    One thing that bugs me about this new captain thing....

    Now that I am back, I OD'ed on football this weekend. Most games talked about this new "C" that is on the jerseys of the permanent captains to promote some sort of leadership to the younger players. Well, the only QB's that I noticed that did not have the C were JP and Rex Grossman. Coincidense?

    And as far as I know, the Bills were the only team that had a punter as a captain. I don't care how good Moorman is. A punter can't be a captain of a football team.

    You realize our team sucks? Moorman is a captain because we have nobody else to give it to?

        I don't know. There are 5 or 6 on every team, and I Thought I heard that they are "permanent" assignments.

          I didn't come here to fight, I hate fighting. Life is way too short to spend it on fighting! Go fight with yourself, one of you will eventually win!

                Yeah, he was definitely a captain... we discussed that last week actually. How he had stepped up into a leadership role this season.

                I hope his off field leadership abilities are better than his on field abilities proved to be Sunday.

                  This team lacks leadership. Schobel is our higgest paid Defensive player and he doesn't want to be captain. Kelsay actually said on Sirrius that Schobel has no interest in being Captain. This is the last player that I'd want on my team.

                  Giving JP captain status is a joke. He hasn't earned it and I'd bet money that most guys don't view him as a captain. The idea that they vote on it is "cute" but not having your QB as captain would pretty much be the death nail. So it means nothing.

                  Teams win with leadership. We have none.

                      That's the "cocky-ahole" C. You wear that when you say that you can throw on Denver's secondary and they post it in their lockerroom for the week before the game as bulletin board material.

                        I'm not saying he deserved it- he certainly didn't show that he deserved it on Sunday. I'm just saying EE is wrong about him not wearing the C.

                          You obviously know better than they do.

                              That wasn't directed towards you. I was just having fun with it.

                              JP is a nice kid but I wouldn't follow him to battle. Jim Kelly is one of the bigger jerks that I have ever met but on the football field you couldn't ask for a better leader.
