Well, they had crap at the position and a lot of cap space, so why not. Did they overpay? Yeah, but it really doesn't matter right now.

A least he didn't hurt anyone in the tower behind the field.

Stunned he wasn't drafted by the Bengals. Or Trent Baalke.

Maybe John Lynch doesn't know what he is doing.

I think they want a team put together at the start of the season that any reasonable football observer could say "this team should be able to win 8 games." It has to be obvious if Hue is the problem.

RE: Ian Rapoport the Seattle Seahawks have postponed a scheduled workout (as set two weeks ago) until they know more about his stance on matters related to a) the national anthem b) his collusion lawsuit against the NFL c) his other stances against social injustice.

The Seahawks want a clear understanding on how the former San Fran 49ers signal-caller would proceed on those matters.

Mark Sanchez suspended 4 games for using performance enhancing drugs. He should ask for his money back.

Exactly. Who could ever know? Or, imagine him without the PEDs - the mind boggles.

If he is slower, maybe no butt fumble?

Mark, PEDs are just going to make it more obvious you stink. If you stay slow and soft, people will root for the underdog.

Drew Barrymore has a new TV show, and she's looking hot again. Maybe Reggie Mckenzie can bounce back, too.

According to that list, you should date John Dorsey and try to get him back in GB.

I do not understand how there can be any confusion about playing defense.

Triangle Coverages in Cover 7

Mod (Triangle Coverage)
Corner – The corner will begin in press alignment. The corner will be man-to-man on all #1 except when #1 breaks at 5 yards or less (e.g., shallow, 5 yard hitch). If #1 breaks at 5 yards or less, zone to deep quarter.
Apex – Take the first man to the flat. E.g., #1 if he runs a 5 yard hitch, #2 if runs out or bubble, #3 if the RB swings to the flat, etc. If #2 begins to go vertical, always reroute #2 before breaking to cover the first man to the flat.
Safety – Take all of #2 vertical. If #2 is not vertical, then bracket #1.
Hook – Depends on the call to the opposite side.
If Clamp, Cut, or Switch to opposite side: Take any #3 that will not be covered by the CB, Apex, or Safety. If none, defend the hook area deep to short.
If Mod or Box, or CC to opposite side: Man on #3.

Clamp (Triangle Coverage)
Corner – Soft (off) alignment. Man on #1 for everything except when:
#2 is out in first 5 yards, then take #2.
#1 breaks at 5 yards or less (e.g., shallow, 5 yard hitch), then zone to deep quarter.
Apex – Man on #2 except when #2 is out in first 5 yards. Then relate to #3. If no #3, then rob #1. You do not have #2 vertical.
Safety – Take #1 vertical if #2 is out in first 5 yards. Otherwise, take all of #2 vertical. If #2 is not vertical, then bracket #1.
Hook – Take any #3 that will not be covered by the CB, Apex, or Safety. If none, defend the hook area deep to short.

Cut (Triangle Coverage)
Corner – Off (soft) alignment. Take the first man to the flat. E.g., #1 if he runs a 5 yard hitch, #2 if runs out or bubble, #3 if the RB swings to the flat, etc.
Apex – If #3 releases to your side, then man on #2 for everything. If #3 does not release to your side, then man on #2 for everything except when #2 goes out to the flat, and then cut (rob) #1.
Safety – Take all of #1 vertical. If #1 is not vertical, then bracket #2.
Hook – Take any #3 that will not be covered by the CB, Apex, or Safety. If none, defend the hook area deep to short.

Switch (Triangle Coverage)
Corner – Press alignment. Man on #1 for everything.
Apex – Man on #2 except when #2 is out. If #2 is out, then rob #1 (think slant).
Safety – Bracket #2 except when #2 is under short, then rob #1. If #2 is out, then you have #2 alone man-to-man.
Hook – Take any #3 that will not be covered by the CB, Apex, or Safety. If none, defend the hook area deep to short.

CC (Triangle Coverage)
Corner – Off (soft) alignment. Man on #1 with outside leverage
Apex – Man on #2 with outside leverage.
Safety – Bracket the first man inside. If no one is inside, then bracket #2 if he’s vertical, or #1 if he is not.
Hook – Man on #3.

Bracket (Triangle Coverage)
Corner – Man-to-man on #1.
Apex – Man-to-man on #2.
Safety – Bracket the deeper of #1 and #2.

Box Coverages in Cover 7

Stubbie (Box Coverage)
Corner – Press alignment. MEG (Man Everywhere he Goes) on #1.
Strong Apex – Man on #2 for everything except when #3 is out or #2 runs under. If #3 is out, then take #3 man to man. If #2 runs under, then zone off.
Hook – If #2 or #3 runs under, then match that crossing route. Otherwise, wall off the #3 from the inside and take him to safety if he goes vertical.
Safety – Take all of #3 vertical. If #3 is not vertical, then take/bracket #2 if he is vertical.
Weak Apex – Depends on call to backside.
If Meg, Cone, Dog, or Tuff to backside: Take any #2 weak. If no #2 weak, then take first crosser.
If Cut to backside: Man on #2 for everything except when #2 goes out to the flat, and then rob #1.

Seahawk (Box Coverage)
Corner – MEG on #1 from an off and inside alignment.
Strong Apex – Jam #2 and play the first out from #2 or #3. If neither of #2 or #3 are out, then play #2 man-to-man.
Hook – If #3 is out, then cut off #2. Otherwise, man-to-man on #3. The Hook must stay on top of #3 if #2 is vertical since he has no help from the safety.
Safety – Bracket the deeper of #2 and #3. If both #2 and #3 are vertical, then midpoint both vertical routes.
Weak Apex – Depends on call to backside.
If Meg, Cone, Dog, or Tuff to backside: Take any #2 weak. If no #2 weak, then take first crosser.
If Cut to backside: Man on #2 for everything except when #2 goes out to the flat, and then rob #1.

what the hell is that? the checklist for launching a nuclear strike?

[red]

college just implemented a new kickoff rule that pretty much makes the kickoff worthless, and might eventually makes its way to the NFL

basically, the returner can call for a catch anywhere inside the 25 and it will be counted as a touchback and be placed on the 25

so no more kicking the ball high and short and forcing a shitty return (unless its us thats kicking off, because the other team always seems to return those for big gains

Why not just put the ball at the 25 and be done with it? And have everyone wear panties because they're turning them into pussies anyway.
