https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/jake-bates-goes-five-for-five-with-game-winner-for-michigan He was 5-5 yesterday, with another 60 yarder, and the game-winner.

I actually thought of this when I saw the thread and said, "Nope, keeping my mouth shut."

Beane said he could care less who the Chiefs were picking. When the Chiefs took Worthy, Beane knew what the Pats were trying to do. They were moving for Legette or Coleman, one of the remaining 2nd Tier WR's, to pair with their newly drafted QB. Beane knew their cupboard was pretty bare and said, "Nope. Sorry, not Sorry."

Not sure if this got merged into the Random Talking Head thread or it was posted there initially. Still, you love......uh.... I mean hate...... yeah, this is terrible, to see it everywhere.

JAG City. Pass. Ride it out. Let the young guys play at this point. Make an in season move before the trade deadline if the experiment fails.

Yes, the REAL burning question this off-season. Have the Bills done enough to address the PK position?

And why is that? Like he's that bad of a 3rd/4th option? Like you can just ignore the rest because you don't like him? Sure, OK

No. In general, I'm not that interested in "famous" people from any walk of life. Movie stars, musicians, athletes, whoever, just doesn't move the needle for me at all. I don't need their autograph nor would being in their presence be any different to me than anyone else's.

Have you taken a look at their roster? Hurts, Saquon, AJ Brown, DeVonta Smith, DeVante Parker, Parris Campbell, they drafted Will Shipley, and they still have Kenneth Gainwell. I think they have a big time bounce back year and take that division with ease, especially if Barkley is healthy all season long. He is going to eat in that offensive scheme. It wouldn't surprise me one bit if they ended up in the SB again.

They have Deebo, Aiyuk, McCaffery, Kittle, and Juszczyk. They are hardly lacking talent at the skill positions.

Claypool is big, but he's got 4.4 speed to go with that 6'5" frame. Claypool isn't any kind of route technician or anything though. He kind of rounds off his Slants a bit, and doesn't really have that snap in change of direction. He does have really good body control and makes great plays along the lines, whether the sidelines or the back of the end zone. Shorter is big, but just a middling athlete. I do remember hearing he had good hands though, only dropping one pass in 114 targets at Florida. He's another intermediate to deep route guy. Hollins is another big guy with the same sort of MO as both Claypool and Shorter. Hollins' career year was 2 years ago in LV. He had 57 catches for 690 yards and 4 TD's. He did next to nothing last year in Atlanta though. Out of these three, I see probably two making the roster and one of those primarily for ST's. If we keep 6 WR's, this is whom I expect those to be: 1. Keon Coleman 2. Khalil Shakir 3. Curtis Samuel 4. Mack Hollins 5. Chase Claypool 6. Andy Isabella Then I expect them to PS Hamler, Shorter, and one of Shavers or Thompson.

Now, me being a self-proclaimed Notre Dame homer, I don't mind this move at all. I banged the table for him back during that draft. His first couple seasons were solid when he had Big Ben chucking him the rock. After that, his ego kicked in and it's been a downward spiral ever since. Still, he's only 25, the talent has been on display previously, and there is hope for redemption. Hopefully it happens here.

It's definitely an unfair advantage for the Jags, the 2nd week at least. They get a whole week to adapt where the other team comes in on a whim and has to play a game. Hopefully, it's not us going over there this year and getting screwed out of a home game like someone else mentioned.

Nice clickbait title. Well played, sir.

Nice try AI. We all know Josh is laid up with Hailee somewhere.

Or settle all of his lawsuits for various assaults

That's an insane amount of $$$ to turn down. But, if I had $$$ like an NFL owner, I would probably not be worried about it either if I just loved being around and a part of the game. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/dolphins-not-for-sale-after-stephen-ross-rejects-10-billion-offer

Another 🤡 response. Here, go find some more to add to my amusement for the day. https://www.twobillsdrive.com/community/profile/7133-h2o/content/

I hope Beane wouldn't be the fall guy because I'm sure that McDermott full on has his hands in everything as well. I also agree with your sentiment about Mahomes and Andy Reid. I think that is the biggest difference in all of this. It's a tough place to be in because I don't hate either of them like some people want to try and portray. I haven't been one of the constant "fire this person" or "fire that person" people. That's why I say this is a make or break year because of how everything has unfolded. I don't think people quite understand what I am getting at when I say this. I think that they will get to be here in 2025 unless there is an extreme drop-off. The only way they are ousted is if they go something like 5-12 and McDermott loses the team. I do think that the way everything plays out, as I explained initially, will make or break them. If the draft, and what they did for WR group with Allen works out, they will be heralded as roster savants. If the WR's they passed on excel on their respective teams, but our WR group does not here, then the heat will be on. If they just handed KC Tyreek 2.0 (which I don't believe he is at all imo), then the heat will be on. If the rest of the players drafted look like real impact players for this team, then they will be held in high regard. If they are just more average guys, then the heat will be on. This is what I mean by make or break, that the ENTIRETY of everything that has taken place this offseason will make or break this regime. If it works out, if this looks like they've reloaded, they will be here for the foreseeable future. If the decisions look to have failed, and we handed KC another All-Pro in the process, then I think the heat is on.

They drafted Brian Thomas Jr. Zay Jones dead cap figure was also only $6.5M and they still have $34M in space after that. Jones also could have asked for his release after they drafted BTJ because he knew that he would be the odd man out between BTJ, Gabe, Kirk, and himself.

We already signed Quintez Cephus.

I could care less about hockey. Never been a fan. Reid and Tomlin have SB rings. Reid is probably the best offensive mind the game has seen the last 25 years, knowing how to maximize his guys' talents. And no, I think Reid lets Spagnuolo run his defense exactly the way he wants to run his defense. The track record of his defense is proven, as he's had a hand in 4 SB wins now.
