Since the offense is young I think him being looked up to (simms, williams, smith, clayton, etc) would boast his ego. I also think Brooks, Barber, Rice, Kelly would challenge him (if they are still there).
Here is my take on what happend and I do stress my take. TO was right on what he said but it never should have gone public. What McNabb did in the superbowl was a joke. He should have hung it up and had the surgery early. It is ok to call out your qb but do it inside the organization. Should Bly have gotten the same punishment as TO? Absolutely. This whole thing was a soap opera and I think he is smart enough now to realize it. Steve Young said that after that playoff catch against Green Bay that TO thanked him every single day for throwing him that pass for the ENTIRE next year. That is the TO I think we are going to see next year.

Your predictions are right in line with mine.
But anything can happen in the playoffs!

Parcells is the other coach i was thinking of, fyi. I like that idea, TB and TO. Plus, I don't think we have to play you next year until the playoffs
still waiting on that rematch from the missed field goal Hope the Bears take the cats this weekend.

I'll bite. You Pat fags will be gasping when we smoke you up in Mile High. You'll be green with envy when you see Jake the Snake's pr0n stache. Your D will be in pain when our O-Line chop blocks their knees.

The chop blocks are actually a concern - wonder who they'll be targetting tomorrow...

^^ Yeah it just turned out to be a little worse than normally expected. I think they found either another ligament damaged or one that was more severely damaged than previously thought once they were doing the surgery.
They say since he's in good physical condition his rehab won't take as long as others in bad shape. Which is a pretty
sentence I guess but o'well...

Hey Doom,
At first the news called and bugged the surgeon before he had everything figured out, so then they went and blew everything out of proportion and scared the fawk out of everybody. The surgeon said over the phone that it was the type of injury that could be career ending in "some types of athletes", and the news people took it to mean he was talking about Palmer.
So we heard that for a day or two, then they finally got it all straightened out. The surgeon ended up saying that it was worse than they first expected, but it really didn't affect how much longer he would be out or how much more therapy he will have to have.
Palmer said he'll be back hopefully by training camp, but no later than end of preseason/beginning of season. So whatever you take that to mean

I'm dieing over there... 2 fumbles and a "questionable" pass interference call let the broncos get 10 "cheap" points...
Samuels got robbed on that bad call.. Lelie had his hands all over Samuel while Samuel was looking for the ball...
