Talib traded - after he sacked the Chiefs game he was a goner

good riddance

The Rams have the two biggest POS as their corners.

 

[Hasbro]

Rox bring back CarGo to make Nolan happy. Also because Parra and Desmond sucks so giving them less ABs is good thing and they hate Jordan Patterson.

Future of Colorado sports

He went yard on Stonewall Jackson

 

[Bonzai12]

The Rams have the two biggest POS as their corners.

Ha - I was thinking the exact same thing.

Peters must be really bad. Even the exec that drafted Peters (he’s now in Indy) wasn’t interested at all in talking trade for him. Now Peters is right next to a veteran who will probably encourage him to be even more of a prick.

 

[Pokecheque]

I'm fine with Talib going, but I'm just concerned where they're going to spend that newly-found cap room.

 

[Foppberg]

Not the way I saw it happening, at all. Sigh.

 

[The Abusement Park]

Is Russell Wilson gonna be with the Yankees?

 

[dahrougem2]

Hey, if he'd take a discount to sign in Denver I'd gladly welcome him here.

 

[Alex Jones]

Hey, if he'd take a discount to sign in Denver I'd gladly welcome him here.

He has to play in the right system to make up for his poor change of direction skills. That's probably not going to be Denver, the Broncos aren't really a fit.

 

[Bonzai12]

There’s a reason the Hawks are resigning Earl Thomas and dumping Sherman. They’re making the right choice.

That team is going through a wholesale change though. Can’t blame them - they desperately need to spend some change to protect Russell Wilson and give him some safety blankets. I’m not a Wilson fan but he’s an amazing athlete who just gets absolutely crushed every game.

Curious on why? He's one of the more classier guys in the league.

 

[Bonzai12]

Because Thomas is the much better player

Oh you meant Wilson - not sure why really. Just was never a fan but I respect the hell outta his game. He’s a lethal weapon when the pocket breaks down and the DBs and LBs are 10 yards downfield

 

[Foppberg]

Yeah ET is definitely the rock of our defense, I absolutely love Sherman and loved Lynch, but our team without Thomas is worse off than without Sherman.

 

[Bonzai12]

Tyrod Taylor to the Browns

Reports that the Broncos and Cardinals both put in offers.

Reading between the lines - Kirk Cousins is going to the Jets or Vikings

 

[5280]

Jesus, we put an offer on Tyrod Taylor?

 

[Pokecheque]

Jesus, we put an offer on Tyrod Taylor?

Eh...he eventually went for a 3rd rounder so I'm guessing it wasn't all that serious. I don't see a problem with that, he's at least good backup/interim material.

Wonder if they go after Foles or Keenum.

 

[Bonzai12]

I read something yesterday that the Broncos went after Keenum when he was with the Rams.

Makes sense - Gary Kubiak is the guy who brought Keenum along into this league.

I will happily take Teddy Bridgewater as a consolation prize in the Kirk Cousins sweepstakes

 

[famicommander]

Bridgewater was mediocre before the horrific leg injury.

 

[5280]

The problem to me is that there really aren't any good options out there. I'd take a flyer on Foles. Maybe he is a late bloomer. I don't have any idea if he would fit into our system, though.

 

[Foppberg]

Good thing Avs won today.

 

[Bonzai12]

Probably the first move I didn’t like from the 49ers but I think they’re desperate for corners

 

[famicommander]

Mammoth beat the Roughnecks tonight at Pepsi Center, 8-7.

In doing so they clinched a playoff spot.

One down, two to go. I'm so ready to see an Avs, Nuggets, and Mammoth playoff game live in the same season.

 

[Bonzai12]

Almost every one of these dudes out there is a bridge guy. If they’re asking for a #1 for Foles I say hell no.

But what you’re hoping for is that we get a good bridge guy in FA, a solid rookie QB, and then the Broncos are in the same position next year that the Eagles are in right now with Foles (ie everyone wants our bridge guy)

 

[famicommander]

Jokic seems to have figured out that he doesn't need to change his play style to accommodate Millsap; rather, Millsap is more than willing to adjust to Jokic's game. As a result the two of them have looked a lot more in-sync the last couple games. Very good sign.

Peter King’s MMQB weekly column is such a good read.

If you’re into football and don’t read it every Monday - you should. I love his journalism talents. It’s so difficult to find talented writers anymore. King will probably never leave SI but I wish he’d go to the Athletic. I’m slowly phasing ESPN out of my life completely.

he's a good story teller and writer.

i can't stand his hindsight takes, lying (usually to make NFL look good) and some terrible football opinions that guy at his position shouldn't have (''it makes no sense that defenses get tired faster than offense, patriots were just in better condition than the falcons'')
