NFC East rumors
 

just looking over fox sports football page, and glanced thru the rumors section. 2 rumors, that would effect the skins, the giants are interested in Chicago linebacker Lance Briggs, in my opinion, Briggs is a big time, play making linebacker, that i want as far away from the NFC east as possible. the other is that Dante Stallworth, the Philly eagles free agent wide out, is looking for a big payday. and we all know that means some where other then Philly. this is good news for skins fans, Stallworth continually made big plays for the eagles. and with Mcnabb coming back, could have been a nightmare for the skins secondary. any thoughts?

Re: nfc east rumors
 

With Briggs, Pierce, and (a healthy) Arrington, the Giants would have an excellent LB corps. However, the Giants need a lot of help at DT and in the secondary.

I think Garcia and Stallworth was a bigger threat than McNabb and Stallworth was this year. It will be interesting to see how thing go if McNabb is 1) still injured at the begining of the year and Garcia is back and winning games or 2) McNabb is strugling and loosing games while Garcia is sitting on the bench. If McNabb is healthy and looses the first couple of games it could get real fun to watch.

I hope we never see that. Just Briggs and Pierce alone would be a force.

I doubt that Garcia will return to Philly - he's made it abundantly clear that he would leave Philly if the "right situation" (i.e., a starting job) presented itself.
As for McNabb-Stallworth, they were a good duo when Stallworth was healthy, which wasn't that often.

He is turning 37 this month and I just don't see a team that would want him as a one year starter in a new system. Maybe 2 years at best.

Re: NFC East rumors
 

stallworth such a threat yet still no 1000 yard season in his career. can have a big day but is extremely inconsistant.

Healthy Arrington-words you rarely see in a sentence together like Interception, Carlos Rogers or Classy Jerry Jones..

Lloyd certainly got a big deal for a guy that never broke a 1000 yds.

Re: NFC East rumors
 

let the g-men break the bank on briggs if they want. I said before the season that they reminded me of the 2000 skins, lot of old vets & big names, but would have problems putting it all together. Turns out that was one of a few things I was right about in preseason.
He could make them better, but lets let someone else in the divison spend all their $ for a change.

yeah and he was overrated, just like stallworth is.

Ya he did. I think Lloyd was the guy last year that made like a sick one handed catch almost every game. That probably caught Mr. Snyders eye and he almost blew one all over his checkbook when he heard the magic words:

Free Agency

Re: NFC East rumors
 

when we signed lloyd i got bashed for noting that his "higlight reel" consisted of 4-5 plays, shown 3+ times each (at different times in the same clip). one good play, and then he dissappears for the rest of the game. great signing. and no, i'm not bitter.

It was worse than that because he still had 1 year left on his deal, but yet we went ahead and gave him one of those giant contracts. What is wrong with those people?

Don't forget the third and the fourth we sent too!

A team that takes a QB in the draft would most definately want Garcia there. Are you kidding? Garcia proved he is a pretty damn good QB in a west coast offense. If he can get a job running that style of offense, he will start.

Joe Gibbs and Al Saunders got boners for him. Danny had nothing to do with it, he just signed the check. Gibbs has say over all personel decisions. Stop blaming Snyder.

one of the few FA signings I would agree with!
the man is a beast. He could play inside too. He would be like a Ray Lewis on the inside.

They need a middle linebacker. I think the outside would be fine with Washington, Rocky and Lemar.

Yeah I agree. On a team that runs the west coast system he'd be an ideal one year starter to provide time for a rookie to develop behind him.

I think Briggs is one of those guys that get's 'caught' out of position in Gregg Williams' defense. Briggs is very active, if you will, and I think within our system you may not see the same type of play from him.

We all know what happens when you think you are getting a big time play maker and you pay him a lot of money = a whole lot of nothing!!

They can hire whoever they want, but it all comes down to game day.

If thats true then, you win. I just see lots of things going bad and Dan Snyder normally has his checkbook open to foot the bill for our whims. We gave WAYYYYYYY too big a contract and SUCH a RETARDED signing deal AND the picks? We are f-ing retarded.....thanks Vinny. Dick.

Damn right he was absolutely the best Bear on defense yesterday. He was all over the place.

The G-men as you say will not break the bank they learned that from others .Briggs says he looking at only 2 places and they were Bears and Giants ,If they had won I would say hed have gone to NY but with the lose he'll stay and get in Chicago.

No he was'nt .His name was barely called at all.

He did lead the team in tackles with 11 and 2 assists. That was 4 more than Urlacher but you'd never know it with the way Simms and Nantz were practically offering him oral pleasures in the broadcast booth.

Re: NFC East rumors
 

Speaking of those two, did it not seem like they were un-naturally close when they showed them in the booth last night?

DAMN, what a literally "gay" Super Bowl.

Re: NFC East rumors
 

It looked kind of like Simms had his hand on Nantz's ass.
