Around the NFL Week 5

And remember, Jimmy Graham is not a top 100 player according to the other players voting in the nfls top 100.

As far as Manning and Dallas, yes, this seems like a game where Dallas pulls off the big upset. Like I mentioned earlier, Dallas has played Manning great the past 2 times they've played them. I don't think this is going to be a blowout, as much as I hope Denver blows them out.

What joke that was. Graham has been a stud for a few years now.

Down here in Saints-land, if Brees is Breesus then Graham is Jimmy the Baptist. He's extremely popular and for good reason.

Report: Greg Schiano refers to pre-Schiano Bucs as 'laughingstock' - CBSSports.com

Hilarious.

Good win by the Browns tonight, even though they lost Hoyer.

Also, the Panthers are trading Jon Beason(LB) to the Giants.

Yeah, especially when they resemble nothing like the dominant abundance of every Indian woman. I guess they a hot one every billion or so.

This sucks. I don't like hearing about the giants trying to get better. Ive really gotten used to the giants failing at finding a LB.

Not sure they are bettering themselves. Beason was benched in Carolina and was no longer the starter. Those injuries have had a big time impact on his play.

JoeRedskin · 10-03-2013, 01:36 PM

As to the Freeman thing, John Clayton always struck me as an "up and up guy". I have to believe he reported it thinking he was getting substantive news from a reliable source about possible reasons for Freeman's benching (As in, "Okay JC, here's the inside scoop - you didn't hear it from me but -- the real reason Freeman's on the sidelines is related to the same reasons he has been in the NFL's drug testing program for the last year. I've seen him submitting to the testing.").

It seems to me Clayton was likely played a little in this matter. Makes me wonder if he may be a little upset about that.

Wait, I think I missed something. What happened with Clayton?

JoeRedskin · 10-03-2013, 01:42 PM

Wasn't it Clayton who broke the story on Freeman's drug testing? If not, then just ignore my previous post.

SmootSmack · 10-03-2013, 01:48 PM

Oh I thought it was Mortensen, actually

JoeRedskin · 10-03-2013, 01:50 PM

Sorry, it was Mortensen not Clayton. Again, though, Mortensen's got a pretty solid rep too. Hard to see him just playing the rumour monger.

Well freeman got his release

GTripp0012 · 10-03-2013, 02:45 PM

The most significant thing here is that the Bucs are a really, really good defensive team with a lot of offensive skill talent that bungled its quarterback situation like amateurs. As poor as Freeman played as weak a prospect as Glennon is, it's hard to argue that even a maligned coach like Rex Ryan would have this team sitting at 2-2 and in the mix.

Just a really poor job of coaching and preparing the players to play.

Going, going, gone.
