2014 NFL Week 7
So, hard to believe that the Seahawks traded Percy Harvin to the Jets, today, eh?

if I hadn't seen the headline when I opened up the browser, I would have thought this should have been in the Onion thread.
Re: 2014 NFL Week 7
So I guess bench Harvin this week?
Re: 2014 NFL Week 7
So what's the deal with that guy? You must be some kind of fucked up to get dropped for less than a first rounder with his talent. Can't just be the injuries. Does he fake them? Got to be on that level to make this move.
Re: 2014 NFL Week 7
After he has his first good game, the Jets can deal him to the Raiders for three first-round picks. It may not even take a good game. Just a few fly routes run without serious injury.

Re: 2014 NFL Week 7
Ha! This was a big surprise opening this thread. So rare to see a mid season trade. Jets are so desperate at WR, it isn't much of a gamble.DC47 wrote:After he has his first good game, the Jets can deal him to the Raiders for three first-round picks. It may not even take a good game.

Re: 2014 NFL Week 7
Seattle Times...
One source confirmed a report that Harvin had gotten into an altercation with former Seahawk Golden Tate before the Super Bowl that resulted in Tate getting a black eye.
A source also said Harvin had an altercation with Seattle receiver Doug Baldwin in the week leading up to the final exhibition game this August at Oakland that resulted in Baldwin getting a cut on his chin and each player being excused from practices that week. Harvin, who did not practice for two days before that game, did not make the trip to Oakland for what the team said at the time was “a personal matter.”
One final straw, a league source said, came in Sunday’s 30-23 loss to Dallas when Harvin apparently balked at going back into the game in the fourth quarter.
“The running, the jumping... a celebration of life.”

Soon as I heard about the trade, I just knew there had to be something disciplinary going on. The Seahawks know what they are doing, while clearly the Jets do not. A 4th or 6th rounder is basically saying "just get this guy out of here." And as a bonus for the Jets, Harvin missed most of last season with a hip injury, he has concussion problems and has also missed games due to migraines.
Go Jets!

Re: 2014 NFL Week 7
I think the Seahawks may have been more patient if it wasn't for his contract (and all the guys they need to re-sign). It's a pretty good gamble by the Jets and not worthy of the extreme bashing the trade is getting.
Re: 2014 NFL Week 7
Harvin would no doubt be a Raider if they had the salary cap room. There is always the off season.

Jets don't have much to lose. Late draft picks are a complete crapshoot.

Yeah but he didn't have much choice. His defense was spent and if Seattle retrieves the punt at even their own 35 with a full 2 minutes left, they only have to go 25 yards to set up the winning FG.Johnny Carwash wrote:If Jeff Fisher can't hear you, it's due to the acoustic shadow generated by his massive balls.

Right. It was a ballsy call and he deserves credit, but it's the kind of move the head coach of a 1-4 team should be making all the time.degenerasian wrote:Yeah but he didn't have much choice.

Re: 2014 NFL Week 7
Sorry Brian. I forgot about your recovery.
So yes indeed, the Lions played. And they won in the last minute with a great pass to Fuller, after being down 13 points with 6 minutes left. They won even though Calvin didn't play, and Bush and Pettigrew got hurt. They won even though the street tight end who is playing at their deepest position bounced a ball off his hands and to a Saints defender. They won even though their third kicker bounced a 21 yard field-goal off the uprights, and it went in.
You know, Same Old Lions. Team Of Destiny. Another Step On The Inevitable Path To The Superbowl!
Just making this stuff up to humor the poor suffering invalid. Would someone please fix the internet so it is consistent with this absurd story line?

Re: 2014 NFL Week 7
For the first time in memory, I took the Bills in my survivor pool.
What a finish - three and a half quarters of the worst offence imaginable ends with a drive that was the epitome of clutch. Orton sucks, but that;s two big comebacks in three weeks, something not seen in Buffalo since the days of Doug Flutie. Now, if only the Bills had a running back...
And don;t talk to me about the Browns.

I didn't realize Peyton was going for a record tonight. I am hoping Al and Chris will stop talking about it at some point. It's worse than a Jeter retirement tour.

Really! I know it's because I can't avoid it with what I do, but it feels like it's been unavoidable if you pay attention to the NFL in any capacity.

Re: 2014 NFL Week 7
Sorry to disappoint. I thought about noting the sarcasm, as my living in a cave causes a lack of knowledge of very commonly known things. Fantasy football keeps me following the NFL, and the Jets keep my NFL time focused away from the Jets.Brontoburglar wrote: Given your lack of fervent fandom, that sentence could easily have been read (as I did) that you didn't know and then you were bludgeoned over the head with it.

Re: 2014 NFL Week 7
To add, while everyone on FOX and ESPN has been sucking at the Romoteet for the last 18 hours and anointing the Cowboys as the next dynasty, I'd like to see the team that wants to try and give Indianapolis a game right now. I have to enjoy the ride right now because I assume our defense is going to eventually beam back to their home planet and leave us hanging with that shitty one we've had for 15 years or so. I'll remain content to fly under the radar for now, but this team is very, very good.

5 straight wins, 2 blowouts over divisional teams, another win on the road against a divisional team, and their first shutout since 2008. 2 losses by a total of 10 points. I'd say this team is dangerous.

Re: 2014 NFL Week 7
The local sports radio callers have found a way to spin Peyton's record into just another reason why he's no Brady.

I think that they are both excellent QBs, but I'd like to see how well Peyton would do with his leading receiver at the the "skill" level of Renee, I mean Reche, Caldwell.

Re: 2014 NFL Week 7
So when he wasn't on the Broncos, Emanuel Sanders was basically Reche Caldwell.
