QCity

We're not doomed without a QB. We're just not going to win without one. All I heard last season was how crazy Sammy would be if he had a QB like ODB.

Arizona has a chance to win two more games on it's schedule -- the two games against us. If we don't lose both those games, we are probably done. The 'yotes are truly All-Star Tankers.

Probably makes the most sense since Pettine has already done the show with NY. Plus the QB situation of course.

Arizona has dropped 17 of their last 18 games.

That was a huge home loss. Two more road games played in three days could make for a great weekend.

.857 save % last night. Looks like Arizona's secret weapon for when they play us

This is actually a pretty accurate breakdown. There are a few avenues to lower the hit next year he didn't explore (i.e. signing Gilmore long term), but it does illustrate some of the issues we'll face in the near future. More importantly, it illustrates these issues are, in fact, real -- and they won't go away by pretending Pegula has some mythical accounting powers that the other 30 billionaire owners in the league don't possess. The most glaring problem to me is that while we will be fighting to stay under the cap in the upcoming years, these figures don't allocate any future spending for anything more than a stopgap QB.

Holy crap Lindback was a beast tonight. Wowwww.

Yeah, the Isles were certainly not expected to make the playoffs this year.

Stunning

How can anyone judge a QB after 14 starts though? He was always a project coming into the NFL. QB's can get better, right? His first coach was clearly an idiot that ruined him.

Harvin fits a ground and pound offense? By that rationale, what type of offense wouldn't he fit in?

That's not true at all. They can negotiate with him until July 15th. At that time he plays out the year under the transition tag (unless another team makes an offer they refuse to match).

6 mil? Oof. I hope that's loaded with incentives.

No such animal in this era.

I hope we didn't just do something stupid out of desperation (like pay him Top 3 TE money).

I'm actually more excited that we kept him away from the Pats than I am to see him on our team.

(I would have went with George R.R. Martin)

I did not know that. Obviously, we are saving that tactic for the Arizona games.

If the Dolphins don't remove his transition tender (which they probably won't), are you guys going to bump this thread for the next 5 days? That will probably set a TBD record for "most excitement over a marginal player" since...since....ever?

Way too much hand-wringing for a guy that barely cracks the list of Top 10 TE's.

so much misinformation...

Well it does take a potential team with more cap space out of the race for him, but yeah, that could certainly happen. Also there's the possibility he never intended to leave Miami in the first place...

Wow, that's huge for us.

I thought that whole "house shopping" thing was a pretty transparent ploy to drive up his price. Why the heck would you go house shopping under the transition tag lol? So silly. I think Cleveland is a more likely destination than us -- they have much more cap space to work with.
