Thanks everyone. Let me say the folks I worked with at FFToday have been a class act and I'll always be appreciative of the opportunity I had there and I cannot understate that fact. At the same time, I'm really stoked about joining FBG. This is a great environment for football talk, fantasy...

Steve McNair's scramble on the final drive of the game when he keeps his balance with the odds against him and delivers a throw that gets them into the red zone. That was a fave, so I think you can all guess which play was the worst for me.

:goodposting: Great job Jeff!

Michael Clayton was quoted (either last year or the year before) that after his terrific rookie season he spent the next few years partying rather than training. He literally talked about drinking too much and staying out late. As an athlete you need 8 hours of sleep a night and proper...

Good point, but I guess I would argue that if Lovie Smith stays as long as Fisher has and makes this team a contender again despite missteps with their drafting of talent, that I believe Smith will win people over like Fisher has. The whole thing about public perception is a difficult animal...

I see your points, but I would imagine there has only been one playoff season where Tennessee actually didn't enter with expectations for them to even win the first game. The points I'm making is that Tennessee wasn't even expected to be carrying a stick for a majority of their playoff...

Right, my bad...but you get the point.

Job 1 for a coach is the development of talent and designing a scheme that will help them win games with the available talent. Where I disagree with you is the procurement part. That's the personnel department that is headed up by the GM and scouts. We too often blur the line between roles and...

I know Chris Mortensen reported this weekend on the ESPN pregame show that Kerry Collins has publicly stated he would return to the Titans only if he were guaranteed the starter spot in '09. He also said Jeff Fisher wants Collins as the starter. I don't doubt that last point one bit, because...

A great move for Tebow to stay in school. Unless he improves by leaps and bounds with his ability to throw an accurate pass on the move that travels more than 10 yards down field, be more patient looking to his right, improve his slow and often elongated wind up, and hit the intermediate passes...

Very good, but won't make it: Steve McNair and Rich Gannon. McNair's career wasn't so much about the numbers people focus on QBs, but opponents talk about him as a great player. He won't be a HOFer because injuries derailed his career at just the time Tennessee was ready to open up the offense...

I think your average might be a bit misleading. There are not 115 RBs starting in the NFL who were drafted between 2004-2008. There are maybe 12-15. Even if there were 40 players who see significant playing time for their teams that were drafted during these years the average is deflated because...

I'll take a stab at answering this question. First of all, I like Tebow as a second-day prospect but I have to disagree with your viewpoints. I recommend you try to consider an argument that isn't based on stats. Now I have no argument that Tebow was a statistically better QB in many respects...

Very outside chance, but if Kregg Lumpkin of the Packers can remain healthy I believe he can make a move there. The RB coach believes it and has commented Lumpkin has a chance to be a real find. He has good vision, strength, receiving skills, and power. If he can continue to regain some lost...

He started his first year. In his second year he had a 57.9 completion pct., 4555 passing yards, 25 scores, and 27 ints. He didn't fit the statistical profile I mentioned. He came close. BTW-these stats actually made him good enough to be in the Pro Bowl that year and most importantly lead the...
