David Sims is carrying us to Week 9 of the NFL

Thanks. Missed that.

 

Best football quote of the season, Chris Johnson, on the Jet qb mess:

"I don’t even be in the game, so I don’t know."

 

Haha, that's great. How much is he making this year?

 

I think Ryan could work in Carolina.

 

Reminiscent of Micheal Ray Richardson's "The ship be sinkin'."

 

Or Ricky Henderson's "Don't need no press now man"

The NY media brings out the best in people

 

With the even better follow-up:

Reporter: "How low can it sink?"

Richardson: "Sky's the limit."

 

Bucs trade Mark Barron to the Rams, per Schefter.

 

I would bet none of the QBs in this year's draft had first-round grades according to most teams' scouts. And yes, I said that before the draft.

 

Signing Vick was a bad idea because he was perfectly comfortable in the role of backup. He appears to be surprised that he's seeing any action on game days. I think he was ready to just settle in and collect game checks for running the scout team during the week. This whole having to play thing is really screwing up his plan.

 

Oh, the excitement of the NFL trade deadline! Wheee!!!
