Quin Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Nov 18, 2011 -> 11:30 AM) LOL, I start looking at team cap figures, and immediately find an article at NY Jets Cap.com from today analyzing whether the Jets could take on Peyton Manning next year. Almost if something motivated the author to write it last night... One of my friends mentioned it last night before you. Probably overheard him.

LittleHurt05 Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Gabe Carimi has been placed on IR. Only played 6 quarters. Hopefully this doesn't turn into Marc Colombo part deux. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZoomSlowik Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Nov 18, 2011 -> 07:24 AM) I don't disagree with you about that. In the NFL, the QB gets too much of the credit or too much of the blame. People see the 1-4 record to start the year, then the 4-1 record since Tebow took over. Add in the 2 late comebacks vs. MIA & the Jets, and people see him as a winner leading his team on, despite his inability to throw a football. This exact phenomenon really bugs the s*** out of me. For some reason at the same time people are starting to realize that "wins" isn't a good stat in baseball and look at more pitcher-dependent stats, NFL fans and media seem to be giving way more credit to quarterbacks for "winning". It was easier to ignore when it was just in the Brady/Manning debate or when they were talking about Roethlisberger's standing historically, but with Tebow it's getting really ridiculous. You didn't hear s*** about McGahee's monster game against Oakland or Von Miller and the defense in the other wins, it's all f***ing Tebow. It drives me nuts, it's not all on him.

Kyyle23 Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 IIRC Columbo went out against either Dallas or St Louis(it was a dome team) and it was between the 4th and 6th game of the season. im probably 100 percent wrong edit: against the Rams on November 18th. i will never forget the slow mo replay of him getting rolled up and being able to see his knee dislocate in detail, it was horrific Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can only wear shoes that are the primary colors of your team. The Bears didn't choose orange as one of their primary shoe colors this season. So he gets fined. Stupid rule is stupid.

He rarely takes the suggested or safe pick, he is constantly trading down and then drafting players above their suggested draft position(danielle manning, michael haynes, grossman), his idea of finding an OL the past few years has been extremely low draftees and then throw them at Tice to coach them up, or to draft players with injury history(carimi, williams) and cross his fingers. Brad Biggs posted this an hour or so ago on twitter : Current #Bears 53-man roster includes 8 players that were drafted in Rounds 1 thru 3 by GM Jerry Angelo from 2002 thru 2011. how many of the players NOT on the roster are still in the NFL? i bet not that many Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
