NFL Random Thoughts

[SuperKevin]

If I were a bandwagon fan of any team it'd be the Buffalo Bills. I have been a fan of Chan Gailey's since his 2008 season as KC's offensive coordinator and Buffalo right now is looking pretty good both offensively and defensively.

Hop on board. There's plenty of room.

This team needs defensive depth in the worst way. They are too tired to close out games

Yeah and being in 3 OT games in one season will wear you down as well. Also why the hell did Buffalo start to play the 4-3 defense again?

Lack of quality personnel for the 3-4

Picked every game at 1 correct, then picked every game at 4 wrong. The ups-and-downs of pick 'em.

Interesting Fact: Teams are averaging less than 5 yards a pass when targeting Tramon Williams this year, with four INTs in 62 targets.

Tramon Williams is becoming a shutdown corner?

Raiders need a quarterback

Shhhhh!

I never thought I'd be happy for Kerry Collins to start the next game.

From Pro Football Focus on Facebook: "Stat of the day: The Steelers' offensive linemen were whistled for 13 penalties vs. Buffalo, 10 of which were accepted. Compare that to the Falcons' offensive
line -- 11 penalties ALL SEASON."

And the man got paid!

From rotoworld:

Packers signed RCB Tramon Williams to a four-year, $33.074 million extension, including a $6 million signing bonus.
The deal includes $11.074 million in guarantees, with an increase in 2010 base salary as well. After playing out this season on a $3.043 million tender, Williams will earn $8.25 million on average through 2014. Williams was set to break the bank on the free agent market, so the Packers did well to lock him up. Outside of the Chiefs' Brandon Flowers, there hasn't been a better cover corner in the league this year.

BenJarvus Green-Ellis and Danny Woodhead are averaging 5.1 YPC since LG Logan Mankins returned four games ago.
Mankins is a fierce run blocker, and he's also helped to keep Tom Brady clean, as well, as the Patriots have given up just two sacks over the last three contests. "I think their running game has become more of a factor,’’ said an NFC pro personnel director. "Mankins brought back a lot of kick-butt attitude to that line.’’

I lold at "Bros before throws"

Cassel: Someday in the NFL I'll be better than Palmer and Leinert
Carrol: LOL

Hilarious.

So Sherrod Martin on the Carolina Panthers got fined $40,000 for a hit on a TE this past game while Andre Johnson only got fined $25,000 for throwing fist. Thats over 10% of what Martin makes, I don't want to sound like a homer but thats kind of bullshit.

 

[EmpireWF]

It was Martin's second fine on the season ($5k fine earlier in the year for the hit on Kevin Boss I think).

eh, the NFL gonna fine guys for questionable hits

NFL Network needs new announcers or at least mix up the rotation a bit. Bob Papa has pronounced "Glover Quin" wrong every time he has said his name. It's like Danny Glover, not like clover.

And Matt Millen needs to go the fuck away.

 

[EmpireWF]

Don't you dare speak ill of Mr. Bob Papa.

 

[Dan The Man]

The Texans are gonna go 7-9/8-8 until the end of time. Fuck them.

Get my hopes up every year, it is really getting upsetting. Now they just need another interior lineman, a corner, a safety (or two), and maybe a defensive lineman (or two). And stay healthy. That's it.
