Considering how much Jerry Jones loved the guy, I am absolutely shocked if this move happens, considering the season he had last year. Interesting to see how this affects Eddie and the running game.

Looks like it will be Vinny's offense to run. It's a little shocking that he was released after Parcells kept saying he was #1 going into camp because he started all the games last year... that's one way to avoid a QB controversy.

Henson must look pretty good, too.

 

[Bucklion]

Ah yes, the Golden Boy. Wonder how Parcells will feel if:


A) Vinny needs a walker to get out onto the field, and

B) Henson is the next Hutchinson

Doesn't leave him with a whole lot of options.

Ugh ! Now I've got to change my BP leauge draft ratings !!!

Looks like Tee Martin now moves up a slot.

Interceptaverde is now the starter!
i love it, he won't make it through the season, and his backup hasn't played in 5 years. this is great!

I saw a report that Quincy tested positive for cocaine.


I'll look for a link...

<edit>

pasted from espn.com:

Sources told ESPN and ESPN.com that Carter recently failed a drug test. Carter already was in the NFL substance-abuse program, having tested positive for an illegal substance in the past, according to ESPN's Chris Mortensen. ESPN.com has learned that Carter spent time at a drug rehabilitation facility within the past 18 months.

League sources told ESPN.com that despite the positive test Carter is not under suspension.



A source close to Carter vehemently denied a broadcast report that the quarterback had tested positive for cocaine.

i used to think kids wanted to play in the nfl because of the money. now-a-days its so they can get away with crimes.

can you tell me how doing drugs in the NFL warrants a fine/suspension (only after youve been caught 2 times) but doing it in real life warrants fines/jail time?

 

[LoKyBuckeye]

It's all over eSPN radio about the cocaine. They also said that Keyshawn had a run in with Parcells when pratice started.

Apparently no one had any idea this was coming:

I love Interceptaverde's quote, which roughly translated, is:

"I am sorry to see a bright young player go, but you can be sure my jurassic slapass feels very fortunate I won't be holding a clipboard this season as I lead my team to 7-9 greatness."

Is doing cocaine a crime? Well selling it is. And having it in your possession is. But if a patient is seen in the ER and his drug test is positive for cocaine, I don't think the hospital calls the police.
