NFL 2009-10 Season

Yup, just came to post that link, he's not expected to be traded, so that was somewhat of an interesting coincidence. Doesn't mean it shouldn't happen though, they should get whatever they can for the guy that they don't deem is their starter. After his performances (against good teams) his trade value is likely far below what they'd want for him though.

Nothing is ever set in stone, but since Mangini came out and said he's not being traded, I'll believe that for now.

On a more realistic reason for the home sale, I bet it has a lot to do with Quinn realizing that he won't be reaching the playing incentives he expected of $11 million. Downsizing is the smart thing to do, especially if the whole NFL thing doesn't work out.

Paul,
Did you catch the Wolverine to Buckeye connection last night ?
(Henne to Ginn )

He would have made a good Wolverine.

Am I the only one who thinks the Lions are going to beat the Rams by three touchdowns?

I think the Lions are going to beat the Rams ...... yes, but by 3 TD's ?
I've seen years that they don't even score 3 TD's a game.

Braylon Edwards: Leave me Alone Cleveland!

Since being traded to the New York Jets, much of the Braylon Edwards talk has revolved around the perception of how the wide receiver is a totally different player than he was in Cleveland. Excited about his team, actually making plays, saying all of the right things… and tweeting non-stop.

While many focus on Edwards’ five catches for 65 yards, a lot of fans that use the Twitter medium have seen a sudden increase in Edwards’ activity. And while his first wave of updates involved how excited he was to be a member of the Jets, his most recent wave has featured messages specifically written to Browns fans.

Only been here a week but I’m lovin the jets fans. J-E-T-S jets jets jets

everyone keeps textin and emailin and calling me with things that are being said about me back in cleveland right now.

I would appreciate it if disgruntled Cleveland fans would stop sending messages. Fact of the matter is I’m a jet now. Go tweet Josh Cribbs

Waaahhhh!!!! Boo who Braylon. Obviously the honeymoon phase is still going strong in NY, but I can't wait to see his fragile ego MELT when they get to see "Bad Braylon".

Here's hoping you can honor Braylon's request and leave him alone from now on...

1st Place Bengals Facing Blackout?!

Even the bandwagon Bungle fans can't sell out the stadium to see their first place team?! Wow. As much flack as the Browns get for being so miserable, at least we support our team. Good times or bad......

The Cincinnati Bengals, in first place in the AFC North and one of the NFL's biggest surprises with a 4-1 record, are facing a blackout for Sunday's home game against the Houston Texans.

Bills Fans Rent BillBoard to Rip Team!

I love the passion of this city.....

The display will feature a message that reads, "It's time to clean house, RALPH," referring to Wilson. Next to that will be a checklist of three names: Jauron; the team's chief college scout Tom Modrak; and vice president of pro personnel John Guy.

There's some talk about Josh Cribbs being traded to Miami... there's not a real need for him there unless they intend to swap one of their WRs in the deal who may or may not be named Ginn.

Schefter's response on Twitter...

Adam_Schefter: Is his home for sale, too?

I have to agree with them.

Raiders are blacked out for the 2nd week in a row. 31st ranked defense with newly acquired Richard Seymour, and 1st round pick DHB has been thrown to 20 times and has only caught 2 of them as part of the 32nd ranked offense.

Bengals have received an extension to sell the remaining 3000 tickets. They're putting this on the economy, and now that people are going to the games they're opting to go to the good ones. Makes you wonder how they'll fill the stadium when the Chiefs and Lions come to town this year if that's the case.

Aint gonna happen. Cribbs value far exceeds any Miami WR.

Besides Joe Thomas, Cribbs is our best player. Plus, he's got 3 years left on his contract. In order for us to give him up, the deal would have to be earth shatteringly in our favor.

 

[dfergie]

Finally got around to watching Joe Buck... the 2nd time around wasn't bad... Broadway Joe, Elway and Marino in one session and J.J. & Mark Cuban in another... (should have had Jackie "the joke man" though )

Due to the fact that the NFL has a caste system this year whereby the bad teams are just unbelievably bad, perhaps we should make a separate thread just for them. All the consternation, commiserating, and speculation for next year can be confined to that thread.

The main NFL thread can be for teams that actually have a chance this year.

I cannot remember a time when there was such a divide between the 'haves' and the 'have-nots'.

Looks like him/his agent has gone public on the topic.

Cleveland Browns Josh Cribbs' agent says team being "unfair'' | Cleveland Browns - cleveland.com - - cleveland.com

"It is unfair for the Browns to hold Joshua back. They should either give him an extension or allow another team to acquire him. Their current position of doing nothing is no longer fair or appropriate. We are asking them to give him the extension he's earned."

With Braylon gone he's the best player on the team (and was playing like it before he left anyways) and wants to be paid accordingly or moved to a club where his efforts have some chance of paying dividends.

Bengals have avoided a blackout, selling out their 47th game in a row.

This leaves the Jags and Raiders as the only blacked out markets this week i believe.

Careful what you wish for. Your JETS just lost 2 in a row. They're on the verge of becoming one of those "have-nots".
