Low Positive

The Sixers were the real "process." The Sixers had three seasons between 2013 and 2016 with fewer than 20 wins in an 82-game season and it was entirely intentional. They had the rookie of the year in 2013-2014 in Michael Carter Williams and then they traded at the deadline the very next year because he was too good. Even the Browns didn't tank that good.

I have a question for many of you. Would you rather lose out to get a better draft pick? I think that there are people in here that would.

I can't either. He takes such joy in the game. He's like the anti-Belichick.

Washington trading both Chase and Sweat seemed like a strange move until word came down that it was on the owner's demand. Josh Harris has led two complete rebuilds in professional sports (Sixers and Devils) the likes of which are almost never seen in the NFL. I expect them to rip it down to the studs this spring and intentionally lose games for multiple years. The next step is to find their Sam Hinke.

I know that he was a difficult man and I probably agree with him on very few things, but that man to man D and motion offense was a thing of beauty. Hop Hoo Hoo Hoosiers!

It’s the running. Your team defends everything and he still gets the first with his legs. Fans hate that. I know that I did when Baker did it us.

Wow. They really are mailing in this regular season. I guess they can do that because their division is a joke, but they also might be a bit burnt out.

You have to imagine that Beane called Kirksey as soon as Milano went down in London and was told that he's enjoying retirement.

He looks like a kid whose mom made him wear a coat under his costume because it is cold on Halloween.

I know. It's OK to say that the Bengals are a very good team that poses problems for the Bills. But posters on TBD are making them out to be the Greatest Show on Turf on offense and the 85 Bears on defense. They are a very good cap-era NFL team, as are we. Should be a good game.

And Kelce was at the World Series last night in Arizona. He was also at the WS in Dallas on the Friday before Sunday's game against the Broncos.

Trey Hendrickson didn't practice either with a foot injury.

I would stay in a different hotel. I would hire a different bus company. I would take a different route to the game. Make everything different.

As I said in the other thread, they had no choice. The Bengals choose black, which they always do for a night game unless they go with that awful Sigfried and Roy white tiger look. So, a white jersey was a must. But last year, in the Hamlin game. they were in the all whites. So, I would think that just for superstition they would choose a different combo. The only choice that they had was this.

This is a smart move, for the same reason that the Bucs should be starting Trask. If you're not in actual contention, it's better to see what you have than to keep playing the retread.

All of these moves are cool, but we can't cut any DTs just yet. Somebody has to play on Sunday night.

Joe Burrow, at the core of his very being, wants to hold the ball and throw bombs to Chase. The Bengals coaching staff has had to really work on getting Joe to take the check-downs. Sound familiar?

I know that everyone hates this uniform combo, but I just checked and the Bills were wearing the all-whites last year in Cincinnati. They had to wear a white jersey because the Bengals chose black, so I understand why they would want to do something different.

Saw this on a Raider message board

Poyer was also drafted as a CB by the Eagles, who was converted to Safety by the Browns immediately after they claimed him off of waivers.

Can an unpaid intern act as a shadow OC?

Right? They even botched the coach firing. As if getting killed by "Secret Bagent Man" and the Bears wasn't reason enough to do this. But you can buy your Devonte Adams Jets jersey. That is as good as a done deal.

He'll bring up Mahomes at least 5 times in the game on Sunday night. He used to do that with Tom Brady. Not to mention, when I just want to watch TV I have to see crap like this. He never goes away.

It even started going away before the Pandemic. Vegas used to to be the place of cheap rooms, cheap buffets and prime rib, and free drinks. They made it back and then some at the blackjack tables. Now, it's all luxury hotels, high-end nightclubs, and $300 tomahawk steaks. I guess that's what happens when you can gamble in almost any city in the United States.

Feels like Devonte Adams is the defacto GM right now in Vegas.
