LOL, man those Falcons must love old RB's.

I don't see how you can make that assessment. JR is built similar to MJD. I wouldn't mind seeing him get a shot.

Again, as a kid- before there was an NFL team that claimed the Carolinas, I was a Packers fan. I never referred to the team as "we" or "us" since I had never lived in Wisconsin.

It just sounds weird.

Good moves for the falcons. Abraham was getting up there and dunta isn't that great.

Do you refer to Carolina as "we"?

Much different when comparing a college to a pro team.
As odds are he is an alumni from the University. So when saying we, he is talking about the Football team that represents the University which he attended.

I get what he means but I don't see anything weird about it. I used to when referring to pro teams. But now as I've gotten older, I've seen more and more people will refer to their professional sport allegiances as "we".

Yes, because it is the flagship university of the state I've lived in my entire life, and I got my bachelors degree from Carolina.

This is basically why teams backload contracts like this..... because they know it will help them for a couple years, and then they can cut the players knowing full well they never intended to pay the inflated salaries at the end of the contract!

But Dunta and John have made a nice wad of cash......hopefully they invested the money and can live "happily ever after!"

My point is that some people mock others when they refer to Carolina as we, since they are not part of the team. Those that do that are not much different than Floyd mocking people on here that refer to their pro team as we. I honestly don't think it matters, and when I see posters making fun of something so silly, they just seem like an Internet bully to me.

I've already explained my position on referring to a team as "we" when that team doesn't even represent your area.

Dunta signed with the Chiefs

Dunta was great before the defenseless player safety initiative but he blows people up too much in today's game

Last i saw Dunta play he got knocked out for the game after Doug Martin ran him over.

DA954BADBOY · 03-09-2013, 04:23 PM

The Buccs resigned Blount and heard they're looking to trade him. The Buccs also have interest in Abraham. He had 10 sacks and 6 forced fumbles last year. Also he can mentor Bowers and Clayborn.

Looks like Stephen Jackson will sign with the Falcons.

HaHaHa, looks like I was right.

The Falcons DO LOVE them some old running backs.

They just signed Stephen Jackson.

Cool story

bigdawg77 · 03-14-2013, 11:39 PM

Given how deep this draft is on defense getting the RB you need in FA and defense in the draft makes the most sense. They get a back in Jackson that is 29, 4 years younger then Turner for 2.9 million a year less then Turner's 6.9 would have been for 2013.
