now he and two high picks are gone and all thats left in the rubble is a broken down ginger qb who just lost his best and only friend in the organization

Coach shake-ups;

Bill Callahan out as OL Coach in NY...goes to Dallas to replace Hudson Houck.

Brian "having Sanchez throw 59 times is awesome" Schottenheimer tells Jets he won't be back.

Tony Sparano likely to be hired to replace him

Marty Schottenheimer is interviewing in Tampa...so Josh Freeman better loosen his shoulder up since Brian will likely follow pops to TB.

rutgers needs someone who can recruit better than schiano did - he was great at what he did; establishing and building the brand, getting a local tv deal done w sny to air programming, naming rights to the stadium, etc...

but his recruiting has lacked heavily. aside from the obvious guys - rice and britt - and some lower level guys - leonard and mccourty - there has been a lack of talent. the best qb he ever recruited left after his freshman year to go play for arizona.

granted, college football is dead in this area of the country, but there is no reason why rutgers should not have at least been in a bcs bowl once in the past 11 years.

That's my point...I think we're talking different languages a little. They need to make a great hire, but that's all within perspective for the school. A great hire for them would be different than a great hire for, say, USC. They need to make a great choice, at least for recruiting purposes.

Former Indianapolis Colts head coach Jim Caldwell plans to join the offensive coaching staff of the Baltimore Ravens, a league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

The Ravens announced last week that Cam Cameron would return as offensive coordinator, but they still need a quarterbacks coach for Joe Flacco. Caldwell now appears to be the choice.

The correct thread.  You're right igy, senior moment (more like iPad challenged)

At the Turtle Bay Resort for an industry function and I just saw Rob Ryan in the lobby.  Didn't know wether to flip him off for being a Cowboy or fall at his feet and start crying "Why, why you SOB?.  You could have made papa so proud.  Birds man, birds"

Side note, he's as sloppy and messy in person as he looks on tv.  Big, ugly, tacky aloha shirt and khaki shorts.  Frightening.

how accurate would you say the following statement is....


andrew luck has a higher chance of being a hall of famer than not being a probowler

At first glance that statement seems ludacris.  But to be a pro-bowler in the NFL, you basically just need to be one of the top 5 QB's in your conference to get strong consideration.  So top 5 out of 16 isn't really that impressive.  It's basically a 1 in 3 chance for him to make the pro bowl at some point in his career.  So the odds if him not making a pro bowl roster at least once are rediculously high, especially when you look at how the league is catered to the pass.  How many rookie QB's and WR's have made immediate contributions over the last 4 or 5 years?  It doesn't take 3 or 4 years to "develop" a QB like it used to.  So Luck will start right away and if he's got half decent talent around him, he'll put up big numbers from the get go.

So yeah, as crazy as it seems, I'd say it's going to be harder for Luck to not make the pro-bowl at any point in his career than it would be for him to make the HOF.

QuoteTerrell Owens Could Face Jail Time For Atlanta Child Support Case

For a moment, Last weekend, Terrell Owens was in the "spotlight" as he started his new job with the Allen (Tex.) Wranglers Indoor Football League team, but now it's being said that Owens might be heading to jail over an Atlanta child support case.On Friday, the Fulton County contempt of court petition, which was filed by Melanie Paige Smith, says that Owens owes $5,000 for each of the months, December, January, February, and March.A Fulton County judge ordered the payments for support of the couple's daughter back in 2007.In a letter to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Smith's attorney, Randall Kessler said, "he has not indicated if he ever plans to send another penny for their daughter". The attorney added, "We plan to ask the court to send a strong message, given that he has only paid support in the last 10 months after a contempt action has been filed against him".Smith is one of several women seeking child support from the former NFL wide receiver.

His numbers over the last 2 years are better than DeSean's too, so maybe this will help with a long term contract getting done. I have to believe Johnson's contract is closer to what the Eagles are thinking for Jackson than what Rosenhaus is.

Title: Re: Around the NFL - 2012
Post by: Eagaholic on March 06, 2012, 02:34:02 AM
If it were me, I'd just let DeSean play under the tag this year anyway. It's a lousy market to try and trade him and a couple of WRs may well go in the top half of the 1st round. And not to mention who will replace him.

See where his heart and his head are really at. If he stays healthy and plays well then give him the good contract he deserves, maybe before the end of the season. I understand them not wanting to commit big money to him now. I don't know what their cap will look like next year though if they want to re-sign him and Shady.

yeah making someone play out a franchise tag is a brilliant way to see where their head and heart is at...that could be about the dumbest thing they could do

either you want him long term or you dont...andy does howie doesnt...well see who wins this power struggle...but whichever way it goes either lock him up or get rid of him
Title: Re: Around the NFL - 2012
Post by: reese125 on March 06, 2012, 07:44:07 AM
It's definitely Roseman holding this up. Rosenhaus can try and sell him till he's blue in the face that Desean is one of the top wideouts in the league, but all you have to do is watch the tape and look at the injury report. Defenses already have a beat on Jackson.

I actually think giving him the 1 year deal is the way to go because if Jackson wants any kind of security, big time money deal he better play his ass off this year. See if he really wants to be in Philly. If he doesnt play his ass off, hes right back in the same boat trying to score a middle of the road deal with another team. If that's the case (which I think will happen)-peace--have fun in Frisco.
Title: Re: Around the NFL - 2012
Post by: ice grillin you on March 06, 2012, 08:49:23 AM
very few players play their ass off on the franchise tag...many hold out which throws their season off from the jump and the ones who do play thru it def dont give their all as one injury could ruin their career and future earning potential...especially a player like pimp who has had the concussion and is tiny...you damn well be sure he isnt putting himself out there at all costs

the eagles fortunately have been very good about not having players play on the tag

which is why in the end everyone would be surprised if he actually plays out the tag as thay is not something either the team or pimp wants and is in the best interest of no one
Title: Re: Around the NFL - 2012
Post by: reese125 on March 06, 2012, 09:53:04 AM
You really think he's going to go 2 seasons in a row of the hold out bullshtein? I don't. He doesn't have a leg to stand on this time so he better play his ass off.

He was already quoted before the tag as saying he's perfectly fine with the tag. He was more pissed last season because he was playing for chump change. Now he's at 9+ million, he can invest in a car wash and play some ball with a diff mind set. Like I said, if he goes out there and half asses it, he kills his value even more.
Title: Re: Around the NFL - 2012
Post by: ice grillin you on March 06, 2012, 09:58:12 AM
of course hes gonna say hes fine with the tag in january...its all PR

lol at thinking if he doesnt give his all THIS year then hes really in trouble...he already took a season off and got rewarded with a franchise tag...but dont do it again or you are really in trouble!

the eagles dont wanna pay almost 10 mil to someone they may not get a full year of effort out of and pimp doesnt wanna play on another one year deal...however the franchise tag allows the eagles to not lose him for nothing....im not saying its impossible that it would happen but i would be very surprised if he either doesnt get a long term deal from the eagles or hes moved

again its something that neither sides wants and it will be avoided at all costs

The deal guarantees Patterson $6 million.

Patterson, 29 in June, operated as the Browns' nickel corner last season, covering the slot on passing downs. Joe Haden and Sheldon Brown were the outside cornerbacks, though Brown may move to safety this year depending on the team's acquisitions in the draft and rest of free agency.

Patterson finished last season with 28 tackles and 12 pass breakups. He had four interceptions as a nine-game starter in Philadelphia the year before.

Another LB on the market...

QuoteFrom AP

      ALAMEDA, Calif. (AP) - The Oakland Raiders have told linebacker Kamerion Wimbley they will release him one year into a $48 million, five-year deal. Agent Joe Linta said in an email Friday that he was unable to work out a new contract with general manager Reggie McKenzie so the Raiders decided to cut Wimbley instead. Oakland gave Wimbley the big contract last summer. He got paid $5 million in 2011 and is still guaranteed an additional $6.5 million from the Raiders. The team would have been on the hook for $4.5 million more in 2012 if Wimbley was on the roster Saturday, as well as an additional $13 million in guaranteed money for the rest
of the deal. Wimbley had seven sacks, 21.5 quarterback knockdowns and 9.5 hurries last season, according to STATS LLC.

QuoteFrom AP

      ALAMEDA, Calif. (AP) - The Oakland Raiders have told linebacker Kamerion Wimbley they will release him one year into a $48 million, five-year deal. Agent Joe Linta said in an email Friday that he was unable to work out a new contract with general manager Reggie McKenzie so the Raiders decided to cut Wimbley instead. Oakland gave Wimbley the big contract last summer. He got paid $5 million in 2011 and is still guaranteed an additional $6.5 million from the Raiders.

Based on their track record...they couldn't have drafted a better linebacker...even with these injuries.

Off the subject, in a case where someone gets suspended a year without pay...let's say it was the 2nd year of a 3 year contract and the person was said to make X-millions....is that year completely lost or does it get pushed forward to the following season? I'm pretty sure they lose it...but not 100% sure.

Gary Myers says Tebow's coming for dat ass (http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/football/jets/tim-tebow-ny-jets-a-backup-thinks-beat-mark-sanchez-starting-quarterback-job-sources-article-1.1049461)

QuoteTim Tebow's love of New York has nothing to do with pastrami and rye, or Times Square, or even Madison Ave.: The real reason Tebow loves New York is because he feels he can beat out Mark Sanchez and become the Jets' starting quarterback.

Timsanity — and an explosive quarterback controversy — starts now.

Ed Werder:
QuoteBecause of a procedural issue with his contract, Tim Tebow will be required to sign a rewritten contract with the Denver Broncos on Friday and remain on Denver's salary cap for 24 hours thereafter, meaning the trade making him a member of the Jets will not be official until Saturday at 4 p.m.. Tebow flew to New York Thursday afternoon but the contract issue has forced the Jets to postpone his introductory news conference until Monday.

Quote18 Nov 2001: Quarterback Ryan Leaf #16 of the Dallas Cowboys throws against the Philadelphia Eagles at Texas Stadium in Irving, TX. The Eagles defeat the Cowboys 36-3. (Ronald Martinez/ALLSPORT)

(AP) GREAT FALLS, Mont. - Authorities say former NFL quarterback Ryan Leaf has been arrested in his Montana hometown on burglary and drug possession charges.

Great Falls Police Sgt. Dean Bennett says Leaf was arrested Friday afternoon.

The circumstances surrounding Leaf's arrest are not immediately clear. Bennett says he hasn't seen a report detailing the allegations.

Cascade County Detention Center Officer Robert Rivera says Leaf was booked on charges of burglary of a residence, theft and felony criminal possession of dangerous drugs.

Leaf was freed on $76,000 bond and is scheduled to make an initial court appearance Monday.

The former San Diego Chargers first-round pick has had several past run-ins with the law. In 2010, he pleaded guilty in Amarillo, Texas, to various drug charges and was sentenced to 10 years' probation and fined $20,000.

QuoteHELENA, Mont. (AP)

Former NFL quarterback Ryan Leaf was arrested again Monday, just days after he posted bail on similar charges that he burglarized a home and stole prescription drugs, authorities said.

nfl draft busts
BUSTED
JaMarcus Russell was bad, but who tops our list of the biggest draft bust in NFL history?

Leaf was first arrested on Friday after police found oxycodone pills in his golf bag that an acquaintance later said Leaf stole from his home. Then early Monday, three days after posting a $76,000 bond, he was arrested again, Central Montana Drug Task Force Commander Chris Hickman said.

''It's based on a burglary that happened yesterday afternoon after he bailed out,'' Hickman said.

Leaf was scheduled to make an initial court appearance in Great Falls on Monday afternoon on two felony counts of burglary, two felony counts of criminal possession of a dangerous drug, two misdemeanor counts of theft and a probation violation.

Bond has been set at $101,000 for the burglary, theft and drug charges, but the probation violation charge does not carry a bond so Leaf cannot be released from jail, Hickman said.

A call to Leaf's publicist was not immediately returned Monday.

The Classic Seahawks jerseys, as bad and plain as they were, are looking more and more awesome the worse their new jersey's get.

Future NFL Hall-of-Famer Warren Sapp has filed for bankruptcy ... claiming he's racked up millions of dollars in debts ... but worst of all, dude claims he LOST his 2002 Super Bowl ring.Sapp -- who played in the NFL for 12 years -- just filed for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy in Florida ... and in the papers he gives a full rundown of his dire financial situation. According to the docs, Sapp owes more than $6.7 million to various creditors ... including hundreds of thousands of dollars in child support payments and alimony to at least 4 different baby mamas. Among the debts, Sapp says he owes $853k to the IRS for 2006 and another $89k for 2010. Sapp says he also owes $2,858 in medical bills for "Corrective Speech and Language Therapy."Sapp says he only has $6.45 million to his name ... and lists all of his assets in the documents ... which include: -- 240 pairs of Jordan sneakers and sandals-- Large Nude women painting-- Lion skin rug (female - lioness) -- Nike golf clubs-- De Grisogono watch (scratch on crystal, nicks and scratches on band)-- A boxing glove signed by Muhammad AliBut most interestingly, Sapp notes he has LOST two of his most treasured and valuable possessions -- the 2002 Super Bowl ring he won with the Tampa Bay Bucs (example below) and the 1999 National Championship ring he won with the Miami Hurricanes. In the docs, Sapp also lists his current salary as an analyst for the NFL Network as $45k per month ... $540k per year. Sapp says his deal with the NFL Network expires in August and he's not sure if the network will extend his deal. Calls to Sapp have not been returned.[\quote]

if Ryans can play at pre-injury level, then I'm actually okay with the other two assumed starters. They played okay last year, and I think they can be okay playing next to a real LB. If he's not at pre-injury level, then yeah I'd like another upgrade please.

Don't get me wrong, I'm fine with Chaney/Matthews/Rolle [in nickel] as backups and on STs, but they're not every down LBs. I was actually semi encouraged from what I saw from Matthews at the end of last season. My guess is SAM Chaney MIKE Meco WIL Matthews...Rolle in Nickel situations. Is that really a big upgrade? I'd say no, you're putting a guy you hope is healthy in the middle and still have the other scrubs out there. They need at least one more talented LB to be the every down starter

QuoteSapp says his choice was bankruptcy or jail


In his first public comments regarding a recent bankruptcy filing sparked by $6.7 million in reported debt, former NFL defensive lineman Warren Sapp says that he had two options.

"Do you think I wanted to declare bankruptcy?" Sapp tells Gary Shelton of the Tampa Bay Times.  "Do you think if there was any other way possible I would have done it?  It was either this or go to jail.  Those were my choices."

Ha.

QuoteWhether he's apologizing for lending his jersey to a porn star or dancing shirtless hours after losing the Super Bowl, Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski has a tendency to make eyebrow-raising public appearances. And now we have another.

In an appearance at the University of Rhode Island on Thursday night, Gronkowski agreed to play the oh-so-hilarious "F, marry, kill" game. His choices were Betty White, Rex Ryan and Tim Tebow.

"I would 'F' Tebow, to take his virginity," Gronkowski said.


Thus followed
QuoteAccording to Hayes Carlyon of the St. Augustine Record, a woman bid $100,000 to spend a day with Tebow.  The money will help fund his foundation's charitable works.

"It was incredible," Tebow said.  "It's humbling.  You don't feel worthy, but when people care about your cause and know that you're trying to do something for other people it's amazing to see what can happen."

Tebow also should be glad that Rob Gronkowski didn't show up with $100,001.

Seriously, somebody would spend $100k to spend a day with him? How many people even have that kind of jack to spend, other than maybe Donovan for throwing accuracy lessons?

I know at this point stuff about McNabb is beating a dead horses ass, but sometimes the fire that ensues after the train wreck is just as funny.

QuoteDonovan McNabb's career may be over, as he hasn't drawn any interest from any teams since the Vikings released him late last year. If his career is over, McNabb believes he belongs in the Pro Football Hall of Fame's class of 2017.

McNabb said on the online interview show Barfly that he thinks there's no question that he should be in the Hall of Fame.

"Absolutely," McNabb said. "See, one thing that people don't realize — I never played the game to make it to the Hall of Fame. I played the game because I love it. I played the game to win. I'm a competitor. When I step out on the field, I feel like I'm the best player on the field. Even these last two years, when people may look at it and say, 'Oh, he's done, or whatever.' I'm 34, 35 years old but still, I played at the pinnacle, I played at the highest level of my career. I played there. And I would vote for myself for the Hall of Fame."


and who said he wouldn't make a good analyst?
Quote"Peyton never won the big game until he won the Super Bowl finally. Dan Marino never won the big game. But does that mean his career is a failure? No. Not at all,"

QuoteNEW ORLEANS -- The U.S. Attorney's Office in the Eastern District of Louisiana was told Friday that New Orleans Saints general manager Mickey Loomis had an electronic device in his Superdome suite that had been secretly re-wired to enable him to eavesdrop on visiting coaching staffs for nearly three NFL seasons, "Outside the Lines" has learned.

Sources familiar with Saints game-day operations told "Outside the Lines" that Loomis, who faces an eight-game suspension from the NFL for his role in the recent bounty scandal, had the ability to secretly listen for most of the 2002 season, his first as general manager of the Saints, and all of the 2003 and 2004 seasons. The sources spoke with "Outside the Lines" under the condition of anonymity because of fear of reprisals from members of the Saints organization.



Jim Letten, the U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Louisiana, acknowledged being told of the allegations Friday. Sources said he has briefed the FBI in New Orleans about Loomis' alleged activity. If proved, the allegations could be both a violation of NFL rules and potentially a federal crime, according to legal sources. The federal Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA) of 1986 prohibits any person from intercepting communications from another person using an electronic or mechanical device.

if this has legs, it is way bigger than Patriots spygate. Apparently they had the ability to listen in on OC and DCs during games.

QuoteThe sources said when Loomis took his seat during home games, then in the front row of box No. 4 in the 300 level of the Superdome's north side, he was able to plug an earpiece into a jack that was under the desk in front of him. The earpiece was not unlike those used to listen to inexpensive transistor radios, the sources said. With the earpiece in place, Loomis could then toggle back and forth with a switch that he controlled, enabling him to listen to the game-day communications of either the opposing offensive or defensive coaches.

Also underneath the desk in front of Loomis, said the sources, was a metal box that contained two belt packs similar to those worn around the waists of NFL head coaches during games. The packs powered the listening device available to Loomis, which was, according to sources, hard-wired to the audio feed of the opposing coaches.

No wonder Benson has been standing squarely behind his guys. They could bring that organization down with them or not.

I'm listening to Cowherd on the radio this morning and he brings on Romanowski to talk about Seau.  One of the first questions asked was along the lines of "At any point in your playing days, did you ever take into consideration the possible effects that the game might have on your long term health?"  Romo comes back and says that it was one of the first things he thought about after he got drafted and that he wanted to make sure he did everything possible to protect his body and leave the league in good health. 

I assume it was shortly after this that he started doing roids because they're so good for you.

Technically, you can make that statement about any and every on air personality in radio and television, especially when it comes to sports and politics.  But when he comes out and says something that I initially might think is crazy, he supports his theory with some pretty outside the box reasoning that if I take a minute to digest, I often times and up agreeing with him. 

And I don't really think he's much like Eskin at all.....except that sometimes I've heard him call his listeners "booger eaters" if they call in and sound like morons.

If I could stomach his voice in larger doses, I'd probably listen more.  He's quirky and I kind of dig it.  But farg, sometimes he gets his voice all high pitchy and I change the channel because I don't want my windsheild to crack.

Somewhat but I think they will be limited. Reid really likes his backs to be able to pick up blitzes, catch, chip occasionally and those things take time to get down. Addai was good at that and I thought he'd be a good addition but I couldn't see him wanting to come to Philly for 4 touches a game.

QuoteAlso, NT Chris Neild of the taterskins is done for the season with a torn ACL.  In the opener last season, Neild got on the field for 8 snaps against the Giants.  He had 3 tackles and 1.5 sacks.  If he had played all 1056 snaps on defense last year and kept up that pace, he would have had 396 tackles and 198 sacks.  There was such promise with young Neild.

After one week of peace, the Jets QB controversy is back:

Quote from: ESPNFLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- Six months after the trade that brought him Tim Tebow and countless questions about the Wildcat, New York Jets coach Rex Ryan displayed his first signs of Tebow fatigue Monday when grilled about the quarterback's lack of involvement in Sunday's 27-10 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers.

"We always said from Day 1, we can do it 20 times, 40 times, 10 times, two times, whatever," Ryan said of the Wildcat, taking a bit of a defensive tone. "We determine that, OK?"

Tebow didn't take an offensive snap until the 8:39 mark of the third quarter.

He immediately broke out for a 22-yard run but was pulled after three plays as the Jets faced a second-and-16. A struggling Mark Sanchez was sent back into the game and promptly threw two straight incompletions.

He was booked into jail around 5 a.m., and posted a $2,179 bond about an hour ago, but no other details of the arrest were available.

Exactly why I liked the point line last night...they're tired, they got a big, emotional win last game, and Cleveland is an underrated defense within the division.  I figured they were solid to keep it close.  I was right.  Now, I will miss the next four picks as penance for getting one right and bragging about it.

QuoteThe Minnesota Vikings punter who penned a controversial letter to a Maryland legislator in defense of same-sex marriage has now challenged another lawmaker to a similarly-themed debate.

Chris Kluwe tells City Pages that he's been in talks with Minnesotans for Equality, a Minnesota-based LGBT rights advocacy group urging voters to beat back the state's ballot initiative that would ban marriage for gays and lesbians in the state constitution, about organizing a debate between him and Minnesota Rep. Mary Franson.

"We're thinking of actually extending her an official invitation to see if she wants to do a debate," Kluwe told the publication. Still, he remained skeptical over whether or not Franson, who has claimed to be "under attack by those who oppose traditional marriage," would accept.

"I don't think she will," he added.

Franson, a Republican, generated headlines after she reportedly declared, "My concerns are that our children in our schools could be taught some liberal agendas because of the marriage amendment. Because in the schools they may be taught...that [same-sex marriage] is normal behavior. I personally do not believe it is."

Last week, Kluwe defended his obscenity-laced letter to Maryland Delegate C. Emmett Burns in an interview with HuffPost Gay Voices Editor-at-Large Michelangelo Signorile, calling same-sex marriage "a human rights issue."

QuoteSuh is accused of sideswiping a car, leaving scene of accident
Posted by Mike Florio on October 11, 2012, 7:56 PM EDT

On the same day Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh was featured on this page in response to allegations that he's not showing enough fight on the field, he's showing too much fight off it.

Allegedly.

According to FOX 2 in Detroit, Steve Vines claims that Suh sideswiped Vines' car, left the scene of the accident, and then yelled at Vines at a stoplight.

Vines says he called Dearborn, Michigan police, who told him to go to the team's practice facility and wait for them to arrive.  So that's what Vines did.

"That's when [Suh] said, 'I advise you to leave, now,'" Vines said.  "And I said, 'I'm not going anywhere.  I talked to the police.'  [He said], 'I don't care what they said.  You need to get out of here.'  And then he said, 'I'm advising you to leave, now.'"

Police reportedly are investigating.

It's the second time in less than a year that Suh has been involved in a traffic incident.  He's currently facing a lawsuit for injuries allegedly suffered by a passenger when Suh wrecked a car in his hometown of Portland, Oregon, during a two-game suspension for stomping on Packers guard Evan Dietrich-Smith.

Glazer reported on FOX that the Chargers are being investigated for using stick 'um during the game with the Broncos. Apparently during timeouts the trainers were giving players towels with the stick 'um on them during timeouts. One official saw it and busted the trainer and now NFL is investigating and could potentially lead to loss of draft picks depending on how deep the investigation goes.

Troy Smith was the 49ers starter before the whiter Smith took over.

The Broncos actually started a black guy (http://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/200312280gnb.htm), at least for a few minutes until He Flag Me intercepted him.

This all has more to do with the organization's culture than the culture of the area the team plays in. The teams with the whiter QBs even change their uniforms less often. The Giants are old school.

The closest place culturally to GB is Minnesota and they've had probably more black QBs than any other team.

you had to challenege that because you arent challenging for a first down you are challenging the spot so even if they move the ball forward two inches but not for a first down you still dont lose your time out


bottom line tho is if dwyer runs hard stright forward instead of pulling up they get it

thats completely false....they arent challenging a first down call they are challenging the spot of the ball....for example maybe if its fourth and inches they go or it but if its fourth and a yard and a half they punt.....it had nothing to do with a first down...it was the location of the ball in general

then why did the ref wait until it was a first down to say they wouldnt be charged a TO

he started by saying they would move the ball...then they measure...they when its good enough for a first they say its no TO since they won the challenge

the challenge was for a first down, not for an extra quarter yard
Title: Re: Around the NFL - 2012
Post by: ice grillin you on November 18, 2012, 11:35:09 PM
you dont challenge for a first down...you challenge where the ball should be placed and if the refs spotted it incorrectly then you win....thats why before they went to the hood they said "pittsbugh is challenging the spot of the ball".....they didnt say pittsburgh is challenging whether it was a first down or not.....you can make a ball spot challenge anytime even if a first down isnt involved...

This was my interpretation of the rule also, but apparently that's incorrect.  I forget what game I was watching (non-Eagles game within the last month) and the same situation played out.  Coach challenged the spot as it was marked just short of a 1st down.....like a foot.  Refs reviewed the play and the commentators were talking about how even if the ball is moved forward, if it didn't go far enough for a 1st down then the coach would still lose the challenge.  The ball was moved forward but not far enough for a 1st and the coach lost his challenge.  Doesn't make any sense at all, but for whatever reason that seems to be the rule.

Post by: QB Eagles on November 19, 2012, 07:23:24 PM
I believe that technically you cannot really challenge the spot of the ball. You can only challenge whether a first down or touchdown has been achieved or not. [And now of course the touchdown issue has been moved to booth review.]

As a separate issue, the refs reserve the right to put the ball wherever they think it should be. So if they think it should be moved forward a foot and not get a first down, they can do that, but it doesn't impact whether you won the challenge or not.

they arent like PI or holding because you cant challenge those calls....if you wanna make it so that spots arent challengable then fine....but if you are allowed to challenege where the ball is placed on a particular play and if your challenge shows that the refs were wrong then you shouldnt be penalized...its silly
Title: Re: Around the NFL - 2012
Post by: Tomahawk on November 20, 2012, 09:11:39 AM
The spot of the ball can't be challenged. The coaches' challenge is to the spot of the ball in relation to a first down. Since the refs are fair, they'll move the ball if they got the initial spot wrong, but if the new placement doesn't garner a first down (nose of the ball is beyond the necessary line), the challenge is unsuccessful.

In the wake of the ACL-shredding hit by Jets guard Matt Slauson on Texans linebacker Brian Cushing, we reported that the Competition Committee will be taking a closer look in the offseason at blocks below the waist.

Peter King of SI.com and NBC's Football Night in America reports that the Competition Committee currently plans to consider eliminating all blocks below the waist.  King believes the league office is "solidly behind" a comprehensive ban, but that resistance from coaches likely will prevent a full prohibition.

I've said this before, but there is nothing worse than hearing some icehole at a game say "oh that's ok, I have Victor Cruz on my team" after a TD.

Title: Re: Around the NFL - 2012
Post by: QB Eagles on November 29, 2012, 07:27:22 PM
He's been garbage on and off the field. McClain's only chance to turn around his career is for him to end up somewhere with good coaches who can have a crack at resurrecting the ability he had in college. If he ends up on a team that fits that description I think he still has more of a career than Brandon Graham.

He ended up not being released (yet).

Monte Kiffin eying return to NFL

QuoteMonte Kiffin will return to the NFL
Posted by Mike Florio on November 29, 2012, 9:17 PM EST
kiffin_barber_071125_wide Getty Images

If Lane Kiffin is going to survive at USC, he'll have to do it without the help of his father.

The school has announced via Twitter that Monte Kiffin will be leaving the Trojans after the team's bowl game to pursue opportunities in the NFL.

Previously, the elder Kiffin's name had been floated as a possible candidate for a consulting job in Seattle, given his connection to Seahawks coach Pete Carroll.

But we're more intrigued by the possibility that Kiffin could be reunited Jon Gruden.  With Kiffin running the defense and Gruden running the offense, the Bucs won a Super Bowl 10 years ago.  Kiffin then remained with Gruden for six more years, even though Gruden had inherited Kiffin from Tony Dungy's staff.

Kiffin, 72, may not want to be a defensive coordinator at the NFL level again.  But the man who spent 25 seasons as an NFL assistant coach definitely brings something to the table.

The Bears are interviewing the head coach of the Montreal Alouettes, Marc Trestman. Lurie's gotta be kicking himself for not being the first to make this "smartest guys in the room" move.

Trestman does have a couple decades of NFL coaching experience, including being the OC of the Raiders Super Bowl team in 2002.
