Well the best of their QB lot is an undrafted rookie. Tebow might be a better choice.

They also have 8 defensive linemen currently on the roster which is two-three more than they were expected to run. That could be where the cuts come from along with one of the weaker qb backups.

Just a thought...

I would keep him ... 16 games is a long season ... the fans are a bit picky in New England though. Maybe they will stay silent ...

Someone will pick him up if not right away then during the regular season after someone gets hurt. Heaven forbid it should be the Denver Broncos or the NY Jets

I wish LA had a team ... they could go all the way with a guy like Tebow.

I know this is about the NFL, but that quarterback for Texas A&M number 2 sure looked good today. Number one draft pick if he stays healthy. I even think he's a junior no less.

He created quite a fuss on ESPN today with his "drama."

They compared him to the Kardashians.

That cutdown had to happen today by 6 pm.

D-Day is this Thursday for regular season. Any thoughts on the preseason?

There were no major injuries were there?

Seahawks looked sharp.

I thought this was crazy when I read it about NFL players going broke after they leave football!

...and so it begins. AVG draws first blood.

Denver sure is kicking some Raven butt tonight.

CaptainHaplo · 09-05-13, 10:34 PM

All I can say is Peyton Manning is now on my BFP list....

Best Fantasy Pick of the week if this keeps up!

eddie · 09-05-13, 11:21 PM

A couple more TD passes by Manning and he will set an NFL record of most TD passes in one game!

August · 09-05-13, 11:28 PM

Showboating can come with a price, right number 59?

CaptainHaplo · 09-05-13, 11:40 PM

It does - but 7 touchdown passes in one game. That ties the NFL record - anyone think that he will go for 8?

eddie · 09-06-13, 01:04 AM

Nope, he finished with 7. Heck of a job by Manning!

AVGWarhawk · 09-06-13, 08:07 AM

Spanked! Ravens looked good in the first half. Glad I went to bed after that. Sheesh....

Denver is a great team and only better this year with the addition of Welker. I like Manning. He is a Buick guy.

Also a great QB.

Last year the Ravens beat them in sudden death OT. It was a tough game and a struggle to the end. With that in mind, it is not mystery why Denver put 49 on the board last night.

Going to be a nail biter of a season!

If I'm the Ravens owner, first thing I do is find the Orioles owner, and punch him dead in the face for making me open on the road.
