Yeah the only Barkley they are getting at 9 (or 10, still TBD by a coin flip) is Charles Barkley.

I dont know if Landry fits from a 'citizen' perspective.

I'm OK with a dude catching 100+ passes for 1000+ yards...I just don't want distracting elements added to the team.  We had TO for years and as great as he was it became such a bore. 
Pierre Garcon is a beast, that is the kind of teammate we want to be aiming for, I think.

He had 112 catches for 987 yards. But it's not really his fault. That's the offense in Miami. It's lame.

He's not a headcase like T.O. He's not perfect, but not someone that will derail a team with distractions.

We'll see what they do.

Anyone else think this is fucked up?

I know it is a business, but damn.  Typically you let the guy proceed up the career ladder.

At least they came out and said it. When the Patriots contacted the Jets in the late 90's to ask if they could interview Bill Belichick (the Jets' defensive coordinator at the time), Bill Parcells (the Jets' head coach) didn't even let Belichick know that the Patriots had made the request.

I think those days are gone....every every seems to get out there nowadays.

Poncier

I thought if the job was a higher position than the one you currently hold they had to let you interview.

The Juggler

Eagles didn’t let Defilipo interview last year. This is probably more common than you think. 

F Me In The Brain

Could certainly be but it doesn't change how I feel about it.

Long over do, congratulations to the Eagles, heck of a team, very well coached, barring a rash of injuries in the years ahead they'll be very good for a while...

The Dez Bryant catch that wasn't considered a catch will now be a catch

That's ok. They shouldn't have been in that game to begin with.

The Cowboys are irrelevant anyway.

It's about time. The process of the catch is the dumbest rule footballchas ever had. On the flip side, they are considering all PI penalties being 15 yard penalties. I don't think I like that.

Same.  PI should be spot of the foul.  Make it 15 yards you're going to see an increase in PI penalties taken.  If I'm a defender and I'm gonne get burned for a TD, damn right I'm tripping or pushing to take the 15 over the 60 yard scoring bomb.

1000% agree.  I don't like it in college.  Smartest play is often to pull a WR to the ground and make sure he does not make the catch.

I don't like a blanket 15yds but I do feel coaches should be able to challenge the PI calls. There are too many flimsy 40yd PI calls that get called.

Pizza Hut = me on the crapper all day.  Plus Papa Johns has the garlic dipping sauce.

Back when I was a bachelor and my buddy and I shared a condo he would order Pizza Hut all of the time.  I often commented that it would be easier to just throw my pieces into the crapper.  Just shortcut the 20 minute process of speeding through my system.

Exactly.  Plus I worked at a Pizza Hut briefly so that drastically changed my opinion of the Hut.  If you do get Pizza Hut always order the hand tossed crust.  Its the only dough that is made fresh.

When it comes to shitty pizza, I go the hut over dominoes and papa any day of the week. 

Ha-yeah I worked at Pizza Hut too. Dominoes also.

Always with the naysaying, Wubbie.

You must be excited that your cowboys might actually produce tehir first good NFL qb.  (Although I say he's a washout.)

The problem with that is there is PI on EVERY SINGLE PASS PLAY.
