Not sure Crusader. This is a big question

Speaking of (ex)Falcons, Matt Ryan is back at it. This time with the Colts against the Vikings.

Nope. Dead cap is the accounting for monies already spent in terms of bonuses and such. It is already on the team's books and cannot be transferred. Team can, however, negotiate the future base pay, but that already goes with the player to the new team. The trading team can, and has, agreed to cover part of that pay to move the player. That's not what you were hoping. I believe that's what you were thinking about in that Browns deal. Was it with the Texans, perhaps? It was a QB.

HAPPY that we got the win. NOT HAPPY about how close we came to losing.

Was able to listen to most of the Saints game. Glad we held on.

We won and the rest of the NFC South lost. Another day in paradise LOL.

Watched that second half of CIN vs TB and there were some pretty prominent "Who Dey" chants going in Tampa. Warms my heart!

Anybody else observe Brady's body language? Start paying attention! You can actually "SEE" who's going to win!! Same thing with the Colts at Vikings, the Colts captain looked "BEATEN" during the Overtime Coin Toss, whilst the Viking Captain was lose, laughing and smiling. Welcome to the NFL (Noteal Football League)

Brady had the same deflated body language in the last game against the Saints but the Saints don't seem to have the guts to smell blood in the water and go for the kill.

Glad we won. Even in a bad year, sweeping Atlanta is a highlight.

Should not have been close. But it was and we're still a bad team.

Pray that Eagles beat Cowboys and rest starters in week 17. But they won't since a higher draft pick is on the line.

Goose is cooked.

I'm glad Juwan Johnson is a RFA this off season.

-The Bucs, Falcons and Panthers are going to be bad again next year. With luck on health and improvement at DT, S and backup RB, the Saints could dominate.
