Show me the chronicle article. This article was in the truth and rumors section. I can easily see this happening...but we have to find a trading partner for David Carr we like....AND sign Jake Plummer.

Has Jake been released by the Broncos? Have we set up a trade between the Broncos and us for him? If he becomes a FA he has to want to come here...he could go somewhere else for a starting job for more money and not have to compete with sage...

just a lot of questions still and untill I see more concrete evidence i will take this with a grain of salt.

Anybody see on ESPN this morning those senior drills? Drew Stanton looked pretty accurate in the first drills...i didn't get to see any more qb stuff though...hope he's there in the 3rd for us????

CNNSI is reading more into it than what there is so far. They're going off the same article that we read yesterday.

I'm okay with Carr being traded, but I wish Sage would be given the job, and another vet brought in to back him up.

We don't know for sure Sage's ability. You can't just say.."Here Sage...the offense is yours". When Plummer comes in, him and Sage will battle it out for the starting job. Plummer im sure is better than Sage and he knows the playbook already.

It was a mis-worded rumor from the Chronicle that CNNSI decided to put on their "rumor" section. Talk about a website taking an article out of context. Now it's obvious how words from 4-5 different people end up translating to "it's going to happen."

Psst! A UFO might land on I-10 pass it on! What a waste of mb space.
 
Is this a fact: No.
Is the paper the GM of the Texans: No.
Is this how the world will learn of Carr's fate, in a blog?: No.
Will I give Justice any credibility: HEEE-LLLL NO.

Thanks for clearing it up for me.

i'm not against this happening though at all. I don't think Plummer or Carr are long term answers for us so whatever will help us the next 1-2 years and be cheaper...lets do it. as well as helping our team/ new qb develop...thats key...i dont want either to hold our team back from growing/improving.

justice is a joke. he said the astros were ready to trade roy oswalt to baltimore and said that mclane ordered lidge to be traded.
 
Reporters should do whatever makes them more money within legal reasoning.
 
One thing I cannot stand about 610 any more is how many comercials they play during there show and the rest of the time maybe about 20% of the show they acually talk about sports. I switched to 790 bc fewer comercials and more sport talk

Notice Anna Megan ius attached at McClain's hip these days. I am SURE it's because of the sports opinions and views she adds.
 
In an article just yesterday It seems Plummer leaving is still up in the air.

Notebook: Shanahan on Plummer

Coach: 'Nothing is Closed' on Plummer Return

Jake Plummer
Quarterback Jake Plummer was releived of starting duties with five games left in the season and is expected to weigh his options around the league. However, Head Coach Mike Shanahan said the door is not closed on a possible return for the 10-year veteran. PHOTO: RYAN McKEE / RICH CLARKSON AND ASSOCIATES

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Quarterback Jake Plummer made no excuses when he was demoted from the starting spot with five games left in the 2006 season.

He also made no effort to contradict the notion that rookie Jay Cutler was taken with the 11th pick in the 2006 draft to be the quarterback of the future.

Still the common thought around football this offseason is where Plummer, who is entering his 11th season and went 40-18 as the Broncos starter, will end up at the start of 2007.

It could be Denver.

Head Coach Mike Shanahan said the "nothing is closed" in regard to Plummer staying in Denver. If the quarterback wants to remain, likely as a backup, he can.

The coach acknowledged, however, that Plummer -- who was unavailable for comment Tuesday -- would likely prefer to be a starter somewhere else.

He also said the team has not set a deadline to decide Plummer's fate.

"There's really not a target date," Shanahan said at his year-end press conference. "I am sure Jake would like to be a starter in the National Football League. He's 40-18 as a starter and there should be a number of teams that want to take a look at him as a starter and give him a great opportunity to show what he can do. We'll just have to wait and see."

The team can also release or trade Plummer.

Was that before or after he gave him an extension? Reporters should stick to reporting the news, not making it.

about a month after. justice said that the astros offered oswalt when it was widely rumored peter angelos asked for oswalt after GM purpura had all but sealed the deal for tejada.
 
Darn Darn Darn, y'all just ruined my day.
Oh well at least I can go home and drink this one off!

you probably arent talking about that joke of a morning show they have then. davies northeast accent is unbearable and dukes is a one trick pony (talking about #8). zierlein and granato get off topic, but i'd listen to them over davies/dukes anyday.

No this is during the day when 610 is on with TB. I would much rather listen to things that are going on in my city IMO

Nobody's mentioned him, but what about Jared Zabransky late in the draft? He's a proven leader on the field and he comes from a winning team (Boise State). What do y'all think? I think this guy's gonna be a surprise to whatever team drafts him.

I think he has a chance to do well in the NFL.
 
Not a rumor:

Rosenfels still has his cast on his broken hand.

I didn't see him, but he was interviewed by the Sports Chics, an all female sports radio show in Tampa Bay. I met with them for a while, and they were asking how he broke his hand because he still had a cast on it.

They were super impressed by him--very articulate guy.
 
All the Carr/Plummer trade rumors have started with the Chronicle. Other than Kubiak saying "Jake's still got some good football left him" once, nothing, absolutely nothing has come from Texans about Jake Plummer.

The Plummer/Kubiak connection is obvious. But so much bandwidth wasted over this .... Jake is still a Bronco and Carr is still a Texan.

Until the Texans report a change in the status quo, things like this happening are just a figment of McClain's imagination..... Perhaps he thinks if people start believing it, it will happen. I have no idea why he insists on this stance.... He's gonna look awful goofy if it doesn't happen....
 
Can a mod please change the title of this thread since it is clearly speculation at this point.

I almost spit soda all over my computer when I saw the title, I thought something for sure had taken place.
 
I hope something happens and it does'nt drag on .

It is refreshing not to get a negative rep for saying something that's not swell about the QB .

Mort was reporting on ESPN earlier that they are looking to deal too. Just from what the gained through McNair's statements.

He also said that if Rosenfels had been healthy he would have started a couple of the last games.

You should check out her myspace page. She (or whoever) has a bunch of videos of her and McClain.

They're a 'cute couple'. :winky: beauty & the beast?
 
My cousin called me from Grapevine, Texas and said that the ESPN Radio in Dallas, that they want Carr, or would not mind having him. They say he is good, just the Texans suck.
