YessSir32 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 One last thing...Lions sign LB Stephen Tulloch to one year deal. Any Titans fans wanna fill me in on him? I know we have at least 3 legit LBs now.I know I'm not a Titans fan, but the Lions get a hell of a player in Tulloch. He lead the Titans last year in tackles and knows Schwartz very well.Good, I knew he was a good player. He need some tackles and players from Tennessee play very well under Schwartz. Front 7 for the Lions looks good. A solid cornerback could really give this team a push. Detroit Falcons (NABL) | Detroit Gears (UFL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rams80 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Those receivers are good and all... but where's the running game for Arizona? It doesn't seem like Arizona is too worried about the running game.It's probably not a good idea to try running the ball in the NFC West this season.

TruColor Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Those receivers are good and all... but where's the running game for Arizona? It doesn't seem like Arizona is too worried about the running game.Beanie Wells will start, along with rookie Ryan Williams (2011 2nd round pick from VA Tech), and LaRod Stephens-Howling ("Hyphen") as the 3rd-down back. Tim Hightower was just traded to the Redskins.I think my Cardinals will be OK in the running game... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cujo Posted August 1, 2011 Author Share Posted August 1, 2011 Replacing Breaston with Edwards, solid upgrade. Fitzgerald, Edwards, Heap.. would be real good options for Kolb to throw to.Those would be some nice tools for Kolb to work with, but Cards' running game is almost non-existant and their defense is in absoulte shambles. Still a work in progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dexter Morgan Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Antonio Cromartie is insane to be listening to offers from Al Davis and the Raiders. When was the last time a free agent signing actually went well for Oakland? Fixed. Free agents do well when they get paid well. If Oakland offers more money than the Jets, and he signs with Oakland, he did well for himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dfwabel Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 What about Matt Schaub.They never got to the playoffs prior to Matt Schaub and they have not been to the playoffs with him.Before the new CBA, they were the team who practiced the least in pads, so they were soft then and will still be soft now.

He's light years better than David Carr. Texans are clearly a contender to win their division this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a couple >100 QB ratings and was the NFC offensive player of the week once.

Thus gave them middle to late first round picks.Green, Brunell, and Plummer while made the playoffs with their new team, did not make the Super Bowl. The expectation was a Super Bowl, hence a failure. A team should not do a trade to make the playoffs, they trade since they think they are a step away from the Super Bowl and winning it.
