My position would be that if the international stadiums will NOT provide a quality field, the games will be played elsewhere. The NFL is the 8 million pound gorilla, insist on a quality field or move on. Some other place will do it right.

…or skip PPP and straight to the dumpster? 🤢 🤮

Wow! You must have a great eye for talent to be able to judge a rookie after 30 defensive snaps with the Bills. I’m not that good, so I’ll just wait to see how he does next year. The point from @billsfan89 was our lack of elite athletes, so taking a shot at developing one doesn’t seem like a terrible idea. If he was ready to immediately perform at a higher level, he would have been drafted much sooner. Let’s give him some time and see how it goes.

Is this the worst Holiday Tradition ever? Give me fruitcake!

Maybe Beane is learning from the Master GM Bill Belichick and adopted a youth movement. I mean, not really adopting as in actual adoption, but close. I kid, lighten up. The dog was really the GM behind those drafts. .

The NFL is learning from the WWF. I don’t know how good he was or what he has left, so mildly hopeful is all I got…

Hopefully the guy who is a pleasant surprise next year when we have some vacancies. Hopefully. He will be like an unopened Christmas present you stumbled on, or finding a twenty in your pocket. .

Don’t let the facts get in the way! Oh, and let’s point out that while he may currently be about 16th, he’s getting less than 50% of what the top guys are getting. If you have a problem with that then you are just looking for problems to complain about, imo.

But then Hoecht got hurt, so here we are. I still can’t blame the way they went about the team building. Like signing Von, they took a swing and it didn’t work out. I’d be excited to see this defense play if they were healthy, but that’s hard to come by.

We should be more like the Bengals. They went to a Super Bowl a few years ago, remember? Instead of blaming the FO for the Rousseau contract, maybe you should praise the incredible Bosa contract? This seems to indicate a predisposition. Yes, Groot makes $20AAV, but the top DE’s all make at least double that, in the $40-45Mil AAV range. He’s not a speedy, bendy edge rusher, piling up sacks. That’s not what he does, and that’s not how he’s paid, so I’m fine with the deal. Saying it’s not as good as the Bosa deal is silly and fails to give credit for the STEAL that was the Bosa signing. The Big Picture is helpful for perspective when viewing these deals. Bosa might be one of the very best signings in the entire NFL last offseason. And cherrypicking examples with the benefit of hindsight is so worn out here…..…

I remember that. It was the last time the Bengals made the playoffs. Anything might happen this weekend, but it will have nothing to do with what happened a few years ago. I’m not seeking gloom and doom, I’ll just wait and watch the game.

You want to go to the Arts Center?

I wish for a win against the Bengals.

Thank you for falling on that grenade and saving many of us from potential emotional trauma. Who am I kidding? These guys are probably even MORE curious now. 😂

Have you ever seen me and @HOUSE in the same place at the same time??? I didn’t think so…..
