Would you be mad at me then, for counting down the days until the Pats cut Brady??


Different case, because we all know Belichick can't contend without Brady. He wasn't a genius when he coached in Cleveland...



He was a genius coach before it was cool to be a genius coach, so you probably never heard of his genius when he was in Cleveland


Yah because he wasn't widely considered a genius before Cleveland with the giants. Like he never had a single game plan that was so brilliant it was enshrined in the hall of game or anything *eyeroll*

...back when he had Lawrence Taylor. *eyeroll*

It's almost as if his IQ soared to 180 when he had the best defensive player in the game, and then again later when he had arguably the best QB in the game, but dropped to 110 in between. So strange...

Did anyone see the Aggies curbstomp SC?

That was fun...

You can tell the Aggies coach were a bit peeved of all the "life after Manziel" comments.

And maybe... just maybe Clowney had more impact on SC's defense than folks gave him credit for a year ago.

Houston Texans are going 10-6 and snatching the wild card spot. Dallas will go 7-9.

That's my only prediction.

I think you're stretching a bit there Kronk.... Dallas will probably go 6-10 (if they're lucky), but if they're really lucky, and Romo gets hurt, they may bump up to about 8-8

Looking at the schedule... 9-7 is definitely doable for Houston 10-6 maybe but not likely. Depends on their Def secondary.

Yes, go to your Draft Central and than Pre-draft rankings. Fiddle around.

It looks like I made out fairly well for some positions, at least at the starter level... But some of those guys' bye weeks are going to hurt.... I mean, who the feth is Lamar Miller?? (aside from a RB from Miami)

If i had to guess, I'd say my team will be carried by three people: Rodgers, Lynch and SEA Defense

I have Brady on all my fantasy teams this year. Never chose him myself, but I wont complain. There's only one defense I would want over the Bengals.

Yah in a 12 person league usually you'll have 1 maybe 2 spots that are strong then the rest are just squeaking out 5-10 points. I feel pretty comfortable with my team except that I put jermichael finley on my do not draft board and drafted him anyways ;(

Here's one for the "Nice work if you can get it" File...

Practice Squad Salary
Practice squad players earn a minimum of $6,300 per week, which totals $107,100 for a 17-week stint. Note that there is no maximum practice squad salary. A team can pay a practice squad player however much they want to entice the player to stay on their practice squad. Practice squad salaries do count against a team's cap space, however.
