Thats a tough list but I'd take dez over Percy as a wr id also take him over Julio i believe he has better stats correrct me if I'm wrong.. also fitz but thats only because of his qb situation and age if he gets a good qb dez is under him in my opinion.

Was more so saying over looked because of the drama that follows the cowboys, somehow he is considered a diva which is incorrect.. a little slow yes but he isn't the flashy look at me type of guy people claim him to be. His stats are solid rising every year he has been in the league and they are better than many greats before and alot of his peers but he is over looked becaus of perception. Oh and his qb tossing picks like he has a paper route
sick.gif
he's definitely coming around  , but when julio and aj made such an immiediate impact

people got off the dez bandwagon ....also demaryius came around this year as well. dez is one of those

dudes where if he lead the league in receiving yards last year i wouldnt be suprised , but if his production

tailed off i wouldnt be completely shocked either. if he stays out of trouble and health is on his side

he can be a problem in the league for the next decade
 
If he fell off I'd be shocked I'm convinced that he gets it now, only injuries can slow him down not many wr like him that just manhandles the cb. His rook a gets a pass because of him missing his jr year of football plus his injury that season. his second year in was still pretty good considering the lockout and him being the 3rd option due to witten austin and crayton.
 
This RB rule is a joke. It'll be interesting to see how flag happy the refs get. There's already no consistency with the new rules, they throw flags on normal sacks and when DB's clearly lead with their shoulder.


It's ******* football, dudes are gonna get hit.

did i just read this?

andre had 1,600 receiving yards wit 112 reception last year playing with matt shuab
in a balanced offense........mind you playing hurt the first half of the season


anquan boldin isnt even in the same universe as dre , cane bias aside

I defintely agree. I worded that wrong. Dre is in my top 5 as of now. Just saying he is over the hump at 31yrs/old. Q is defintely not in that realm.

Edit: ill take my L dude has at most 3 years of production.

It's gonna be weird seeing Ed in a different jersey. I thought he would go to the Pats cuz the Texans ain't doing anything with Matt Schaub as their QB.

Schaub will be gone after this season, at least.

i want to agree because i think the team will look at his cap number and decide it's not worth the production, but at the same time we don't really have any replacement lined up so we'll see

we have a lot of young talent at QB in Keenum, McGee, and Yates.
 
Ted Johnson called Vince Wilfork’s wife ugly and Wilfork is furious
By Steve DelVecchio March 22, 2013 - Posted in Football



Former New England Patriots linebacker Ted Johnson was teammates with Vince Wilfork in 2004, the year before he retired from football. The two defensive stand-outs won a Super Bowl together that season, but I’m going to go out on a limb and guess they were never really close friends. And if they were, they aren’t anymore.

Johnson now works as a radio host for CBS Houston. On Friday morning, a caller asked him to name the player he played with that had the ugliest spouse during his time with the Patriots. Johnson seemed hesitant, but he went ahead and answered the question anyway. He probably should have left it alone. The Big Lead has the audio here.

“You know what, I’ve got it,” Johnson said. “And this is a big, big man. This guy had his way with the Texans this year. He won’t hear this — Vince Wilfork.”

Teddy may have already learned his first valuable lesson of working in radio — everyone hears everything. They may not be listening live, but sports bloggers like us make sure that anything worth hearing is heard. Such was the case with Johnson’s regrettable comment about Bianca Wilfork, which led to the following message on Twitter from Wilfork to Johnson.

Vince-Wilfork-Ted-Johnson-tweet.jpg




Wilfork and his wife are very involved with the Patriots’ charitable organizations and do a lot of work for the community, so New England fans would probably know who she is if they saw her. We’ve seen the mayor of Boston screw-up Wilfork’s name before while wearing his jersey, but that didn’t seem to bother the 325-pounder. Understandably, Johnson’s comment struck a nerve. Naturally, Johnson has already attempted to apologize:

I just made a huge error in judgement and want to apologize to Vince and his wife for comments I made earlier today on a Houston radio show
— Ted Johnson (@TedJ52) March 22, 2013
Vince and his family are outstanding people who I have admired since they arrived in NE.I learned a big lesson today and feel terrible.
— Ted Johnson (@TedJ52) March 22, 2013




Just speculating here, but it’s probably too late for apologies. Everyone makes mistakes, but Johnson can’t take back what he said. Live and learn.

Ted got shook. :lol

where exactly is the talent?
Yates won a playoff game BEFORE Shuab, McGee never really got a chance in Dallas,  and have you seen Keenum throw the ball?

yates was very mediocre in his 6 starts when schaub got hurt. there was a reason mcgee wasn't getting a chance in dallas and it probably has to do with him not being very good in college either. yeah i've seen keenum throw the ball, he did it for like 6 years at UH and still was a late draft pick for good reason.

any other questions?

edit: i forgot to mention, how you forgot to mention that after that playoff game that yates won, how he threw 4 stupid interceptions the next game

in Yates "mediocre" starts he had 61% completion pr., a QBR of 80ish, and a 300 yd 2 TD performance in I believe his second game. As for Keenum he holds 3 of the most relevant QB Record in the NCAA (the kid can play) and McGee didn't get  a chance because Jerry Jones is a stubborn old bastard.

Smh what a douche
 
Bears sign LB D.J. Williams on a 1yr deal.

Low risk / high reward move. One last chance for Williams. Super talented, but lots of off the field issues.

Which is why they are all backing up a mediocre qb

I think itll pay off.
They got him for super cheap.
If he cleans his act off the field he will be such a major upgrade over Urlacher.

Think the Bears won with this one, IMO.
 
So Baltimore is starting on the road on Thursday night cause the O's won't budge. Why don't they just play Wednesday then? They did it this year.
