It's just like the Manning years. Indy will keep on trucking regardless of who's around Luck. That shit show is a one-man team and always will be. Did I mention **** the Colts? |

Yes, there have been various poison pills used over the years. The NFL then reacts by prohibiting them. Curtis Martin to the Jets, that guard that the Vikings stole from SEattle (was it Hutchinson?), and a couple others over the years. Heck, Patriots used one to help get Welker. Miami was going to protest, and then the Pats and Dolphins negotiated to sweeten the pot and Miami went away "happy". They didn't really realize what they had though because they only used a transition tag on him.

Well, that's sort of the problem for them -- they are TOO MUCH of a one man team. Until they can get more talent around LUck, and on defense, they are going to stay "pretty darn good" but keep getting curb stomped by the elite teams.

Yes. And that is NOT a poison pill. That's just making it awkward for the other team to match due to salary cap implications that aren't inherently unfair (unlike Martin to Jets, and that Seattle guard to the Vikings).

Right, it was Hutchinson. Seattle also had Walter Jones at the time, so the poison pill was ridiculously targetted at Seattle not matching.

Interesting that apparently the Curtis Martin type poison pill is not banned. Quote:

I wouldn't trade 1 first for Dez Bryant.
There are 2 situations that aren't being reported where Dez is involved that if either gets out, he will immediately be out of the league. |

The police have been to his house 6 times in the last year.
He is lucky that Jerry has thrown a shitton of resources toward shutting it down and there's a reason JJ is reluctant to sign him to a big deal with big guarantees. |

And what are the 2 situations that would have him thrown out of the league that no one is reporting?
