Star isn't doing good at what he does, that's why he is being called out. You don't have to understand much about football to watch an All-22, see him getting pushed around by single blockers or never even get in the way of a running back.

Part of overall performance is not making mistakes. Tom Brady, average arm talent, doesn't make mistakes, gets paid more than Blake Bortles.

The reason guy A gets paid more then guy B is usually because guy A makes less mistakes, it's implied.

His job is like an offensive lineman; your name doesn’t get mentioned when you do good, only when you do bad. Star's name is getting mentioned because he is doing poorly. He admitted to screwing up and being responsible for two big runs, sure we all make mistakes, but he is being paid a lot of money to not make mistakes like that. I saw one play last week were half a guy turned him around, blocker was engaged with another DL, got one hand on Star and turned him around. If Vincent Taylor improves at all & Corey Liuget has anything left, don’t be surprised to see Star has a healthy scratch. This article was worthless, of course his teammates & coaches are standing up for him, this isn't a team to throw guys under the bus, but the reason his play is being called in question, is because he's getting paid $10M to play at less than replacement level

6-10 is still a possibility

Taking Murphy off the field would be best case scenario

Hopefully. This team proved it has learned how to win. Now we have to do it consistently and against good teams

Cam Newton was MVP that year

A very predictable failure at that. I think we lose to Dallas, Balt, Pitt & NE, needing to beat the Jets to win and get in coming off 4 straight losses & then payback for 2015 happens.

Completely. The Pats went ultra-conservative once Brady threw that pick. Our only chance to win was to cause turnover & they took away the opportunity for us to get a takeaway, also we play them later in the year. They got a road win without having to do or show much.

Our strength of victory is .180.

Who happen to be the best of the front 7

I'm all for moving training camp & a preseason game to Toronto (sorry Rochester)

he's not even the most overpaid pass rusher on his own team. It's criminal how terrible Trent Murphy is, I haven't seen a more non-productive pass rusher since Chris Kelsey

Move them to Montreal

It's been called Leftspin for years and they were pretty open about it. They had a countdown for when Trump wouldn't be President ahead of the 2016 election.

Absolutely, I was talking about him playing great for 3 & half quarters and being on the bench late in the 4th as we have a comfortable lead

Look like a QB that can take over a game & win

Even Paula’s on the way to the tailgate?

Not always, MOST of the time, ownership changes and not much else, unless changes NEED to be made. You don't hear about it when everything stays the same. SI has been struggling for years and hasn't been able to attract younger sports fans for almost a generation. I'm 34 and grew up waiting at the mailbox for my weekly issue of SI to come, a guy that's 24 didn't have that same experience and the Brand ”Sports Illustrated” means Nothing to him. Deadspin had at one point a vast audience; the product went in one direction to the displeasure of many of it's readers and now it's ?

I’ve actually worked in both M&A and currently in mobile advertising. If a business is printing money, smart investors leave it be and hire advisors to oversee current operations. Also, you should know better than I do that the app store is flooded with apps that can’t monetize and while they get many downloads, they aren't that profitable. Too many ads, terrible user experience. I haven't read Deadspin in years but there are articles I can cite for you saying that the only advertisers they could attract were annoying pop-ups killing any current user base.

Viewership, Clicks, & Alexa ratings had been in a steady decline (could be stale content, could be political) and their parent company Gawker got sued for all their worth for leaking Hulk Hogans sex tape & being overall terrible at journalism. if the site was seeing continued success drastic changes would not have had to be made

The fact that this thread might get moved to PPP is direct reason Deadspin died.

And that’s why their site is thriving Actual professional journalist don’t let the views reflect their work, they were all hacks and now they have no jobs

Barstool has expanded to a Brand; merchandise, podcasts, diverse content, appearances on Fox Business, celebrity endorsements, etc. while Deadspin only targeted people “triggered” by their own shadow
