Now that the Super Bowl is over and done with, we begin the loooooooong desolate month of February where nothing happens in the NFL.

Let's burn some time people!

That's a good 5...I had forgotten about Foster. Slim pickens on TEs

 

[ATL96Steeler]

I still think Jones bribed him before the game

LOL...I've wondered all these years if the WR ran the wrong route and O'Donnell just kept it to himself...threw right to the guy!

 

[grayghost668]

LBs,,,,,,,,, there have been so many good one

#1 who else could it be,,,,,,,,,,,,LAMBERT

#2 Jack Ham

Greg Lloyd,,,,, James Harrison, Lamar Woodley I could name a dozen more

 

[grayghost668]

LOL...I've wondered all these years if the WR ran the wrong route and O'Donnell just kept it to himself...threw right to the guy!

I find it hard to believe he didn't see the DB,,,,, also why did the Steelers not sign him back ?,,, I think they knew he was bribed and other than make a big stink of it they let him go

 

[grayghost668]

DBs there have been so damned many

BLUNT ,,,, Wagner,,,,Woodson,,,,,, Shell,,,,,,,,,, Lake,,,,,,, Clark,,,,,,,,, Taylor I could go all day
