  1. Elam should be out there every down next week vs NE.
  2. It will be interesting to see what happens in Minnesota. Does JJ McCarthy get traded like Trent Green with the Rams after Warner took his job? If the Vikings re-sign Darnold they may be looking to trade McCarthy. If the Giants can't get Sanders or Ward, do they trade for McCarthy by either giving this year's 2nd and another pick, or trading next year's #1?
  3. I remember the debates in the drought years. There were plenty of fans advocating that in order to be a true fan you have to root for wins even if they're at the end of the season, are meaningless & cost the team draft position. I and with my fellow tank the end of the season games fans, were brutally flamed by those "root for wins every game" advocates. It now appears that many Giants fans understand that as a fan you can root for losses. I always said that fans who are rooting for meaningless wins are blurring the lines between team employees, who have to try to win, and fans, who have no such obligation. My rational was, as a fan, I can look at the big picture and want the better chance to draft an impact player-especially if the team needs a QB. I would say I was here before the players, coaches & GMs before they got here & I'll be here afterwards (although that may no longer be true at my age). So, I'll be rooting for the Bills to out-tank NE & cost them the #1 pick. I'll certainly be rooting for NE next Sunday, even if I'm watching with my Josh Allen jersey on.
  4. When are DBs going to learn to knock it down on 4th down? Kurt agreed with me on the broadcast.
  5. How many times are these guys going to say what a great coach Harbaugh is? After Staley, anyone could have improved the Chargers, maybe even Dick Jauron.
  6. He had the option of not signing a 2nd contract with the Bengals & signed it. So I doubt he had any interest of not signing with his home-state team out of college. If he gets really disgruntled & Mike Brown wants to punish him, he can trade him to the Browns, then Burrow will find out what real disfunction is.
  7. The Ozzie talk reminds me of how bad Buddy Nix was as GM. Ozzie retires & leaves by drafting Lamar Jackson, Buddy retires & leaves by drafting EJ Manuel.
  8. Daboll for developing Allen. Wade.
  9. FO yes, coaches no. In the Tyrod example, Pegula decided to bench Tyrod & fired the coach. What I don't know is if Rex wanted to start Tyrod and if that led to his immediate firing.
  10. Neither the Jets nor the Patriots will be tanking. The Jets are more likely to lose their last 2 than the Patriots because in the season finale, THE BILLS, will be de facto tanking by resting the starters. We might even see Frank Gore Jr getting carries at RB. The most interesting tank will be the Giants/Eagles finale. Will the Eagles, who appear to be locked into their playoff spot, tank the final game in an attempt to hurt the Giants draft spot? Awfully tempting to keep a division rival from getting a QB who could haunt them for years.
  11. Get Gregg Williams for $50 & he'll tell the groom he'll put a bounty on him if he cheats.
  12. FM. The game is bad enough without having to watch it. Ryan Leaf is the color guy on the radio broadcast.
  13. My radio feed on a local station is coming in fine.
  14. Now the people who bet Houston are crying.
  15. RGIII was Lamar's backup. He figures anyone who kept him on the bench must be MVP. 😃
  16. Spector to IRrelevant.
  17. Tony Soprano isn't a real person. I guess you never watched much MLB where managers lose it all the time when arguing with umpires. Go look up Earl Weaver, Billy Martin, Lou Pinella and their antics that caused them to get thrown out of games. The reason they did this was to fire up their teams and often times they got the desired effect.
  18. The most crying I've seen by a player is when Dexter Manley got banned by the NFL & cried like one of those preachers caught either stealing money or molesting people. For years I mocked Manley's press conference as the "I have sinned against the NFL" retirement. As far as football players crying, just watch a big time player retire or during a HOF induction speech. Plenty of tears & nobody condemns their emotional response (except for maybe the OP).
  19. Raiders dropped from 1 to 6 in the draft with today's win.
  20. Then they see the Jets go for 4th down on their own 33 & put the Rams in immediate field goal range. Same Old Jets.
  21. Refs promised a personal Taylor Swift concert after the game.
  22. Flag on the play: Giving Mahomes the stink eye.
  23. My biggest mistakes were loving the trade up for JP, then when he proved me wrong, thinking his replacement, Trent Edwards would be the next Joe Montana.
  24. They outsmarted the 6 teams that could have drafted Josh before the trade up. The only team that might not regret it is the final team of the 6, Tampa Bay, who used some of the picks acquired to help them win the Super Bowl with Brady. The rest have been mostly trash since 2018 although Indy had no idea Luck would retire. The worst is the Giants who one year later drafted Daniel Jones. They didn't outsmart Arizona, who also wanted Josh, they had the draft capital to outbid them. In reality, it was the Bills & Arizona who were the smart ones, but then Arizona picked an all-time bust, Mr. 9 mistakes.
  25. When Doug Flutie signed with the Chargers I signed up for their board to troll on him. I named myself Traitor on their board because by posting on another team's board I was being a traitor to the Bills.
