And it's not just that the Front Offices are doing it for them. Brady has DIRECT influence on players being signed (see: Antonio Brown, Rob Gronkowski). He says "Go get my friends" and they bring them in. That is more control than Watson or Wilson or Rodgers have ever asked for.

How great would it be if Rodgers referenced this post during his next appearance on the Pac McAfee show?

The Buffalo Inferiority Complex will always be a thing. Especially when it gives TBD board members a chance to hate on a woman.

Maybe. Sure, players can be better in their prime than at an older age. But irrc, he has never played as many snaps in a season as he did last year. So its kinda a double whammy.

What is this even supposed to mean?

Completely different context and situations. edit: you can "laugh" at the post as a way to dismiss it without having to publicly lose the argument. But if you need me to type it out to explain it to you slowly, you are talking about a couple of rookies who didnt want to come to Buffalo. Whereas Watt is a 10 year vet who has been a good soldier and is high priced at the end of his contract, and wants to find greener pastures. Completely different.

I think the idea is, if he came to Buffalo where we have a decent rotation, and he didnt have to play 91% of the snaps, he could stay fresher and perform better.

You are in top form trolling in this thread.

I'd like to see it for one of our Alternative uniforms. The home crowd would go NUTS. And I love our new uniforms. But if we are going to go with an Alternative set for a game or two each season, I like this over the All-Reds, and even the 60s throwbacks.

Yeah, the GB and Pitt just seem like lazy takes. He's from Wisc, and his brother plays in Pitt. So what. We could get there by releasing Butler and Jefferson too. I wouldnt mind keeping Addison around. He was the best of the under-performing bunch.

Mike Shanahan's wife wouldn't come here either. I also seem to remember from my childhood in the 80s that Andre Reed's wife was very unhappy here and almost caused him to leave in Free Agency.

I've said the same thing. Cutting Jefferson and Butler saves us $12.5M Give JJ $9-10M and save $3M to spend on the OL.

lol, not really

Astros really brought a ton of bad sports karma to Houston. Texans fall apart. Rockets in shambles.

Considering he played something like 90%+ of the snaps for Houston last year, I absolutely agree. Less snaps would keep him fresher and up his production. And while I'm sure he'd like less snaps, I dont think he'd be happy being depth. He still wants to start, and then be on rotation. Just my guess.

We'll never allow him to vacation in Buffalo in peace!

Happily married to the hottie

Why would he? Assuming they re-sign Dupree, JJ doesnt even start there. And Ben is on his way out in a tough division, so they arent guaranteed contenders.

They cant. Not at his current contract hit and with only one year remaining, and everyone knowing they pretty much had to release him. Plus, that's a really dirty way to handle your star player and historically "good soldier".

One down.

Yes. Just over $5M this year, and $11M next year.

This thread is worthless without pics... She's his wife now, btw. Yeah, I'd rather have her and be in SF than alone in Buffalo. I dont blame him one bit.

I'm pretty sure the Carrs already know to stay far away from Houston. Will be very interesting if LV tries to trade him there. That family is on record (often) talking about how that mismanaged franchsie ruined his brother's career. The Carrs are the original Watson. Would be hilarious if TWO QBs forced their way off the team in one year.

Starting to smell a little cultish...

Speaking for myself, yeah, pretty much. Expensive and old. If we are going to pay top dollar, I'd rather it be for a guy coming out of his rookie contract (or close enough to it like Dupree). Hughes and Addison are 32 and 33, Miller is 31. We need to get much younger at the position so we can nail it down for the future.
