I saw something about this yesterday... it said they were gonna fly down to Miami Sunday, fly back Sunday night then fly back to Miami again with their teams Monday? What kind of stupid is that?

especially when they can just stay Sunday Night

I am sure they are big boys and can spend the night without their head coaches holding their hands and tucking them in. To have to fly all the way back is idiotic.

Lets not make a big deal about this. They have already had a week and will have another week in Miami to prepare. I think they should go. The fans voted for them and they should at least make an appearance. Most of them won't mind hanging out on the sidelines for 3 hours.

Management needs to get a grip.

As the ole saying goes, one bad apple will spoil the whole bunch.

The direction the NFL is headed in is labeled serious trouble if they don't get their greedy hands out of their own asses.

It's ridiculous, all of it. It's like politicians part II.

Get it straight, and fast, or I'm done with it all together. It has gotten sickening.

Problem solved

Mort: League, Colts resolve Pro Bowl issue

Posted by Mike Florio on January 27, 2010 5:05 PM ET

Well, there's won't be a boycott of the Pro Bowl by the AFC champs, after all.

Instead, the Colts and the league have worked out their differences.

Chris Mortensen of ESPN reports that the Colts will send their Pro Bowlers to Miami via charter jet (reimbursed by the league), and that the players will spend Sunday night in South Florida while they wait for the rest of the team to arrive on Monday. This will allow any injured players to get treatment and to avoid two unnecessary flights between Miami and Indianapolis.

It's unknown whether the Saints will employ a similar approach.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By PanthersGTI · Posted

      Interestingly I think we have kind of of gone through this as an organization. Richardson implemented an FO driven tank. Bad roster, no cash spent, coach uninterested. It may have been for different reasons but I think the results were the same. A team that wasn't going to win many if any games. We ended up with the #1 pick. Cam Newton came in and changed the franchise. It worked, but Cam himself pointed to the losing culture in the locker room needing to be changed. It probably took about 2-3 years for that to happen. Tank worked pretty damn well for us. Cam is one of one. Not another like him, everyone can't deliver on his draft status AND change a culture basically on his own.  So as an exercise here are the last 30 #1 picks. If you tanked and got to pick #1 how many of these guys do you think were worth it? Not just good players, but franchise changers. Guys who will take your culture and shift it so the tank was actually worth it. I would say maybe 9 or 10 guys would be worth a tank, pending the last 5 picks?    2025: Cam Ward (Miami (FL)) - Tennessee Titans 2024: Caleb Williams (USC) – Chicago Bears 2023: Bryce Young (Alabama) – Carolina Panthers 2022: Travon Walker (Georgia) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2021: Trevor Lawrence (Clemson) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2020: Joe Burrow (LSU) – Cincinnati Bengals 2019: Kyler Murray (Oklahoma) – Arizona Cardinals 2018: Baker Mayfield (Oklahoma) – Cleveland Browns 2017: Myles Garrett (Texas A&M) – Cleveland Browns 2016: Jared Goff (California) – Los Angeles Rams 2015: Jameis Winston (Florida State) – Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2014: Jadeveon Clowney (South Carolina) – Houston Texans 2013: Eric Fisher (Central Michigan) – Kansas City Chiefs 2012: Andrew Luck (Stanford) – Indianapolis Colts 2011: Cam Newton (Auburn) – Carolina Panthers 2010: Sam Bradford (Oklahoma) – St. Louis Rams 2009: Matthew Stafford (Georgia) – Detroit Lions 2008: Jake Long (Michigan) – Miami Dolphins 2007: JaMarcus Russell (LSU) – Oakland Raiders 2006: Mario Williams (North Carolina State) – Houston Texans 2005: Alex Smith (Utah) – San Francisco 49ers 2004: Eli Manning (Mississippi) – San Diego Chargers 2003: Carson Palmer (USC) – Cincinnati Bengals 2002: David Carr (Fresno State) – Houston Texans 2001: Michael Vick (Virginia Tech) – Atlanta Falcons 2000: Courtney Brown (Penn State) – Cleveland Browns 1999: Tim Couch (Kentucky) – Cleveland Browns 1998: Peyton Manning (Tennessee) – Indianapolis Colts 1997: Orlando Pace (Ohio State) – St. Louis Rams 1996: Keyshawn Johnson (USC) – New York Jets 1995: Ki-Jana Carter (Penn State) – Cincinnati Bengals
