Seems like of all the QB's in the NFL, Brees is probably the best suited to step up and be the leader in the absence of the head coach. Guy seems like a natural leader.

except that brees has no intention of signing the franchise deal and the team seems unwilling to offer another contract

[Savage]

i mean everything about the suspension is ridiculous but how do you not take away the team's first round pick after you force them to tank a season

theyre gonna end up with the 3rd overall pick or something instead of the 26th or whatever they would have gotten

Maybe they'll make the Saints play a man short on defense all season.

Perhaps just attach shackles with kettleballs to their ankles

The levees have broken on the New Orleans Internet.

there are going to be team sanctions too but they haven't been determined yet

Yeah that's a pretty good point, I forgot about that whole issue. The guy stepped up pretty big during the lockout, so I was thinking he would do that here. Though along with the contract issue, I wonder how much this bounty thing makes him still committed to the team. You'd figure as a QB he'd be pretty sensitive to it.

i was reading two second-round picks

[dog liver]

#timsanity is now trending

[seriesfinale]

Payton doesn't even get paid that year, jeez

[Amblin]

Payton doesn't even get paid that year, jeez

karma for the SCAB

[VHGisdead]

what's the most Christian neighborhood/community in NY/NJ

[fester]

i was reading two second-round picks

looks like that's right

so they won't sign brees, tank the season, and draft barkley next year

[VHGisdead]

smh @ trading a winning playoff QB for a 4th round pick

[IRZ]

Wait wait wait.

Sean Payton is suspended for ONE YEAR?

[DestructoBot]

the packers were pretty close to having payton and williams on their staff. dodged a bullet there.

kinda getting a jonah hill vibe from this

[DestructoBot]

can't imagine a worse time to get caught intentionally hurting other players for bonuses and then lying about it

i think my favorite part of today is that tebow was taken as a first round pick, pretty much exceeded everyone's expectations as a qb (at least as far as w-l goes)...and went for a 4th rounder

I think the NFL vastly over-values its draft pics, but wth do I know.

[DestructoBot]

anyway, fuck the fucking saints I hope they rot in hell

[s/ns]

I can't believe how perfectly this Manning thing has worked out. Tebow on the Jets is fucking beautiful.

Yeah you really can't make this up. It's perfect.

[dragon jeans]

and a 6th.

And fuck everyone involved w/ the Saints scandal.

Yep.

[dog liver]

hire tony sparano
give sanchez a raise
give away draft picks for tebow

damn jets

[granger]

please be in touch if you'd like to join my facebook group, Jets Fans for Sweet, Sweet Death

[Cronos]

Maybe theyll just start Tebow a running back that can throw. Not like the Jets have a running game right now and they need something so Sanchez throws less

[kreepmode]

[SERIOUSLY GUYS]

can't imagine a worse time to get caught intentionally hurting other players for bonuses and then lying about it

this is ridiculous, every single fucking defensive player in today's NFL is trying to remove other players from the game...there's no way NOT to play the game without severe injuries being an accepted side effect. blame rules, equipment, and training regiments, not players and coaches

i mean it's not like these dudes were kicking guys in the knees and breaking arms

Payton's mistake was only in acknowledging it in a stupid way
