Off the top of my head Redskins, Jags, Dolphins and maybe the Giants are all desperate for a QB so you'd think it would one of those, I haven't been following college football this season but I believe it's not a good QB class so you'd think he'd end up a starter at one of those even if he is a very streaky player...

The rightful 4 teams are left, just anyone but the Pats please.

Jags stupidly went big on Bortles so if they get Foles they’ll be using most of their cap to do it.

Giants toyed with getting rid of Manning last season or at least playing him less and got shit from the fan base. Fuck knows why. Yes he has 2 SB’s but he’s in terminal decline. Beckham Jr was a better QB for them this year. But if Manning dosent retire I don’t see him getting displaced. No-one else is going to want him so I think he’ll sort of stay there as long as contract permits and wait for a push which probably won’t come.

Be surprised if Redskins went for yet another QB after this year.

Dolphins is probably a good fit. Bucks also need a proper QB.
 
Some strange head coach hirings. Down in AZ & at the Browns. Also Le Fluer has came from nowhere to go in at Green Bay. Considering what a big organisation they are.

Seems like everyone is looking for the next Sean McVeigh. Be interesting to see how it all goes
 
After an iffy season I wasn't to confident last night, but we put the foot down on the chargers neck.

Brady has got the bit between his teeth again, commenting afterwards its them against the world.

Be a fantastic game vs the chiefs, i think it'll be another high scoring game. But fancy the pats to use experience and win it.

6 time incoming :cool:

Yeah Giants all depends on Eli Manning retiring or not I think they'll draft a QB to sit behind him, as for the Redskins and Jags they don't have a whole load of cap space but they're going to have to find a QB from somewhere.

I think whoever gets him will end up regretting it and he'll end up back at the Eagles as a backup.

Be interesting to see who goes in at New England. Would be surprised if Brady plays on beyond this season, certainly can't see Gronk going back at TE. They're obviously not going to run Hoyer as starter

The only way the skins will get a QB in the off season is via the draft, cap space is a mess as per usual for the organisation. Even if Alex Smith retires due to injury it will still cost the skins 20+ million.

Hes' a prime Martin O Neil signing. Potential to be a key player but at the salary of a proven great. He's all about the chemistry he has with his existing receivers and his now established end of season legend and he'll lose both if he leaves while also having the millstone of a franchise salary around his neck.

Don’t mind Jags or Dolphins - Redskins and Giants a bit too close to home for my liking if you get my meaning.

Agreed - not the Pats again!

Such a f***ing Patriot thing to say. Only they could convince themselves on the eve of going to their 8th straight AFC Championship that they were somehow the underdog.

Look at the statistics with Manning. Despite a slow start to the season as the offensive line struggled, Eli had one of his best seasons statistically. Despite a 5-11 season they lost most of their games by score or less. Only being blown out 3 times in the season. Manning still threw for nearly 4,300 yards (he has only thrown for more three times) in a season where he was sacked 47 times (more than at any time in his career) and this is his second lowest season for interceptions.. Yes he isn't that mobile and doesn't scramble outside the pocket, but was one of the most accurate passer on attempts over 20 yards this season. That said it is probably time for him to step aside, he has been hit too many times in the past four or five seasons to be as productive as a Philip Rivers or Big Ben.

Eli had a good year by the numbers, the problem was that O-Line was porous as hell to start the year of and the defence just isn't up to scratch. Still improvements year on year is all we can ask for as Giants fans and I think Shurmur has them heading in the right direction. Couple of draft additions on defence and the o-line and I will be happy.

Jets terrible. Green Bay very average but given they have one of the best QB’s of all time average for them is worse than it is for most. They sacked their head coach who I think has been there for like a decade or longer

Rodgers will go down as one of the greats of the game, but he was pissed before the season even started as he lost Jordy Nelson who is not only his favorite receiver but also a close personal friend. Having seen Rodgers play a number of times this season he just didn't seem to be trying at 100% whether the injury from last year or he was trying to get the coach fired....

They are clearly the underdog going in to Kansas. Mahomes is a beast and I think the Pats will do well to keep it within 1 score to be honest. Pats have always been my number 2 team, but I love watching this Mahomes kid.
