Apparently Dalvin Cook isn't too happy with the workload he has with Jets. I'd toss a third rounder for him. He might be a Aaron Jones Jr type at this point in his career. It would allow the offense to keep a consistency between Jones and Cook. Whereas with Dillon I think the blocking scheme has to change and so does the offense.

What do you billions of fans think?

What did he expect? He knew he was going to be working with Hall. Dude is a stud in the making. That team is loaded. They are just missing a QB.

According to PFF the Vikings have the best run blocking team in the NFL. Lions are 4th and Falcons are 6th.

A bit to my surprise, Packers run defense is 19th best, I thought it would be much further down. Though there is a pretty big jump between 17th and 18th.

The big benefit though would be giving the Packers (potentially) a decent running game which will help evaluate Jordan Love. Right now it's poop on top of poop so they can't really evaluate him too well.

Cook stated his frustration is with a reduced role, not lack of winning. That's why I posed the question.

Yes, we do value our draft choices....I would hope so anyway

We have too much money tied up in running backs now

A decent running game is predicated on a decent line. Average backs can run well behind good lines. I don't want a great back disguising our deficiencies, I want to lay them bare.

I think he selected teams based on pay, thought he could put up a good amount of yardage and have a chance at a championship. What the thought was the best combination of the three, probably leaning heavily on his pay.

Ironically, he might of been much better signing with his home town team that he wanted to, in the Miami Dolphins

Martha Careful (3h) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.

beast (4h) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...

beast (4h) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered

wpr (6h) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.

wpr (6h) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.

wpr (6h) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.

Zero2Cool (8h) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?

Martha Careful (10h) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

Mucky Tundra (17h) : FG to make it academic

Mucky Tundra (17h) : and there's the dagger

beast (18h) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State

Mucky Tundra (18h) : Notre Lame getting rolled

Martha Careful (20h) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond

Mucky Tundra (20h) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh

Mucky Tundra (20h) : Oh snap!!!

Zero2Cool (20h) : Even Stevie Wonder can see that.

Zero2Cool (20h) : Nah, you see Lions OC leaving to be HC of Bears is directly related to Packers.

Mucky Tundra (20h) : ohhhhhhh Zero is in TROUBLE

packerfanoutwest (20h) : Zero, per your orders, check Bearshome, not packershome

Zero2Cool (23h) : Then he'll land with another team and flourish.

Zero2Cool (23h) : Ben going to Bears. He'll be out in 3 years.

Mucky Tundra (23h) : what's so funny?

Zero2Cool (23h) : BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Zero2Cool (23h) : Bears are finalizing a deal to hire Ben Johnson as their head coach. (via @tompelissero )

Mucky Tundra (20-Jan) : Looks like Lions OC Ben Johnson is going to be the Bears coach

Mucky Tundra (20-Jan) : TD but another failed 2 pt conversion!

Mucky Tundra (20-Jan) : Ravens still alive, but barely

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : Or not...BUT THAT CATCH BY NACUA

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : WE MAY HAVE BEEN PREMATURE KANATA

TheKanataThrilla (19-Jan) : Time to make dinner

TheKanataThrilla (19-Jan) : Ouch!!!! Dagger for the Eagles

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : DAGGER

TheKanataThrilla (19-Jan) : pass plays

TheKanataThrilla (19-Jan) : Seems some of their passes are too deep. Reminds me of MLF as well.

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : Oren Burks with a clutch pass break up...I will now light myself on fire

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : a run on 2nd down and 17 from McVay? So that's where MLF gets it from!

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : Do or die time for the Rams

TheKanataThrilla (19-Jan) : Kicking field goals are impressive

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : Oh that might be a backbreaker

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : That's what I thought too, just wasn't sure

TheKanataThrilla (19-Jan) : Kicking doesn't make much sense

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : If the Rams score a TD on the upcoming drive, they go for 2, right?

TheKanataThrilla (19-Jan) : Stafford is pretty good with 4th quarter comebacks. I would like to see it.

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : YUGE stand by the Rams D there
