Also of note from last night, a punt by Shane Lechler hit the Cowboys ginormous video board.

And apparently, it was deliberate.

From PFT:

Lechler admitted after the game that he was aiming for the video board and had a wager with teammates about whether he could hit it with a punt during the game.

If Dwayne Bowe gets cut we have to take a look at him, he is only a few years removed from being a Pro-Bowler 

 

Then again if the BROWNS are cutting him, he must be horrible 

@ProFootballTalk: Mike Pettine says Dwayne Bowe isn't in danger of being cut http://t.co/FLm1opOJka

One major problem...

I know he loves RG3, and he had the final say, but it seems it has gotten to a point of no return if he keeps him.  The whole atmosphere surrounding that organization right now is toxic and they seem to be completely dividing from within over RG3's mere presence there.

There are plenty of situations where a franchise can sit a guy and move on, but this isn't one of them.  Teammates aren't supporting him, fans feel like he isn't getting a fair chance living off of memories of his rookie season, and then factoring in the money he is owed and how much the coaching staff wants to be rid of him...   I just don't see how he makes it out of it this time.  Snyder is up against the wall...

I'd move on from RG3 without question.

I'm just not sure Snyder will.

Isn't it absolutely hilarious how ESPN predicted the opposite of how RG3 and Cam would work out.  Cam was supposed to be the guy completely reliant on his running ability and have a "me-first" attitude with poor leadership qualities. HA!

    • Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.  
    • I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us. 
    • From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
