Sean Payton is always great at keeping the players amused/content.MechDX said:
From reading his book about the super bowl year he had a lot of awesome ideas and morale boosters, like bringing out the wooden bats in the divisional game where they beat the ever living fuck out of the Cardinals. That was also the only time Reggie truly did anything of note.

The Giants made an offer to Plax before he signed with the Jets according to the NY Post:
The Jets offering 3 million guaranteed likely pushed him to sign. The offer above is just what the Giants should have offered for a 33 year old. Performance bonuses, being active every game, etc. I would have been fine with them signing him with that kind of contract. Not terribly sad to see him go somewhere else with that level of guaranteed money.

ATTENTION PLEASE!! ATTENTION!!
Niners sign Antwan Applewhite, formerly of the chargers! see what you get chargers! you sign 2 of ours, we sign 1 of yours!
p.s. lofa tapupu released by the seachickens. in my mind there is a 99.9% chance he signs with the eagles

I still think the Jets got a good deal at 3Mil even guaranteed. Low Risk/High Reward. If the kid can still play then he will be playing for a bigger contract next off season.
Plus if Plax can get back to his vertical game he is great for any developing QB.
In reality though this was a move the Jets needed to make in order to secure a #2 but have enough money to sign Cromartie.

I really hope that you are right.
I definitely think the Saints offense is going to be back where it was in 08-09. The runningback position is deep and variable, and definitely better without Bush in there. Being able to run means Brees won't have to force so much passing. The receiver corps looks fucking great as usual. Sorry Reggie, we liked you, but Darren SProles is exactly what we needed to replace you. He can also return punts without crumbling or stutter stepping.
Looking great so far. Defense is already getting that ballhawking swagger back in practice. This will be a great year. Lots of competition out there, but I think the Saints will be up to the task.

From Rotoworld:
Calvin Johnson - WR - Lions
According to NFL Network's Lindsay Soto, Calvin Johnson has added five pounds of muscle to his shoulder and legs "in order to generate more power and explosion."
I have seen him person. I dont think there is an ounce of fat on his body. Such a beast.

It's a pretty big if imo. Hopefully playing for Rex and having something to prove lights a fire in him but on a purely physical level, it will be tough for him to regain what he's lost. For the money and one year though I guess it's okay to take that chance. Maybe come playoff time he'll be back to what he was or closer to it. And am I reading right that we might sign Heap? That will be interesting. Hope it gets done.

cromartie is making his decision tonight according to john clayton. niners and jets in the running, plus other teams i assume
p.s. gee i wonder who he is going to choose!
I think the Texans made a bit of a mistake not signing him back. Can't remember the stat, but Lance Z noted they ran a lot more 2 back than most people think. That said, Leach was an awful receiver, so Kubiak probably wants another option when inexplicably going away from a productive ground gameTheFatOne said:

sigh I hear that. Story of their record last year:
*Foster rushes for 2TDs and 10 yards/carry
Kubiak: We can't run anymore. They've caught on!!
* Schaub INT
Kubiak: They'll never see the pass coming now!!
* Foster catches the ball and runs for 50 yds
Kubiak: See! The passing game works!
* FG

Another one? But they've already got Gronkowski and Hernandez. Plus Heap is guaranteed to miss what, 4 games due to his styrofoam frame?

Keller is all we need, there are good TE's that can be had for much less than Heap would have cost. Plus the Jets need to address the CB position first.Soroc said:Noooo!!! I rly wanted the jets to grab him and run some 2 TE Passing sets this yr

This whole Brandon Marshall press conference has been odd.
I feel sorry for him, I guess.

Yeah its really no big deal but it would have been nice to have another 6'5 target for Sanchez in the red zone.
Plus the Jets never run 2 TE passing sets. Its always keller and (was) hartsock. always 1 passing TE and one blocking.
Theres always Jeff Cumberland, hopefully he'll get to prove what he can offer.

Fuck You!!! LOL Really though I don't know what the Jets will do if we don't get Cromartie. Most likely
horrible

I'm hoping for this just for the lulz.TheFatOne said:
If he can hold up for a game or two during the season that is good enough.GQman2121 said:
He will have some pretty good help in the secondary this year if necessary.
I remember we had osme ancient Ravens CB that helped us beat the Patirots in 09. I think it was Chris Mcallister.
Soroc said:Fuck You!!! LOL Really though I don't know what the Jets will do if we don't get Cromartie. Most likelyscenario is getting Lito Sheppard backhorrible
No screw you!Pats would have been in the super bowl if it wasn't for Rex Ryan. They have to sign Cromartie. It's basically a necessity to play against the Pats. Wilson looked terrible last season. Asante could be an option if they don't sign Cromartie, but he isn't the kind of corner Rex Ryan likes.

I have wanted this ever since free agency started. The meltdowns would be great

Interesting.
Its not listed anywhere on his history.Striker said:

No possible way Sheppard will start for the Jets. Pretty sure Rex Ryan would put a gun to his own head before he starts that guy.
