Saw online that it said the 49ers have the best odds of wining the SB next year.

No, Seahawks have the best odds of winning according to Vegas, though by a slim margin.

But it doesn't matter, cause the Falcons are going to win it!

Mel Kiper: C-
Sports Illustrated: C
NFL Network: C
CBS Sports: C
Sporting News: D

Should've been an F of course, look at all those horrible bums.

so he can have a couple injury ridden seasons like mcfadden? what did the raiders do to you, you already got them with the tuck game

Cowboys are going to have to restructure DeMarcus Ware, Tony Romo and Miles Austin just to get close to under the cap. Also have to re-sign Dez Bryant and Tyron Smith, makes me wish our GM had any discernible cap management skills.

Here's a list of QB's who had 200 passing yards, 2 or more TD's and completed 70%+ of his passes in a Super Bowl game. Three of the Five have come against the Broncos. Four of the five were teams playing against Peyton Manning or John Elway led team. Russell Wilson is the only one who didn't win Super Bowl MVP.

SB Quarterback Result
XLVII Russell Wilson 43-8
XLIV Drew Brees* 31-17
XXVII Troy Aikman* 52-17
XXIV Joe Montana* 55-10
XXI Phil Simms* 39-10

Luck and Wilson the next Manning Brady

The Browns have hired ex-Redskins OC Kyle Shanahan as offensive coordinator.
It took the Browns awhile to assemble a coaching staff, but Mike Pettine is in place as head coach, Jim O'Neil is the defensive coordinator, and Shanahan will hold the keys to the offense. Per the Cleveland Plain Dealer, it's a three-year contract for Shanahan. The Browns need to find a quarterback, and we'd expect them to do that with the No. 4 overall pick in April's draft. Cleveland also needs a running back, but being that this is Shanahan, he'll probably be able to work wonders with a late-round pick. We absolutely love this hire in regard to Josh Gordon. Andre Johnson, Pierre Garcon, and even Santana Moss dominated targets in Shanahan-run offenses from 2008-2013.

Im so heartbroken that they had to finish the season like that, but im going to move on. Focusing on it won't help. Im not looking forward to the trash talk about the game from friends.

The text messages between Jonathan Martin and Richie Incognito have been released by The Big Lead (in the link, with some NSFW language), and it truly seems like the two were friends even after Martin has left the team. Incognito sends some offensive texts to Martin, but it seems like they're mainly joking and Martin sends plenty of equally offensive texts. It definitely seems like the Dolphins and the media were way too quick to deem Incognito a villain without waiting for the whole story to come out.

It should be interesting to see what happens with Incognito and Martin this offseason. Incognito is a free agent and is definitely good enough to start for several teams. Peter King reported during the regular season that if Incognito was released at least one playoff contender would have been interested in signing him. Martin is harder to predict. The thing is Martin has largely been a bust. He was moved to left tackle this season and was bad enough that the Dolphins eventually traded for Bryant McKinnie and moved Martin back to right tackle. The Colts could have an interest in Martin because they have a need at tackle and their offensive coordinator coached Martin at Stanford and they've got his college teammates Andrew Luck and Coby Fleener, but the way Martin handled this situation could make him toxic.

First off, Richie is a meathead, he's an aggressive, loud in your face kinda guy. I think he did consider Martin a friend. I also think Martin didn't like it, but went along with it to try and fit in. I'm still waiting to see the Well's report before coming to any conclusions, but from what I've seen so far I think the blame has to be on Martin. At some point he either had to let Incognito know he didn't like it. I'd say both players are capable NFL players, and both are somewhat toxic. I think a team bringing Incognito in will probably bring some public backlash. While a team bringing Martin in will raise some eyebrows in the locker room.

This whole time I've been railing on Incognito thinking he was a cruel bully. I surely view Martin in a whole new light now. I sure as hell wouldn't want him on my team.

just skimmed through it, had to laugh at the pic on 10/23/13
I thought they said incognito sent that? now it's the other way around?

[Navster]

Just skimmed through it too, Incognito doesnt seem as bad anymore, Martin just comes off as a major Puss
