But at least with Harris and Woodson now, you have at least another year or two where Carroll can develop before he might have to be THE MAN.

Jennings looks like he's going to become a player. Who needs Javon Walker right? He only had 1 good year anyway.

Porky is right, you can't mix and match schemes. Particularly at the center position, which is the anchor of the zone blocking scheme. Fraley comes from a scheme in Philadelphia that is built around the road-grading man blocking scheme. He'd be a poor fit in Green Bay's new scheme. If he had...

Vick will probably get hurt at some point this year, but he probably won't suffer any injuries that serious. In 3 out of the 4 years he's been a starter, he's only missed 1 start, and in one of those years (2004), it was for the purpose of saving him for the playoffs. Yes, Favre was once a...

The idea that the Packers had no veteran options to sign this past off-season is ludicrous. Sure, only Hutchinson was the big name. But that's not what you need for this blocking scheme. If the Packers management was prudent they would have signed some low-key veterans to keep the starting...

I'm looking to see how much the Falcons run defense improves. But truthfully, when measuring yourself against the Packers ground game, it's hard to evaluate. The Falcons RUn D was terrible last week, but if the Packers get 30-40 yards on them, it isn't exactly an accomplishment. The Packers...

Jim Mora coaches "Mora Ball" which is just Marty Ball with Vick. Run the ball, and let the defense win the game for you at the end. It's why the Falcons rarely blow out opponents. I'd be surprised if the Falcons won by more than a touchdown, although we are clearly the much stronger team. We...

Interestingly enough, nobody stepped up to answer my question. I guess they were stumped. :P

Then what is your definition of a QB? I hear people say this so much about Vick, saying he's a RB or whatever. If he's not a QB, then tell me what is and who is a QB? Do you have to complete 55% of your passes. Throw for over 2500 yards? Have a 2:1 TD to INT ratio? Have a passer rating of 80...

Well first off, the stat should be interesting because Favre is known for his 4th quarter comebacks, which should indicate that the Packers are able to win the close games late. That seems to be the opposite case. If you go back through 2002, and his first season as a starter, Vick posted a...

Interesting stat to note: Records in games that the player starts and finishes since 2002 that are determined by 8 points or less (i.e. close games): Michael Vick 13-1 Brett Favre 6-12 Brett Favre is on pace to throw 28 INTs this year, the most by any QB in the past 15 years. Peyton...
