Yup. Also, given Parnell's problems getting healthy, the depth at OT is tenuous at best.

The travel considerations for games in Europe are daunting, but the NBA (and basketball in general) is pretty popular in Europe and a good bit more popular than the NFL or MLB.

FWIW - Just the other day Spagnola said that the contracts of Livings and Bernadeau are essentially structured as two year contracts (i.e., the third years are too expensive). I don't know if the above is being factored in (to any extent) by the Joneses now.

I have little confidence in Goodell. ... I'll just leave it at that.

I agree on all counts.

It is so hard to tell what really went down. Or at least how it went down. If Stephen and Jerry were putting the "hard sell" on Moore, could be the Moore was initially persuaded ("couldn't say no") but then reconsidered. That's a little different from Moore actively seeking a job, eagerly...

Right. I gotta say that I was pleased when I first heard about the agreement with Moore, but it also sort of puzzled me, because I thought that out of Arkin, Bernadeau, Kowalski, and Livings ... at least one of them would be a serviceable starting guard (assuming that Leary was already...

I just listened to Garrett's press conference. To me, Garrett wasn't so much gushing about Waters, but recounting Waters' accomplishments (# of Pro Bowls, former NFL Man of the Year, made the Pro Bowl after showing up late in New England) and then noted that Waters hasn't played in 18 months...

He's only 41. And in the Hall of Fame!

Waters' price tag increased with this morning's Jet crash, wouldn't you think? I got to wonder what kind of shape Waters is in after sitting out a year. The man is 36 years old. If Waters really is an upgrade and Jerry is willing to pay over two million for a single season -- Arkin...

LOL I thought Randle was mildly disappointing in Canton. But it is very early yet and it maybe he needs some more time to acclimate. On the plus side, Tanner seems to be showing improvement over last year.

It isn't the end of the world that a 33 year old out-of-shape player decided not to join the team, but it sure happened in an odd way.

I'm sure that you right, but starting a 4th round rookie at LT is likely to be a problem.

Yeah, there is some over-hyping in that article. Take this for example: That's total b.s. Selvie was out of football. The Cowboys change schemes, are thin at DE, suffer a season ending injury to a reserve DE, and Selvie is signed off of the street. This is the biggest f'ing break of...

Also, based on press conferences and media reports, it sounds like Arkin is a nice guy who is trying hard. He's showing some improvement, but isn't ready to start. One gets the sense that Garrett likes and respects Arkin as an RKG, but that Arkin isn't quite cutting it.

Just saw on ESPN that the Packers are relying on a 4th round rookie to man LT after an injury to their regular starter. Arkin was a 4th round pick by the way.

I'm feeling very good about Frederick. After watching some of his interviews, it really does seem that he's a particularly bright guy. This team has played dumb for several years now. I think having a brighter guy on the field ... as the leader of the OL .. will make a positive difference. I...

Some of you guys are too young to remember when teams were actually ready to play in Week 1 of the regular season. Shorten the preseason and you shorten teams' readiness. Lengthen the regular season and you lessen the meaning and impact of each individual game.

I'm guessing if he looked great during practices with his previous 4 teams, he'd have seen more NFL snaps and more pass rushing attempts. Don't get me wrong, I'm hopeful that he'll be a serviceable backup. But I don't think he's a star in the making.
