  1. I will admit, I could have made a more well-rounded argument like Ethan in Cleveland did. And I could be suffering "they really stunk up the Cincinnati game" bias instead of looking at the whole season.
  2. Well, let's hope motivated Josh hooks up again with his mentor Jordan Palmer. Goal: throw fewer interceptions. An unpopular take for sure. But there's some there there. 14 for 2022 exceeds his 12 of his rookie year,
  3. No. When Jack Kent Cook, owner of the Redskins, passed away, they tried everything to pass the team to the kids and failed. The estate had to sell to Snyder.
  4. Just for amusement's sake, consider: The Marriott in Amherst, a 400 room hotel in good condition and prime location, just sold for 14 million. That's less than a year's salary for these QBs. It's just crazy. And McKinley Mall will go for peanuts next month.
  5. I pray for Kim for many reasons. #1 at the top of my list: ..she is way way too young to be deserving of this situation. Just reflect for a moment on how young she is. It's mind-boggling. 53 years old is too young for this. How many of us bloviators on this board are older than 53? I want to see her contributing to NFL committees tomorrow.
  6. New York Times:
  7. Maybe the team didn't underperform. Maybe it performed at its level. Maybe McDermott, the 13th winningest winning NFL coach, brought the team above its level.
  8. Why would anyone talk a person with negativity such as yours off the ledge? Jump. BTW... McDermott is the 13th winningest coach all time, and Josh Allen is an interception machine. That puts huge holes in your post.
  9. Terry would be a fool if he invested in a dome, in a building that he rents from the state. He's no fool.
  10. I lived in DC when Jack Kent Cooke died and the estate was forced to sell to an outsider. Snyder, whose fortune came from "marketing," whatever that is, comes along and buys the team. They were cocky fans and genuflected when Cooke's name came up.. it was pretty gross. When listening to Tony Kornheiser and Michael Wilbon drone on the radio about Cooke,I knew Skins fans were in for a rough journey with this rogue named Snyder. I was right. Snyder never meshed with fans. His endless bad decisions and poor behavior set the entire organization on the perpetual NFL backburner. The Skins were mired in mediocrity his entire ownership. Will the new ownership group bring a change? I'm skeptical. The Packers notwithstanding, I don't think group ownership is the recipe for on field success.
  11. PSLs in Buffalo may set a new failure for the NFL. The Buffalo populace just doesn't have the level of personal wealth to afford exorbitant PSL fees. Pass the popcorn. Trainwreck coming.
  12. Here's a pundit, former player, who I disagree with. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/ravens-lamar-jackson-being-hurt-by-patrick-mahomes-b-s-contract-according-to-former-nfl-star/ He's saying: and Like Cleveland over-valued Watson, I think Sherman here over-values Jackson. And to angrily call out Mahomes and Allen out as the root cause of Jackson's situation is just over the top.
  13. Ugh. If we suffer a down year, this board would be an unreadable place. There will be constant shrill calls to fire McDermott, fire Beane. Fans will be suicidal. Fans have quickly forgotten how easy it is any year to be sub-500. They quickly became accustomed to winning. A down year will be fugly. Please God: no down years.
  14. Buffalo can't have anything nice. Why should they be punching well above their weight for an NFL team. As someone said up-thread: I will believe it when I see the heavy excavating equipment at One Bills Drive.
  15. McDermott is a good coach.
  16. Yeap. Queue the fans who know better than Beane.
  17. ...and they ran him out of town. Maybe a point I could have made better.
  18. Let's not forget Reid's lackluster record and being run out of Philly.
  19. It took 3 pages to get a serious comment. Thanks.
  20. Sounds bigger than Terry Pegula's yacht by far. But Terry's yacht is certainly more economical.
  21. True, Beane is a witch.
  22. Restructures are nice to give you that instant jolt of cash. But they are one trick ponies. You must be prudent when moving forward, despite all the protestations from fans that the cap isn't real. The cap is real.
  23. I explored a Green Bay forum. They aren't worried about Rodgers leaving. They are saying he can go to the Jets and under-throw and over-throw receivers there. After reading their comments I am less concerned about Rodgers/Jets. Or Rodgers/Miami which is speculated by some.
  24. Guys, stop talking past each other when trying to compare state taxes. There's no need to have a mangled conversation because one is talking property tax while the other is talking income tax. Bright researchers have ironed it out by calculating the Total Tax Burden of a state that includes all the taxes. And guess who finishes the worse out of fifty states... New York! https://wallethub.com/edu/states-with-highest-lowest-tax-burden/20494 New York is #1 in total tax burden. Florida is number 45. Given Poyer's comments about taxes, and Tua Tagovailoa's birthday, and given what Rachel does with swim suits, I'd say he's gunning hard for Miami. I'd hate to face a motivated Poyer twice a year--even if he is geriatric.
