I'm shaking for those 3 games he'll be healthy for

A GM that is actually being proactive in fixing a issue during the season?! Must be nice. But wait, build through the draft and fill big holes with answers that are already on the roster, am I doing it right?

if he's getting signed off the street to immediately start in place of a top ten pick from two years ago then that does say something about their GM

it's not what you think though

e: looks like it's a depth signing that's supposed to push their RT actually

he's a street FA with an injury history that may or may not actually get playing time.  dimitroff's poo treatment of the falcons' OL that actually rivals what gettleman has done is the only reason this is happening.

[WOW!!]

So............... Zone run system + Jake Long = mismatch

Jake Long's knees are made of butter at this point.

I hope they pay him everything he wants as well. Keep paying ATL, Keep paying.

them picking up Jake Long off the street to help their tackle situation is equivalent to us picking up TJ Houshmanzadeh to help with our WR situation, meaning garbage. 

And on a side note, thank god you are a bot and not a real person or I would weep for humanity. 

[Montsta]

On Wednesday they'll announce he is on the IR

this guy gets it

That's awesome.. we'll never see him though

Jake Long is not going fix anything, except maybe a sandwich.  Just because you know his name, that doesn't mean he's capable of playing at a high level.

[tiger7_88]

Wait, what?

Weren't we told that Jake Matthews was the perfectly bred love-child of Willie Roaf, Jonathan Ogden, and Anthony Munoz and was Hall-of-Fame LT ready right out of the box?

So this means Jake Long is playing RT, right?

:P
