Tue, 18 Sep 2007 13:00:16 -0700

Jay Glazer, of FOXSports.com, reports the Atlanta Falcons have agreed to terms with unrestricted free-agent QB Byron Leftwich (Jaguars) on a two-year deal that could be worth up to $7 million, according to sources. Leftwich will likely be given the opportunity to compete for the starting job.

I just hope they don't expect Leftwich to solve thier sack issues.

Oh, that's hilarious. GC references are always $.



Gotta hand it to Atlanta. They sure know how to manage that QB position.

Falcons | Team lobbying for a new ball
Tue, 18 Sep 2007 11:35:10 -0700

The Atlanta Falcons are lobbying to have the ball switched to a bottle of Xenedrin when the Falcons offense takes the field. Unrestricted free-agent QB Byron Leftwich (Jaguars) will not be in the know on this matter until the first snap of Sundays game where he is expected to see the weight loss suplement and immediately throw it hard toward the end zone, according to a source. If the NFL does not approve of the change in game ball then they are expected to make an attempt at moving Leftwich to defensive tackle, arming the linebackers with Snicker's bars to hurl at the opposing quarterback.

I prefer going against Harrington than Leftwich.

He's not that bad.

I'm not a big fan but I respect him. I remember the game he played in college where his lineman were carrying him to the line of scrimmage because he was hurt.

[HoustonFrog]

I'm happy he has overcome his struggles since his days on Different Strokes. Here is a good picture when Arnold got to meet Billy Zabka....ahhhh...Chad Pennington

Really? I think we're fine if AJ needs to sit another week with Lefty in there. He's one of the few guys we own.

[Texan_Bill]

I getta make my first start in a week and a half against the Texans??

[gtexan02]

How soon would we expect to see him out there? I mean, he missed all of TC/preseason

I would much rather face Joey than Byron, personally

[Texan_Bill]

Given our track record against Sandwich, it wouldn't bother me - whoever started.

[TexanExile]

There might be a nice familiarity factor if Manwich started. The Texans D certainly hasn't been scared of him in the past. But I doubt he's starting by then, if at all.

I know. My pic above was the only good one I could find of Heftwich making a goofy face and I loved it with Pennington.

Oh shoot, there are a lot of pics with a goofy look on his face. He's a googler's dream for images.
