  1. Holy crap if that came true Bills would be luckier than 2x winners of a 400 million+ lottery.
  2. I have the perfect screen names for him to consider using: Robbed Gronkowski. or Robbed Gronk. or just like "The Rock" "The Gronk" if he does porn, then: Rubbed Gronk.
  3. I get your frustrations and angle but....... No no no and no They are paid to appear just like any entertainer. If they fail expectations they then do not get a next contract or it is reduced. People continually want to break down athletes salary into stat increments. So much a yard, so much a carry, so much a TD etc etc...... It does not work that way for entertainers. You pay them a contract to appear and perform/entertain. In NFL case for a season. Movie stars for a movie. Singers for a 1 off concert or extended show engagements like Vegas did with Celine Dion or Cher. You never hear anyone say Tom Cruise got paid $71.53 for each word he spoke in said movie. Or Cher got paid $19,473.00 for ea song ea night she sang at her casino resident show in Vegas. She was not getting pd more if she encored and played a couple extra one night or cut it short one song because her throat was killing her. And certainly you never hear anyone expecting a refund if the show was performed yet they were not as entertaining as they expected. You just don't go next time.
  4. I thought Flutie.....but then I ask myself.......do they even have jails in Canada??
  5. Could you imagine the burps after that? He is likely at risk for e-coli death. Idiot Eagle fan.
  6. They beat Jets in NY on prime time night game Rex 1st year.
  7. He is still a mediocre back up QB long term. Bills fans(including me) love him now and rightfully so. He slayed the Cheats when it mattered and we can rip Pats fans forever now for losing on the biggest stage to a journeyman career back up who wanted to retire two years ago to become a Pastor. Divine intervention for sure.
  8. Falcons and Seahawks tried to "go for it" win the last two Super Bowls vs the Cheats? He did not want to be that guy. Pedersen had many go for it moments in this game, no reason to push your luck there. He made the right call. IMO.
  9. It is hard to see unless you blow up the vid to full screen and play in slow mo due to navy blue end zone. At 41 sec mark you can clearly see a dark line mark made as his toes slide on turf kicking up rubber pellets of the turf. That means he is touching in bounds. Just like the dark strip KB made dragging his toes in NE on TD called back vs Pats this year. Except Eagle has ball secure as he already changed hands unlike KB did. at 1:08 he clearly has ball secure in left arm. Right foot down and left foot toes ar starting to drag. He never steps down flat footed, and toes slide out of bounds. The whole foot does not need to get in bounds. That only comes into play when a player steps straight down like a normal step walking, and contacts heel first then toes come down flat. For some reason then NFL considers that out of bounds if heel is in but flat footed toes are out. It was reversed in Bills favor in MN Super Bowl vs Wash on end line in end zone negating a Wash TD. You could argue if heel touches down first then completing the step flat footed with toes out could still be legal catch but NFL has set precedence for that and they say Out of bounds. If you are going to argue Eagles needed whole foot to be inbounds you are wrong. He never steps flat he slides his toes and that is all he needs to do. Just when he gets full control in left arm after changing ball position his right foot is down, he then drags his left toes inbounds and maintains control in left arm before his toes reach the white. TD all day.
  10. look at 41 sec mark. dark line where left toe drags before it hits white. This was after he put it in left arm secure and right foot was down then left foot down.
  11. He does not need to be on the line. All players line up a yard back on hip of center. He needs to cover the offensive lineman on the end of the line. All OL line up about a yard back from the ball with head centered on the hip of the center. That is considered legal. The WR in this case asked the ref two times if he was on the line and got the thumbs up ea time, so he was legal. If he then moved up a half or 1 yard he risked an off sides flag as ref just told him 2x from his vantage point he was on LOS.
  12. Yeah not too far off.....just a matter of semantics opinion etc etc....... I would say that interim HC(especially one game) with likely no pay raise from his pay before they promoted him to OC after two games in by Rex vs multi million dollar per yr multi year contractual actual HC are two very different positions and an actual promotion. NFL regulations for hiring would agree with that assessment. IMO. I believe McDermottt did not want or felt Lynn would never stay as OC as he wanted to be a HC. But there was chatter he could return as OC if he did not get HC position. But for hypothetical and put another way: would NFL have allowed Bills to deny Lynn, who was essentially on a RB coach salary, to interview with Chargers for HC as they wished to hold onto him to see if Bills new coach wanted to hire him as OC?? I don't think so and likely would have opened Bills up to a grievance procedure. Pegs would never do such a thing. It is suicide in trying to attract assistants.
  13. Butler was screwed by the Pats last year when they advised they told him they would not give big money for above avg corners. Then turned around and signed Gilmore and turned the screws on Butler by placing the 1st round tender on him forcing him to be a Pat. Pats don't care about feelings. It is all business. cba allowed the tender and they applied it. Be dammed about how player feels. Butler needed to force his way off team last year to save face. He did not and Pats got what they deserved with this **** show Super Bowl Bellychick orchestrated. I bet right now if you asked Butler after game and as angry as he was, if he knew what he knew right now about how this all went down if he would have held out this year. He would say yes. Of course his agent would have likely talked him out of it due to money pd this year about 4 mill and that he would still not be eligible for FA if he held out a year.
  14. WTH: Lynn was promoted to OC. He was never fired by Bills. He interviewed for Bills HC and was not hired as HC. He was then hired by SD. He left, much more so than he was fired. McDermott never had a chance to consider him for OC and very unlikely Lynn would have taken it since he was in line for a HC job.
  15. Foles does come with a golden bridge QB friendly contract. Check it out. http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/philadelphia-eagles/nick-foles-9898/ 7 mill cap hit for 2018 then auto voids 2019 with no dead cap after OR at any time for team that trades for him. So if he gets beat out in training camp next year and is cut. No dead cap. In that scenario the new team could trade him instead of cutting him if a team has QB injury in preseason. Foles is the new Bradford. Some team will give a mid pick for that contract even though a two year deal would be better.
  16. Media has reported this about Gronk and Marshaw Lynch multiple times. They may not come off as the smartest guys in the world but that is genius management of money by any standard even if it is not "100%" accurate.
  17. Yeah right. Maybe he can go bar hopping with the Big Ben. These guys are starting to sound like Bret Favres annual retire not retire retire not retire media whore parties.
  18. You would have until July to negotiate a long term deal. If Skins franchise him they must keep 34 mill or what ever it is available on there salary cap. If Cousins signs the tender the 34 mill is on Redskins cap unless they trade him. If they cut him they still are hit. If they franchise him they would not be able to complete the Smith trade and new contract until they cut or trade a bunch of other guys. KC needs the cap relief now mar 14 as they are over the cap. Skins likely would have to rescind the franchise tag or be in a complete mess if Cousins signs the tender and then refuse to play trade salary contract ball with new team.
  19. WTH Mayfield........are you the White Sanchez or Buttfumble 2.0 ......don't tell me those are bell bottoms!!!.......lol.
  20. EJ Gaines needs to be retaught how to tackle. He needs to stop hitting hard and just come up and wrap up rugby style. it will prolong his career and make him much more durable. His skill is covering and run stopping but he does not need to lay the wood every time. Just make the stop.
  21. That would be Mike Glennon x 4. Those guys are all bridge QB's and the teams that sign them very well could still draft a QB high like Bears did last year.
  22. Agreed.....and don't sleep on M Goodwin. He balled out last year and will major ball out with Jimmy G throwing to him.
  23. Some people, Hollywood/celebrity types, wear clear non corrective lenses to make a fashion statement. Added benefit is it protects eyes.
