"I'm smart. I'm literate. He's the opposite of those things."
Former Iowa Hawkeye A.J. Edds was recently signed by the Indianapolis Colts to bolster their linebacker depth. The Indy Star listens in as Edds holds court on fellow teammate and friend Pat Angerer:
Asked the difference between himself and Pat Angerer, A.J. Edds didn't hesitate.
"Well, he's short and he's ugly," the former Greenwood High School standout said Thursday. "I'm tall and a good-looking guy. I'm smart. I'm literate. He's the opposite of those things."
Angerer was in the vicinity of Edds and couldn't help but get an earful. He stopped and turned.
"I didn't trash you at all, man," Angerer said.

Hopefully for AJ
He can make the same impact Pat has made. Angerer has been an animal as of late.

Indeed
He’s the leading tackler in the NFL right now

Did not know that. That's awesome.

And it's not even close
Angerer has 42 tackles on the season. Sean Weatherspoon of Atlanta is second…with 31.

It's a Big Ten fest.
Angerer, then former PSU teammates Bowman and Lee. Lee is supposedly keeping Dallas afloat almost singlehandedly. But I wouldn’t know because I don’t watch the NFL anymore.

Lee has been a godsend for the Dallas D.
He has 2 pick in 3 games and a number of big tackles.

The Colts
Had been my second NFL team for some years…but then once I started at Iowa, and now that there are so many former Hawks in the organization…
Also, Angerer and Edds back together again? Pretty sure the Colts will win the Superbowl this year. Book it.

These guys absolutely need to do a buddy cop show in the offseason.
Oh wait, Dallas Clark has show business connections!

Yes! Two football players, teammates in both college and NFL, are framed in a doping scandal
and banned from the league by a corrupt commissioner, so they decide to become private detectives. While good friends, the two are an odd-couple, always getting on each other’s nerves and cracking jokes at the other’s expense.
Bonus: they have a falcon named Herky which is outfitted with a wireless radio and camera and trained to conduct surveillance and occasionally dive-bomb the bad guys.
Double-bonus: they have a sexy assistant who is occasionally recruited to help them with their cases. They hit on her constantly but she is immune to their advances.
Triple-bonus: their obligatory cool car is a black camaro with gold trim.
Dallas Clark guest stars as a serial killer with a penchant for necrophelia.
Yes, we need a hard-ass (and hot) lady detective who is always breaking their balls.
Also a grizzled captain who lays down the law from time to time but has a soft spot in his heart for these lunkheads. Probably a young unknown for the former, for the latter…nobody better than J.K. Simmons.
This show pretty much has to be set in San Diego, right? Needs a warm-weather location to get lots of T&A in every episode, plus everybody knows LA doesn’t have a pro football team, and Miami has been done (twice, at least).

Can we call it "AJ and the Angerer" ?

I was thinking thinly veiled pseudonyms.
Pat Angerer = Jon Wrath, or Bob “Madman” Madden.
AJ Edds = TJ “Dirty” Deeds
That's awesome
Since they’re private eyes they wouldn’t have a “grizzled captain”, but maybe there’s a veteran detective in the homicide department who was an Alumni of “FICTIONAL MIDWEST UNIVERSITY” and he gives them help on their investigations. The first season will be about them adjusting to life outside the NFL and solving hilarious crimes until the last 3 episodes when everything starts to tie back in to their wrongful suspension and the corrupt commissioner who is out to increase head injury and create an army of zombie-like warriors…to far?
Yeah, I was think their interaction with the captain would be more like in Psych or Monk
They cross paths from time to time during the investigation so there are a few turf wars to sort out but ultimately everyone is on the same side…usually. But I like where your head is at with the season story arc.
Episode ideas: NFL equipment manager smuggling cocaine inside footballs and tackling dummies (tries to pin it on guest star Nate Kaeding but Mad Dog and Dirty are wise to his scheme)
Billionaire owner is implicated in trophy wife’s death (but Dog & Dirty discover it’s actually his son who resents his father’s control of his life and the organization). Guest star Jerry Jones
Romance blooms with an exotic NFL cheerleader but her disturbing past comes back to haunt her as she is embroiled in a human trafficking ring. Dog & Dirty to the rescue!
Labor unrest threatens to wipe out the NFL playoffs. Dog & Dirty brought in to expose collusion among owners, complicity with corrupt union boss. Evil commish = Kurtwood Smith; Union boss = Dennis Haysbert
Hell, a monkey with a crayon could write this stuff. It’s a can’t-miss concept, people!
