    10 turnovers for the Jets defence in 2 games.

    That's pretty damn lethal.

    With no contract extension though.

    Oh and this is making me lol like crazy:

    http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap300...-gifted-passer

    "This quarterback Weeden can drive the ball down field," Jones told KRLD-FM, via The Dallas Morning News. "He's a thing of beauty on throwing a football. His passing motion and his arm, frankly, you won't see a more gifted passer, power, accuracy, the entire aspect of it. If he can basically prepare, be the starting quarterback, come in and execute and keep his head right, then I feel good about Weeden."

    They've got Cassell in now. The worst passer and the 4th worst over the last few years. (Can't remember the exact stats, but I read that earlier)

    As Matt Williamson said the other day, Weeden holds the ball too long but that should matter less behind the Dallas line.
    It's just that he can't accurately deliver the ball even with time.

    They're just lucky the division is so shit though that all they need to do is break even until Romo comes back for Tampa.

    It would be nice if we stopped giving away stupid penalties.

    6 for 42 yards already today.

    Are the Saints losing yet?

    EDIT: Yep We have to be competing for the first pick at this point, surely? The defence has been poor for a good few years, and now it seems like the offence has fallen apart too. Brandin Crooks seems to be one of the only positives of the season so far, although a RB duo of Ingram & Spiller seems to have potential too.

    But Rob Ryan is such a gutsy and passionate co-ordinator!

    Luck is having an absolute mare of a season.

    Kapernick with a pick 6 on his first pass of the game though.

    Colin always knows how to make me happy.

    This is amazing.

    Edit: Sorry, the second came on his 4th pass.

    Tyler Lockett's already aced it with a punt return and now a record kickoff return. It's like Percy Harvin but without saving it exclusively for one game.

    Friend of mine sent me this about the Patriot's and their near-inability to fumble since 2006, when a certain QB named Tom Brady proposed a rule change allowing every team to provide its own balls to use on offense, home or away.

    His offensive line is getting more atrocious every year and the Colts management keep wasting all their money on washed up skill position players.

    Luck's good enough to turn Donte Moncrief and T.Y. Hilton into Pro Bowl players, he doesn't need dickheads like Frank Gore and Andre Johnson. Give him an offensive line and let him get on with it.

    Colts have always been fucking stupid about not drafting or signing linemen though. They're basically starstruck wankers who've been fortunate enough to have two Hall of Fame quarterbacks so nobody notices they haven't had a decent draft since the mid 90s.

    As a Colts fan I've not really got much time for the Cheatriots, but that was pretty thoroughly debunked:

    Can someone explain why George Osborne is still talking up the idea of a London franchise?

    It would have to host all its games in a block since the travelling would be ridiculous, there is no London stadium that would be available for such a block (or perhaps even at all), it would mean removing an existing team from America where NFL is more than a passing fad... the £££ can't even be much on top of the existing $$$. Plus we would have to give them special tax breaks and all sorts of things.

    So what's going on? Am I missing something?

    The travelling wouldn't be horrendous. There's only 8 games a year away and it'll be a while before they can make it to the play-offs. I imagine they'll get into something like the NFC East, probably replacing the Redskins. It would also give them a way to get European sponsors into the NFL. Also in the NFL a team can fuck off somewhere else and still be the same team. Location doesn't mean all too much.

    They were touting a Mexico game not long back too, so expect more stuff like this to be explored.

    It would be, the London team would finish 8-8 every year (all home wins and away losses).

    It's not viable until some sort of super transport is made, right now it's more of a pipe dream to keep the Brits hanging on in there and to maximise profit during the London games.

    Also you'd get so many draft holdouts, I doubt some dickhead is going to want to pitch up from Florida to go to London.

    The traveling logistics are the least important factor in this, as Mahow says the draft hold outs and players not wanting to be based in London for even half of a season are sticking issues. That and the novelty of the UK fans going to see one of three games as an NFL fan would wear off quickly when fans had to cheer for the London Monarchs (arf) or the visiting team. The NFL have fucked about with LA for long enough, they're not going to move a team from the US to the UK to the huge detriment of the overall NFL brand, then you're looking at expansion teams which are even less likely.

    Be good for Jimmy to see his Arizona Cardinals in the flesh if it happened though.

    The New York Jets shipped their own toilet paper to London for their NFL clash at Wembley, because they had been warned British paper was "very thin."

    I think the London idea is more of an expansion thing than a re-location thing. Plus it's nice leverage to needle recalcitrant states and cities when the time comes to threaten to move their team if they don't pay for a new stadium.
