I have been contemplating the logistics of it for quite a while. 1 there will be a training facility in London for visiting teams and another one here for the London team. 2 Teams playing there would fly in right after their last game so they would be in London be Monday morning the latest and have a week to prep for the game. 3 I would expect the team that played them to get a bye the next week like they do now with teams that play there. 4 I would expect something like them getting a 4 game stand then a 4 game road trip and so forth for the season. 5 They would only play 1 PM EST games making it 6 pm there. The owners want this. They are going to make a fortune doing it. As soon as a team is in Europe they can negotiate a bunch of new TV deals over there. I would guess $150 mil at the min to start. They also want to steal talent from over there so they need to get them up to speed with the game. Margus Hunt is only the start of the talent from over seas that they want to get. Soon that talent can be turned into various Yao Mings again driving revenues.

London as I have read did pretty well in attendance. Same with one of the German teams. They are moving a team there. It has been decided the question is when.

They can get past logistics for an extra maybe $150 mil a yr.

A little strange seeing Atl on there. I didn't think they had issues selling seats. i would have thought Stl. The Jags will host there for I think 3 more seasons. Kahn has a 17000 member fan club in London for them now. They are moviong there.

Not seeing a WR at all. They might be 5 deep with what is on the roster now next yr. I would go TE or OL in the 1st.

I have never thought that the wonderlick was good for that. Most of it is math questions. Knowing most of these guys are in college to get to the pros there are few rocket scientists in there. Understanding the playbook has little to do with the questions they ask. http://www.proprofs.com/quiz-school/story.php?title=wonderlic-sample-quiz

Wasn't Vince Young like a 4 or something?

Like I was saying with Clark. Patience was needed. He was brought in late and had to work into shape and get a little teamwork goind with Joe.

There are lots of guys who have some level of success as OC's or DC's and need to go anyway.

I know they use the field for everything under the sun but they aren't using it like crazy yet. It shouldn't be that bad yet. I get the homefield advantage since they are used to it and don't care.

If they can't go on a run then absolutely do not bring him back. I still don't think he will be ready this yr anyway.

Not quite the same thing.

At least he is willing to do anything to win. What about the Bounty that Suggs mentioned on Rapelesburger a few yrs ago. Oh yeah he walked that one back when someone aksed. I have said I didn't think going for it was a good idea. I am just not dismissive of someone with credential like Fouts.

Did anyone notics how the field came up in clumps all sunday? someone caught a pass and slid on his knees out of bounds and the grass and dirt went flying.

Fouts is a HOF QB. It was a poor call. Also if you are going to onside it there is a better strategy than to have your kicker go get it.

Ask Steve.

He thought he was Sean Payton.

If you want to get Joe killed do that.

There is no way they tag Oher. They are not paying the average of teh top 10 OT's. Friend of Harbs. he will not be fired.
