Random News Shit: NFL Old Head Edition

SAN DIEGO, CA - NOVEMBER 29:  Runningback LaDainian Tomlinson #21 of the San Diego Chargers runs the ball against the Kansas City Chiefs during the NFL game on November 29, 2009 at Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego, California.
1) LaDainian Tomlinson In Talks With Vikings, Jets LaDainian Tomlinson Sign 2-Year Deal With Jets
Wait, wait, wait, so the Vikings let Chester Taylor walk, and the Jets let Thomas Jones go for the possibility to get L.T.'s corpse?? Yeah, Taylor and Jones are both on the wrong side of 30 as well, but at least they have something left in the tank. Did these 2 teams see LaDainian play last year?? He just hits the hole and falls down, he's doner than done at this point.

Oh well, if L.T. and his agent can convince one of these clubs to give him a bunch of money even though he's a shell of himself, then more power to him.


I wrote all that before L.T. signed and I didn't feel like wasting it so I just crossed it out lol. Anyway, L.T. has chosen the New York over the Minnesota to house his remains for the 2010 season. Good luck with that New York.

2) Browns Sign Jake Delhomme
So the Browns got rid of Derek Anderson and Brady Quinn to bring in Jake Delhomme?? Really, Jake Delhomme?? I can't wait to hear how they try to sell that one to the fans in Cleveland.

And I'm not saying Anderson or Quinn were the answer in Cleveland, but outside of JaMarcus Russell, Delhomme was easily the next worst QB in the NFL last season. I mean, the guy threw 18 picks in 11 games, he was a turnover machine. Then to make matters worse, as soon as he got hurt, the Panthers instantly got better with Matt Moore at the helm. I hope Browns are planning on taking a QB with one of those many draft picks this April because a terrible Browns team plus Jake Delhomme as the starter may equal the 2nd 0-16 team in 3 years.

3) Bengals Choose Antonio Bryant Over T.O.
Despite Chad Ocho Cinco Johnson pleas on Twitter, Terrell Owens will NOT be lining up across the field from him next year in Cincinnati. Instead that position will be filled by ex-Cowboy, Buc, Brown, and 49er, Antonio Bryant.

Now yall know I'm a major supporter of T.O., but they probably made the right choice. I mean, of course Bryant is younger, but you just wouldn't wanna do that to Carson Palmer. The man already has to deal with the artist formerly known as Ocho, you can't just throw T.O. in there. Smart move. Well, if Bryant is healthy. If he isn't then they might as well take a chance on Owens.

4) Chiefs Add Thomas Jones
Nice addition by the Chiefs! Jamaal Charles is obviously the man in KC now, but Jones is definitely going to be able to help them. The Jets WILL regret choosing L.T. over Jones.

5) Redskins Sign Larry Johnson
Clinton Portis and Larry Johnson working out of the same backfield?? Man, if this was 2005 it would be on!

6) Dolphins Bring Back Chad Pennington
Smart move I say. Chad Henne is the man in Miami, but it'll be good for the youngster to have a proven veteran behind him (no homo). He also knows that if he doesn't play well he could get pulled quicker with Pennington back there oppose to Pat White or Tyler Thigpen.
