Willing to bet USC beats them this year; you down?

 

So this Lynch situation is getting interesting. John Clayton says there's zero truth behind the report that the Seahawks offered Lynch a huge extension ( no homo) and that Lynch hasn't been happy there for some time..doesn't like how Bevell uses him or how he tried the RB by committee approach earlier in the year. Clayton says it only got worse after they traded Harvin, Lynch's closest bud on the team. Keyshawn said Lynch even refused to get on the team bus after the trade. That goal line flub in the SB just might be the last straw..basically took SB MVP honors away from Lynch and real HOF shot.

Raiders need to bring him home..wait for Harvin to get cut by the Jets and get him too. Not the biggest fan of Harvin and his lockeroom issues, but whatever. Raiders are pretty strong in the locker room and Musgrave had Harvin in Minnesota. Package deal with those two and Julius Thomas..could impact the draft in a big way. You add Harvin and Thomas, both highly productive..they could draft Shane Ray @ #4 and help that pass rush.

 

Lol, I'm down. What would you want my avatar to change to?

 

Seahawks would have to cut Lynch, which probably won't happen, considering he is by far their best offensive player. But I'm not going to lie, get Lynch, Harvin, J. Thomas, and a big (in size) WR, and that offense would be scary.

 

Some teams I can't root for (in order)
1) Giants (and it's not even close)
2) USC
3) Raiders
4) Broncos
5) Celtics
Can't root for $C to be in a title game, anyone else in the Pac 12 sure, not $C. It's a rivalry, and I root for them to lose and lose hard.

 

Lynch and his personality are questionable.


Harvin is an automatic FUCK NO!

That bitch is too injury prone and a major problem in the locker room. The Raiders are fixing that. Why add that little dick head?
Might as well hire The Chinchilla as an adviser.

 

Or they could trade Lynch. Regardless of him being their best offensive player, the way the NFL works is QB's get paid a ton and they're about to break the bank for not only Russell Wilson, but also their other starting corner Byron Maxwell and they save a significant amount of cap space by letting Lynch go. They can just draft another back..this draft is deep with them. John Clayton believes the divorce is coming.

 

John Clayton isn't exactly the best reporter or analyst.

 

Mortensen said the same months ago and others are echoing. Rappaport got fed a load of bs.

Ready for Lynch in Oakland? USC coaches are getting it done on all levels, aye. Lol

Its the logical option. They also already have 2 good backs behind Lynch as it is..their depth is crazy. They don't even tie the ball game up at halftime without Turbin breaking that long run. And imagine that they had Forsett not long ago. Lol. Silly depth.

 

Adam Schefter is the only ESPN reporter I trust. Not Clayton and especially not Mortensen. I remember when Mortensen adamently said Mike Shanahan was going to become the next KC coach in 2009. Turns out that was never even close to remotely true.

 

USC basketball was just put on the Earth to troll me, huh? Lost in triple OT last week, tonight we lose on a buzzer beating 3.

 

Meh on Lynch to Oakland, I'll pass on that. I don't like giving RB's his age group and higher big money or picks AKA any assets. RB's shelf life is small, I'm not sure he has more than another year of elite play. If he comes cheap sure, but that isn't going to happen.

Also, I want Ken Norton Jr. to be hired as defensive coordinator.

 

well then why shut down " Lynch to Raiders " based on a non-Schefter report?

 

When? UCLA doesn't play Oregon this season
