My totally personal based-on-nothing guess is that the wiser heads really want to IR Hyde (and likely wanted to before the Dallas game) but Hyde is fighting it tooth and nail.

 

I've had the same thought. But then I have also been drunk for about 7 days straight so don't take too much notice of me....

Yes Nathan P5t5rman has fooled a lot of front offices and coaches.

 

Peterdude is just Catnip for Coaches, I swear it.   Something about him must just be irresistable

He's still in the league, you know - with the Bears

 

Spotrac gives his career earnings as $7.4M

 

That's right, $7.4M for a guy who has started 5 NFL games (1-4 record) and thrown 4 TD to 13 INT

 

He's kind of like the Buddy Holly (or Elvis Costello) of NFL QB - for you youngsters, that'd be the ordinary-looking guy in the thick birth-control glasses who made every guy in HS think "hey, if that dude could be a rock star then why couldn't I?"

From all accounts, Peterman is a whiteboard wizard who seduces coaches with knowledge of the game. It's just too bad for him that his arm makes Tua look like Dan Marino.

Hope I’m wrong on him but besides being a physical specimen of a human he doesn’t impress me as a WR. He didn’t do much with Anthony Richardson as his QB and doesn’t pass the eye test when it comes to being an NFL WR. But who knows maybe he got in the jugs machine hard while on IR and learned how to play the position from Diggs and how to snag a ball with his hands from Kincaid 

And block like Davis?

I had a classmate like that.  Knew as much every professor he had a class with but when he got to a test he froze up.

He met with dean, dean was convinced he was too good to lose and gave instructions for professors to give him oral tests.

Professors giving students oral tests is a bit tricky in liberal colleges. There's too many variations on what is considered a test.

There's actually a long history of oral examinations in liberal colleges, dating back to the very first universities in Medieval Europe.  It wasn't until the late 19th-19th century that University examinations began to shift from oral to written, and some oral examinations were retained at Oxford (and I think Cambridge) into the 20th century. 

 

They're still part of post-graduate education, including in the US, in the form of oral preliminary and thesis defense exams for  PhD (US) and "viva voce" exams (Europe).

I'm surprised Florida will even have colleges/universities in 20 years with the way things are going... might as well call them institutions...
