Did anyone pick the Cardinals? Follow-up: I propose we start a side pool to see when Carson Palmer gets replaced. It's a bright future in Arizona with...is Brady Quinn still there?

I'm picking Seattle Seahawk tonight

Just one? Why not pick the whole team to win?


Lol, congratulations you made me spit my tea out in laughter!

Nobody picked the Cardinals.

And at least the Cardinals don't have Gabbert. Remember the times when I said that Gabbert not being able to play for the Jaguars is an advantage for the team? The experts on nfl.com say the same thing.

I think we can all agree that the mediocrity that is Chad Henne is a vast improvement over the sucking chest wound of terribleness that is Blaine Gabbert. Well, almost all: the coaching staff still doesn't seem 100% sold on that. I think they should shell out the cash to get Tebow! >_>

Yeah, Tebow should be brought back into the NFL. It's not like Jacksonville has anything to lose.

Next year they should draft a QB. No idea what's going on in college football though. It's also too bad that the Giants will get the #1 pick and they want a new QB too!

I think the Jaguars will get the tie-breaker, no? I forget the exact formula, but if point differential plays a role I expect the Jags to get the edge. Too bad they don't play each other this year, preferably in Week 17: I would eagerly watch that.

There will be no need for the tie-breaker, because the Giants will only win one game this season. Meanwhile, the Jaguars will sweep the Texans.

So the Jags won't even get the second pick? Way to shoot yourselves in the foot, guys!

So what's with this new rule that just screwed over the Patriots? You can't push your own guy from behind? I guess it's a safety thing, but a 15 yd penalty for that? Dang. I feel bad for that rookie.
