  1. Just wait for Crowder to come back. As they enter the playoffs these bottom of the roster guys mean less and less. Diggs, Davis, and Knox will get 80% of the targets. Maybe 10-15% to the running backs. That leaves a few scraps for McKenzie and Shakir. They are fine at WR and don't need OBJ.
  2. I think all programs have there up and downs. Remember Alabama was once coached by David Shula. USC hit tock bottom just recently. Tennessee has been a bottom feeder for a decade. Ohio State with Earl Bruce underperformed. Boston College used to be good. Oregon before Phil Knight poured a billion dollars into the school was a Pac 10 afterthought. Utah has built a really good program while BYU is now down. Not saying Colorado can turn it around, but it usually takes a dynamic recruiter, possibly money under the table( before NIL), and a few star players to get some name recognition with the kids.
  3. So all the Beane hasn't done enough for the Oline and WR group comments on here are meaningless? Pretty sure Josh got a lot better throwing to Diggs and Beasley. Seemed to struggle when Morse was out. Jalen Hurts was ok last year and now is a lot better with two better WRs.
  4. Carolina is a dumpster fire. Mayfield asked to be released to go to better organization.
  5. Chiefs at Denver and at Vegas could be hard games. Last game of the year may be a playoff spot for Raiders who are playing better. They have a run game and dominant WR that can keep Mahommes and Kelce off the field. Raiders also have decent pass rush. I think KC drops one more game and the real fight for #1 seed is with the Bengals
  6. Aren't most Denver losses close losses? I think all but two of their games - wins and losses are 1 score games many 3 points or fewer including this past weekend. Maybe this is the week Denver O finds itself. KC defense is not that great. It's in Denver. KC coming off a loss makes it harder but it could be an upset of the week.
  7. Lol. Jets are terrible but you get the NYC audience. I think the Browns Bengals game is actually more compelling but they probably didn't want the #1 team covering a Watson game.
  8. Agreed. And Seattle has one of the worst trades ever when they gave up two first rounders for Adams.
  9. Isn't it odd that the Rams pick that the Lions have will be higher that Detroit's own pick. Not many would have guessed that coming off a SB win.
  10. Does the board beleive in the Eagles and Hurts now? They keep stacking wins and Hurts keeps piling up the yards and scores
  11. Staley is ruining Herbert. He has to go if they miss the playoffs with all the off-season money they spent. Still think they have a shot at the WC because Miami, New England, and the Jets are going to start to lose in bunches.
  12. Good day for Buffalo! Take care of business the next two weeks and then see what happens down the stretch.
  13. I was on board from day 1 before the draft. Wanted no part of Mayfield or Darnold. That said I would have been happy with Rosen too. He was my #2. Beane has been great but if the Jets take Allen its a whole different story for Beane and McDermott
  14. He lost control of the ball while he was out of bounds going to the ground. Its been the rule for several years now and a pretty easy call. Like others said the ball never hit the ground so if his body was still in bounds its a catch. Not even close to the correct interpretation of the play. He made no football move. He didn't survive the ground. No catch. Easy call.
  15. Sign Edmunds to a top 3 contract and find a way to keep Poyer. Use the draft for OL and WR.
  16. Agreed. He had a very good 8-10 game stretch at the end of 2019. He deserved the ProBowl in 2019. He injured his shoulder in early 2020 and I think that really set him back more than we know. He was not the same player in 2020 and 2021.
  17. Two things can be true. He played poorly for the better half of two seasons in 2020 and 2021. He was not making the negative plays that Milano was. Almost everyone on here agreed that picking up his extension was the right thing to do as did I. Most on here wanted to see more explosive plays and more game changing plays. He's had more of those this year but still not as many as Milano. The issue was and still is how much do you pay him. He will want to be top 3 if not highest paid MLB in the league. If he continues to play at this level the rest of the season Beane should pay him. The cap will go up. Oliver and Davis are not due for more money yet, though dais may ask for a contract extension/pay raise. Signing Edmunds means you probably lose Poyer and/or Hyde. Maybe not if you do some contract work with Allen and Miller. If I'm Beane I pay him because they need the draft pick to add to the OL and WR group and address the safety position. The opportunity cost of losing him is too great at this point.
  18. Josh with a Fitz jersey!!! Awesome!!!!
  19. Did Lawson get hurt? Haven't seen him this drive
  20. Tough call. Led with his shoulder. Looked clean but hard near the head. I understand why they called it but not sure how you tell Hamlin to do anything different
  21. Thats what they will say after they hoist the Lombardi!
  22. Do they do on field post game show with the players? Will be interesting to see how many Bills fans in the stands stay to cheer.
