June 11th, 2009 · No Comments

By Bob Cunningham
Of all the positional battles that take place in the offseason, none captivate us more than that of the quarterback battle.

Aaron Kampman has been a pro bowl DE for the Packers for several years. Now because the coaching staff has decided to go to the 3-4, Kampman will be asked to play outside linebacker.

The Ravens have reworked their O line.

By PFC Cardinals Writer Kelley Smelser
I lobbied pretty hard for Beanie Wells, Edge was maybe the best in history at what he does well and many Card fans undervalue those abilities. What Edge is the best at Wells lacks: reading, calling the protection, blocking and providing the out-let. The players including Kurt Warner, the front [...]
