Seriously though, I heard that Jax might be interested. How come they seem to have given up on Lefty?
Because he sucks, he can't stay healthy, and him and Garrard are basically the same QB (except Garrard is a bit faster runner and makes less money). Lefty hasn't done anything for them. It's time to move on.
i don't think he ever was a "super star" int he real sense, just in the fantasy/statistical sense. I know that this will raise hackles, and I know that offensive players don't play D. BUT ... with the offense that the Vikings had, playing in the conference they did, there is really no excuse for Culpepper to not have more wins under his belt. They were a mirror image of the Colts in many ways, except they played in the NFC. Colts never had a D until recently. It seemed to me Culpepper would get figured out in key games and moments, and that team always seemed like it underachieved. Lot of 8-8, 9-7 type seasons if you ask me. Culpepper fumbled a lot too.
And while they made each other, Moss had a spectacular season with cunningham at the helm, and had some good games with Frerotte if I recall. Moss is a lazy SOB, but at the same time, Oakland's QB situation was terrible too. It is a chicken and egg-type argument, but if pressed, I'd lean towards favoring Moss. After all, God himself signed him this year.
The opening scene of the movie "Saving Private Ryan" is loosely based on games of dodgeball Brian Dawkins played in second grade.
I like the idea of Culpepper going to the Ravens. With McNair there for this season, C Pep can get healthy,try to learn the system and prepare for next season. With the great D in Baltimore there won't be much pressure on him to preform. This is the team/coach who nursed Dilfer to a SB championship. Getting the most out of Duante could be doable there.
I think, therefore I am. I think fantasy, therefore I am unreal?

I'm actually hoping Atlanta gets him. Definitely better than Harrington and I think he's still got some skill left in him.
Yeah, same mistake the Dolphins made last year. Culpepper is done.

Not a bad idea. After all, Billick could probably do some interesting things if he had a healthy Culpepper.
Well if Culpepper wants to play right away his best chance is going to be with Atlanta. I don't see how the Falcons can let Vick play with the current charges against him. I think they will suspend him until he's proven innocent or guilty.
Other choices already mention as well would be the Jaguars or Ravens. Baltimore might be the best place for him as he continue to get healthy as McNair starts this year and then he can take over the next year.
