NFL players should not be considered as super men

When we are talking about NFL players, we always talk in precondition that they should be perfect people since they are paid so much to play in the league. But the fact is, they are after all common human beings who make mistakes and have limites on some aspects.

Ok, if you have to argue that they are at least not as common as us average people. That just means that they should pay more attention to what they do. But as no one can avoid mistake, the same to the players. They have the talents of playing and become professional players, but a lot of us common people also have talent and professinals in some field. Talent will not make anyone immune to being human, and we all will be subject to the same human temptations.

As long as you can find an excuse for any of your mistakes, it is not necessay to be too strict with those NFL players who appear in public a bit more often than others.

Brian Westbrook's role could be further diminished this season

It is reported that Eagles RB Westbrook will be unable to take part in the rest of the Eagles’ offseason workouts. We will not see him on field until the start of the season or even later. Because he got an injury on ankle and needs a minor surgery.

Westbrook always seems to be battling a nagging injury from training camp through the end of the season. This time the ankle injury just will cause him to be absent from the season. The Eagles has drafted LeSean McCoy in the second round, so if Westbrook still can not keep healthy for long time, people will recosider his role the the team.

Texans finds a new solution to economic troubles

As the new NFL allows, the Texans found a new source of revenue in selling sponsorships on their practice jerseys.

The Texans is considering put a small sponsorship patch on each of their practic jerseys. The patch will be on the left shoulder of a jersey and no longer than 3.5-4.5 inches. If you want to get a visual effect of adding the patch to jersey, you can just pay attention to the Texans practices this week--they have already affixed the bull head logo on the players' uniform, in the same area where the patches will be on practice jerseys.

The Texans is currently discussing with several sponsors about this. If everything goes well, we may expect to see practice jerseys in late July.

Can Thomas Jones do as good job as he did last year?

First I would like to look back in what Thomas Jones did in 2008. 1,500 total yards of offense and 15 touchdowns, with a solid offense and good defense.

What happened after that?

Thomas was looking forward to a new contract. But it seemed not possible. A new rookie Shonn Greene was just joined the Jets, and was considered very qualified. But new deal or not, Thomas just participated in the Jets OTAs last Wednesday. I think he needs to do better job if he wants a new contract. Only good performance will add his value and make better contract more possible.

Rex Ryan is bringing confidence to Jets fans

As Jets new head coach, Rex Ryan is ready to bring confidence to Jets fans. His attitude is attacking, and this attitude is very contagious. Now Jet fans are saying "bring 'em on!" to the games against the Pats.

He told the media that the Jets is ready to attack any team they will face in the games.

He did not change much of the defense system, just added more blitzing, which is one of Ryan's strongpoints. Ryan is confident that blitzing will get quick pressure on the opposing quarterback.

The Jet fans is expecting a Jets seaon with head coach Rex Ryan.

Vikings learned from Dolphis Wildcat offense

The Vikings was seen on Saturday practising new offense system. Percy Harvin, a rookie WR signed by Vikings in the the first round of this year's draft, took part in the practice.

The new offense system is called Wildcat offense. It was used by the Dolphins last season and, as it was reported, is the reason for Dolphins' success last season. The Vikings seemed in the hope of improving the team by learning from the Dolphins Wildcat offense.

Kyle Orton is more likely to be Broncos Starting QB

Kyle Orton is currently facing competitiong with Chris Simms. Let's make a comparison first.

Kyle Orton, played 2 full season repectively in 2005 and 2008. His best record was in 2008, with over 2,900 yards, 18 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. In total he has passed for over 5,300 yards, for 30 TDs and 27 INTs in his career.

Chris Simms, as son of Giants great Phil Simms, was considered talented player. His best record was in 2005, when heplayed 10 games for the Buccaneers, with a record of 6-4, passing for over 2,000 yards, 10 touchdowns and seven picks. Not really good enough for an NFL QB. In total, he passed for 3,000 yards, 12 TDs and 17 INTs.

We can see easily that Orton has more advantages than Simms. So it is more likely for him to be the Broncos starting QB.

Everything goes well in the Seahawks.

In a recent OTA, the Seahawks' team was seen performing well. Everyone was in their best form, including Hasselbeck who just recovered from his back injury.

Old and young, new and veteran, it seemed that the players has improved their playing alot under the new coaches Jim Quinn. Rookie first-round pick Aaron Curry proved his talent at linebackeer and QB Matt Hasselbeck looked perfectly healthy and was learning new defense.

Every thing seems good enough for this team. We can expect its better season soon.

Allen will stay for 2 more years in Dolphins

Rosenhaus again is engaged in my blog. Again he post what he knows on his Twitter page. This time he told us that a two-year contract extention was signed between the Dolphins and its CB Will Allen. This contract extension costs $16.2 million, and $10 million had been paid as guarantee money.

Allen started his NFL career 8 years ago. His first five year was spent in the Giants, and he was signed by the Dolphin in 2006. In his total 8-year career, he has had 463 tackles, 13 interceptions and five sacks, with 168 tackles, five interceptions and four sacks had in the Dolphin.

Cincinnati Bengals are in the midst of their first three-day OTA session of the offseason, but Carson Palmer said that he won't expect Chad Ochocinco, a star WR to appear on the following activities.During a interview, Sirius NFL Radio asked Palmer whether Ochocinco will be present on the team's OTA. Palmer told that he haven't gotten contacted with Ochocinco and he was ready for Ochocinco's non-appearance on the Bengals' session of OTAs next week.

Palmer was the veteran QB of the Bengals , just returned to practice for the first time this week. He usually only commented on players in camp, especially Henry, whom who praised a lot.
