy enough to play throughout a season. IIRC, hes only played about 9 games in the last 3 seasons. That doesn't cut it.

Cheers, Mike T. 5 to 1 he signs for minimum with the Pats for the purpose of whipping Meriweather into shape and resurrect his career. He stays there and stays healthy for 2 years, then goes off and signs a huge contract with the Raiders, and is never heard from again. A bunch of loud, obnoxious music I USED to make with friends.
ProfD Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Despite the labor talks, teams have already started unloading their dead weight. Especially over-paid vets with injury problems. I believe this is definitely a sign of things to come as the NFL restructures. The best players will keep their huge salaries. Everybody else will have to prove themselves. With every team having a bunch of hungry players, I'm not sure how that will affect wins and losses with cats trying to get paid. But, I'd imagine it works in favor of league parity. Of course, that doesn't mean Panthers, Bengals and Browns fans should get overly excited. Those teams still have a lot of rebuilding to do.

I wonder if the Pack is thinking of Clay Matthews' younger bro as a replacement at LB. The San Diego Union Tribune thinks the Chargers will give him a look too.

Griffinator Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 The decision handed down by the judge regarding whether the league could still collect the $4B from the networks if no games were played tells me a lockout isn't going to happen. Suddenly, the owners have something big to lose if this season gets flushed. A bunch of loud, obnoxious music I USED to make with friends.

GovernorSilver Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 Kevin beat me to it. A couple of "Woot! Superbowl baby!" posts in Chargerland and the rest along the lines of "Great. He'll be on IR by week 3". I think Sanders' primary role will be to mentor young safety Stuckey and add some depth to a safety corps that isn't star studded but executes the system really well collectively
