They wouldn't, but Kraft certainly would. Here we are again, WEO, as predicted. Same team with something sketchy about them, over and over and over. If the three games with obviously garbage game changing calls (jets, Texans, Steelers) were called correctly (not to mention Bills and Charger games) they'd be fighting to make the playoffs last week, not sitting at 1 overall. All called by the same one replay official. Sure sounds to me like the potential for corruption got a lot easier in going to centralized replay. I wonder if Kraft was for or against that? Hey, how's that Alfonzo Dennard suspension coming?

You must have obviously missed some choice Belicheat moments like sending Devon McCourty out to face the media in his place after a tough playoff loss, or his running off the field to cry rather than shake Tom Coughlin's hand after "18 and D'oh" SB loss. Those were just a couple of his amazingly classless moves. To be hating on Mike Tomlin when you love a classless jerk like Belicheat is amazing to me...... PS. Let me know when Tomlin gets accused in court of banging someone else's wife. https://deadspin.com/188681/men-keep-your-wives-from-bill-belichick And compared to Kraft, who within about 6 months of his wife's death was dating a blond floozy young enough to be his granddaughter, Beli gets points for going semi-age appropriate with his mistress.....

Not sure if it's been mentioned above, but the other benefit of Cousins is it allows us to use all 4 of our top picks in the first and second round next year on other positions of need. That will also help our cap by hopefully providing 4 relatively cheap starters for the next 4-5 years. Compare that to the other option of packaging 2-4 of those picks to move up to get a rookie who may be great, but who may not,

Personally, I'm kind of shocked that more people haven't picked up on the fact that Tony Corrente, tonight's ref, just so happened to be the same ref who robbed the Jets of a game-winning TD vs the Pats* a couple months back. What a coincidence......

Looking at the low low post count, I might guess a Pats* troll is more likely.

I was actually at that game, too, with a grade school friend of mine--we were so wrapped up in snowmobile suits that we looked like Ralphie's brother on "A Christmas Story". How we got to pee that day without it taking a full quarter to take it all off and put it all on, I'll never know. My actual first game, however, was during the last year at the Rockpile. We saw Johnny U stomp us 17-0, the same score of my second game against Miami the following year. It was only at my 3rd game one further year later (one game a year--our big annual father-son Bills game trip) that I actually saw them score. A 16-7 or so victory over the Dick Butkus-led Bears. Our seats for my first game were in the very top row of War Memorial Stadium--I could literally look over the back to the street below. Other than the losing, good times, man, good times.....

Unfortunately, last time I looked, I didn't see too many difference makers in FA this year. Maybe we make a run at Lotuleilei due to the McDermott connection and our glaring DT need.

This is why we can't have nice things.....

That should be worth at least a game off.

Fins win

On the play before the TD Gronk obviously pushed off--no call, of course. It's like the WWF sometimes where NE* is concerned.....

Utter garbage PI call on that TD drive. Par for the course when you play the Cheats*....

And probably against a better D, too (I say that based solely on recruiting potential, as I'm not too up on the Cougars).

The bar really was pretty low last year, wasn't it?

Link to your second point? Is that in absolute numbers terms presumably? If so, it doesn't take into effect the fact that there are 6-7 times more whites than blacks in this country (making blacks 3x more likely than whites to face this). The relevant statistic would take that disparity in population size into account.

Too bad that there are about 7 times as many whites in the US (maybe more).......

Or when he and his father were sued by Nixon's DOJ for not renting to blacks, or when he told a subordinate in the '90's that he didn't want any black accountants, only Jewish ones, or his not wanting to see black dealers at his casinos, or when he pretended not to know who David Duke was last year so as to not have to disavow him (which he eventually did under more pressure), or his full-page ad against the Central Park Five (later exonerated by DNA evidence). That's just off the top of my head. You could almost literally go on all day. I'd forgotten what a cesspool this forum was. Now I remember why I rarely visit it......

Tamir Rice case. How many white 12-year olds get shot by cops for playing with a toy gun? (And then have the cops lie about it for good measure).

And you can't spell......

That was a garbage call--he threw the flag out of embarrassment

This wins the internets today!😝 Something else he has in common with Krafty Bob, he of the blond bimbo actress girlfriend a quarter his age he picked up a few months after his wonderful (and after reading about her, that's not sarcasm) wife, who was the original source of Bob's $, passed away.

Bingo--totally agree. Those 2 are the absolute caricature of the greedy owner who will do anything to win, rules or fair play be d*mned, and then love to play the sanctimonious good guy. They're both beyond disgusting.....

I signed in just now to post the exact same thing--putrid......

Bingo--so little empathy and understanding among so many people today.

You mean that contract that the team can just rip up at any time by cutting a player? Those are effectively one way contracts in many cases. I don't begrudge someone like Donald, one of the best in the League, wanting to get paid. His career could end on any play.
