unrelated question..does anyone expect that Manning will ask for a guaranteed contract, or will any team give him one?

All these games come down to 2-3 plays. I was hoarse for a week on the blown pass interference calls SF got away with on Nicks and Manningham. They were getting mugged. Oh, and that phantom holding call that killed another drive. Brutal. Turned out the ball literally bounced our way but SF will be a lot closer next year then NYG. We just got hot at the right time. sF has got a monster D. You got a nice window now.

“My opinion is that RG3 ain’t all that and giving up all those high draft picks just dumb.”

I think his mechanics remind me a lot of a past Redskin QB,

NFL rules now better protect quarterbacks

Ya think? This is how the NFL thinks of all QBs:

I’d almost agree, but after what happened to the Chicago Bears after Jay Cutler was lost for the season and what happened to the poor Houston Texans when they ended up with a third-string quarterback, small wonder why there is now calls for more protection for the quarterback, even though I do think the suggestion from John Madden is a bit of overkill.

I guess we are even then, because this play had me fuming.

Apparently Peyton didn’t want to do DC.

Makes sense since that would mean playing vs his bro often.

RG3 was a sensation at the combine, but physics dictates that any NFL qb who does a lot of running is going to be maimed often.

Your post should go down in FR history for being so well written, big words used properly, but then should odd, nonsensical errors in it. It’s like a 5 year old ambushed every ten words of a WSJ’ editor’s post. Nice work.

Aside from the negative of seeing his brother twice/year, I believe at this point in his career he wants an OL that would block against the Dee lines of the ‘Boys and the G-men. The ‘Skins are not that bunch, yet...
