Got to Love Kaps GF calling out the Ravens owner and Ray Lewis on Twitter. This is one to make sure your BF doesn't get a job with this organization. How stupid can these people be. Also Damien Woody an ESPN laughing about it in response is just as ridiculous. And they wonder why nobody like ESPN.

Anyone getting to any games? I'm off to my second game on US soil in Week 8 and cannot wait.

Im meant too be in Pittsburgh for the month of October and the jets have 2 games at home on the 29th October and the 2nd of November, so I'm hoping to get to both of those

Am going to Dallas v Green Bay as am in Dallas that weekend, friend has season tickets otherwise would be a no go. The price of tickets is ridiculous.

That's the game unfortunately. I'm going to Seahawks @ Giants with a school friend who now lives in Seattle and we're likely going to spend a stupid amount of cash on tickets. But if you're going all that way you don't want to sit in the Gods on a cold October New Jersey evening.

The one small benefit of supporting a sh1t team is the tickets are dirt cheap!! These are for the Atlanta game


I might even go all out and pay 60 bucks for half way line tickets!

Talks of Tannehill being out for the season. Cutler may be back in the league!

Not a bad fit for the Dolphins, Cutler while he has his downside has plenty of experience , talent and a big arm.

Billy86

Does he have any interest in coming back though? I'm pretty sure he would have had a few potential suitors before he packed it in.

He's worked with Gase before as well.

ESPN and NFL network are both saying he's interested in being a starter somewhere. I think he didn't want to go and take a back up role anywhere.

Going to be at the Dolphins/Bucs game in Week 1.

Was hoping to sneak in a college game too but couldn't swing it.

This is really important, I think, because that was probably the second best year of his career too, think he'd do very well there.

Oat23

I don't think he'd come out of retirement to play anywhere else apart from the Dolphins because Gase is there.

Hoping it happens now

Miami herald reporting that the Dolphins have contacted Jay Cutler

I mean Jay Cutler would be mad to not at least hear the dolphins out if they have approached him. I mean Florida is warmer than Chicago most of the year and he'd get a new few pound if he's the starter and no state income tax in Florida.

I love the gold jacket ceremony on HOF weekend. I have to say I'm delighted that Terrell Davis is now a hall of Famer.

Even though I'm an Eagles fan, I have to say fair play to Jerry Jones.

Cutler has agreed to a one year deal with the Dolphins

JaMarcusHustle

He'll be benched/re-retired/on IR by the bye week anyway.

2009 was the last time he played all 16 games apparently.

Delighted to hear this. Always like to watch Cutler play, and think he will get the best out of Landry, Parker and Stills. I assume it will be week 2 or 3 before hes ready to start though?

thomond2006

I saw Jay Cutler last year in Soldier Field and this year I'll see him in Wembley!

Vince Wilfork calling it a day.

Him in dungarees and cowboy boots is an awesome sight!

Jets place Quincy Enunwa on IR.

Is there a record worse than 0-16? :pac:

Feck it and the Jets were so close to making the playoffs.

Well, apparently he'll owe the team back 3.7m of his signing bonus if he does retire, so I imagine you'll see him have a change of heart pretty quickly.

And right on cue, Albert reports to training camp taking each and every one of us by surprise.

He should be ready by Week One so long as he's fit. He knows the system. It took Sam Bradford what three weeks to start last year. Cutler has the whole of pre-season.

Really interesting take on Josh McCown, and those perennial backups...

I hope Big Vince is signing with us for one day before he officially hands it in his papers. He is a Patriots legend and future hall of famer.

Vinbce gonna pull a DeMarcus Ware....
I'm sure it was done before DeMarcus but fully agree that Vince should retire as a Patriot, just feels wrong if he doesn't..

If this is true its going to blow up in Kaps face

http://dailysnark.com/rumor-colin-kaepernick-turned-contract-play-race-card-money/

“Despite the ongoing narrative that Kaepernick’s very public political views are preventing any NFL teams from offering him a roster spot, TheDC’s source claims Kaep himself has turned down at least one contract in the hopes of stirring up a media frenzy that eventually leads to a more lucrative deal for the 27-year-old vet.
