I just graduated from Penn State. You know Sean Lee and Navarro Bowman? Watching Mauti on the field was akin to watching them play. If this guy can truly get over his injuries, he can be elite.
I'm also wondering why Hodges, the other PSU LB, didn't see any action on an essentially meaningless ...

Re: Farewell Kluwe
As I said, it was purely editorial in nature. the only thing that differentiates it from the kind of thing we do here is that it was published on Deadspin.

That behavior, for one.
Look, if you or anybody else likes Deadspin, that's fine. Nobody is saying you can't or shouldn't. The point ...

Re: Farewell Kluwe
Because it's a gossip site not a news site. I'm not saying they get everything wrong, just that the nature of the site is different. The site has it's place. News sites aren't wholly reliable either but I think there are degrees of reliability and different editorial standards when it comes to ...

Re: Kluwe released I wish him all the best
I think the sacrifice would be worth it," Kluwe told Chip Scoggins of the Star Tribune. "Now, I would hope that I would get the chance to play football again, because I think I can still play. But if it ends up being something that costs me that position, I think making people aware of an issue ...

Re: ** Official 2013 Draft Thread **
I'm very intrigued with the two PSU LB's. That Penn St. program went through a lot of turmoil for circumstances that had nothing really to do with that current roster. With everyone transferring out and being under the microscope like that, and to come out with a winning season like they did...That ...

Re: PFF Free Agency Tracker
Our cap space looks fine I believe, even accounting for expected rookie contracts. I trust Spielman and like his strategy so far.

Re: Vikings vs Packers (again) for Jennings
We still have 2 first round picks that could go towards WR. I don't understand why people are lamenting that this signing violates build-through-draft philosophy. That doesn't mean there are going to be zero FA signings every off-season..and WR was most certainly our greatest lack.

Re: Souhan: Ownership got it right with coach and culture
Favre and Brady never exhibited a weak arm and poor mechanics. Their fundamentals were solid, even when they were rookies. My biggest worry with Ponder is that he doesn't have the physical abilities to be an effective NFL passer. Let's assume we can develop his decision-making and ability to read ...

Re: Ponder's injury/toughness
RGIII had a torn LCL and Shanahan had him play? He should be fired!!! That's one of the dumbest moves a coach could have ever made.
Wow.
Dr. James Andrews, who treated both RGIII and AD, did not clear the former to play after his injury. He played anyway. This is the result. Totally ...

Re: Pat Shurmur to be Vikings OC?
They scored 3 points and took nearly 6 minutes off the clock. That's the recipe to having a shot (albeit slim) at winning. Keep Rodgers on the sideline. To say it wouldn't work, when it did, isn't fair. There's zero evidence to support it would not have worked because they abandoned it so quickly ...

Re: EVERSON GRIFFEN.....
I'd say trade Allen if anything. He's getting older and his pass rush is not the same
Just as Winfield is the veteran leader of the secondary, Allen undoubtedly fills the same role with the defensive line (if not the front 7 altogether). He is still productive and, perhaps more importantly, a ...
