  1. Is this the guy who couldn't decide if he cared or not and would just shrug and jog to the bench while Brady tried to peel his mangled carcass off the turf after taking yet another sack/hit? One game I was watching Brady just laid there for like 10 seconds, probably cursing his decision to come back.
  2. I also noticed he seemed not as smooth and polished, especially as the night wore on. I just assumed he had a few pops backstage. Lots of refreshments at events like that. It's a big party.
  3. I'd hate to be all logical and stuff, but if Mayer is obviously so much better then why didn't anyone else draft him? Every team could use a great TE. I'll freely admit that I don't know or watch college football, so the draft is just fun to watch for me but I have no rooting interest other than the Bills getting a guy the size of a Tesla at some point.
  4. I know almost nothing about college football and have never heard of this guy until tonight, but I was excited for the pick because of the whole "the league deserves what it gets for letting Kincaid play with Josh Allen" comment on NFL Network. So I'm happy with the pick! I would have also loved a 340+ pound DT but there is still time for that later in the draft!
  5. glad to see Lamar came off the guarantees, because really, once that deal is signed he gets paid either way unless they cut him or he agrees to take less in a restructure Only way they straight up cut him is if his career totally implodes, which I do not see happening. Thus, he's getting all that $$ whether it's guaranteed or not.
  6. the way these draft day rumors seem to go Hopkins will re-sign with Arizona for 7 years, 200 million.
  7. Getting Hopkins would be amazing! Diggs + Hopkins + Playoff Gabe?!
  8. I think a lot of it is just the enormous desire that Brady had to keep playing. Most have had their fill by age 40 but it was like Brady couldn't imagine doing anything else with his life. Peyton Manning would have kept playing until he was 45 also but his neck nerve issue made it impossible
  9. I've listened to a ton of fairly length Rodgers "interviews" between Pat McAfee and Aubrey Marcus. I just find the guy interesting, not that I agree with everything he says. I've never heard him talk before about playing "into his 40's" like he did yesterday. Given that, Rodgers will play 2-3 years in NY, IMO He probably gave some sort of assurance to the Jets that he would play at least 2 seasons. People keep saying he's 40. He's not. He JUST turned 39 on December 2. So, he'll be 39 (2023) for most of this season, and 40 most of next season (2024). All the drama in Green Bay probably affected his desire to play a bit.
  10. so it's become clear that Rex's hear and soul was always with the Jets. It would be like if one of us was HC of the Bills after a lifetime of working towards it, did the best we could, and after a handful of years got fired and immediately became the HC of the Patriots or Dolphins a few weeks later.
  11. it makes the Jets games a lot more interesting, and generally makes for a better story, so I'm excited for it Either way, to be the best you've got to beat the best, and also, either way you play 2-3 playoffs games to get to the Super Bowl. There won't be cupcakes, but you also don't have to play every good team back to back to get there. In fact, if the Bills can get the #1 seed finally then it's a bye week, play the lowest seed left and suddenly you're in the AFC Title game at home.
  12. basically it's a 2nd in 2023 and a 1st in 2024 with some window dressing tossed in IMO Rodgers made some sort of commitment behind the scenes that he would play 2 years. It'll come out I'll bet (and be denied by all)
  13. honestly I never thought of Craig...
  14. As a do it all type of RB... I loved Barry Sanders too but Thurman was just as much part of the passing game as the running game
  15. Thurman Thomas was the greatest RB of all time, IMO and ahead of his time. If he played in today's game he would be unstoppable. He basically was anyways. McCoy was a very good to maybe great RB. That's the difference.
  16. you guys are just trying to torture Mike Florio at this point.. it's just mean I was worried for the poor guy when Pegula bought the Bills Ironically, I don't think it's so much that he wants Buffalo to lose the team as it is the "story" and all his articles he could write about how awful the NFL is and all the clicks he could get from furious Bills fans
  17. Every team does not need a black uniform! Cardinals colors are red and white. Same with SF: red and gold and white.
  18. From what I understand, estate taxes can be between 20% and 40% of the value of the estate, so in order for the children to own the team they would need to be able to pay a tax of well over $1 billion in cash. That's the biggest issue with the team remaining in the family sometime hopefully long, long into the future.
  19. score at least 1 point more than the Lions. Imagine that SB!
  20. IF you could get assurances from Rodgers that he would play at least 2 seasons, a 2023 2nd and a 2024 1st isn't a bad deal. As quirky as he is, Rodgers is a top 3-5 QB in the NFL still, especially when he has actual WR to throw to. On that Jets team he would be dangerous. You figure the 2024 1st would be in the high 20's, low 30's if you're the Jets. That's less of a big deal, and not that far away from their 2023 2nd rounder. If healthy, Rodgers gets you deep into the playoffs for 2 years and makes the Jets a marquee attraction. One high 2nd and a low future first is not a huge price tag for that.
  21. and the Packers... 2 teams with slightly different issues. Jets are at least just incompetent. Packers purposely do it to themselves because there is no owner to step in and squash the nonsense.
  22. IMO something weird is going on with Rodgers and the trade. Maybe he is still "undecided" behind the scenes, OR the Jets have asked for a 2 year commitment and he is still pondering that, which is holding things up. At this point it shouldn't be that hard. If the trade happens AFTER the 2023 draft then one would imagine the Jets picks would be lower in each round. Best thing for both sides is a straight up trade: picks for player. Cash and carry. Done. None of this convoluted, conditional stuff that could be all over the board.
