NFL Discussion Thread: Pats win SB XLIX. Offseason begins

[Vincent Van Goat]

Don't think it was a necessary move at all, not as high on it. Dude has proved he can't keep his attitude straight. Even though they could cut him you're still bringing him into your system and letting him be exposed to your locker room. Don't know if it's worth it

People said the same about Moss when he signed with the 9'ers, TO when he went to Buffalo..


People don't change?

 

[buc em]

Bears were sure as hell not good to go with friggin Weems as their #3 receiver. If Wilson didn't get hurt they would have been straight.

Could have gone another route but yeah they needed a replacement

Also, TO was worth the risk for the Bills lol. People change all the time, I just don't think Holmes is worth it that's all

nah but you already have an ultimate diva in cutler who is playing great (yeah it's just preseason)... you have two huge weapons, a pretty decent TE, a great safety valve... now you go and get santonio and throw him in there? 

maybe he'll be a big team player, everyone knows he has the talent... but i just don't know why they are powering up on offense when one of the safety positions are still undetermined

Bears offense is going to be scary.

Such a legendary commercial:

Trestman factor. Defense determines a playoff berth.

Great move by the Bears. I see it as a low risk, high reward situation. The Bears offense will be lethal if Holmes pans out in a 4 WR set. He will be the 3rd WR for now until Wilson returns.

He's 30 with SB experience. Why not. His issue is maturity, attitude, and playing hard.

 

[sb]

don't matter Carr da Gawd is ready

this man knows.

Santonio Holmes has signed with the Bears

i still think the pack wins the division but the bears have put a good team together. holmes as depth at wr. low risk high reward. that division will be fun to watch.

yeah he's going to join a wr corps that's got a guy with mental issues (i love bmarsh and he's in a great place now but he's pretty open about his mental illness), a second year guy with unlimited upside but is still young -- has the whole mentor thing going for him, and just jump in? 

maturity, attitude, and playing hard are pretty big issues when you're 30. he's no josh gordon. but i guess we will see...

The NFC North offenses are scary man. Bears, Packers, and Lions :x

Packers offense is mediocre.

 

[chevellerollin]

I would be a cancer too if I was stuck on the jets

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Packers offense is mediocre.

How did you come to this conclusion

 

[certifiedflyboi23]

How did you come to this conclusion

I did my googles.

 

[stillin729]

I think the Packers offense really comes down to whether Boykin shines or struggles

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Don't see how the Packers are a mediocre offense regardless of Boykins

No respect. The Vikings will have an explosive offense this season.

lol wut

 

[stillin729]

They aren't but I'm saying he's the difference between solid and really good

 

[stillin729]

lol wut

If he struggles then Jordy is gonna be doubled all game making it harder to get Lacy going to open the field up

 

[MajinZuub]

Rodgers-Cobb-Jordy-Lacy is really good. If Boykin flops they still have Davante Adams ready to go as well.

 

[bartleby929]

Packers offense will never be mediocre as long as Rodgers is healthy. Cutler and Stafford are talented and all that but man Stafford really can do a Favre impression and Cutler... I think Cutler will be real good this year. But Rodgers is on a different level and has been on a diff level. So no, Packer's O will not be mediocre...
