Maybe Allen learns to read a defence better, but backyard football will be tough to play at 35. Expand Hey, I'm 35 and I feel pretty good! Allen will be able to play until he is 38 at least. It isn't the 90's anymore. QBs get protected and it has seriously extended their careers. Aaron Rodgers used to run around quite a bit and was still doing that in his late 30s. But he was good at avoiding contact. Allen will have to take that approach when he is a bit older. 2 Quote

Expand He cheated to get to all 4 SB, and NFL punished them for the cheating, so if that is your standard then so be it, it is a game so cheating makes you a loser in my mind. 1 1 Quote

Comebackkid Posted March 10 Posted March 10 by the time this contract ends who knows what will have become of the nfl. also its funny i was thinking how bad its going to suck not having Josh on the team anymore.. (one day) at least I can kick that to the back burner for a while. On 3/10/2025 at 1:35 AM, Doc Brown said: Wow. $250m guaranteed. See those numbers and us squabbling between Cook being worth $12m vs. $15m a year seems trivial. If he pays NYS taxes the state gets $248m. Expand doesnt he only pay ny state taxes if he resides on ny...or..i guess if he has a house he spends more than half the year in..damn... Quote

How does that make sense? Why not do an actual six year extension? Expand Original deal torn up for the new 6 year one. In the NFL contracts can always be terminated 3 Quote

The initial report is not an extension, it's a 6-year contract like you said. 1 Quote

Since1981 Posted March 10 Posted March 10 Good trade off. More guaranteed. Less total, that can be used on player. Let’s be clear too. $250M guaranteed is enough money for anything he or his fam could ever want. Quote
Mike in Horseheads Posted March 10 Posted March 10 Honestly, on a day to be happy about Josh being locked up for 6 years people are bitchin about the taxes he has to pay? I'm sure he and his agent are well aware about that. Maybe the guy doesn't care and likes it in Buffalo smh 1 Quote
