The Cardinals went with Dobbs who was a journeyman unknown. Burrow still doesn’t look quite right and the Bengals said no. Two other teams quickly wanted out of the Wentz business. To me it just doesn’t feel like NFL teams think this quarterback is talented enough to be worth the hassle. Maybe Wentz should grow a giant afro and play the r...cism card. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The USFL in the 80's set itself up to compete and had some genuinely top end talent, this iteration of the USFL is not near that level. If he winds up in USFL he's completely done at NFL level, vet players who go to lower leagues and come back are rare as rocking horse turds. The only guys that ever make it are undrafted rookies who end up on practise squads, the one guy I can remember making an active roster is Turpin at the Cowboys.

He just needs to try and right himself. Prove he can drop all the hero crap and the bad mechanics. Show he can be the upper tier guy he once was. If he isn’t just owning this league then he’s never getting back. That’s assuming he actually does try to do this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VaBeach_Eagle Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 NFL legend Terrell Owens hit by car after basketball game in California, police say Owens was playing a pickup basketball in the Calabasas area Quote Pro Football Hall of Famer Terrell Owens was struck by a vehicle in the Calabasas area on Monday, Sgt. Maria Navarro of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department confirmed to Fox News Digital. The incident is being investigated as an intentional act instead of as an accident. Owens got into an argument with an unidentified individual during a pickup basketball game. Once the game ended, the unknown male drove a car toward Owens and clipped him. The former Dallas Cowboys star wide receiver didn't suffer severe injuries and declined medical attention, authorities said. Navarro confirmed with Fox News Digital that the suspect, once apprehended, would be charged with "assault with a deadly weapon." No arrests have been made in the case as of Tuesday. Owens didn't immediately return Fox News Digital's request for comment. Owens finished his storied NFL career with 15,934 receiving yards. He played for the San Francisco 49ers, Philadelphia Eagles, Dallas Cowboys, Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals. He skipped his Hall of Fame ceremony in Canton in 2018, and instead held his own ceremony in Chattanooga. Owens has been involved in multiple incidents over the past several months. Last August, a woman accused Owens of driving recklessly and nearly running her off the road in his Florida neighborhood. Owens and the woman then appeared to have a heated exchange. Police were called to the scene. Terrell Owens attends the game between the Buffalo Bills and the New England Patriots at Highmark Stadium on Dec. 6, 2021, in Orchard Park, New York. (Bryan M. Bennett/Getty Images) The retired football player was initially charged with lying to authorities, but prosecutors later dropped the charge. In November 2022, Owens was involved in an incident outside a CVS in Inglewood, California. Video showed Owens throwing a punch at an unidentified man outside the store. The man was suspected of harassing people in the store. The six-time Pro Bowler later told The Associated Press he acted in self-defense when the male "made offensive gestures and threatening statements" to him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiwinavega Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Our old friend Nelson Agholor just made a nice play for Baltimore, finding a way open and directing Lamar Jackson to find him in the back of the end zone. I like that guy Agholor, didn't set Philly on fire but always gave his all. Good to see him still in the league and making some plays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that guy Agholor, didn't set Philly on fire but always gave his all. Good to see him still in the league and making some plays Agholor is capable of being a productive complimentary receiver. But if injuries or depth made him "the guy," mentally he seemed to break down. He had such a disappointing season the year he was playing on the 5th year option. He never played at the level to warrant what he made that year, but I wasn't opposed to re-signing him after that for a modest short term contract around what the Raiders paid him. Getting away from Philly may have helped him, though, after the whole "unlike Agholor" stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Ertz overestimated his value he wanted George Kittle / Travis Kelce level money, even though his numbers were volume driven and he was nowhere near their level at getting yards after the catch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the most part yes, but the Eagles didn’t just drop him on any team to do so. They sent him someplace they thought could compete and at the time Arizona seemed good. At least that’s how I viewed it. I was surprised they couldn’t work something out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
