The Bills wouldn't draft Luck with the number one pick even if they end up getting it.

They certainly would, the stuff about his arm not being strong enough for Buffalo winters is rubbish,i have seen pretty much every snap he has played as well as his spring games and some of his HS games... its strong enough.
But its his touch,accuracy,footwork,mechanics and understanding of the game that sets him apart from every other College QB.


If/When he comes out he will be the top prospect, they are already calling the draft the "Andrew Luck sweepstakes". Its pretty much the consensus by all/any draftniks that he will be the highest graded QB to come out since Peyton.

There are already strong rumors that if he declares, harbaugh will go to the NFL and the 2 events are dependant on each other. and if that happens expect whichever team Harbaugh goes to(Bills,Cowboys,Bengals,Panthers) seem to be the frontrunners, to trade the farm for Luck

PS despite what he says about academics , the thinking is he will come out, just look at the quotes in this article....

Plus If i am not mistaken he was taking AP classes in HS anyways, and would graduate in 3 yrs, would he blow $50 million promised , to stay in school for ONE semester to graduate?

I think not.

I think Pat Devlin and Nick Foles are also fine prospects. Both can develop into NFL starters.
Jake Locker .. I dunno its boom or bust with him. I wouldnt go near him TBH
Christian Ponder is a 50/50 for me, but i cant deny he has some tools.
Blaine Gabbert? the more you look at him the better he becomes.

All other prsopects are FA/ Practice squad types.

Well....

Philly and ATL look strong....They're def the teams to beat....I love comeback stories and its great to see Vick playing better than ever...I wonder if he'll keep it up and stay healthy all year??

But dont be surprised when the Saints start playing back to last season's form....Once we get Reggie Bush (really opens up the offense) and especially Pierre Thomas (most underrated RB in the NFL) back...we'll finally get back our balance from last year that made our Offense so unstoppable....

Our D is statistically having a much better year than last (minus TO's) but with Darren Sharper back in the line-up....It seems the ball just lands in his hands....

I think we avenge that gift we gave the Falcons earlier this year (we shanked a 29 yd chipshot FG in OT).....That game (Mon nite, week 16) will prob decide the South and the first round bye....I expect we'll def get them back....

Oh and dont forget to watch us bring them Cowgirls back to reality this Saintsgiving!
 
yeah, some people are sleeping on the Saints. I'm not. they still look above-average, and I can't fathom how much better they will be when they have an actual threat at RB with Reggie Bush back. it always helps to not have to throw the ball over 40 times a game
 
And Brees has been in a mini-slump.....although he leads the league in TD's, he's also 2nd or 3rd in the league w/ 14 INT's.....

I like our FA rookie RB Ivory....he's had a few 100+ yrd games but we havent been that consistent....We need our ground game back!
 
at the beginning of the season some people called the Saints the sleeper of the season. I wouldn't be surprised if they snuck their way there under everyone's noses. Hypnotik -- i sent you a PM, we are in the same city now! I won't be in NOLA again for awhile. Lets hang out before you head back to The City of The Dead. <3
 
As for the Falcons, they are for sure a team to think about well into the post season. They are having an excellent year and playing well.

Just cause he'd swap numbers for rings, doesn't make Brady better (or even "as good").

If you switched coaching staffs, and kept everything else constant (throughout their respective careers), you don't think this would be a blow-out?!!!

Do you NOT WATCH THE GAMES?!!!!!

Brady's an excellent PLAYER.

Manning's a GREAT Player/Coach/Sometimes Only Decent Colts Player On The Field.

There's NO WAY that this year's Colts are still tied for first place with Brady instead of Manning.

Manning's the G.O.A.T.

Y'all bettah recognize!

No argument about the brady/manning thing, but if you're gonna play the "only decent player on the field" card then the MVP this year is Phillip Rivers for sure.

He is on course to shatter the single season yardage record by alot and his recieveing corps has been hurt worse than the colts. Jackson, floyd and gates and crayton have all had injuries or contract issues.At least manning can rely on wayne to be there.

Rivers is a leader on par with manning aswell IMO, the fact that he is #6 in the pro bowl polls right now behind guys who have teams stacked with playmakers boggles my mind.

PREFACE:

I'm a HUGE fan of the Chargers & of Rivers.

With that said, it's AWFULLY easy for an excellent QB to pile up yardage when your team is trailing in almost every single game.

Manning's known for "choking" but he HAS won big games.

Rivers hasn't even gotten his team INTO a big enough game in which he has had a chance to choke/ not choke.

Love Rivers.

But love Manning MUCH MUCH more.
 
yeah I'm not too big into Rivers. one could say he hasn't choked... but then again he has. how many times has he lost in the first or second round of the AFC playoffs? losing at this early of a stage, instead of losing in the SB is much worst
 
Took the Saints and the over in this next game.
-4.5 AND 48.5

And picked Cincy/Under for later.... Even At -10 AND 43 O/U

COMPLETELY agreed!

EXCEPT . . . you accidentally forgot to list the defending Super Bowl Champion, 16-3 last season, 8-3 this season, getting healthier as we speak.

Why, oh, why, are they not the presumptive favorite to repeat AT LEAST in the weak NFC?!

The Packers were a chic pre-season pick, and like the Saints, they started slowly, but seem to be coming on strong.

Vick is flat-out SCARY good - he can win games by himself.

The Falcons are fluff, imo - one of those teams who magically goes 12-4, but who scares no one (they certainly don't scare me).

And the Giants - I don't get why ANYONE thinks they're good - they JUST got CREAMED by lowly Dallas and then got creamed AGAIN by Philly.

They also got DESTROYED in Week Two to Indy.

Obviously, this is a "Great bad team" - they win impressively against the many medium-to-bad teams, but they simply lack the talent to play with the Super Bowl contenders.

Colts OR Jets vs. Saints OR Eagles is what I expect - any of those four match-ups would be intriguing and exciting.

LOVE this time of year!

Im still not convinced on the Saints this year. They have played one top team (the steelers) which they won because of the steelers SUCK that game more than them playing good. And they have one of the easiest schedules in the NFL left and have ended up having one of the easiest schedules in the NFL this season. They play atlanta twice and a game againts baltimore.. so a total of what...3 teams that have a chance at anything.

They will have to prove themselves in the playoffs this year.

5th in the NFC right now, imo. Yeah, mostly because of their easy schedule and because they don't have a healthy running back. Bush just got back but he hasn't yet proved that he can live up to his potential. Nice comeback drive yesterday, but they better thank Roy Williams for that as well.

BIG NFC games this week - Packers vs Falcons and Eagles vs Bears. Looking at the remaining games, the Falcons have the easiest ride to #1 in the NFC. Let's go Packers!


fuck you, you Philadelphia fan you

lol I know you're kidding, but, a lot of Eagles fans around our age(mid 20's I'm assuming) do not like the Steelers. I guess the fact that the "other" PA team won two recent Super Bowls rubs Eagles fans the wrong way.
 
yeah, I'm kinda low-key at bars when I have to watch Steelers games due to Browns/Bengals being favored on TV, but that last time Philly beat up on the Steelers in Pittsburgh's second Super Bowl season - the Eagles fans were jumping up and down in front of me and trying to grab my sacred Black Terrible Towel. you would think that they have never won in their life before that...

there is for sure a little Eastern PA VS Western PA rivalry. lets face it, they should be two different states anyways
