Your constant sinning. Don't you want to try something different than butt fumbles?
I quite like Garrard after watching the Dolphins on Hard Knocks. He seemed like a nice chap to have a cider with. All the best to him.

Alright kids, trip on this.
Blaming the Flacco contract for the Boldin move is ridiculous. Joe's hit on the cap is only 7 mil. Boldin is gone because management did not want him at 6 mil. He's a great reciever but he's getting older. You're really going to see older reciecers become as disposable as running backs. They'll love you until they feel you're getting used up.
Second, people thinking the playoffs were a fluke and the offense is going to regress are failing to understand that we got rid of the biggest hinderance, Cam Cameron. Once Jim Caldwell really started putting his stamp on it the whole system really started to gel. Joe is going to have a career year in 2013 with a Caldwell system, two beast RBs, and a great receiving corp. I'm talking Rice, Pierce, Smith, Jones, Pitta, and more.
And let's not forget this was only Joe's fifth year in the leauge. His worst plays came in his rookie and sophmore seasons. He has done nothing but grow in ability and confidence. In all honesty this Super Bowl should of been his repeat trip, not his first. I can think of about 27 teams that would be better with Flacco at QB.
Nobody wins a Super Bowl by themselves but Flacco was a big reason that they did. Just think of how many teams have won it all compared to how many there are and you'll understand that every SB win is special and I'll let nothing spoil that.

Should be the Jets every year.
It still wouldn't be enough to heal those wounds you carry, Dutch.
By the way, here's that full report from CBS:
You guys apparently don't like Condon all that much.
I forget why, but Belichick hates him for some reason. I would love to have Cruz. If the Pats are planning to take a WR with their 1st they would be better off getting Cruz.
Edite: I don't really watch the Giants
fuck the Giants

I believe
You must work for the Jets. I just read that Sanchez is the favorite going into a "QB competition".
New York Buttfumbles.

IT'S TIME TO BUTTER UP REVIS!
Somebody get this man all the fine women available in Denver.
Get the dude a Line and a RB who can cut and catch and we are set.

The main problem was the Ben Watson signing. He was told by his agent ,Condon, to hold out after the draft and Bill was not amused. Pretty much avoided the guy untill they signed Lloyd last year (Lloyd is also represented by Condon).
They were pretty good on offense his first couple of years. Problem for him is that when talent reached Dolphins levels, he became a turnover machine. Book is written

Definitely a solution to the secondary problems. Champ and Revis...
I hate you and everything to do with the Jets. I now hope you go 2-14 every year.
So is that how the 49ers are going to keep working? Picking up key members of the previous year's championship team?
I'm actually pretty happy with what we got for Harvin. Is he worth more than an almost-2nd-rounder? Talent wise, yes he is. But the bottom line is that he didn't want to play here, and he thinks he's going to get Megatron money. He's a unique talent but it was either take nothing for him or get a first rounder and some garbage.
I'll take it.
I'll take it.
Completely forgot about that. It was probably because I tried to forget about Watson. All this Cruz talk reminded me about Ballard.Any news on how Ballard is doing?
I would rather keep Dumerville even if he does not take the pay cut. It is too high, but they will still have to pay him if he is traded. My issue is if he does not it shows he cares more for his ego than having the best possible team to win.
Damn!
Seahawks and 49ers are still going at each other even offseason.
Percy Harvin > Anquan Boldin
Best Offseason news I have heard. I just can't believe long time ago, I made a post about "Which do you think Percy Harvin would go to?" then I joked to say Seahawks since Seahawks and Viking have some couple players of ex-Seahawks/ex-Viking. I can't believe it happened. :O

I could get an honest to God hobo that can throw better than Tebow.

That's because you have an entire army of hobos in Baltimore to choose from.

I think Da will be a much better player going forward if healthy, but Boldin would have been nice since he is so physical. Both are huge upgrades over Avant though.
Ed Reed can't play qb. No amount of deer antler piss can change that.
Adrian Wilson is an undersized LB. He was so bad in coverage they had to take him off the field on obvious passing downs. He's already helped the Pats. He was part of the reason Hartline went nuts vs the Cards, which helped him get that silly new contract. Send him flowers, but no ring

no way in fuck.
GB QB that have the first name "Matt" is eligible for Seahawks to receive.

Why the Pats dont never do nothin'.
I thought the 49ers wanted to improve their safety play?
Damn thread's been dead for a month. I can't get on all day and there are 500 posts...
Anyways, my thoughts on the news:
Seattle made a great pickup but got absolutely fleeced. I bet no one else offered more than a 2nd round pick for him.
A sixth for Boldin? At least he wasn't Super Bowl mvp.
And this is beyond tampering. Hey, dumbasses, no signing contracts until tomorrow at 4!

Fine the Redskins and Cowboys again says Mara
Feces? I agree with that.
If Reed could catch, throw the ball or owned a home I might take your argument a little more seriously. There is a reason he plays in the secondary and lives under a bridge.

I would be happy with Eifert. Combined with Kendricks we would have a really nice set of receiving tight ends that could open up big plays deep to Givens. They resigned one DT today. What's the thought process behind looking at D Lineman? I think we are really solid there. I would be happy with OT, TE, WR in the first round. Possibly RB? Could be rough with SJAX gone. We need two safeties with Mikell gone and a linebacker

Very true, unless you're like me and wanted to give Flacco zero dollars for zero years.
Oh God no.....

Cullen was cut he isnt a FA whose contract expires on the 12th at the start of the league year.
bargain bins. Well I hope it's different this year but hard to have faith in them.

They chose a first round pick and some other draft picks over a guy whos never had 1000 receiving yards in a season, wanted a fairly large amount of money, is a total cunt and has had "injury" problems in the past.
