Just Wondering...

...what does "inaccurate" mean in this case? Does it mean TC has the wrong day, or TC is just dead wrong on the issue?

"...a league source familiar with the Revis situation characterized a Twitter post from Dallas Morning News columnist Tim Cowlishaw reporting a deal might be announced [B]THAT SOON[/B] as "inaccurate.""


To me it sounds like political speak to side step the question without saying "No Comment". I'm a little surprised there was no follow up, that I know of, by the reporter on the use of "that soon" and "inaccurate".

Sounds like the terms must be reviewed and it will take a few days to confirm both deals

Cowlishaw seems pretty adamant about this one, that gives me hope that where there's some smoke, there's some fire. Obviously nobody else in the business seems to think that's the case, but maybe Cowlishaw just has better sources. Or maybe, I'm just too gullible because I want this all to be over. lol

Yeah, it could be a product of wishful thinking.

BUT, like I said above, beatwriters ARE NOT going to get correct information from the Jets and Team Revis on this because of the media blackout.

So I think it's stupid that Manish, Cimini, Ventras, etc. are contacting the Jets or Team Revis for confirmation. THEY ARE NOT GOING TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH. That's what a media black out is.

So, if they want to get real info they need to look elsewhere.

Tim got his info from a 3rd party, I'm pretty sure of it.

So the consensus out is that Tim Cowlishaw's source is in fact, involved with HBO, and for a guy as well respected as Tim, there has to be something there, i for one agree him, but am being cautiously optimistic.

Seems like the other marquee insiders are standing behind Cowlishaw. None have confirmed the info, but they all have refused to dismiss it.

Exactly more the reason why it has to be an HBO source, no other reporters (National, and Local) have gotten information from the Jets or Revis camp, but then again Schefter and King,Mort, dont want to deny it.

[QUOTE=djr44;3694134]I have felt from day 1 that after the 2nd pre-season game the Revis negotiations would really begin. The jets have too much invested in this season not to have REVIS. If we can sign Mangold as well it would be a sick week. It's going to be interesteing what Revis ends up with I'm guessing 13 mill a season with big signing bonus...and at least 35-40 mill guaranteed.

$13 million a year for ten years is still way too much for a CB no matter who he is, unless there is substantial funny money at the end.

I'm guessing somewhere between 10 and 12 a year, with his up front monies, and some guarantees that will make him happy and won't cripple the team from making their moves.
