4 picks in one half

I dont think anoyone thought this was at all possible. Landry Jones (Pitts backup qb) managed to sling 4 picks in one half. The crazy thing about this situation is the fact that Jones is a seemingly capable backup qb who has had his moments when given a chance. This is not some scrub but a legit backup in this league. Sure you can point to the fact that it is preseason but fuck if I have anything ele to write about. 4 interceptions, you really have to just throw into double coverage every play. Maybe this was all part of Jones's plan. Play well enough to be backup but just shitty enough to convince teams that you arent the answer. If thats the case I commend Mr. Jones. Backup qb is one of the best jobs in sports and Landry has mastered the art of mediocrity.

Tom Brady

The man, the myth, the legend. A fixture of professional sports for the last 20 years. Tom Brady seemed destine to ride off into the sunset on a half functional body and a relatively intact brain, donning a Patriots jersey. It seems that the ancient quarterback and his morally inept team had something else in mind. Brady met with Belicheck and thats that, no progress, no give and take. It seemed like a rather Belicheckian end to a 20 year long domination tour. The coach, of course, is known as an analytical decision maker who rather cut a player too early than too late. Anyone who watched Brady last year saw a noticeable drop in all statistical categories. When you arer 42 years old it is not unreasonable to see a steady decline in production. Just like that the six time superbowl champion hit the open market. It was not long before an ancient coach enamoured with ancient quarterbacks swooped in and took a chance on the hall of fame quarterback. From Brady's perspective, this is a ...

Free agency roundup part 2

Teddy Bridgewater: The Panthers decided to turn the page on Cam Newton after another injury- plagued season. The bizarrely haired, hieroglyphic writing QB was due for a change of scenery. Bridgewater, on the other hand, flashed serious skill while Drew Brees was on the shelf. He is still only 27 and could be a very good quarterback for Matt Rhule and co. He is a young qb on a reasonable deal, should be a win-win for both sides. Ryan Tannehill: I know I said I would focus on guys who changed teams, however I would be remiss if I did not address Tanny. The talented quarterback peeked at the right time down the stretch. He tore up the league in the second half of the season throwing 22 tds and 6 picks. In fact he and Derrick Henry almost got the Titans to a superbowl. Tannehill is good but hes not 4 years and 118 million dollars good. I think the Titans will live to regret this decision. Jack Conklin: A bit of a surprise cut by the Titans. The 25 year old was coming off of a so-so sea...

Its like Chirstmas

In these times of uncertainty it is rare that we receive any good news. Things appear to be getting more and more grim by the day. The coronavirius is like a freight train forcing quarantines and cancelling sports left and right. No one knows what tomorrow holds and it is a little unsettling. So when one is presented with good news it can be a great change of pace. If you are a Cardinals fan, like myself and three other people outside of Phoenix then yesterday was a glorious day. Deandre Hopkins is a Cardinal, I repeat, possibly the best receiver in the the league is a Cardinal! I know what you are thinking, we probably gave up too much. We must of had to mortgage the future right? Wrong, all it took was a second rounder, an overpaid has been and a fourth rounder. I love Bill O'Brien, his incompetence always peaks out at the right time. From the playoff debacle to hating his best player, BOB is my new favourite GM. Just handing out talent to the needy like some sort of idiotic robi...
