Seriously? What kind of Italian is he?

Please, just don't talk about it anymore.

Hey faggots: this is the thread for the Super Bowl XLX favorites. Let's stay on topic!

Will do.

Before free agency started, the Colts had 14-1 to 12-1 odds at most Vegas sportsbooks.

It's also possible that the MGM really, really liked the fact the Colts dumped Trent Richardson on Thursday.

Overall, the five top favorites to win Super Bowl 50 at the MGM book are the Colts (5-1), Seahawks (11-2), Packers (11-2), Patriots (6-1) and Cowboys (8-1), according to the odds obtained by ESPN.com.

NFL Network pundits already have Murray going to Oakland for the #4 pick.

Maybe they trade Bradford and Murray since they appear to be chummy and since Bradford played a big part in getting Murray here.

At this point, I'm fine with what they've done up to this point - I'm on record that I like Bradford better than Foles and while I think Shady is more talented than Murray, the one thing Murray does do very well as a running back is to keep going forward, and even falling forward on tackles - those little yards add up and work in Chip's offense where negative yards are fatal.

They probably do need another WR, but at this point I don't see anyone I'd like to pick up in free agency, so that will have to come in the draft. If they stand still with who they have, you have to think you'd see a lot of two-back sets - it gets those guys on the field more often, it could help with protection to make sure Bradford stays healthy, it could give you the multiple run options that you would get with just a running QB but don't have because it's Bradford, and you could always have those guys split out. Ertz really needs to step up this year as a TE receiving threat, even more than he was last year.

Defense looks significantly better at this point, with only the safety position to be addressed, and again, that will have to be a draft thing since the only position weaker in free agency than WR is safety.

Gotta say, I like where Chip is heading with all this. If he does something to get Mariota I'm sure that will be fun to watch as well. Heckuva an offseason so far.

Mathews doesn't pass block. One of the reasons the Chargers rarely had him on the field in 3rd down situations.

Injury Risk - HIGH

2013 NFL Knee Murray sprained his MCL in week 6 and missed the following 2 games
2012 NFL Leg Murray suffered a hamstring pull in training and missed OTAs
2012 NFL Foot Sprained foot against Baltimore and missed the next 6 games
2011 NFL Ankle DeMarco Murray fractured his right ankle and was placed on IR missing the remaining 3 games.
2011 NFL Leg Missed first 2 preseason games with hamstring issues
2008 College Leg Pulled a hamstring and missed a game
2007 College Knee Dislocated his patella and missed the folliowing 3 games

Thank goodness the Cardinals don't have anyone with a significant injury history. I hear Carson Palmer is as healthy as a horse!

And? You been taking posting lessons from Z?

I don't get too worked up over third string QB talk. I bet SH is getting excited though.

He's been working on his mechanics for a couple of years now. He'll be fine if he gets another chance. Philly didn't work out, but SOMEBODY will be desperate enough to pick him up this season, and then he'll prove all you dummies wrong....

He's closer to 30 than 20... Maybe then 25. If he hasn't gotten it down yet it isn't going to come around

And so were the "dream team" Eagles a few years ago.

Well I guess you missed the part where I was responding to 93 saying this thread is about the Super Bowl 50 favorites. Carry on.

Wait - what? You posted something and you weren't totally serious?

Not sure how to process this information.
