  1. The good WRs that have come through there have left for the same reason Lamar wants out - Roman’s offense.
  2. I wonder if his (alleged) demand for a fully guaranteed contract isn’t because of how the Ravens use him. He takes more of a beating there than he would in a more conventional offense with good receivers who can get open. You can put me down as someone who does not want to see another quality QB in the AFCE, especially on the Phins or Jest. Both are a QB away from being very competitive.
  3. I agree. He’s been phoning it in all season. The crappy Thursday night games probably sapped whatever enthusiasm he had left. Also he’s 78. Just call it a career already.
  4. Talent and Shanny. He seems to be able to elevate every QB he works with. I think Purdy’s future is as a solid backup in SF, but that’s his ceiling. Still, he could Nick Foles the 9ers to a SB this year.
  5. IIRC that skit did not mock him being a Christian, it mocked him for how vigorously he promoted that aspect of himself and how bad of a QB he was.
  6. The longer this drags on, the more power Lamar has in the situation - unless he plays under the FT and has a catastrophic injury. If he’s truly slow playing coming back from injury now, he’d certainly play games with the tag. He could wait on signing it until just prior to the regular season (or we’ll into the season) or simply refuse to sign it and demand to be traded.
  7. Tebow wasn’t mocked, his fanboys were for insisting that he was a good/great QB.
  8. That group needs some starters too. Plus putting an eventual replacement for Morse in the pipeline would be a good idea as well.
  9. Just look at all the teams that need a QB. Fields would fetch more than that. I’d love to see him in a Shanahan style offense - but not in Miami please.
  10. Dawkins, Morse, Bates, Brown and Doyle are the only OL on our roster who are not UFAs this offseason.
  11. Doubtful on using the FT on Edmunds. LB tag includes pass rushing OLBs so it is projected to be $21M in 2023. No bueno.
  12. Edmunds bet on himself and I certainly respect that. He’s gonna get paid by some team, but I don’t know that it’ll be the Bills. It’ll probably come down to how crazy another team gets and how much he wants to be here. How the season ends could play a big part too.
  13. As ticket prices rise and price out more regular fans, the amenities become more important and more lucrative. Chicago will be able to fill those seats for other sporting events, concerts, etc.
  14. Just checked it out. It’s depressing. They suck and they’re drafting 9th with a bunch of QB-needy teams drafting ahead of them. I love the “I like pie” reaction for posts though.
  15. Lovie Smith was just a one year placeholder. His job was to right the locker room, endure this horrific season and then step aside. He is being paid very well for it. By all accounts he’s very well respected in NFL circles and is considered to be an outstanding human being so I’m happy to see him go out with a W.
  16. I guess it depends on whether they like a QB in the draft more than Fields. They’re either going to trade the pick for a haul or Fields for a lesser but still substantial haul.
  17. playing with the torn meniscus rather than opting for surgery and being ready for the start of 2023 could cost Poyer a lot of money. Big tip of my cap to him being all in for a championship.
  18. The team claiming him would have his rights until the end of his contract, which is the end of the current league year in March. They couldn’t force him to play though. So either a team he wants to play for would claim him and he’d play for that team or a team he doesn’t want to play for would claim him to block him from playing elsewhere. So he’d never make it to a team like the Bills. Teams high on the waver wire would just claim him to keep him from going to a top seed. It’s a moot point anyway. The Browns will keep him on their roster this last week for the comp pick. Yeah. He has been a good player, just not close to what you’d expect from an edge that went #1 overall.
  19. Unlikely that the Browns would release him. His salary for the last game is $73k and he will net the Browns a comp pick down the line. He won’t be on the active roster for the last game so that will cost him $44k in per game roster bonus.
  20. Put his own life at risk to save his kids’ lives. Nothing much more heroic than that IMO. Glad to hear that he’s improving.
  21. You’re just throwing away good booze? That’s your problem right there.
  22. These are currently the five worst records in the NFL: Indianapolis 4-11-1 Denver 4-12 Arizona 4-12 Chicago is 3-13 Houston is 2-13-1 By starting Peterman Da Bearce are doing what they can to get that 1st overall pick. The Texicans are playing a foundering Indy team that also wants to lose their last game. This is going to go down to the wire.
  23. If you watch the video you might think otherwise. Thibodeaux literally has to repeatedly pull in his right arm on his snow angels to avoid hitting Foles. He knew he was still laying there.
