Ahh gotcha.

They talked about on Sportscenter but didn’t mention that part yet.

Re: NFL Off Topic

Giving bummy quarterbacks roster spots is Jon Gruden’s specialty. People forget he cycled through and feuded with many QB’s in his mediocre run with the Bucs.

Peterman, though? What, HOW? This guy has shown absolutely nothing but an incredible ability to throw interceptions and lose football games. There’s nothing else on tape except excruciatingly bad decision making on a regular, consistent basis. He’s not a veteran so there’s no mentor angle here. Why is he getting another shot?

He's getting another shot because the Raiders season is over with and Gruden was beyond infatuated with Peterman when he came out of college. Being at work I can't seem to locate the quotes but if you are able to find them, and read how glowing his reviews were of Peterman, it will at least shed some light on why he seems to think he deserves a shot. Mix that and his ego thinking he can turn him into something when someone else couldn't are the driving reasons for the signing I'm sure.

Re: NFL Off Topic

Josh Gordon posts hes stepping away from football to focus on his mental health, possible ban looming.

Hopefully he can get the help he needs. His football career is likely done, but he can still live a healthy life if he gets his mental health in order.

Re: NFL Off Topic

His career is done. This is beyond some, "they should just let them smoke weed,'" debate talk. This guy needed help way back in high school, but everyone just enabled him because of his elite football skills.

Re: NFL Off Topic

I agree Josh Gordon's career is over and done with. The guy seriously needs some help and playing football is obviously not helping him with that. I wish him luck but man, he really flushed HOF talent completely down the drain.

Re: NFL Off Topic

Josh Gordon’s story is actually sad, man. The Browns aren’t my team but they are my hometown team and for a long time he was the only reason Cleveland was relevant in the NFL. I really thought being in NE would help fix him up a little.

Re: NFL Off Topic

I was listening to a podcast the other day and found out the NFL receiving leader is Julio Jones and by a wide margin too. The guy has over 1500 yards but it's the quietest 1500 i've seen in some time. I think part of it has to do with the Falcons play and the fact that he only has 6 TD receptions.

Re: NFL Off Topic

He only got his first TD in week 13 or something crazy, too.

Week 9. But I think that was his first TD since week 13 of last season

Re: NFL Off Topic

Yeah I think in Week 7 or 8, he broke the record for most receiving yards without a TD to start the season.

Re: NFL Off Topic

There are reports saying Harbaugh is staying in Baltimore. Good move there IMO. It seems like he's all in with Jackson and it's best to stay the course rather than upsetting things with another coaching staff.

Re: NFL Off Topic

Per PFT.com

The San Francisco Giants have confirmed that they have had discussions with the Raiders about the NFL team playing the 2019 season at AT&T Park.

“There has been initial interest expressed in exploring the opportunity of the Raiders playing at AT&T Park,” the Giants said in a statement, via Kerry Crowley of the Bay Area News Group. “Many details would need to be figured out. The Giants want to do what’s best for Bay Area fans and would be open to the concept just as we hosted Cal Football in 2011 when Memorial Stadium in Berkeley was being renovated.”

One of the details to be worked out is whether the 49ers would allow the Raiders to play in their territorial market for a season.

The Raiders pulled their $7.5 million offer to Oakland for use of the Oakland Coliseum for next season after the city sued the NFL and all 32 franchises over the team’s announced move to Las Vegas in 2020.

Owner Mark Davis said last week that “all options are open.”

For scheduling purposes, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said the league needs an answer by “early January or February.”

Heh, just a handful of BART stops from where they play now.

Lol. An SF team already screwed the A's move to San Jose, they could at least let the Raiders play in Santa Clara for one season.

Re: NFL Off Topic

Apparently Dan Quinn is staying put in Atlanta and they'll make changes with the coaching staff. Er....I'm not sure I like this idea. It seems kinda like putting lipstick on a pig.
