Drowning. Hanging. Electrocution. Hung by ankles on a line and smashed with a bat like a pinata. The fighting is bad enough, dogs fighting is atleast 'somewhat' natural. Torturing animals in creative fashion for fun, is demented. Had it been done with a bolt or tap behind the ear to put them out of their misery, maybe there's a touch more empathy for the guy. Oh, and the killings weren't always putting down a dog gravely injured. At times it was torturing dogs to death, who had never even fought.... because they weren't aggressive enough. Dude tortures animals for fun. If that isn't setting off alarm bells I dunno what will.

Remember what he did to us on Thanksgiving (or maybe weekend before) 2 years ago? Remember the teams we did not want to draw: indy/cle/Tennessee. Our personnel does not match well against the run. Actually most nfl s teams don't have great personnel to stop the run. Teams have been loading up on LBs that have gotten smaller/quicker to defend against the pass. We're seeing a few teams double down on the run to take advantage of this. Now those teams^^ have had to do it out of necessity with mediocre QBs, but I think the trend continues to grow a bit. If you're not passing well, and defenses are qued in to stopping the pass with smaller defenses... why not be the outlier and pound the rock, i.e. Giants. In no way do I think the importance of run game will ever be what it was even 5 years ago, but i think that gameplan continues to trend up the next few years

If he needs another half season or season to grow into zone, I'm fine with it. In the mean time he's a nice chess piece for pressing Kelce, Tyreek, Chase. Wish we'd find a way to get him involved with some hybrid man/zone schemes like were going to need for the receivers listed above. Also, great piece to have on blitzing plays

damn, we wouldnt pony up anything better than a 5th? i wouldve offered Booger and a 5th, or a 5th that converts to a 4 based on playing time

I just dont understand how last year he was good enough to start. He got hurt 2nd Q of game 2, game 1 was an absolute monsoon if im remembering right. so he hasnt really played, no matter how u slice it major, major scouting problems. No way he should be behind darnold. u cant give up what they gave up for him and not find a way to get him in the game. develop him in practice, hell, create an interesting run option package to get him on the field

This stinks of old guy 'athletes make too much' attitude, while completely ignoring the DEMAND and ability to generate that money. Usually this voice thinks they're standing up to the big man, when in reality, they're standing up for the enormous man (billionaires, with a B). "That's what a contract is", nonsense. What happens if a player looks like ass, does the team just pay out huge $$ while they're buried on depth chart? Nope! They cut them. It's a two way street. If a contract stinks, for anybody, the reality is one side or the other will alter it. If teams want to get players to honor their full contract no matter what, then they can talk to the NFLPA about fully guaranteed contracts.... oh wait, that won't happen in a billion years. You're arguing for the billionaires to have the advantage of a one way street lol 🤡

If we think we can coach him up I be interested. Be great to have a backup with similar skills etc as Josh, barkeley and allen are nothing like 17, we completely change the offense. he'd be great for scout team offense. And again if you can coach him up, find a way to showcase him, could lead to a nice trade package. There's a lot of ifs there, but if he's available cheap, there should be interest from us

Riddick has had legit looks at him as a GM. ESPN sucks, but hes one of the good guys

First reaction was maybe this hurts them some, but now that I think about it, it likely helps them. Retiring at 28, at this time of year, means either: he was playing like absolute poop and was facing a cut. OR He doesn't love the game anymore. Hard to picture that being the case if he was looking sharp out there. Either of those scenarios and it's a bad contract that they just got out of. They lose some talent this year, but are better off next year with $$$

Cap didnt grow as much as normal from the covid year... the next 2 years were modest bumps, I think next season really jumps to finally catch up to where it was trending pre-covid Agreed, but cant see why he would sign that lol he has all the leverage in any extension talk. If we come to the table to extend its because we need the cap room, not because we're overly worried about adding years. Hes not getting cut, so from his perspective, why would he sign anything that moves backwards, when its BUFF needing the favor. He'd just say nah, and leave the table (*never thought id type that sentence)

Think Epenesa has more value on the streets. Would be willing to part with him, and a pick to sweeten it if the right OT was out there (seems like ARZ has two with Beachum and Josh Jones)... we also have communicated with them a decent amount this past offseason (DHop) so hopefully theres some mutual rapport/respect there. Either one of those would be real nice additions For whaaaat? Older guy who hit his (low) ceiling already?

1,000% agree. Thing is there are so few elite enough to meet that standard. I'd add Vita Vea to the list. Dude is a game wrecker

I will say in the last 2 seasons weve seen a bit of an uptick (albeit from an all time low) in RB's being relevant. The league is always trying to counter trends. Were seeing more nickel and dime defenses then ever, the Brandon Spikes LB'er is extinct, and it seems like LB'er cores are getting smaller and faster, to account for heavy passing league. NE last year and Indy/TN/CLE the year before are two teams that had major emphasis on the run game. I wont claim to know if that trend continues to grow. I do remember 2 years ago not wanting to draw one of Indy/TN/Cle in wild card because of exactly this..... just food for thought

Serious question here. What are the different ways *NFL* HCs handle things like undisciplined penalties from players? -Can't fine them, don't know that'd be a good option even if you could -There's running laps. Pretty universal, but many would think that's soft. (Runs small risk of belittling players, i.e. Urban Meyer) -Can obviously reduce playing time especially RBs WRs, but what about OL? Hard to bench (and a bit nuclear this early) a DDawk for a series, cutting of nose to spite face. -Position coach/Hc can call them out during film I know each situation calls for different options, but am I missing anything? How do players get held accountable? Anybody a little more in the know have some nuance to add? At this point I'm just as curious from an overall league perspective, not just Buffalo

He was a 7th rd pick and has been an above average depth piece. It's early pre season, you probably weren't even watching the game, it was national media watching who probably were hearing their first media updates of the new season about him. There's been a major spike in people taking CPR Classes. Did you come home from work early and find him in your bed? If not, you should seriously chill out. Good grief dude

I'm sure we also suspect this and, as always, should be coached up on this ahead of time. Sure certain players get away more than others, but the refs have to worry about their jobs and league perception too. The easiest way to lose is to come out and play like choir boys, while they stretch out our WRs jerseys. Come out aggressive too, and be ready to switch up if whistles come out heavy

Meh, while it does restrict somewhat, whats stopping a team from giving the Watson type contract, $1m this year, then pump up the next 2-4 years of contract + GUARANTEED $$

Curious if this could happen.... NOT even talking about here, but was a spit-balling take from Cover2. Say no teams were willing to trade and give a new contract, is it possible a team could offer to put in writing that they would NOT franchise tag him... just as the next best incentive for him as opposed to a new contract. Just, we want your services for the year, we cant afford you, but to keep you happy/motivated, you'll get a chance to chase $$ as an Unrestricted next year? Would just be interesting to see that precedent set, because anytime we see this situation most of the top dawg teams are immediately ruled out because of cap concerns. Basically, can a team even offer a 'no franchise tag' clause? Has that happened before?

speaking of the Darby to the wolves theory, i havent gone back to watch, likely wont.... but saw a few others suggest Brown was being asked to handle TJ 1 on 1 all day. Hoping thats true and part of the struggle. We still have time to correct things. Dawkins looking fat this time every year is starting to grate on me. Stay in shape! Training camp isnt time to take the training wheels off. Show up in respectable shape conditioning wise, and not distracted with trying to get your weight down. All focus should be on GEL'ing and setting an example for the new/young guys, you're a pro, act like it.

Kinda dig Detroit Season Opener at +240. High offense scoring. Early season when games can be a lil weird. Gunna wait till closer to gametime when those odds would payout better. KC has also "struggled' early the last few years a bit

I won't fully freak out. Steelers DL is no joke, even vanilla. It's not what I wanted to see but atleast it wasn't Chicago/Arizona doing it to us. We failed to get in a rhythm for a short time frame, it happens. Real game woulda had few more quarters to get cohesive. I'll be worried if we have 4quarters like that. Grasping at straws here, but remember when they threw Darby to the wolves intentionally... scheme up a tough game plan to see how he responds. Maybe there was some of that going on too. They'll be ready week 1, or they better be!

Lol boxing nicknames for football players is goofy unless it comes extremely naturally That said, sounds like you need to enact your screen name soon here. Swole Beasley is funny af though

It's just Kink or DK2

Either all these people collaborated to get him, or this is 99.9% B-S This all sounds fabricated or twisted. My guess is the "drugged and robbed" turns out to "just" be the drug dealer. I won't shed tears for them, but this is all BS sticking 10 fishing lines in and hoping anything bites. All the trucker infractions sound like when a cop is pissed and wants to give you 10 bs tickets, except to an even worse degree. Brakes were 1/20th inch off Tires had 31.5psi 57 in 55 Etc etc etc

please do, would be cool to follow along
