DMD Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Which player will announce their retirement first? None have said they are going to retire in the off-season but all are subject to rumors and speculation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgcoach Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 I think Gannon is the most likely to go of all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darin3 Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 I think Gannon is the most likely to go of all. 663846[/snapback] Agreed. His injury isn't anything to mess around with (read: paralysis). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egret Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Gannon. The other four have a shot at playing next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocknrobn26 Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Rice!!!! The man is shot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolverines Fan Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Probably Gannon. That neck injury thing is obviously very serious. Wasn't there a Pats QB...Grogan, I think...who retired because of neck injury issues? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puddy Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Gannon. I would have said Emmitt but he's afraid Barry's waiting for him to retire to come back and play five years to steal the record Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skylive5 Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Gotta be Gannon. Smith, Rice, and Favre will never retire. You'll have to drag them away and they will be kicking and scratching all the while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swampnuts Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Gannon is done, you just don't mess around with an injury like that. I'm going to go out on a limb and say Favre before Emmitt. I don't see the fire in Brett's eyes to go back out prove the critics wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retrograde assault Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Gannons gone cause he needs a new neck and their hard to come by. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chargerz Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 (edited) It's gotta be Gannon. If he's smart, he'll walk away. Being in the NFL limelight isn't worth paralysis! :eek: Edited January 21, 2005 by Chargerz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grits and Shins Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Like most of the rest I believe Mr. Gannon will come to his senses and realize that it his health that is at serious risk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big John Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Steve McNair? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursa Majoris Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Could have widened the poll to include: Eddie George Marshall Faulk Tim Brown - did he already quit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chavez Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Steve McNair? 663972[/snapback] Not a bad write-in. I don't see Favre hanging it up this year. Next year, maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muck Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Priest Holmes could have been a write-in as well... That said, I voted for SDavis...for no particular reason... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgcoach Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Steve McNair? 663972[/snapback] He is also a good pick, if he was a choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolverines Fan Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Steve McNair? 663972[/snapback] Good suggestion. It could happen. I read somewhere that the Titans are having salary cap trouble and some players like Mason could be released. If the team loses some good players, I wonder if McNair will stay around.

T_bone65 Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 I would have to say Gannon for sure, after that neck injury he would be crazy to try and come back and play again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piranha Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Gannon Rice Smith Favre McNair Davis In that order Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Swerski Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Gannon and Eddie George are toast. Davis may have some gas left, but will have to take a HUGE paycut. Favre and McNair are still capable. Surprisingly, both Emmitt and Rice are still effective (Jerry as a slot receiver, that is). They'll both play until their knees turn to Jell-O.

JoJoTheWebToedBoy Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 What a bunch of Geezers. Gannon McNair George Davis Farve Smith and Rice will never call it quits. They will have to be fired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd1 Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 All of them should retire except Davis and Favre. Favre is the only one still on top of his game and with a better defense, he could win a Super Bowl easily. IF (big IF), Davis' knee is 100% again, he could still be a good back. I think Faulk is done too, his knees are shot. Sad to see him go, I think other than Barry Sanders, he's the most electrifying RB I've ever had the pleasure of watching. I remember a college game where he did a cartwheel to avoid hitting the ground and continued running. Amazing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
