AJ....yeah if he dontinues to light it up and has a great season then it's probably time after this season. I guess I just don't expect that. He has had a few good games but this is still a new complicated system very similar to the one Eli Manning is in, and it took Eli like 3 or 4 years to get really good in it. Besides that, there are so many new coaches and players...I just think Freeman will still have some ugly games this season. It's a process and I expect more growing pains.

If he turns into Eli at some point, and they haven't extended him yet, dude can back up the Brinks truck if he hits the free agent market.

Here's to hoping Freeman pulls it off! I'll be cheering for the guy to not screw up every game of the year.

Do you really want to see him putting up MVP numbers in 2014 in a Jags, Jets, Seahawks or Cowboys uniform?
Actually the problem isnt that Freeman stinks. He is average. He puts up good numbers just often enough to make you think he is better than he is. Bad and great are convincing. But mediocre makes you live with the delusion for too many years. He is just good enough to waste our time and not good enough to get us where we want to go.

If he is let go from Tampa, it's cause he couldn't get it done. So ^^^^ isn't happening.
