NFC South Roundup: Give Me a Season, or Give Me Roundup

PrintWell, is this the week? Will there be football? Will this be the week Saints fans get to finally find out what the front office will do about their many free agents? Will Saints fans find out what happens with Reggie? Will I stop asking questions? Let's hope the 2011 season starts this week because I'm itching for something, anything, related to football that isn't more Favre-watch.
Until those questions can be answered, we have the Roundup to get us through these tumultuous times. I've found the best of the best from other NFC South sites for your viewing pleasure. So make the jump to read version 9.0 of Da Chronic's NFL South Roundup.
Panthers News
Smitty's status as a Carolina Panther - Cat Scratch Reader
Steve Smith may grant my wishes and leave the Panthers.
Panthers Richardson: "We Will Go Wide Open" in Free Agency - Cat Scratch Reader
I would be worried, but wide open for Richardson means Ike Taylor and Terrell Owens.
NFL Teams Over Salary Cap Given Slight Reprieve with new CBA - Cat Scratch Reader
If you saw my FanShot a few days ago, you already know that the cap will likely be a soft cap this year.
Bucs News
Dear Coach Morris: Please Stop Blitzing - Evaluating the 2010 Bucs' Blitzes - Bucs Nation
Apparently, Morris isn't all that good at blitzing. I'm sure Breesus will appreciate that when he hands it off to Ingram or steps back to pass.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers Wish List - Bucs Nation
Bucs fans: Dear Santa Glazer, please give us Nnamdi Asomugha this season. We've been really good.
Santa Glazer: Ho! Ho! Ho! I hope you enjoy this nice Ike Taylor instead! He's just as good, but cheaper!
Bucs fans: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Josh Freeman was frequently blitzed, but he learned to beat the blitz - Bucs Nation
What would a Roundup be without a "Jon is worried about the Bucs" link.
Falcons News
Will The Lockout Make For Lesser Football? - The Falcoholic
This is actually a good question. Teams haven't talked to players in months, rookies haven't had any time with coaches, and some players may not have played/thought about football in months. Luckily, Brees hosted his own Saints camp and had good attendance, so Saints fans won't likely have to see that.
AJC: Justin Blalock To Price Himself Out Of Falcons Range - The Falcoholic
This article is actually a list of Falcons free agents and their likelihood of staying. So it's a must read for Saints fans.
The Falcons Will Be The Dominant NFC South Team In 2014-2016 - The Falcoholic
Look, I may get some flak for this, but I will agree that in 2-3 years, the Saints are going to be struggling not to be in the basement of the NFC South. I don't like the long term outlook of the Saints, but I disagree with the Falcons being the dominant team. Turner will be old and gone, their defense is going to be older and in need of many more pieces, and that great O-line is likely to dissolve this off season. Whereas the Bucs...just scare me.

I just want Reggie Bush resolution
And it would also be awesome if we got a surprise free agent like asomogoulyfsa.
Being the site’s foremost questioner of ingram’s talent level, I am also interested in new and awesome fullbacks to help out. This could include people who aren’t on twitter attempting to tell us what the real fans want. I’m also scared to live without Reggie bush, but the dood needs to take a paycut.

I would love for this to happen. I just don’t think it will.
Maybe MARY JANE will load up and pass the PEACE PIPE around the conference room and they’ll all get happy in a big hurry, which might just help speed up the process. - HansDat
Well
I quess: We release Reggie and half our free agents and we could make it happen. Not!

Favre-watch
Haven’t you heard the rumors that the Eagles might be interested in Favre as a backup? I of course, don’t see it happening, but I wanted to be the first to mention it in case it did.

To tell you the absolute truth, when it comes to grandpa far-va I really don't give a damn.
I used to respect him and loved to see him play. Now he’s just an understudy in a failing, off-Broadway tragedy.

how tall is Brees, for real?
Is Brady that much taller? Brees is listed at 6’ and Brady at 6’ 3" or 6’ 4"..in that photo Brady looks a good 6" taller.
That coif will do that.

Someone beat me to it.
It’s the hair!
Drew is just under 6 ft. I believe like an eighth of an inch shy of exactly 6 ft.
I don’t really agree that Brady looks that much taller here. Looks about right to me.

I’m 5’ 10" and look eye to eye with Drew. I think 6’ is stretching it.

Tall enough to flick that errant hair out of your eyes with a gentle wave of his fingers.

LOL. I’m leaning toward cp, though once I see Payton in all black on the sidelines it’s anybody’s game :)

Brees is just short of 6’…Brady is 6’4. Or as I like to call them…a pair of hobbits.
More importantly…why do all of these QB/QB photos people post after the game always look like one of them is going to try to move in for a kiss on the other?

Stop with the Bucs already
Saints will be dominant as long as Payton and Loomis are around…Good teams, like the Steelers, Pats, Ravens, Eagles et al, always find a way to remain in the upper echelon..If youth and high draft choices were the only thing that mattered, the Bills, Browns and Raiders would dominate.
I expect Saints to be an elite team for next 5 years. They have O-Line entering prime, they have redundant talent. And they will find and develop a replacement for Brees when necessary..
It starts at the top…always..which is why the Pats gave up high draft picks for Belichick years ago.
