I still think they matter.  Shannahan really likes the running game... and i think if he had stuck to it last year they would have won a few more games.  But hopefully they can work the QB sneak into their playbook as well.

that would help the redskins A LOT

anyone have any thoughts about Drew Brees's new contract?

I think it is extremely selfish of Brees to string this whole process out so long. He's acting like he NEEDS the extra some ought million dollars on the contract. God forbid u spend that 100 million in one place

yeah the Saints are really getting ripped off here.  I don't think Brees wanted to go to another team and he definitely doesn't need the money.  I swear players are getting more and more self centered.  if he gets paid less then the team would have some cap room for other good players and make the team better.  i don't understand.

Yeah like what Ray Rice and Matt Forte are doing right now. It's not that they want a lot of money. It's that they want the MOST money at their position. Just ridiculous.

I think the NFL has peaked.  i think players are going to start making less money and the sport is going to get a little less popular over the next few years.  I can't really see how it could get any MORE popular.

that shows a lot about drew brees character
selfish and only in it for the money
what else do you guyz think it shows

i agree
we can't keep have\\ing the packers, 9ers,steelers, patriots, saints , etc. on top all the time
thats why i wanted the texans to win so they can change it up for once

Yeah I mean the NFL has been dominated by the same 4-5 teams for the last 7-8 years. I am glad to see the Lions starting to come along and change it up a little. Also, it's the same players doing all the work. Brady Rodgers Brees and the Mannings. I mean the preseason hasn't started yet and I can guarantee that the Pats Saints And Packers will make the playoffs and that the Dolphins won't. Rookies that go undrafted only look to go to the teams like New England Green Bay New Orleans and New York. The only glimmer I hope I see is Peyton goin to the Broncos to hopefully change things up in that division to make it look a little more intimidating you know? Raiders Chargers Broncos and Chiefs?? 4 respectable but nothing special teams. And players like Ray Rice Matt Forte and Brees, the franchise tagged players, are starting to get greedy. They are sitting out from training camp because they won't get the tens of millions of dollars they so crave. We all saw what happened to Chris Johnson after he waited out on signing and I think one of those players will repeat that this year. And players are getting dumb. AP and Dez Bryant have been arrested for thinking that they are invincible and above the law cuz they are million dollar athletes. GET A GRIP. And don't get me started on guys like Dwayne Bowe who have yet to sign their contracts. It makes me sick

o i tottally agree
the nfl needs to invent some way to actually let teams that never make it in to the playoffs make it in
or let someone who is at the bottom of their division actually have a chance to be at the top
i would either say cut the drafts or change up the divsions
like instead of AFC south make it AFC group 4 ( which would be the teams who are always at the bottom of the AFC) or something like that

Or regroup the divisions. Put the Pats and Packers in the same division and the Saints and Giants in another so it can only take 1 or 2 of those powerhouse teams to the playoffs and 1 or 2 slack teams have a better chance
