Man, I entered a work pool this week. I had San Fran over the Vikings, and my arch-nemesis Favre throws the game-winner. I have Tennessee over New York, and no Titans seem to be able to catch the ball. I had Houston over Jacksonville, and the Jones-Drew of old returns. And I had Washington over Detroit.

I've been wrong on those four thus far, and it's not like they were runaways. Going into the fourth quarters, I was feeling pretty good about most of these picks. :(

Having now seen the highlight, I gotta really question Singletary a bit.

When you know the Hail Mary pass is coming, you generally put six guys in the end zone to knock it down. I only saw two guys back there in the vicinity of the receiver. That's a bad defensive call.

I'll have to check the clip again to see if there were more guys back, but from what I saw it looks like he put more guys into pressuring Favre rather than coverage. On a normal play, I can understand that, but on a last second play where a Hail Mary is the only option, no :nonod:

I picked Det this week, but missed on Houston and Tenn. SF looked pretty good on offense and defense from when I started watching it at the beginning of the 4th Q, I wanted to see how good Minny looks b/c we play them this yr.

      BREAKING:Panthers re-sign Chuba Hubbard

      By Ricky Spanish · Posted

      People comparing this deal to CMC, Williams, or Stewart is laughable, and I'll break the numbers down as to why: In 2020 We made CMC the highest paid RB ever. We gave him a $64 million over 4 years with $38 million guaranteed. That's $16 million on average. In 2011 we extended Williams, then in 2012 we extended Stewart. These extensions were 12 and 13 years ago: Williams - 5 years, $43 Million, $25 Million Guaranteed, Average of $8.6 Million per year Stewart - 5 years, $36 Million, $23 Million Guaranteed, Average of $7.3 Million per year Let me do the math for you: The Salary Cap in 2020 when we Signed CMC was $198.2 Million. CMC accounted for 8% of our total cap that season. The Salary Cap in 2012, when we had both Williams and Stewart under contract, was $120.6 Million. Those two combined to take up 13.1% of our total cap that season. Without the cap going up next season (and it will) Chuba is taking up 3.2% of our total cap. That's it. Not only are we paying Chuba HALF of what we were paying CMC per year, and LESS than what we paid Williams over a decade ago, shows how much less significant the contract extension is compared to those other moves. I really am not following how people are calling this contract a "big" money contract on a running back and a waste of cap space. This is a solid starting RB contract in the modern NFL.

      Yeah Brown was shown to be a lot more important even in his second year

      Brian Burns Revenge Game

      By Ricky Prickles · Posted

      I remember some of those poor showings by Peppers but even in those times I don't feel like Brian Burns would be anywhere close to his level. Peppers was better than Burns in every way. I've never seen Burns even once show that he could take an entire game over and severely affect the outcome and for the money he wanted I sort of expect him to have that Peppers ability. I know our defense is weak now but I'm still glad he is gone and so happy we didn't pay him that monstrous contract he wanted.
