If vick didn't get in trouble with the whole dog fighting scenario... we might be having a conversation of all-time list of players who changed the game.

8 Man League?? Theres no room to breathe in there!!!

Looks pretty solid, but for a 8 man league id have to go with an 8.

GB Defense actually should be a pretty decent option.

If Sanchez was on the lions, he would be worse than Stafford. If Stafford was on the Jets, he would be better than Sanchez.CleanPlayer

Well said.

Let the games begin!

I might be biased cuz I'm from Detroit but I still think Stafford is a better QB. Sanchez had the best running game in the league, one of the best O-Lines, and the best Defense. They made they're playoff push despite Sanchez, not because of him. With all those tools around him, he still had major rookie-struggles.

Stafford had a mediocre O-line, no running game, only 1 good receiver, and the worst Defense in history so he played from behind all year so the opposing D knew he'd be passing.

That's my piece, who's better?

Definately gotta go with Stafford.

And just from an avid football fan on the outside looking in... to be honest with you the Lions have improved a lot. A lot of people don't like talking about them for obvious reasons... but ill tell ya. They got some offensive weapons.

The Lions have Stafford, whom I wouldn't even compare Sanchez to, Sanchez struggled having a lot of really good things in place for him. Staffords future is bright.

Lions just added Nate Burelson, who I think will definately help out Megatron, and also don't sleep on Bryant Johnson... He's being put back in the slot, which is where he belongs, not a #2.

Also just picked up Jahvid Best in the draft along side Kevin Smith. I think theres alot of young talent that can improve this team out there... Thats my two cents.

People say it's no big deal. Yea, fights happen all the time in practice, but your history makes you who you are. If he gets like this in practice, what is he gonna do in a real game when the situation is actually worse and opposing teams are killing ya. Of course Fisher will downplay it, he has to or else it gets out of hand... but you know he's getting talked to behind closed doors...

Said perfectly.

Already got my point across so.

See the problem here is your inaccurate now.

Washington has argueable made some serious moves to have a revamped offensive line... leaving only one starter from the previous season (in other words, the only guy whom didnt go down with injuries in casey rabach), we spent the number 1 overall pick in Trent Williams OT. We traded the Super Bowl champions NO Saints for OT Jamaal Brown. We have also aquired a starting Guard from minnesota in Artis Hicks. So thats three new lineman that you can build a foundation on right there.

Im liking the scenery in washington.

HTTR!

Hey Flowers, long time no talk... guess its that time of year again :).

I hate to be so negative, but since I go to school in the south I just recently went to the Senior Bowl for the first time. One of the biggest stories at the senior bowl besides Tim Tebow was Blounts future.

Now at this time I didn't really pay much attention to college football at all... but from almost everyone I talked to that day was SO negative in their initial reactions about this guy and I couldn't really understand until I heard about his background. He definately had all the tools you need to become something in the NFL, but a common comparison to his college in actions were made as if he was "hitting below the belt". And it was such a huge deal and I saw the video, pretty much sucker punched some guy on the other team.

And then he does it again? That was my rant.

And to stay accurate, if you notice by the end of the run when he was getting gang tackled, his helmet eventually fell off... in which led to the point of people not attacking him any further due to his head being unprotected.

Which leds me further to believe that we should all be thankful this guy doesn't play defense, in which would lead to him attacking defensless and/or unprotected players.

For all whom don't know, new NFL rules state that once a player loses his helmet, the play is over. This is to coincide with taking a move on player health & safety.

You should watch NFL Networks specials when they actually hook up wires to these players during the games... It is a commonality for other players to talk trash to invoke someone on the other team into doing something stupid, in essence having yardage taken away. IF this was on the field, theres only one person the flag would be called on for Unsportsmanlike Conduct, and thats Blounte... not the defense. And who does it hurt? Everyone on offense.

The last thing he needs to be called is a role-model. This man is anything but, and has no business touching another player, especially on your own team, after the play is over. This is not something that is "ok" for kids to look at and say "well if he can do it maybe I can too". This is what got him suspended in college, and will leave him UNEMPLOYED in the NFL.

If he can't keep his hands to himself he needs to go into MMA and really get his *** kicked.

Im sorry, I really don't mean to be krass... but this guys absolute garbage.

How is it possible, that one of the MAIN REASONS why you WEREN'T DRAFTED was because of the fact that you cannot control yourself and you actually punch another player... that you are STUPID ENOUGH to actually do it again in the NFL?!?

This guys absolute garbarge. Hits his own teammate during a practice?!?!?

Ok you know what, rough-housing does occur in the NFL I understand how it can get started, but holding a background history of lowering yourself down to a level when you have already hit a player as the play is over and repeat that in the pros? This guy is SCUM.

For some reason, I can't access videos on NFL past watching commercials so I posted a youtube that I could find here. Feel free to enlighten your thoughts.
