  1. There are also legitimate, science based hypothesis that it started in China. Hard to say.
  2. In a salary cap environment, first round picks must be All-Pro's or their value per consumption of cap space is negative. Whereas 2nd/3rd rounders who are strong contributors have a good value/cost ratio. Get enough of those guys in house and you also hit on some All-Pro's from rounds 2-3 at much better initial cost for years 1-4.
  3. I'd pay up to $100 per year for The Athletic. Anything less than that is pure value. Content is generally quite high quality and I love that the writer's often reply to reader comments.
  4. I find it amusing that people think they can differentiate 0.05-0.10 second differences in 40 yard dash speed by watching a clip of a guy playing football. You can't.
  5. The Owners and Players Union agreed to it in the last collective bargaining agreement. If it is unfair to one side, they must have gotten something else they wanted in return.
  6. Very true. That factors into it for sure. Let's hope the confidence in Allen and Co. even approaches what Rodgers inspires one day.
  7. Can you imagine McDermott EVER taking the non-conservative approach in these situations? I can't.
  8. Amazing how many unkind and ignorant replies are here. Speaks poorly of Bills fans and Stadium Wall posters. If you read the article her family is clearly in crisis. A court will decide whether there is liability for anyone involved at the stadium. Either way, it's a sad situation. Have some compassion.
  9. The good news is that CBS has one or more new mock drafts almost literally every day from now until the actual draft. I think they keep doing mock drafts after the draft is over. Don't put any stock in these things. None.
  10. Late 80's young core had 4 future HOF'ers and several more multi-year pro-bowlers (Bennett, Tasker, Hull, Wolford, Conlan). The current group certainly has potential but can we cool our jets a bit?
  11. Hard to say if Polian could have found a better kicker at that time. As laid out pretty clearly in this article from a few years back, the quality of kicking has improved dramatically since circa 1990 so comparing Norwood and his peer group to a 2015-2019 kicker isn't really appropriate: https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/kickers-are-forever/
  12. Players tend to say good things about new team owners, coaches, players and fans after signing large contracts to play there. Take what you will from such things.
  13. The Bills made Morse the highest paid Center in football. But you think the reason he signed with the Bills was that he'd rather play with Josh Allen vs. Patrick Mahomes? Alrighty then!
  14. Cool in what way? I mean, it's cool to us homers on TBD but I seriously doubt living in Buffalo and paying NYS taxes has become cool just because the Bills are a wild card team two out of three years.
  15. The other thread is about Ben retiring from futsal. It's entirely different. https://pittsburgh.cbslocal.com/2019/12/23/report-roethlisberger-wants-to-play-in-2020/ Actually, it may only be futsal. This article says he's committed to football.
  16. I hope so. Or they figure out how to better optimize his talents, which may be differently than how he's being utilized thus far.
  17. Edmunds tackling vs. the run was on display vs. the Patriots and he had a poor game. Credited with 4 missed tackles. Sorry, as a middle LB he needs to be better than that. He's young and it may be improving but it's still the hole in his game.
  18. At least a few eyeballs might be on the ball carrier on a QB sneak.
