I think it is the Dallas part of it. They made two paragraphs out of an issue that was completely irrelevent. They could have just made one sentence stating that "only once in NFL history has a team traded for the rights of a suspended player, last year Dallas did it for Pac Man Jones".

Instead they created a whole sub-story to article simply because mentioning Dallas instantly creates more interest even thought there was absolutely nothing to report.

Yeah it's definitely the Cowboys thing.

There is *zero* reason to believe that the Cowboys would trade for Vick, yet they just *had* to find a way to work the Girls into that article.

I wouldn't be surprised if at the end of the next ARod and steroids article I read, they say for no reason that Jerry Jones had no comment on the matter.

In fairness, i don't think it's that big a stretch to mention that Dallas was the only team to ever trade for a suspended player. Bit reachy to suggest they might go for Vick though given that they have, and like, Tony Romo.

On a related note, the Bucs, Lions and Jets (so far) have all expressed their disinterest in Vick.

I think it's funny and wrong at the same time that a man who has shot at people in a strip club, got into multiple incidents with police and got into a fight with a team Body guard can get another shot in the league. While Vick has the Airport incident and the dog fighting (I don't condone the dog fighting at all, Matter of fact its wrong and he should have went to jail for a longer period.) Is probably not going to get reinstated this year and even if he does there will be very few teams looking at him and even fewer looking at him as a QB. Even though imo Vick >>>>>>>> Jones in terms of skill.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
