"Atogwe, he wanted to play and I said, ‘I can see that you’re not going full speed’." Coach Mike Shanahan said. "I had to force the guy to actually stay out, but he knew it was in his best interest." But on Sunday, Atogwe finally was able to take the field without serious hindrances. "I felt great. For the first time all season, I felt as close to 100 percent as possible, so I praise God and thank Jesus for healing me," said Atogwe.

i'm still not sold on thursday night games

it just seems the level of play isn’t as good given the limited amount of preparation time…although i still love having the thanksgiving games, this is when i miss john madden the most, his annual turducken analysis on the telestrator…mmmm…turducken…..

As for me, all I know is that I know nothing.

Goodell obviously is an idiot.

The NFL has TRADITIONALLY played a couple games not on Sunday, Monday, or Thursday…. the final week of the season there is traditionally at least one, and normally two, Saturday games. It used to be a tradition that the Redskins would host one of those (the way the Cowboys and Lions host a Thanksgiving game).

I want that tradition BACK.

Christmas Eve games

I know this year, because xmas falls on a sunday, most of the games will be played on saturday except for the sunday night game

As for me, all I know is that I know nothing.

not sure how its irrelevant considering you wanted saturday games, but nonetheless, the week before that there’s a saturday night game as well (cowboys vs. bucs), so its not as if this “tradition” is gone

doesn't seem like that kind of guy.

He doesn’t seem like any kind of guy to me, when he talks to kelli he doesn’t say much at all. Which isn’t a bad thing, I hated how ST21 acted his first couple years here and then he got quiet and good. I guess 21 told him to keep his mouth shut and his nose clean.

on the turkey thing or keep his mouth shut thing?

Personally I didn’t think Laron was a give back to the community kind of guy. He didn’t come from here he has no roots here, I see him as a player who comes works out plays games works out and gets paid. I don’t see much of a personality of him other than he likes flexing. I am very excited to see him contribute to this community in such a way.

About him being quite…ST was blasted for all his off the field antics his first couple years here with the dui and the gun and so on he learned that the media isn’t something you mess with. Being a safety i’m 100% sure they spent a lot of time together and at some point I’m betting taylor told him it was best to stay quite. Yes that is an assumption but I wouldn’t say it was an un educated one at that.

We have

Grossman, who sucks a little less than Beck. Well, Orton sucks a little less than Grossman, s why bother? Unless we just plan on continuing up that tree until we end up with the least sucky QB we can.
No, for all the negative I have to say about Grossman, I will say he seems to have a good attitude. Orton seems like a grade A douche. Sorry, I just can’t stomach douchiness from a teetering around average quarterback.

Where do they teach you to talk like this? In some Panama City "Sailor wanna hump-hump" bar, or is it getaway day and your last shot at his whiskey? Sell crazy someplace else, we're all stocked up here.

dont bother with orton...we are drafting a QB. our offense is too quirky this late in the season

plus, he knows chicago and they have a good team and a need

which is why dallas should sign him lol

This is why we need as many draft picks as possible

these days, I am just happy when I hear they dont have to change positions moving from college to our team! go helu and hankerson!!!

hank was looking solid and so was jenkins. Riley is being a beast.And Niles Paul just has the cutest hands

but most of those are speculation because they’re rookies

ha on niles. they are rookies and the talent they are competing with or going against on the team is light. but they have every opportunity to be special and I hope they do! this team is so thin, we really should get at least three starters out of the draft for the next couple of years. to do less really points identifies a problem.
