Genuinely laughed out loud at this

This is what makes the Lawson pick seem more irresponsible to me. I know I'm going to get torched for this, but when you take a guy who you know is going to miss half the season, you put more pressure on your other picks to succeed to have a valuable draft. We gave ourselves to wiggle room and now we are only going to get 8 games out of 32 from our top two picks. That's just overal unacceptable. I know you can't control injuries, but that's why you don't also gamble with them.

Scheme and comfortability makes ALL the difference and this team proved it. Look at the drop off from Schwartz to Rex. Same players. It still pisses me off to think about it because did it all in one year because he knew how to adapt. Either way, the talent is there. You can't be all-pro at every position. We have more than enough talent, even with Spikes just being brought in. Now, do I have faith in Rex to capitalize on it.......

I'm not worried about the D at all honestly. I believe we got better with the loss of Mario. I believe that, while Ragland would be good, he's a rookie and Spikes should be adequate. Most importantly, the team being on the same system for two straight years, players overall just getting better, and overall buy in will make us better. Either way, it can't be worse

Second opinions always worry me

This

I can dig it

I still don't see the benefit here. If TT proves his worth this year, we he's going to get a deal next year and we need the franchise tag for Gilmore next year. So, the only reason to get a deal done now is to prevent needing the tag next year and not hosing ourselves ala Fitz style. Pushing the deal down two years is even worse in my opinion. If he's the guy two years down the road still, it's only going to cost us more

If this doesn't have a team option after 2 years, this makes no sense. Is the idea to throw money at him in good faith and hope he returns the favor if earns a long term deal? If not, he's getting 3 this year and the tag is 22ish next year. So what's the point in this? If they want to do 2 years for 20 mil, I'd be better with that. The first reference to a 3 year deal with a team option for more makes the most sense to me.

Every year we have one, if not two games, that we lose that we thought couldn't happen. Equally, we pull out a win we weren't supposed to either. So I can't question it too much

It's my passive aggressive way of saying that's it's unimportant, means nothing, so don't worry about it. You can buy my translator book at Borders.....

I think many are missing the BBFS aspect of the post

Who gives a ****?

I've come to accept the fact that tongue and cheek posts are lost on half of this board

I'm very happy to be wrong

Not sure how I feel about this 😉

This. Unfortunately

1 - @Baltimore W 26-10 - Woohoo, Defense shut it down. Dez Lewis amazing. Lock up TT 2 - NY Jets W 22-15 - We won a primetime game!!! Why haven't we paid TT? Rex did it. I was so wrong 3 - Arizona L 30-16 - We can't win them all. Good team. It's okay. Bradyless Pats next week 4 - @New England - L 16-10. What the !@#$?!? Did that happen? Even without Brady!!!! 5 - @Los Angeles - W - 23-10. Okay, back over .500 with easy games coming up. Pats game was a fluke 6 - San Francisco -W - 31-27. Phew! That was too close. Didn't like that, but we are 4-2, I'll take it 7 - @Miami W - 21-10. 5-2, Playoffs here we come!!!! We are untouchable. Rex for Prez 8 - New England L 38-10. God !@#$ing damn it!!! We will never win with Brady in our league. D sucks. O sucks. 9 - @Seattle L - 31-17. Okay, 5-4 going into our bye week. Seattle is tough. If we win the next few.... 10 - Bye - Best weekend in football. Everyone is calm. Teams with better records lose. Time for November 11 - @Cincinnati L 27-21. How do we lose after our bye week and now TT is hurt?!? 12 - Jacksonville - L 27-24. The Jags?!? The !@#$ing Jags again?!? !@#$ you EJ. !@#$ you November! 5-6?!?! 13 - @Oakland - L 31-17. Well, another December and we are done. But maybe if we win out....... 14 - Pittsburgh - L 27-13. It was fun guys. Who do you think our coach will be next year? 5-8 15 - Cleveland - W 17-6. At least they aren't quitting on Rex and TT is back 16 - Miami W - 21-10. One more win until another .500 season. Defense looks like it might finally be clicking 17 - @NY Jets W 22-15. Well, at least we kept the Jets out too. Fire Rex, Keep Rex, Burn it down. Continuity! I think that about covers my upcoming range of emotions for the season

It's science. He's gonna be a star!!!

He's on his rookie deal and missed a whole season. Sorry, this is how it works. I feel no sympathy for him. He can bleed teams after this deal is up, hopefully get his extension next year

There's nothing I want to be more true

We have the money this year and next. If I can make a deal with a decent out clause after year 2/3, I'm good with it.

I hate how he makes us look. At least we lost before and no one seemed to care. Now we get to have a spotlight on our failures. Plus, for someone with BBFS, it's not nice to give us hope. We don't know how to reject it and it only brings us down harder.

Now that's actually a really interesting thought. If I'm not mistaken, he went all INT happy in the 4th quarter. If he wins that game, imaging how different things would be right now. People would be losing their minds in NY and I bet he's already locked up 2-3 years in the 12-15 range. I'm trying to think of anyone who had one quarter of play crush them heading into the next season. And yes, I know that the Jets are tight for money, but they would've need to find a way to get it done

Thank you!
