Cosmic Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 I'm thinking Harrison probably knows the Steelers' defense pretty well, and the Patriots know they're probably playing the Steelers in a few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I mean how could Harrison be considered a traitor when it was the Steelers that let him go? I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWhiz96 Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Whatever. The Pats did this in '14 when LeGuarrette Blount whined to Belichick off the field during a game and was cut. He was signed less than 24 hrs. later. At least the Steelers smashed a bad team for once. IDGAF about what happens next week, as long as our stars stay healthy.

ozzyman314 Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Wasn't Blount cut because he & Bell were arrested for smoking one? Red Sox: 8 Celtics: 17 Bruins: 6 Patriots: 5 Phantom Merch Collector. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kramerica Industries Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Blount stormed out on the team after a Monday Night game and that was the end of that. Likely because he wasn't happy getting partial snaps behind Bell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 overheard on sports talk radio today in Phila - hosts: "last night didn't go well - how long is it going to take the fans to get over last night's win?" "it's always hard doing shows after a performance like that, just how bad was that win?" Callers: "I don't know what to say anymore, I give up on this team after that win" "that win was terrible, and now with two bye weeks, we have to wait three weeks to get another shot at it." Keep in mind, it's been as positive as I can ever remember around here for the past few months, and even the reaction to Wentz' injury was unexpectedly positive.

Really? There are 32 teams in which Player X will label Player Y as a "cancer" And typically, the starter complains about the backup. In this case, I think this is more Alabama on Ohio State crime, combined with Apple's issues with his adopted father. Collins would call a former Tide teammate as a cancer.

Oh, that's bad. Never heard that, and wish I didn't. Stop it with the Wentz injury. He appears in the locker room as a force ghost and offers words of wisdom. I'm sure in the playoffs, he'll force ghost his way into the huddle (along with Rocky) just to inspire the team. There's no problem. They'll either play the Rams or Panthers in the second round, and they've already beaten both - on the road - and this time they'll be at home. Wentz was merely a vessel that was inhabited by the spirit of Eagles Nation. That spirit will shortly make its way into Foles' vessel, and everything will be OK. I don't see any way this season doesn't end with them doing the job for the Patriots in Minnesota, and I'm kinda pissed that their recent SBs will have been there and in Jacksonville, vs true SB cities. The bulletproof glass thing is for another thread, and is something I've thought a lot about since it became a controversy a month or so ago. Hell - the fact that bulletproof glass even exists is an indictment on our society. Again... for a different thread.

The NFL brought down the hammef in 2015 with a fine for Blount and a suspension for Bell (both should've been suspended, but again whatever). And Vet I'm gonna tell you what I told my resident Eagles family members on Christmas...without Wentz, you're doomed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GDAWG Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 In regards to the Panthers, they may not be the last team with ownership issues over the next few seasons. It's a bit surprising that Jerry Richardson did not hand over ownership of the team to his son, Mark. While several teams ownership situations will probably end up in the hands of the children of the current owner in the next few years, the ownership situations in New Orleans and Oakland will be interesting. I would think ownership of the Saints and Pelicans would belong to Gail Benson when Tom Benson dies, but who knows. As for the Raiders? Well, Mark Davis has no children and was an only child, so it'll be interesting to see what happens to the Raiders after Mark Davis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't Carol Davis the owner of the Raiders and her son Mark the one who manages it?Or is the Davis family share held in a trust?I think the Davis's only own 47% but have control of the decision making.

When I check my on screen TV guide it still says Sunday Night Football. They canceled because there's no winner takes all game. I would have thought they'd have flexed Panthers at Falcons. NBC pays for a full season of SNF. So they must be getting some sort of refund. While Panthers-Falcons couldve been the SNF game in week 17, if the Saints beat TB at the 4pm slot the late game is for nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pauly Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 It could of been flexed for 7pm with the Falcons playing for a wild card assuming Seattle would beat Arizona earlier that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninersdd Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 I think if CAR-ATL was the Sunday Night game, then conceivably if the Saints win, then the Panthers would be locked into the 5 seed thus they wouldn’t have to play their studs. Also this would hurt Seattle since they’re relying on a Falcon loss to get in(plus they have to beat Arizona, which they should do).
