    Julius Peppers in a Packers uniform. Jared Allen in a Bears uniform.

    The NFC North is going to look strange next year.

    * sakes.............

    NFL = No Fun League. The people running the sport won't be happy till the players just shake hands and say 'jolly good Touchdown old chap' before taking a dignified stroll to the sidelines for a cup of Earl Grey. Boring * *. Dunking the ball over the crossbar is NOT taunting. Let the players celebrate and interact with the fans!

    I miss the good old days of proper TD celebrations..............

    Some of these are awesome. My favourite is Laurence Maroney with the car.

    I see the 'Greatest Ever QB' vote on nfl.com quickly descended into a farce. Russell Wilson beat Peyton Manning in the 1st round of voting. :97:

    Brilliant!

    Russell Wilson shouldn't even have been in the voting. I love the fact they have hijacked it though.

    Knowshawn Moreno agrees deal with Miami and Maurice Jones Drew visiting Oakland Raiders.

    A big thumbs up from the Denver coaching staff for Monte Ball with Moreno going.

    Vince Wilfork agrees new deal with New England. Apparently it's only one year guaranteed with the other 2 years optional. $8 million for guaranteed.

    So their RB's next year will be Ball, Hillman and a rookie?? I like that.

    Pats resigning Vince is good news, means we can focus on DE/TE/OL in draft.

    Ball is good, he was just as effective as Moreno when they were splitting carries in games.

    I'm glad he didn't go the Patriots or, even worse, the Stoolers. He's one of my favourite players is MJD.

    De Sean Jackson cut by the Eagles. Good free agent signing if he finds the right team.

    There's a few teams he'd be a good pickup for if they can afford him........

    NY Jets
    Tennessee Titans
    Oakland Raiders
    Washington Redskins

    Rumours around his off the field interests and company being floated as reasons why Eagles shipped him out. Had been looking to trade him.

    Mark Sanchez has agreed a 1 year deal with Deebo Eagles

    I know Jackson isn't an angel and he is obligated to act the way he does in that video. But he seems a decent guy and no doubt is a great player. Whoever gets him is going to be lucky.
