I don't think it's as much about the injury as it is about the fact that they have very few assets to deal, and that team is a mess.

I don't think you deal a top 5 defensive player unless you know something others don't. I think that dealing assets is great, but I think Revis is too good.

JLRedWing13

If they don't think they can keep him long-term, then dealing him is the logical way to go. They've already had one contract dispute with him.

Champ Bailey > Lions entire secondary

MetalSSlayer

No shit. A cardboard cutout > Lions secondary.

I wanted the Lions to get Champ Bailey for so long when he was in Washington. Dammit Millen. :-L

SATAN

Instead, you got his brother with bad knees

This the most excruciating wait for a Super Bowl since the Bears were in it. Seriously so fucking stoked for this game.

mrAPE

You were what 11 or 12 then. I doubt it was your priority then.

Any paticular reason why?

Do you all think ray lewis will would be a good coach?

Chicken_Fucker

No he stoopit

WakeOfAshes

I always thought Randall Cunningham was going to be a coach after he retired. Anyone think Manning will be a coach when he retires?

SATAN

Lewis might make a decent college coach, but if he hits the NFL he'll prolly end up like Mike Singletary

SATAN

Manning looks like the next Bill Parcells though. He already looks like he's doing more coaching than John Fox

What about just a DC? I mean dude knows the in's and out's of D and I'm sure Reed will follow him )

Oh yeah for sure. Manning has always been the coach of the offense no matter who the HC or OC was. When he's the QB it's his offense and he can do whatever he wants since he's that fucking good.

SATAN

Manning seems motivated as well. From everything you read, he spends more time looking at film than the coaches do

Made Mike McCoy into a head coach too, which is hilarious. He did a good job with Tebow, but his HC stock wouldn't have been high enough without Manning.

Eh, I dunno about that. Coaches need to know a lot about systems and players within that system to be really successful. Maybe he could be a good LB coach, where the positional knowledge is more important, but I don't know if he would ever get high enough to be a DC.
