Chiefs and Gonzalez agree in Principle to a Five-Year Contract Extension

Il va finir sa carrière chez les Chiefs. C'est bien, mais ça ne va pas dispenser KC de chercher d'autres cibles. Et même un QB, à court terme. En fait, va falloir complètement restructurer le jeu de passe. Les 2 QB sont "très vétérans", Eddie Kennison aussi (33 ans). Gonzalez est aussi trentenaire, et est le principal receveur de l'équipe (en nombre de réceptions) faute de mieux.
Larry Johnson ne pourra pas tout faire.

Exactement Bus, la grosse priorité sera de trouver un vrai franchise QB pour l'avenir et rajeunir le corps des receveurs... Sans oublier le back filed défensif. Bref va avoir du boulot pour les Chiefs à l'intersaison !

en théorie vous l'avez avec brodie Croyle

Oui mais je préférerai voir un Jamarcus Russell chez nous mais bon c'est impossible avec notre tour de draft

Citation :

Croyle is a principal figure as the Chiefs begin to consider their future at quarterback, both in the short and long terms. One veteran, starter Trent Green, played poorly this season. The other, Damon Huard, is scheduled to be a free agent.
There won’t be room for both Green and Huard on the 2007 Chiefs. No matter what the Chiefs decide, Croyle looms as either a starter or, more likely, the top backup who would get a quick promotion if the regular falters.

Edwards this week wouldn’t be dragged into a discussion about the Chiefs’ quarterback situation. But he is clearly enamored by Croyle, who he compares with Chad Pennington, his former quarterback with the Jets.

Croyle, picked by the Chiefs in the third round from Alabama, was one of 11 quarterbacks drafted last year.

The Chiefs believe Croyle, an accurate passer with a strong arm, can be that kind of player as soon as next season.

Croyle missed much of training camp and the preseason because of a shoulder injury. He played in only one game, the final minutes of the blowout loss in Pittsburgh, and looked overmatched.

Two of Croyle’s seven passes were intercepted and one was returned for a touchdown. If Croyle was indeed overmatched, the Chiefs are counting on that to change quickly.

Durability is a major question for Croyle. He is small (listed by the Chiefs at 6 feet 2 and 206 pounds). He missed his senior season of high school and most of his junior year at Alabama because of knee injuries.

Ouais..Art Shell n'était pas à plaindre puisqu'il a mené les Raiders au Superbowl. C'est avant tout cet inqualifiable playbook de l'offensive fait par le resturateur et des jouers... Mais on ne va pas se répeter éternellement.. Will see

Citation :

" The Raiders are preparing to make a run at Michael Vick, according to NFL sources. The Raiders package would include receivers Randy Moss and Jerry Porter plus the No.1 overall pick in the 2007 draft for Vick and the Falcons first round pick (10th overall)."

Wééééé !
Vick à Oakland !!!

J'en ai parlé déjà en pure spéculation il y a 10 jours dans mon Forum des Devils de Cenon (http://devilscenon.free.fr/)

C'est bien l'équipe qui lui faut.

Donc pas de SB pour lui; JAMAIS.

Vu qu'il a signé un contrat lui garantissant 37 millions de $ sur 10 ans il y a 2 ans.

Atlanta prendrait 80% des 37 millions en dead money, je crois.

Pas sur qu'Atlanta soit près à se prendre 30 millions de Dead Money pour la saison prochaine.

C'est une grosse connerie. Vick est et restera pour toujours le franchise player des Falcons. Les Falcons sont Vick.

Vick...
Pour continuer à avoir un Rating de 75 ?

Il a reçu une extension de contrat de 130 millions de dollars en 2004 pour 10 ans. Pour la saison 2005, il se tape 23 millions.
ça nous fait au bas mot un mec à environ 15 millions par an.

Pour ce Rating ?
Et avec ces ennuis de justice qui risquent l'empecher de jouer ? (il coutait quoi Ricky Williams ??? 7-8 millions par saison où il a été suspendu)
Meme en embauchant le meilleur WR en France, et en lui donnant le minimum salarial (Matt, ça te va, $600,000 ?) eh ben, sa ligne sera composée de gars aussi virevoltant s que Bob Marley ou Doc Gyneco (meme s'il a de faux airs de Nate Newton finalement), pour rester dans la métaphore phytophile.

Turner appears to be leading race for Dallas job
By Adam Schefter
NFL Analyst

MIAMI (Jan. 27, 2007) -- As they try to find the Dallas Cowboys' next head coach, Jerry Jones and his sons are saying little.

Others are being left to speak for them.

Norv Turner has been a disappointment as a head coach, but Dallas might still give him the job.
What is being said around the league is that it appears as if it is Norv Turner's job to lose. Turner is scheduled to meet with the Joneses in Dallas on Jan. 28. Saints defensive coordinator and former Cowboys assistant Gary Gibbs spent today huddling with the Joneses.

And sooner rather than later, as Chargers defensive coordinator Wade Phillips said after his interview with the Cowboys in Dallas on Jan. 26, the Joneses would like to wrap up their search. The answer could come as soon as Jan. 28.

Some expect it to be Turner, who would love to return to Dallas, even with San Francisco doing everything within its power to sweeten his contract and make it difficult for him to leave the 49ers.

Turner will not oppose the idea of keeping the Cowboys' head-coaching job warm for Jason Garrett, whom the Cowboys hired last week as their offensive coordinator/possible head coach/potential head coach in training. Turner wants to coach only another few years and landing in Dallas now could be the perfect curtain call to cap his career.

But also know this: Former Dallas quarterback Troy Aikman has had a significant influence on the Cowboys' coaching process. It is hardly accidental that two of the men Jones has gravitated to are Turner, who gave Aikman's Hall-of-Fame induction speech, and Garrett, whom Aikman cited during his Hall-of-Fame acceptance speech as his greatest professional confidant.

Aikman clearly endorsed each candidate to Jones, and the Cowboys owner was familiar enough with each man to include them in the process.

Now at least one, and quite possibly both, will be responsible for leading the Cowboys into 2007 and their new stadium in 2009.

F*CK!!!

Si c'est le cas y auront vraiment TOUT foiré lors de leur derniere draft... Il pouvait prendre Bush il ne l'ont pas fait (et D. Davis s'est bléssé pour la saison)... et VY voulait rester dans le Texas et avait fait pas mal d'appel de pied à houston et il ne l'ont pas choisi car ils avaient Carr.
