To be blunt, all the people who naysayed Ray Lewis all year can just stop now. They said he was dragging the defense down, then he got hurt and acted like our defense would fall apart without him. I'll admit the D hasn't been as good as years prior, but thats mainly because we lose our defensive coordinator every frakkin year basically.

sad news Lewis will never be replaced.

they better hope Reed sticks around another year. losing both at the same time will be pretty devastating and set the Ravens back. and with Flacco being ever so Flacco, they could easily be 8-8 or 9-7 at best next year.

I could see Lewis becoming linebackers coach or something for the Ravens - if not right away because of his son, but at some point in time. that would be pretty cool and god knows he should be good at that. and, with him being part of the team, keep the intensity and passion alive on the sidelines at least so he's not totally gone.

Id be more inclined to say he joins the Miami Coaching staff if anything so he can coach his son.

Manning Brady AFC title game is what everyone wants to see

I hope Seahawks or Vikings go far but it's a stretch
Seahawks got so screwed in that Super Bowl
Peterson amazing story if he can carry this team even in the playoffs

[Jennifer Lawrence Fan]

How many times are people gonna keep talking about. It happen move on. Crying about it isn't gonna give them a ring.

Jerry Jones is saying big changes are coming in Dallas, the only thing I can think that means is it's time for someone to change his diaper.

I really hope you get a qb quick... I'd hate for you to see what a franchise is REALLY like with a truly bad regular season qb.

Randall Cunningham
Quincy Carter
Drew Henson
Chad Hutchinson
Clint Stoerner
Ryan Leaf
Drew Bledsoe
A few more guys too but that's most of the guys we had between Romo and Aikman.

He should start by firing himself.

Dallas might be in for a long tough stretch. Jerry Jones will probably be like Al Davis, not yielding an inch of power until he croaks.

Couldn't have said it any better, that franchise will never see a new GM as long as he's alive.

I know Jerry Jones gets a lot of blame, but the players he has picked recently hasn't been that bad. Now Al Davis was picking really bad players the Raiders draft picks are a joke.

Those years are becoming hazy and forgotten. I will henceforth defer all bad qb talk to you king of the butt fumbles

WTF u on man Jerry hasent done crap since the Hersall trade which was a no brainer. That one draft set them up for 10 years since all those players left or retired what has Dallas done nothing. Look at some of the crap Jerry has done trying to recreate that trade, need I remind ppl of Roy Williams for a first round draft pick?

i agree that Dallas hasn't made a lot of smart decisions in the draft but when you draft a punter in the first round you are instantly the worst drafting team in the history of football

It's nearly impossible not to respect that guy. He's one of the real good guys in the game.

What a loser RG3 is. He needs to "keep it real" and support "the cause."

[Terjyn]

When I see Jerry Jones say something like "Shaking things up" all I can think is that means he'll trade away every draft pick for the next 4 years to get a bunch of has-beens and never wases, he'll fire the water boy, and he'll decide the team needs to carry 5 Kickers and 2 punters, just in case.
