Thursday Night Football: Open Thread (Eagles v. Seahawks)

You might look at this game and think, "Why would I care about what happens between two mediocre NFC teams? It doesn't affect the Texans at all." As I can read minds, I would respond to your thought as follows:

1. It's football, which is inherently glorious and should be watched whenever possible.
2. I desperately need Marshawn Lynch and Brent Celek to have big games tonight. There are five (5) teams competing for the three (3) remaining playoff spots in my fantasy league, and I can't afford a no-show by Lynch and Celek. As I know you care about my fantasy squad just as much as I do, that gives you yet another reason to pay attention tonight.

Besides, don't you want to be able to contribute to this open thread? Sure you do! Onward in the Comments!

miami released sage

And there is a strong possibility the colts could cut peyton… wow

After all the fivehead has done for that franchise, they don’t just unceremoniously dump him. He’s stll a fan favorite, for jeebus sake.

He did say "could"

There’s been a lot of speculation that he cannot come back from this injury. We found out today that he is making it into the next stage of rehab, which looks promising for him. But he’s due a lot of money next year and the Colts will need to see that he can throw.

I think what will happen is he will have some kind of compromise with them, where he works out for them before he is due his money in the offseason, instead of coming back this year.

There is a very real possibility he could end up being cut though. Despite the fits he’s given us Texans fans, I would truly hate to see that happen.

Nfl.com has a story about Manning on the front page

At the end they mention the team needing to see him play before deciding whether to pay his $28 million roster bonus before next season.

on a mobile

Profootballtalk.com he is due 35 mil in Feb if he is not ready by then tough decision for Indy good probability he could be released

by TexansForLife on Dec 1, 2011 7:12 PM CST via mobile up reply actions  

He has stated in the past

that he can’t envision playing football(paraphrased) in anything other than a Colts uniform. So I’m guessing that he restructures if he thinks he can play again, or they figure out a way for him to retire gracefully. I just can’t see a cut. I admit it’s possible, I just can’t see it.

Maybe

but I think Sage has enough in him to win a playoff game or two with this team. I don’t feel the same way about Delhomme and I haven’t seen enough from Yates yet (but I doubt he could lead us to a playoff victory). Sage seems like a good option.

I hope they get him, if his health permits. I just meant that there would be a lot of non-starters vying for jobs.

Peyton wanted to take less than Brady and Peyton refused.

he’s not going to be a burden on the team. He retires or comes back, maybe pushing back money in his deal.

2.) Excuse to drink beer and eat wings.

Even now, you can see what made him so special in college. He created time, he has an awesome pump fake, and he could get the ball downfield. I said from the very beginning that he would not be a good pro QB. He can’t read defenses at all, and his mechanics are awful. He could get away with that with his athleticism in college, but not in the pros.

Plus, I saw every snap he played in college, a little over half live.

this just in

I have more confidence in Yates than I ever did in Leinart, just saying.

Yeah, saw that tonight as well

It blew my mind to hear them all in agreement. Although I didn’t like hearing them say we should go after McNabb earlier in that segment.

My thoughts are like Brian Cushing on the field: Everywhere.

it's just weird

I have never seen the national media speek highly of the texans. Collin Cowherd excluded (he’s just a crygirl suckup), the media has been pretty good to houston since the midway point of the season.

btw

Cowherd has picked us to lose in, I think, every game this season.

T.j. Yates can throw

the short to intermediate pass. How often have we thrown a bomb down the field? Why we would we do it all of a sudden? We usually are up a score on teams anyways. (This season anyways). Unless we get down early against the Dirty Birds I’m confident we stick it out by the tar of T.J.’s heel.
