I hope things work out for Bradford, he seems like a nice enough guy that has had to deal with a lot. I worry that Fisher has never been a QB friendly coach, even when they had Mcnair the offense was slam Eddie George into the line on 1st and 2nd down and then have Steve bail them out on 3rd down. I hope he is smart enough to turn the offense over to some one else.

Him being a nice guy might be a problem. Seems all the best QBs are sort of assholes. I don't quite get all the hoopla over Fisher, and what's soon to be a massive contract, but I think he's smart enough to know he has to throw to win these days.

And McNair was good, but his accuracy was always an issue. It was tough to build an offense around him. Now his talent evaluation of QBs might be a problem. In '06, he wanted Leinart, Chow wanted Cutler, but Adams forced Vince Young on them. Then he went and signed Kerry Collins. He just never really got enough from the position through his tenure as a coach
 
hey ho
didn't see you say any smart comments today about tj or the texans
can't wait for brees to stomp dat ass

I meant to say congrats Texans GAF earlier. They played a great game today. I still cant believe how loud the stadium was, that was such an awesome scene.

18 years since last playoff appearance in the city, and of course the first in texans history.

can't remember where i read it earlier but the decibel level in the stadium was equivalent to that of you holding a buzz saw 3 feet away from your ear. pretty fucking loud

It was pretty great to see them get over the hump and overcome their issues. Team stands to be decent for a while now if they've finally shook that "want to win" attitude rather than expecting to win like they should.

Obviously I'm a Texans fan and live in Houston, but I believe this team is set for awhile especially on defense. Our defense is very young. Our main stars on that side of the ball are locked up for a while (except Mario Williams) and are only going to get better. All of those drafts that the Texans spent the majority of their picks on defense is paying off.

Offensively they need to draft a nice WR in the 1st or 2nd round to complement AJ. When AJ went down the Texans WR was absolutely trash. Texans are set at TE and QB. Foster contract issue will be coming up soon but I gotta believe they're gonna keep him.

They are in very good shape.

I wonder what they're gonna do about Mario though. Defense has not missed a beat since he went out and this is the 2nd consecutive season he's had big injury problems.
 
I wonder if TJ wins another playoff game, and plays well, if there is any chance of a competition next year?

No. Yates will probably slip into the 2nd string position, but Schaub is the QB. As much as I dislike him and his shortcomings he is an above average QB. When Schaub went out Texans failed to score 20 points in each of the remaining games until week 16 and today.

I would think no given that his statline was pretty mediocre (horrible really if you subtract out AJ's TD). Plus Arian Foster was such a huge part of their offense today.

They ought to get some decent value for him and trade him for a...wait. WTF do the Texans need beside a better than average QB? They got a top 3 receiver, RB, LB, DB, DL...

Damn, in paper they look dangerous as fuck

His stat line wasn't that hot, but he converted on some pretty big 3rd and longs.

Need another WR to go with AJ. Every where else is pretty solid.

I was saying if he had a good game next round and they advanced, I know he didnt play great today, even though the team as a whole looked really good.


Bowser, I had no interest in how Cam would do before the season, but after hearing Bradshaws insane rant I was really pulling for him. It was great seeing him shut up all the doubters this year.
 
hey ho
didn't see you say any smart ass comments today about tj or the texans

where you at son

i already congratulated the two biggest texans fans: mrbob and squicken. congrats to you too!

He basically did exactly what you expect a backup QB to do: Protect the football and manage the game. Schaub is a Top 10 QB though. TJ Yates right now would be lucky to be Chad Pennington.
 
Mario Williams for Matt Flynn.

LOL the Packers are getting 3 firsts. I was listening to Ray Didinger today and he was saying that teams are really high on Flynn and he could see a bidding war for him. I was kidding about the 3 1st round picks but I do think they will franchise him now.

Buffalo will give up all their picks.

Hell, Fitz is so bad the QB coach up and left for the CFL in the middle of the night.
 
pwill + aldon + 1st rounder + ghost of bill walsh + 4 of our superbowl trophies to count towards gb total for the right to talk to matt flynn

I'll counter that by offering to ban Irsay from twitter for the good of the league in exchange for the off chance we can get BJ Raji to pass a note to Matt Flynn that reads:

Code:
I heard you like Indy.

Confirm   Deny

Damn I just checked google and that really did happen. I cant wait to hear what LJ thinks of that. I am shocked that anyone would go to the CFL over the NFL. Maybe he just wants to get familiar with the country before the Bills move there.






















Just kidding

I don't think they will. Teams will give him 60 mil though.

Has anyone made more off a single game then Flynn will have off that Detroit game? I mean, I though the could be a starter prior to that game, but now he really got his name out there.

He had that great game against the Pats last year where the coaches failed him. Otherwise he'd have won then too.
 
Shame that I thought pretenders like the Lions could hang with the Aints. A real team like the 9ers will have to show them theyre frauds! lololol.

Packers Saints NFC Championship game.
 
Yeah it will be one of the most interesting things about the offseason, that and where does Spags go.
Not the Eagles. :(

His first post-firing interview. I knew he was religious but damn, he is VERY religious. Thinking about taking a year off, but probably won't. Offers to be a DC and a position coach, but no decision yet. Still wants to be a HC (lol)

Texans need another CB. BAL and CIN can't exploit it, but Kareem Jackson is terrible. Also need a stouter DT, and obviously someone to compliment Dre at WR. Schaub is a liability but he's hard to upgrade. Mario pretty much has to be gone, but it's hard to trade him considering his salary demands.

Thanks for the link. I think he would like to come back but I dont think he will be okay with having the wide 9 forced on him and Eagles cant fire Washburn after how good the DL was this year. Hopefully Juan can be better next year.

the problem is you have no LB's. the eagles LB's are maybe the worst in the league and then you're running the wide 9. it's fucking stupid.

not sure if there is anyone out there that's really going to help immediately

Matthews and Cheney played much better towards the end of the year. Foku is the worst LB in the nfl by a huge amount though. The Eagles have to find a replacement for him next year. Rolle is a decent backup as well. Their D really got it together the last 4 weeks, hopefully they add a few pieces next year and they should have a really good D.

wtf they got it together against who? the dolphins, jets, redskins and cowboys? let me know how mattews and cheney starting in the long run works out for you guys

Rolle looked nice but every one of those guys are undersized to be playing in a wide 9 scheme. i dont mind them on the outside as much but we NEED a big monster at LB in the middle with our first rounder. then some combination of O-Line, LB again, and DB with our two second rounders and third
 
I would love to see them get a LB in FA this offseason. I am not sure about any of the LBs in this years draft. I guess I would be happy with Vontaze Burfict if that is who they get.
 
Cool read on Rodgers.

With regards to George Cortez leaving the Bills for the CFL, he was getting shitcanned anyway from what I heard, they weren't going to do it because he was offered the job. Cortez came from the CFL, was A-Rods coach at UC, think he was OC at one point as well.

No young QB to groom, don't really care who the QB coach is. Something was amiss though, not sure what happened but he was on the outs.
