How much guaranteed money does Curry have left on his contract?

Ah the Seahawks thread, forgot about that. I've never once gone in there so I forget about it, I just see what I read in here. And ya I always heard Curry was a character guy on top of the physical intangibles, another reason why I'm so surprised he hasn't worked out. On paper he's everything you'd want in an OLB.

Wasn't he a weakside guy in college? I notice Seattle usually plays him at strongside when I watch them, I think he fits the weakside better where he can have more freedom and put some pressure on the QB.

That's exactly why I hated them growing up. Back in the mid-90's:

Looks like the real Rex Grossman is back.

Hockey · 09-26-2011, 08:36 PM

This game has been a snoozed so far.

Less run game, more Witten please. Although the Skins are defending him well so far.

Grossman being Grossman.

The more football I watch this season the more I'm convinced the Lions have one of the top 5 coaches in football.

9 FG game full of sloppy play.

Romo makes one great 3 and 21 play to get Bryant into the open, then hitting him, and that's the game.

Titans defence wasn't the same after he left.

I don't think we'll hear the whining this year when the Lions host the early game on US Thanksgiving this year.

I have NEVER seen an offence play that poorly and still win, good lord that was something. I thought the Cowboys were dead in the water when it was 3rd & 21, can't believe Romo got that pass to Bryant. Hate the Cowboys and Romo, but full marks to him on a gutsy effort. Man he must've been frustrated as hell with his team, how could you not be?

Weird game... obviously glad they got the win but that was just way ugly.

I'll take it. Three-way tie for first place in the NFC East. The media anointed 2011 Super Bowl Champions are in last

Didn't realize the Packers were in the NFC East...

The New York Post after Vick complained the referees do not protect him enough from late hits had these cover.

I have joined in the campaign of most Dolphins fans. Suck for Luck!

So than you were okay with Oiler fans and the Fall for Hall?

I also think the Chiefs have a big leg up on the Dolphins in that race, with the injuries they have. The thought of Luck coming into the league with players like a healthy Charles, Moeaki, Bowe to work with on offence...ah...maybe they could win a playoff game again in my life.

As a Dolphins fan that's total garbage. It's 3 games into the season.

The funny part is QB play hasn't even been the issue.

The Suck for Luck campaign is interesting. I could be wrong, but it seems that the cant miss first overall pick at this time of the season. Usually isn't the player who will go first overall come April. However, if the Chiefs season continues in it current course, I will have to follow NCAA football more closely.

The NFL sunday ticket needs to come out with a reduced single team package.

But then how are they supposed to gouge you??

Until about 3 years ago you were able to just buy single games, that's what I used to do with the Saints from like 02-05. Was $3.99/game, it was great. You could tell NFL popularity exploded after that because by 06 it was up to $10.99/game, so I just bought Sunday Ticket instead.
