Re: NFL Off Topic

Re: RGIII. At this point I feel for him. He can't win for losing. Takes the brunt of the "blame" but says something like we all need to look in the mirror and I need help and that is back stabbing. I don't see it like that, but I am not partial. At this point he should just be like Lynch and Foster. Say the same canned **** over and over again.

To be honest, I don't even care at this point. Griffin played pretty bad yesterday, the Oline played pretty bad yesterday, the secondary played pretty bad yesterday and anyone not named Keenan Robinson in the front 7 played pretty bad yesterday, the kicker was pretty bad yesterday. Bottom line the team is pretty damn bad. I don't know why anyone in the national media is paying this much attention to a 3-9 team and a 3rd year QB who has played 3.25 games under a new coach and in a new offense.

Getting to the point where I'm just gonna watch the Red Zone channel and just watch the all-22 later in the week.

This reminds me of the time when Jameis Winston stole crab legs from a store

Except Winston wasn't really, really drunk.

Brown's release RB Ben Tate so guess its up to the rookie rb's to handle the load he lasted 10 games.

Tate has been throwing a fit about getting carries. Screamed how he wanted the ball against his old team Houston but was dropped in the backfield the only times he carried

Good.

Loser, cancer, and just not that talented.

Time for Crowell to get the bulk of the carries.

Re: NFL Off Topic

That backfield has been impossible to figure out so far. Crowell and West need more carries anyway. I like both of those kids going forward. Scary that they're only rookies!

My buddy suggested Tate coming to BUF, but I don't think he's the answer even if he somewhat fills a hole or need going forward. I didn't know he had an attitude with not being the guy (signed to be or not, you're on a winning team -- shut up!), so that makes me not want him even more.

Re: NFL Off Topic

I'd think there'd be a bunch of waiver claims for him, thought he looked pretty good in Houston. Maybe just needs the right fit to be successful.

Re: NFL Off Topic

Amazing how if Peyton Manning said that exact thing he said in that presser, not a peep would be uttered from the media about it.

Not true. About 8 years ago, Indy lost a home playoff game to Pittsburgh and Peyton said something to the effect of "We had some protection issues" after the game. He took some heat for that.

Does he even fit a hole? Brown looked pretty good when he finally got a real chance, and the other role belongs to Jackson when healthy (which looks to be the case for week 12). He'd just be in another crowded backfield which he obviously doesn't take too well.

I understand the frustration though. He could've stayed in Houston... would've been starting last week instead of Blue. I'm sure he took the CLE gig thinking he'd be getting 20+ touches a week. No sympathy for him and I think he should shut up but I understand.

Blount was released too today. Buffalo could put in a claim for either and it wouldn't surprise me

Re: NFL Off Topic

I think a lot of teams in contention will take a shot at them, for this reason:

@RapSheet 2m2 minutes ago
Claiming & playing Ben Tate costs $634K this year, $2.95M not gteed in ’15. For LeGarrette Blount it’s $318K this year, $2M not gteed in ‘15

Blount through a baby fit last night and stormed off the field before the game was over.

Are you saying buffalo won't try to get him? I know he did that but I still think they might try

Why?

As I mentioned (post right above yours), they don't need an RB in the role that Tate or Blount would fill. And like Tate, Blount is available bc of his actions based on being on the wrong side of a time share... which would be the case in Buffalo.
