That was an incredible finish. Thought the Falcons bottled it again but fair play to them grinding that out.

 

Think the Niners will beat them next week.

This is the best the Pats have played since the Texan blowout, part one. Title game will be as close as last year though.

 

Mind you, I think some work will be done in kick return coverage...

Disappointing defeat for the Texans, but the Patriots are on a different level. By some distance, they are the best time we've faced this season. Ach well, always next year. Need to pick up more offensive weapons in the draft and free agency. A more dynamic QB would be nice, but I struggle to see where we get one.

 

I now can't see past the Pats to win overall, but the 49ers were great last night. The Dirty Birds have a chance next week since it's at home, though.

I picked a Pats 49ers SB at the start of the season and it looks like that will pan out. Hopefully, my prediction of the winner is wrong.

 

PS Peebo - Hard luck to the Texans. I think your biggest need is another corner opposite Joseph. I was impressed with Posey, and hopefully he gets moved up the Texans' depth chart next season (in no way is this self-interest :whistling:)

Posey has emerged late in the season and looks a decent option. He apparently tore his Achilles today, which could set him back.

Tampa Mike straight up for a RB. Maybe add a couple picks and one of my TE.

 

I await your offers, gentlemen.

 

Or Nelson. :whistling:

Who's in for him? Donnie trying to unload Britt on you? :ninja:

 

4 of you's are making offers.

 

Wouldn't be fair to comment on their identities. :look:

A much better QB, think elite

 

Available:

 

Pierre Garcon and Reggie Wayne

 

For:

 

A starting running back (who isn't ancient)

 

and...

 

Adrian Peterson

 

For:

 

A fair price, i.e. half your team :10900:

Yes, yes, but Garcon isn't and Wayne's numbers from this year indicate he's still got a couple of years left in him.

 

I am not looking for young AND top 10/15. Just one or the other.

MJD is available for the right price.

Doozy of a story breaking in the last day about Notre Dame's 1st round draft candidate ILB Manti Te'o. He was the big story in college football this year because of the death of his grandmother and girlfriend of 3 years on the same day during the season, and how he played through the grief to lead his team to the National Championship.

 

Well, turns out the girlfriend didn't exist!

If it was just a Deadspin story it might have been written off, but Notre Dame have now confirmed she wasn't real but called Te's the victim of a hoax(!). Either he's the dumbest guy ever or there's another reason he continued to pretend for 3 years, and after her "death", that she was his girlfriend.

Alright folks.... am back from holidays :(

 

Open to trade offers again - to make things easier I've been through my roster and broken it down to three types;

 

Key Players - don't want to lose these guys unless the offer is an extremely good one. Any speculative "what do you want" type offers will be rejected automatically.

 

Squad Players - open to offers on these guys but I'm more than comfortable keeping a hold of them so expect fair value for them.

 

On the Block - I'll be pretty easy to deal with on these I reckon...

 

 

What I'm looking for - unless your pick offers are higher than mine in the first couple of rounds then don't bother - I've got plenty of picks & am actively looking to move them for players. I'm most interested in RB1s & 2s, or WR2-4s. Might take a good veteran TE.

 

 

 

By category;

 

Key

 

Roethlisberger, Ben PIT QB

Kaepernick, Colin SFO QB

Tannehill, Ryan MIA QB

McGahee, Willis DEN RB

Brown, Bryce PHI RB

Wilson, David NYG RB

Marshall, Brandon CHI WR

Johnson, Andre HOU WR

Roberts, Andre ARI WR

Tate, Golden SEA WR

Gronkowski, Rob NEP TE

Bryant, Matt ATL PK

 

Squad

 

Thomas, Daniel MIA RB

Miller, Lamar MIA RB

Dwyer, Jonathan PIT RB

Stewart, Jeremy OAK RB

Best, Jahvid DET RB

Hawkins, Andrew CIN WR

Baldwin, Jon KCC WR

Sanu, Mohamed CIN WR

Clay, Charles MIA TE

Charles, Orson CIN TE

Williams, D.J. GBP TE

Suisham, Shaun PIT PK

Cardinals, Arizona ARI Def

Larry I've watched every Falcons match this season, and without doubt this has been the best start so far. Rise up.
