Re: Falcons to sign veteran Stecker

One week signing I'm sure. Dirty tricks won't do the dirty birds any good.

Meh....nothing dirty about it. We've been known to do the same thing before. Steck was a good guy here, always took the role he was given and never complained. Was a solid contributor. I wish nothing but the best for him.

 

[SAINTSFAN]

Of all the RBs available, they pick up Stecker? Are they that desperate to pick his brain? Do they really think he can help them?

 

[boutte]

Why hasn't anyone signed Deuce?

 

[ThisIsNewOrleans!]

I like Steck and wish him well but..... Get ready for the pain come Monday...

 

[Chinook]

Here is how the conversation went:

Mike Smith: "So if we sign you, anything you can tell us about the Saints will be helpful."
Stecker: "No problem, I'll tell you everything you need to know"
Mike Smith: "OK, just sign here..."
Stecker after he signs: "You're screwed, just forfeit now...where's my check?"

Atlanta signs Stecker

I know they needed a replacement, but doesn't this seem to happen every once in a while? Dirty bird tricks, I say!!

That's right, only we're allowed to do it. lol

stecker will be a huge help or he wouldnt be signed, he will recognize our formations and be able to tell the defense what coverage to be in., but at home we will mix up the snap like the giants and they will have trouble getting a pass rush

this is a completely different offense from years past. i don't see stecker being able to give them anything that film study won't.

Did you miss the part where his wife is an heiress? This is a "want to" not a "need to". He wants to play while he still can. It won't be much longer till he can't at all. If we were having a different type of year, I might not like this but I like Stecker so, eh, whatever.

I did miss that. And actually I was thinking more about his time is short and not so much a Chuck Grant "I have children to feed" standpoint.

Hate to say it, but I still like Stecker, and I wish him well (just not this week). guys got a lot of heart.

^^^^^^^^

The Falcons are just trying to figure out where the Saints buried all those awards from '06.
