Why would the Colts regret it? They just signed Vinatieri.

Vanderjagt is better or, at least, no worse, than Vinateri. The Colts' decision to cut him was an act of pettiness.

Bunch of babies.

If Dallas is fortunate, they'll have a one-year honeymoon with T.O.

[mainepatsfan]

Not with the game on the line.

Owens is the best wide receiver in the NFL.

Owens is poison. No sane organization would want him in their clubhouse.

SD

[mainepatsfan]

That's the best case scenario.

Yes, Landry coached Irvin during his rookie year. Jerry Jones fired Tom the next season.

Same thing was said about Charles Haley when Jimmy Johnson brought him in in 1991.

Two Super Bowls later, Haley turned out to be the key ingredient.

poor 'ol Drew Bloody&sore

that is hilarious

The interesting thing will be TO vs. Parcells; no offense to Eagles fans, but Andy Reid isn't exactly the kind of "GRRRRR" coach that Parcells is.

barry switzer was worse than jerry by far

[ziggy_dlo]

by the stats they put up for the last year, vanderyack was better than viniateri.

Owens doesn't need a buddy; he needs a daddy. Parcells knows the role of "daddy." He kept Keyshaun under control this past season; there wasn't a peep out of him.

Owens may be different, but I'd bet Rosenhaus has told him this is his last chance.

The Colts are going to regret not re-signing Vanderjagt, as are others in need of a kicker for not signing him.

The Colts got Adam Vinatieri. Vanderjagt may be a better kicker, but with the game on the line, who do you want kicking, Vinarieri or Vanderchoke?

Vanderjagt was a diruption to the team. An excellent kicker, but also one who is 0-2 in critical playoff kicks. His huge ego and personal conflict with Manning sealed his fate. It was the right move which will create a much more united lockerroom.

Yes, but when playoff games are on the line, vanderchoke is 0-2, while Viniateri is perfect.

[Zack Nguyen]

This is good news. I cannot describe the disaster that was Cowboy kicking last year.

Regarding T.O., ugh, I just can't embrace him, though I confess to be excited about what he will probably do to our offense.

[Zack Nguyen]

Landry coached Irvin for one year before he was fired. Landry drafted Irvin.

[sinkspur]

His huge ego and personal conflict with Manning sealed his fate. It was the right move which will create a much more united lockerroom.

Any time there's a problem in Indianapolis, it seems Manning is right there in the middle of it.

His silly complaining about his "protection" after a pathetic performance against Pittsburgh tells me the boy has still got some maturing to do.

Yes, but when playoff games are on the line, vanderchoke is 0-2, while Viniateri is perfect.

true but you need someone to get you to the playoffs and cortez and all of the other fools that came through Dallas and Tuna took a bite out of em and said GRRRR to they sucked beyond belief. Practice makes better not perfect.
