Im sure everyone can guess my reaction to todays transfer news.

Love it! In all honesty of all the teams in the NFL the Brady Bunch are probably the best fit as there's little drama in boring old Foxborough to get embroiled in.

It's Tebow Time - the Messiah has arrived, yadda yadda yadda

Said near the beginning of this saga that I wouldn't be surprised to be in New England - he was never likely to learn much or improve under Sanchez - he's arguably going to have one of the best apprenticeships in football and hopefully will give us some new option plays.

I'm not exactly jumping up and down at this but I see potential for it to have a mutually beneficial outcome

All the crap has started already! "He'll have Bradys job by the 3rd game" my balls!

I doubt he's even likely to be our no.2 QB. He'll be an option/auxiliary player and give us some new option packages.

Por qué . Danny Woodhead all over again (glad to see he's managed to got out off New England). Like TSSF say's, I can see why your lot are doing it.

Taken from the Hearts Finance thread on the main board - Dolphins, Bills AND Jessies all have a higher annual salary expenditure than us.

Just goes to show that spending wisely is better than spending blindly

Yeah, was quite shocked about. I know its spread over a large number but expected it to be higher.

I wouldn't read too much into that to be honest. That's average salary of each player and is really dependant on the amount of players in each team's roster.

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap100...-each-nfl-team

This is a truer reflection of where each team is at in terms of annual expenditure and salary cap. Bills and Patsies over $116m a year. Jets and Dolphins $113m a year - a pretty meagre difference considering the money involved but it'd be wrong to say the Brady Bunch spend less than the rest of the division. In terms of actual cap room, the Jets and Patriots were only a few thousand dollars apart when this was published.

Saw this in the comments - thought it was pretty funny:

"The worse teams in the leauge are the teams with the most cap.They never want to spend money but expect to be contenders , that makes no sense at all. You have to spend to win, unless you're the Patriots then you spend less on players and more on practice tapes from your opponent's team."

That's more in line with what I was expecting though I would have expected Buffalo and Miami to perhaps be the other way around.

If I subscribe to gamepass through NFL.com will I be able to watch MNF or SNF games the next day whenever I want?

Used to be they only blocked the SKY games which was a bummer as they didn't show any of the playoffs and they didn't show the SB. Not sure what the format is for this season is though.

NO, that's the thing/problem with it. I think you could watch the channel 4/5 games on catch up but the sky ones were totally blocked out which ment NO playoffs or even the SB.
To be honest I've no idea what the TV line up for this season is and who's showing what so could be totally different now. Haven't looked at gamepass either so it could be totally different this time round.
You can catch up and watch all the games not on tv, so in effect you could watch every Packers game either live or the next day so long as it wasn't on TV over here. You could in effect watch a different game every night of the week if you wanted.

Is it sky who do the 2 Sunday games and Thursday games then all other regular season games I can watch on catch up. It might be worth it. I wish they would lose the sky exclusivity though.

It's well worth it if you follow one of the smaller/less followed teams as you can watch all their games live. Even if it's only one or two games it's good if you like to watch other games but the Jets were on the TV 7 times a couple of years ago so it became worthless. Course it would still depend on if and who is showing MNF and SNF over here. Catch up is good too as you could watch the Packers game live on the Sunday then watch the Jets game on the Monday, Saints games on the Tuesday, Seahawks on the Wednesday, Eagles on the Thursday and the Dolphins on the Friday .
Still leaves you needing SKY for the playoffs though. I think as I'm sure their deal ran out end of last season .

[James.]

Another thing to keep in mind with game pass is that you get NFL Game Day and Red Zone on a Sunday (I love it) and the NFL Network 24/7 which has some decent programming! I subscribe to Game Pass and NBA League Pass and have to say the NFL are miles ahead with their provision!!

Christ on a bike you read some garbage on nfl.com. Described Tom Brady as 'arguably the greatest qb of all time'. Of all time????

Surely Joe Montana has this sown up
If not id say, Unitas, Namath, Troy Aikman, Steve Young or Rodgers/Favre join Brady among the next best list.

What about the one with David Beckham being an NFL kicker.

He's one of the best, sure, but it's very difficult to pinpoint any given player as the single best of all time.

Stats aren't comparable due to how the game has evolved, there are too many variables (including receiver turnover/quality) to take into account and simple wins don't tell the full story.

I don't care if he's the best of all time or not - much like Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees from this era, it's just a joy to watch these guys plying their trade in the league just now.

Of your list only montana ranks above brady and rodgers has the potential to rank beside him. I'm far from a brady or pats fan but he is without doubt one of the best to play the game.

Until he plays eli in a superbowl obviously.

No Tim Tebow on that list bollah?!
