We will see. It is too early to tell if Miles Austin is the real deal or not. I will say this, he was a hot commodity late in the free agent period even though he received a first round restricted free agent tender from Dallas. The NY Jets and Rex Ryan brought him in for a visit and was very tempted to give up a first round pick to sign him. In the end they decided against it.

The same thing has happened to Steve Smith of the Giants. He started out the season as the top WR in football, but hasn't had a TD or more than 70 yards recieving since week 4.

You're right it was a 2nd round tender. I don't even think there is such thing as a 1st round tender for restricted free agents. My mistake.

Ya gotta rip Kolb in this thread? Really???

But yeah, this kid is going to have a l-o-o-o-o-o-n-g day on Sunday night.

Just hope we can keep Witten contained.

Thank you Phillies!!!

Not really sure where Kolb fits into this , but Austin is not going to have the easy success he's had the last few weeks. If he gets real frustrated do you think he'll pull a T.O or an R.W? Although Roy Williams is giving it the old college try, I still think it will take two diva meltdowns to equal a T.O.

I think he's already met reality, Chris. Garrett needs to call a balanced game and keep Philly on its heels. If Dallas becomes one dimensional, then Austin will have a long day. I don't need him to be sensational...just steady, e.g., 5 catches, 80 yards, 1 TD.

Kevin Kolb fluke stretch,

LOL
you're such a jackarse. so Austin is a fluke?
like avant has no talent huh?

you should really give up football and look for something you actually have a clue about. maybe living with mom way too long?
there has got to be a forum for this, you'd fit right in.

good luck

Avant had one catch last week.

You're like a puppet on a string with the Kolb comment.

Does this count for one, merv?
OR light hit my head and gave me a concussion
I should have swerved but for purposes of discussion
does this count as a hit on an Eagle QB
one thats in the record book to boot
not even moot

As I agree Miles Austin is a fraud... Kevin Kolb is going to be the real deal in this offense. He plays responsible, can throw the short ball, and can manage the offense.

Sure, want to keep count? Anytime you want. Your side ALWAYS loses that, Merv learned.

PS, mine was a joke. Kind of obvious.

LOL, I put it just for you, and you came like a good trained pet.

We don't need analogies using your mother either, not very nice.

Funny, the only person to mention McNabb, you.
