LOL.....I have been around alot of NFL fans in my life, but the Titans fans are the quickest to hit the panic button every year! I swear it seems like if they cut the water boy, the fans go into fits wanting to know what Fisher was thinking? Look like I consider the Titans my 2nd favorite team and really pull for them, but Fisher has been doing this for over 12 years years and has been pretty dog gone successful at it! I think the fans need to be patient with the team because I really believe that if Fisher didnt think they were trying to win now, he wouldnt have signed an extension!

Gets rattled? When?
Didn't get rattled much in the biggest game of his career.Stayed in the pocket & made enough throws to go 13-1 in his senior season & get a National Championship!!! /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

Gets Rattled:
2003
Miami
Tennessee
Ole Miss
Vandy
2004
Kentucky
Florida St
Miami
2005
Bama
LSU
2006
Auburn is the only game he fell completely on his face, but TimTebow pulled his butt out of the fire about 3 or 4 other times! Had Tebow not been there, his record as a senoir would have been more like 9-4 with no SEC championship or National Title!
As far as the Title game goes, Leak had a good game, but the defense won that game!
So as a NFL prospect, well lets just see if he ever earns one of those shiny things on Peytons finger! /wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />

Leak will be a second day pick and a glorified backup and with a little luck, he make get to start a few games in the NFL when the starter goes down! Leak has proved throughout his career that he gets rattled when the rush is on and he cannot stay in the pocket and make the throw!

QUOTE(rapbwood @ Mar 11 2007 - 05:26 PM) 826408241[/snapback]Did you hear during the Superbowl press day, one of the reporters had to the nerve to ask Peyton if Eli was adopted? His best comment was no comment at all with a look like "Are you stupid or something". I laugh when this happen live on the NFL channel. I don't know if they showed this on ESPN but this was funny as well as some of the other questions coming his way. I hope Eli starts to come around next year and play better. It is tough to be under his older brother shadow.
Sound like a reporter trying to get under Peyton's skin and get him to do something that the media can talk about, but Peyton wont break! but that had to be tough to refrain himself with someone talking about his family! Not only did that reporter not get to Peyton, now that reporter will never get a one on one with him!

Looks like Lendale will be the feature back and they will sign a veteran backup or draft a RB!
For those of you who are worrying, read this maybe it will make you feel better!

Not sure what kind of chances are behind this, but it wouldnt surprise me to see them move a draft pick to another team for a solid player!
-
Thabnks for the info, thats what I was asking for, but really neither of the 3 are huge names, Morgan and Rucker would have been cut had they not agreed to a restructer and Delhomme would ahve been put under alot of pressure to restructer! Where as everyone knows that Peyton is not going to get cut and really he held the ball, not the organization! He could have collected his $10 mil this year and never looked back! Rucker nor Morgan was going to collect a roster bonus and Delhomme may not have!

QUOTE(Gerry Bertier @ Mar 1 2007 - 01:03 AM) 826394472[/snapback]I promise you their have been players do the same thing. Jamal Lewis decided to let the Ravens cut him so they could create 8.3 million dollars of cap space. Jamal will resign back with the Ravens and understands why the Ravens released him and said it was for the best of the team. Once again you are putting Manning on this throne he does not belong too. Manning still gets his money, so did he really do anything special? No, he didn't. This is a common practice in the NFL as in contracts these large roster bonuses are put in the contract and rarely does the player receive that large bonus. So you guys just need to get off Peyton's footballs and realize this is a common practice in the NFL. Teams will restructure contracts of players like Manning to help fit their cap for that year. You know what was Manning's base salary in the 2nd year of his current contract? $ 668,520 . This happens on every team, every year.
/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Boy you really had the Jamal situation pegged! /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />
I was talking to a guy the other day about this and he said the only big name players he can remember doing this in recent years was Troy Aikman and Peyton Manning, maybe there have been some more, but you have yet to provide some names and some proof with it!

Dominic Rhodes is suppose to be meeting with the Titans this week!
Some of the Titans fans just get too excited, calm down and let this thing play out! No big loses except for Henry and no way the Titans should or would give him the money the Broncs gave him!
-
Now you may be a little upset, they dont have Brown right now either! they havent resigned him!
Only 2 RB listed on depth chart
45 Ahmard Hall RB 27 5-11 235 R Texas
25 LenDale White RB 22 6-1 235 R USC
As far as WR goes, I dont see them going with a WR in the first RD, I think they will give Jones, Roby , and Williams a chance to step up and perform like th 3rd and 4th round picks they were!
-
Does this mean the Titans are going to draft a Top RB(Marshawn Lynch 1st RD, or Lorenzo Booker, Michael Bush, Kenny Irons, darius Walker 2nd-3rd RD)? Does this mean they think LenDale can be an every down back now? Does this mean they will try to spend some of that jack on a big FA (Jamal Lewis)?
-
I dont think this is a huge lose at all for the Titans, he is on the back end of his career and he was going to be a 3rd WR anyway and if someone wanted to give him $30 Mil over 6 years, great for him! I expected him to get tops round $18 Mil over 6 years with some incentives!

I think the NFL markets Vick as their best athlete, and he is that. He just happens to be a a QB also, and not a very good one. But, when we start throwing around overrated QBs the list gets a lot longer than just Mike Vick. Theres David Carr, Eli Manning, and Jake Plummer for example.
I think Vick would be more successful if he dropped that "I'm a QB and thats the only position I'll play" attitude and was more open to change. Marcus Allen probably could have played any skill position on the offensive side of the ball, but he made his living at RB, maybe Vick needs to switch. The Falcons could have Matt Schaub and Vick in the backfield at the same time, that could could cause a lot of headaches for defensive coordinators.
Good Post! I totally agree

Like you say, if he was WILLING, key word willing, to restructure and take a cut, his contract would have been done ASAP to keep him from leaving the team or having bad pub. The Mighty Peyton Manning was ready for his negotiations and got it done with time to spare so they could get their act together on who to prepare to trade for or pick. The sooner you know where you stand with your money, the better planning you can make for NFL Draft Day. /cool.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="B)" border="0" alt="cool.gif" />

the thing is that if vick is passing (comp % wise) bad in a game they can still win because he might have 120 yds rushing and 2 tds.......if shaubs passing bad then thats all you got............a qb with a bad day thats stuck with that bad day
I will take it easy on you since you are a JR poster with just a little over 550 post!
Interest fact, Vick has only had one game in his career where he has rushed for 120+ yards and 2 TD and it took OT to win that game! And only 4 career game where he has rushed for 120+ yards!
But he does have 31 career game where his QB rating is under 70 and the Falcons are 11-20 in those games!
Something else interesting, Vick had his best year in 2004 when he did not rush for 2 TD in any game and his team went 11-5! Falcons were 1-3 when Vick QB rating was under 70
Vick is a great athlete, he just isnt a QB! The numbers show that you have to be able to throw and run the ball to win!

QUOTE(Gerry Bertier @ Mar 1 2007 - 12:46 PM) 826395053[/snapback]No the Ravens ran out of time restructuring his contract, get the story straight so instead of hurting the team they cut him. He understood why. Its ok that Peyton isn't the only player doing this practice, I applaud him for helping out the team, but he is doing what many players do each year to help the their team. Nothing special just life in a salary cap society.
How do you run out of time to restructer? They have had almost 2 month! This tells me one thing, both sides couldnt agree on a restructered contract so they had to cut him to save money under the cap! So fine he understands that they had to cut him to save money, yet it wasnt like he said "hey cut me"! Or maybe I am wrong so straighten the story for me
Questions?
Why did they run out of time? If Jamal was so willing to take a pay cut for the better of the team then why wasnt it restructered, instead of being cut? And one more thing, Who else has done this, this year besides Peyton? You say many players do it each year, give the names of a few?
I am not saying your wrong by any means, but anyone that knows me, knows I like to see the facts!

Like he had a choice? The Ravens were cutting him regardless, and you are more than likely right about him resigning with them, but who knows? Either way, he didnt volunteer to lose that money, he was told he was going to!

u cant take that one bad game away.
Thats right and you cant take Vick's 50 bad games away!

no team drops as many passes as the falcons they have 3 first rounders inthe recieving core and none of them are any good..........that means bad scouting..............everyone looks at the QB rating instead of the wins......someone please tell me matt shaubs rating and W-L ratio is......now he does need to be a better passer but he has to do more than most Qbs in the league as far as keeping his team in the game.....and what were peerless prices stats this season and ashlie lelie's stats from the previous years...............i think he will be better with petrino as his coach even though i liked Mora......the last 2 Qbs petrino had passed for at least 65% in college maybe that means something
You need to understand, the NFL is a whole new ball game, its not college anymore! You look what
Spurrier QBs did in college compared to the NFL, big difference!
Matt Schaub as a starting QB:
64/118 794 yds 57% comp 5 TD 4 int 79.1 QB rating
Take away one bad game as a rookie and his rating as a starting QB is a blistering 93.7
I am not saying Schaub is a definate answer but he gives them a better shot that Vick does! Vick is not the answer!

Great 3-0 start for the Braves and no one and I mean no one give the Braves a shot at going into Philly and sweeping them to open the season! They bullpen has been great with the exception of McBride and Paranto walking 5 batters in the 9th yesterday, but Soriano came in and got a one pitch save! A guy that doesnt get enough credit for his play is Brian McCann, he goes out everyday and puts up numbers and really doesnt get much attention for it and thats not to mention the way he has grown up far past his years to handle the pitching staff! McCann without injury will be the starting catcher in the 2007 All-Star game!Keep up the good work Braves and remember this is a marathon not a sprint!
