Mark Sanchez just changed his Facebook status back to "In a Relationship."

Jets finally gave in and re-signed Scotty McKnight to their practice squad.

The question with Dirty Sanchez is whether the woman he's in a relationship with is of legal age.

Super Mario out for the season, sucks for the Texans

TonyR · 10-11-2011, 06:23 AM

They hate Asomugha in Philly right now. They're making him one of the fall guys for the overall bad performance of their defense. He's been very mediocre in their scheme, has been beat a few times, and isn't tackling well. Eagles fans are wishing they'd have spent the $60 million on the LB position instead.

SouthStndJunkie · 10-11-2011, 09:03 PM

Only days after he reportedly was benched for running his mouth, receiver Derrick Mason has been shipped to the Texans, according to John McClain of the Houston Chronicle.

Per McClain, the Jets traded Mason to the Texans for a conditional draft choice.

Wow if they went by that model they would have to trade everyone on their team

SouthStndJunkie · 10-18-2011, 02:31 PM

The Eagles traded running back Ronnie Brown to the Detroit Lions for running back Jerome Harrison and a seventh-round 2013 draft pick.

bendog · 10-18-2011, 02:53 PM

hmmm. Wonder what Knowshow might have gotten.

PHI has totally F'd with there Defensive scheme since Jimmy Johnson passed. Losing Stewart Bradley has really hurt their MIKE position too. PHI is a lot better talent wise than their record indicates, and defensive coaching is the primary reason IMHO.

The new DC, Juan Castillo, is playing way too much zone BS with Asomugha right now. Really not optimizing a player like him is KILLING their defense IMHO, not Asomugha getting beat playing deep zone crossing routes. Andy Reid letting Castillo be the new DC might be his downfall there in PHI.

10-19-2011, 03:49 PM

Med I think Bradley was s one hit wonder. He has been bad in az this year. May be their scheme.

I agree...Juan Castillo coached their offensive line for the last 13 years and then they moved him over to be the DC....made no sense to me at the time.

I think Castillo wanted to move to the defensive side of the ball, but why not let him cut his teeth as a position coach on defense for a few years?

Looks like this has been reduced to a one game suspension.

Not sure if this has been posted somewhere.. apparently the trade didn't go through because Harrison failed his physical.. apparently during the physical it was discovered that Harrison had a brain tumor.. this trade possibly saved his life.. crazy stuff

bendog · 10-21-2011, 07:27 AM

James Harrison + brain tumor > knowshow?

They played a lot better in D.C. last week beating the Skins. Will be interesting to see if they keep it up against Dallas next week and turn things around. I still think this team can possibly win 9-10 games.

Kaylore · 10-21-2011, 07:40 AM

Spending a bunch on free agents never works. You can sign a few, but every year one team (usually the Redskins) goes and blows their load on all the "best" free agents and every year that team ends up sucking.

Same thing happened with Kevin Curtis a couple years ago. Eagles were trading him to Vikings and the Viking medical staff found cancer tumor that saved his life.

BroncoBuff · 10-23-2011, 04:07 PM

Six sacks in six games for Von Miller is damned impressive.

Stupid Jared Allen racked up two more today, now 11.5 on the season ... all-time record pace.

BroncoBuff · 10-23-2011, 04:14 PM

Vikings turned the offense over to Ponder today.

If he starts eight games, and Gabbert also manages eightvor more, here's a funny fact: Of the 15 QBs drafted in the first round the past 6 years, only 3 failed to start the majority of their team's games their rookie year: Tim Tebow, Jay cutler and Brady Quinn.

TonyR · 10-26-2011, 06:32 AM

His record on acquiring players was always suspect, even before Snyder gave him control of the roster. One of the biggest criticisms of Shanahan from football people is that he didn’t listen enough to his scouts, that he relied too much on highlight tapes, picking a player’s 10 best plays and saying he would coach him to that level. This has served him well at times. His worst critics say he has often overcome bad personnel decisions with good coaching. He has made players better. And once his run-blocking schemes took hold in Denver the Broncos trampled over AFC West defenses.

But the same hubris led him to believe he could do better than what Andy Reid accomplished for a decade in Philadelphia in disguising McNabb’s stubbornness and passive-aggressive leadership. He figured with a few adjustments McNabb could be a three- or four-year bridge to that next great quarterback. This, of course, was a disaster. McNabb did not adapt to change. He struggled to run Shanahan’s offense, bouncing passes and failing to find the best receiving targets. Before the end of the first season he was banished to the bench and ultimately traded to Minnesota where he has already blown up less than two months into the season.

Shanny should have stuck with Jason Campbell. The Skins are done. I wonder how many more years Snyder gives him?

I'm glad he left KC. He is a HOF so far in his career. What did they use their picks on for him anyways I can't remember.
