What about the Ryan Williams? He looked pretty good in the preseason and if he's brought up as a starter he may not have to deal with the ST issues.
Unless we sign him to a futures contract, he is a free agent.

There are some that can move him out of the pocket. The strategy used was a cover defense with 3 or 4 rushing. I didnt see very much effort to blitz or move up the middle. Virtually all defensive rushes came from positions that kept Rodgers in the packet. There were a half dozen times that anyone laid a hand on him.


If Richard Dent (insert your favorite pass rusher here) played right DE for the Cowboys yesterday this game wouldn't have been close. They need that piece.

Thing is, they don't grow on trees.

I'd go after Greg Hardy on the cheap the way things stand right now, unless of course he's subject to more NFL discipline.

But they didn't have it so it's stupid to bring it up.

Still.

I was fucking annoyed.

Look at this mealy mouthed little fucking bitch Blandino describing why this play wasn't overturned:

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap2000000310656/article/dean-blandino-says-referees-made-correct-calls-in-playoff-game

I really wonder how much dick this little PC company man had to suck to get the job he has because he's completely full of shit.
He is on the side of instant replay and second guessing. Most of his career he has been on the outside, PR side versus being on the field and making the calls.

Of course, that bitch boy Goodell came up in the league's PR department in New York, do you think it's a coincidence that vast majority of what the league does these days is about protecting its image and not "tarnishing the shield" no matter what?

Yea, I'm sure the NFL had no clue about Ray Rice knocking his fiance the fuck out, they had to go get some former FBI fuck to lie for them. That's all this fuck is, a mouthpiece for the league, his only job is to protect the reputation of all the incompetent piece of shit refs and their half-assed decisions.

Fuck him, fuck the NFL and fuck this little bitch for sucking his way to the top.

From Jerry Markbreit a few years ago...you know, a real ref...

When a catch is made by a receiver who comes down with both feet on the ground, the "football move" would be: stretching for a first down, diving out-of-bounds or running with the ball. If the "football move" is accomplished, and the receiver is then hit and the ball comes out, it is ruled a catch and fumble, instead of an incomplete forward pass.

Pretty much.

I am pretty disgusted with the NFL product right now.

Any ideas on how we manage our multiple priorities? Something has to give.
That's really not my problem. Its up to the GM. and how much he i s willing to appropriate against the cap but he did state that the two biggest priorities for the organization now is getting Bryant and Murray signex to a contract.

I just think his monster season might inflate his true worth. I can't help but wonder how he bounces back from so many carries, knowing that too will likely factor into the outcome.

Whether it is true or not is as always a matter of opinion but Jones thinks he is a player he wants to keep and my opinion is he will do evefything he can to keep him. It's just a matter of time until the outcome will be known.

Yea, that one is tough to look at, and it's the play that makes me want to move on from Murray.
Agreed. Thanks for being a workhorse this year. Thanks for allowing us to use you this year and wear you down while only paying you $2million in the process.

Thanks for continuing to hold the ball with one hand and always forgetting to secure it. Now, GTFO!

I agree that yesterday blew, but I still think that is as close as we will get to glory any time soon. There was a little magic to this season, which sucked me in....far more than say the 2009 season. This was painful, because I honestly think we had a chance to make it. Beat Green Bay...I think we could beat Seattle again.

I do not see us duplicating a 12-4 division title next season unless a lot of things break right, which is about what happened this year. Romo is going to be a year older. Witten is at the end of the road. We are likely to lose some assistants and players. Just not confident we make the right moves to cope with the natural turnover.

And Jerry is still the GM.
I can see us duplicating that pretty easily.

I can see the defense getting better with growth by the young guys and some talent infusion.

I can see the offense getting better by just the coaches knowing the players better and the line getting more mature.

I think Escobar can start getting some of those Witten looks there is nothing showing he cannot be a good TE.

Romo is the wild card his health is a concern but I can see him being as productive with another year in this offense.

None of these things are outrages to expect and most are just natural maturation of a team, I really don't see any reason to be pessimistic.

I don't see any team in the NFC east taking a big step, I think it's us Seattle and Arizona as the favorites in the NFC next year.

Philly is going to be good and the NYG are going to have the benefit of Beckham all year long. I see them as the team most likely to make a jump up in the division.

I can see them all being ok but they still have big flaws.

Philly QB and NY secondary and o-line.

We have our secondary and DL...so we all have some glaring weaknesses.
