I think you need to fix the thread title. You quit...

No, i just dislike it when people assert something as an established fact (with nothing to back it up) when they actually have no idea whether it will happen or not.

It’s possible. It’s insane that they took Tua at 5 with all the medical questions, when Herbert was just sitting there for them. The Phins had three first round picks last year and may have whiffed on all three, although the tackle they drafted played pretty well, despite being a reach at that spot.

You 100 percent do not know that. Don’t announce it like it’s an established fact.

😆😆😆😆😆😆😆

C’mon man, didn’t you see all those games he won at Alabama? 😅 No way is Tua 6’1”

But I don’t think they ever announced that Rosen was their starting QB for the next season. That’s the whole reason for this article.

Based on Grier’s comments, they’re definitely not drafting another QB

My favorite part of the article is the player who’s gripping about the Dolphins having to compete with Josh Allen for the next ten years, and their inability to do so with Tua. Many fan comments are in a similar vein.😀

Even in his rookie year, Josh was not 5’10”, with a noodle arm, so no.

McDermott’s game day coaching has improved enormously. It’s now right up there with the best in the league. Of course it helps having better players, too....

Great. Maybe the Colts will lend us Deforrest Buckner for this weekend...

Yep, probably one of the main reasons Pederson was fired, although I don't think Wentz is salvageable.

I think Ravens’ DC is going through interviews, as well.

As we saw in the Tampa game on Saturday and the Saints game last night, an elite pass rusher (or even two) can be schemed against and neutralized, especially if you have a veteran QB who can get rid of the ball quickly and if the refs allow almost limitless holding, which now seems to be the case in the NFL. A true number 1 receiver is much more difficult to neutralize and really can only be done if you have a Jalen Ramsey or Darrell Revis on the roster. No team has been able to stop Diggs this year, although Ramsey did a very good job on him. A true number 1 WR also opens things up for your other receivers and your running game.

Absolutely. If bums like Doug Marrone, Gregg Williams, Rex Ryan and Mike Mularkey can get second (and third) chances as HC, Leslie Frazier most certainly deserves another one...He seems like a class act who is respected by all...not a bad guy to be leading your team.

I think he just pissed too many people off within the organization. Seems like a pretty abrasive guy.

So much for the Jets trading a first round pick for him...

Take a look at the date of my post...

You're overthinking this. The fact is, having a really good kicker, as opposed to an average or above average kicker, is probably worth 20-30 points per season, and you never know when those points are going to show up. In Saturday's game, if you just switched kickers, the Bills probably lose that game. Obviously, if you switch QBs the Bills lose, too, but the question was, which is the most important position other than QB. Now I'm not saying I'd rather have Bass than Stephon Diggs or Tre White, but I do think the importance of place kickers in the NFL is massively underrated, especially in the playoffs, where the pressure is greatest and the margin for error is narrowest. For example, it's not crazy to think that the Pats would have won two less Super Bowl rings without Adam Vinatieri. Yes, kickers are paid less than those other positions, but that doesn't answer the question. NFL salaries are not a perfect marketplace. I would argue that kickers are drastically undervalued by NFL GMs as well as fans because they don't like the idea that football games (and championships) are often decided by scrawny little kickers who couldn't catch a football or make a tackle if their lives depended on it.

From what I read, the dead cap hit would be significant, but manageable for Houston. It’s never really happened before, but Houston is in a uniquely difficult predicament. Maybe it’s not likely, but it’s possible, and actually makes some sense. It should not be dismissed out of hand.

What scares me most about the Ravens is how well coached they are, in all three phases. Kinda like Indy.

I don’t remember that about the Raiders game (I know it was cold but don’t remember snow), but I do remember Kelly shredding the Dolphins in the snow in the divisional game.

Well, now we know that those who were praying for the Steelers were right. That’s a bad football team. How they were ever 11-0 is one of the great mysteries...

Revisiting this post 36 hours after the Bills won their first playoff game in 25 years, largely because our kicker was better than the Colts’ kicker.
