It didn't take long for T.O. to find a new home. The Buffalo Bills and Terrell Owens have agreed to a one-year, $6.5 million deal, sources told ESPN.com's John Clayton on Saturday. The Bills are planning a news conference 6:15 p.m. Saturday. The controversial wide receiver was cut by the Dallas Cowboys late Wednesday.

just shocking. Trent Edwards is average at best. And Buffalo does not get national attention.

And now a public service announcement from your friend, Plaxico Burress

Titans -4

torontocoltsfan — Mon, 20 Oct 2008 21:37:05 -0000

The opening Vegas line line has Tennessee minus 4 .

I can see alot of public money jumping on the titans being at home and seeing the lopsided results for both teams in week 7.

I'll gladly take the colts +4 or more. If I recall correctly the last time the colts were vegas underdogs was the pats game last year when new england was favoured by 4.5 I believe.

This is the game to watch next week.

Sunday September 7th 2008 8:15pm

Dallas Clark Franchised

After failing to reach a long-term agreement with Dallas Clark, the Indianapolis Colts placed the franchise tag on their tight end on Tuesday.

Negotiations with Clark, whose contract voided after the 2007 season, heated up toward the end of the season, but without resolution. The Colts instead reached agreement on a five-year, $37.5 million contract with safety Bob Sanders, the NFL's Defensive Player of the Year. Talks with Clark resumed in the past week, but with no deal in sight, the Colts felt it necessary to designate him as their franchise player.

The one-year franchise tender for a tight end is $4.522 million. If any team tries to sign him, they would have to surrender two first-round draft choices, which is unlikely. Clark is the second tight end to be franchised this offseason. The Eagles did the same with L.J. Smith.

The Colts and Clark have until mid-July to try to reach a long-term deal. With the franchising of Clark, six players have been given the franchise designation before Thursday's deadline. Any team wishing to franchise or transition a player has to record that transaction by 4 p.m. ET Thursday.

Obvious move. i think a 4 Million cap hit is well worth clarks presence.

More Spygate?

well here we are a day before Super Bowl XLII, and we have a new report alledging the patriots taping the Rams back in 2001 before their first super bowl victory. It was a stunning upset over the heavily favored rams. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3226465
I'm not sure what to make of this story, the timing of it certainly seems planned.
"An unnamed source has claimed a New England Patriots employee secretly videotaped the St. Louis Rams' pre-game walkthrough the day before Super Bowl XXXVI, the Boston Herald reported Saturday. According to the report, an unnamed source close to the team during the 2001 season said that following the Patriots' walkthrough at the Louisiana Superdome, a member of the team's video staff stayed behind and taped the Rams' walkthrough -- a non-contact, no-pads practice at reduced speed in which a team goes through its plays."
