Championship?

Anytime your inclination is to say something like "I don't know anything about this, but... " then you should probably rethink it.

All that matters! The DT Market seems to be a lucrative one this season. I'd argue with a 1yr deal, he might have been able to squeeze 5/yr out of someone. Guys like Rankins (1yr $9,750,000) and Rakeem Nunez-Roches (3yr, $12,000,000) got paid well. Jets are about to pay Quinnen Williams big big money.

He made a difference when he was able to get on the field.

..and yet the executives who made all the bad decisions solider on..

I've had a list of cars for about 20 years that let me know the person driving them was 100% a douchebag. The list used to be 1 car long: Infiniti. Now Tesla has been added to the list. Also since this is about Rodgers.. I feel like somehow he drives both at once to be a double douchebag.

Browns really screwed the Ravens hard. No one is giving up 2 1sts to hand him a deal like that.

Can you be propelled to last place in the division?

Yea, look at all the superbowl winners in the top of the 10 compared to the bottom 10. You're on to something here. KC being at number 1 tells us all we need to know.

Bills fans do not make better decisions than the guys running or coaching the team and often make much worse decisions, but get to forget all of their worst decisions and ignore that the people in charge don't get to make 1 specific decision and have to make many decisions all predicated on various factors that fans may or may not be aware of..

The Pipeline is Panthers -> Bills -> Giants He already screwed it up by getting drafted directly to the Bills which is why he sucks..

How long until the "Jamison Crowder Bills made a big mistake" thread?

That's outside everyone's comfort zone.

..and what happened next?

..and what are they doing this offseason to ensure they're mentally prepared for a full season this time around? Also.. it didn't 'happen' in the playoffs. You can quibble about when it started, but by the bye week it was pretty apparent that something was not right.

You have very loose definition of good. He's also been a problem child. There's a reason the Jets let him go when it's not their MO to accommodate trade requests from unhappy players.

So the players feel like they didn't show up.. what are they doing about it?

I was hoping for the Giants so half of this board's heads would implode

Solid pickup, but I still contend the line is more important and that no back 'solves' the problem on his own.

I only accept apologies in cake or pie.

It's like you have no idea that you should never let facts get in the way of a good crusade.

That's his point..

I don't think it was just the cincy game. That game was a culmination of the season after the bye week where even if they did manage to win.. the team seemed off and prone to fits of futility for relatively long stretches of games. Whether it was Allen's elbow, the massive amount of drama around the team, the weight of the massive expectations, injuries, etc.. we'll never really know, but they weren't right for a long time. There was an increasing frustration for me (and I suspect many other fans) around the continued deep shots with what seemed like no strategy to it such as backing off the defense and running or throwing short. Throw in that for 2 years in a row they've been incapable of sticking with the running game even when it was working or the sensible thing to do. The impressively bad execution at screen passes. A lot of things just didn't make sense and without any real explanation for it.. it became a flashpoint when those things blew up in the playoffs.

Yes, and the whole 1.5 seconds Allen has to get rid of the ball and the initial contact for Henry and Cook 1-2 yards in the backfield!
