They're incredibly effective but not as effective as we thought they were... amazing how things change in just a few months. Correct... strongly encourage them but do not make them. It's a fact they negotiated for personal choice on COVID-19 protocols... that's how it is set up for players. Get over it.

FDA approved as of yesterday... even if that's what they were waiting for and get the shot yesterday... it still wouldn't have solved this issue the team ran into today. I think the people yelling about how it's FDA approved are funny (you're not the only one who I've seen do it in this thread)... the FDA has approved 1 vaccine and they did that on Monday. It's not like it's been FDA approved for weeks, months or even days... it's been a day. It's like facts don't matter.

This makes me want to lock myself up in my house again and do nothing.

That’s not what I said… I said he could keep us on track during the regular season should Josh miss time. I do stand by the point that Trubisky is arguably the 2nd best QB in the division.

Obviously don’t want to lose either.. but this is kind of broad. If they’re out for the year… sure it’s an enormous blow. If Josh misses 4-5 games (lord, I hope not) Mitch is more than capable of winning 3-4 games in his absence. There’s a legitimate case to be made that Mitch is the 2nd best QB in the AFC East, behind the aforementioned Josh Allen.

Daboll seems to be throwing the word consistent around A LOT today. I wonder what he means by that...

Basham probably makes the team? Uhh we’re not cutting our second rounder… sorry.

I’ve argued he’s not a bust and provides an element in our defense that gives defensive coordinators fits… ***** WEIRD THAT THERE WAS A POLL OF DEFENSIVE COORDINATORS AND THEY SAID JUST THIS The I said upthread he should get 4 years and $70-$80M In my eyes he gets $70M over 4 years That, with the 5th year option at $12.5M makes it 5 years and $82.5M which $16.5M AAV… one of the higher paid linebackers but not paid like Leonard and Warner just got paid…

That’s also not an accurate portrayal of what I’ve expressed in the past… glad to see you’re still an expert in word gymnastics. My thoughts in the past and my post upthread, technically, do include me in your group of “everyone” though…

@mods I take offense to personal attacks. Ban this guy please. 😊

You’re right.

Edmunds will get between $70-$80M over 4 years. He won’t sniff a Leonard deal… just not the same caliber guy.

I believe I saw it was Diggs

Lmao I thought the same thing when I saw that 😂

How many run first QBs have won Super Bowls quarterbacking a team as compared to pass first QBs? Asking for a friend?

Uhhhh.... he should have predicted the future so much so that he took a risk by cutting a starting caliber defensive lineman in favor of the idea he MIGHT get to take two DE in the draft? Nobody though Basham would be there in RD2. Rousseau at 30 wasn't even a lock? Beane even said they weren't planning on taking 2 DE... the board just fell that way. You're asking him to be reckless building a roster... not predict the future.

🙃

There are two really loud Christian Wade factions… 1) The group that believes Christian Wade is a NFL running back right now and needs to make the roster and the Bills are doing him a disservice by keeping him on the practice squad. 2) The group that believes Christian Wade is not good at all and will never be good and is wasting a spot for someone else and they’re tired of hearing about him (thanks group #1). Both sides are out of touch and don’t understand the purpose of keeping Christian Wade around.

Gave Davis has said he models himself after his idol, Larry Fitzgerald on the field. He very apparently models himself after Fitzgerald off the field as well. He’s a good one.

The post you were replying to was someone mulling over the idea of Dorsey going with Daboll or staying with us and you never stated otherwise in your post. May have just mashed it all together in my head lol

Yes. People are being groomed for certain roles... maybe not outwardly for every person (some know they're being groomed to take over position X while others don't)... but the things that they're exposed to are preparing them for future duties. The higher ups are aware and keep tabs/place people in certain circles for specific reasons.

It's often agreed upon behind the scenes who you're allowed to take and who you aren't allowed to take. It's a fairly big deal so they sort it out ahead of time. I'm not sure this makes sense in the context of Dorsey? Dorsey is set up to be the next OC here with Josh... where both are very comfortable with each other... why would Dorsey follow Daboll? When Daboll leaves and Dorsey moves up don't you think coaches have already discussed where they stand with Dorsey and the organization as a whole? A succession plan is already in place. The only guys leaving are the guys they're ok with leaving.

This is more Brandon Beane’s philosophy on the salary cap then it is the Pegulas not having money. Maybe you’re right and it’s because they’re cash poor… but I doubt it.

I think Wentz’s collapse is overblown and a product of a poor environment. Reich has show himself to be a steadying hand. Wentz is far more dynamic than Rivers is and in my opinion that was the element they were lacking against us last year. I don’t think the gap between Wentz, Mayfield and Jackson is all that big.

The Colts are the 3rd best team in the conference and get zero love. I guess because Wentz is a question mark… but they’re one of the best run organizations in sports right now.
