    Cam Newton signs with Carolina

    "Mac Jones didn't beat me out." Not true.

    Cam Newton signs with Carolina

    Cam's spin is that last year he was given a broken down 20 year old Civic firing on 3 cylinders, and Mac is being a Porsche that Cam could take to 5-0; but that would interfere with the media and higher-ups who want a QB who doesn't look like Cam--and 30 NFL teams don't ask the QB to read...

    Packers: Rodgers’ Chances of Returning to GB in Jeopardy!

    We're all a bit astonished Tom is winning rings seven years after Jimmy G was drafted to replace him, but Bill handled the evolving situation just as poorly as the Packers.

    Pats QB Options

    Maiocco based his proposal on the Alex Smith trade when he was supplanted by Mahomes, a third round player and a third round pick--ironically, the player was Kendall Fuller, who as much as anybody ruined Jimmy's life with an INT and near-INT PBU in the 4thQ of SB54.

    Pats QB Options

    Jimmy has at least two risks: getting cut in August, with no money, no job; or inevitably getting benched in November when the 49ers have lost a couple of tough NFC West games, and suffering mere reputational damage. Clearly he's better off getting a fresh start now. The Pats trained him...

    So Otto, any advice for Jimmy?

    Pats QB Options

    At any point SF can cut Jimmy and dump his salary--BB may wait for this, since he won't trade and pay $25 M--until September?

    Pats QB Options

    Three first-round picks represent a resounding vote of no confidence, which Jimmy can accept or not.

    Pats QB Options

    Fascinating: SF convinces Kawakami they have zero interest in letting Jimmy go, and Jimmy's fine with it; Patriots put out they have zero interest in getting him, and they're fine with Cam--nobody believes either story. Steve Wyche talked with John Lynch in Utah and Lynch told him he's taking...

    Pats QB Options

    Yee is shopping Jimmy, who has a no-trade clause; I don't think BB wants Jimmy in Chicago. Not really so expensive since 49ers intend the 1sts to be #31--really seconds.

    Niners Trade for #3 Pick

    If I'm Jimmy, I want out--I don't want to mentor.

    Pats Re-sign James White for Another Year

    As a TB12 maven and newly minted Tampa fan, I confess to being extremely dismayed by James' decision. There is no Buc who can reliably catch a screen or figure out where to go with it, to Tom's obvious distress. I cannot fathom this.

    Pats Re-sign James White for Another Year

    A little tangential, but the first big receiving back I remember was Roger Craig, who had 1000 receiving yards in 1985 when BB and Parcells beat the 49ers and Parcells chortled, "How do you like that West Coast offense now?!"
