  1. He's terrible but since we're on the hook, keep him as trade fodder in case some random team needs to tank for the #1 pick including us if the season goes poorly.
  2. Older women know things, especially when you're only 18 or 19.
  3. No one will ever convince me that game wasn't determined before the ball was ever snapped. No way were they going to let PM be 1-3 in SBs. If that had been TB12 instead of Cam half that defense would have been ejected. Manning losing to an upstart young star doing everything the NFL hated was never going to happen.
  4. To be fair, I think part of the reasons fans have been so bad is typically as a fan base you may have 1 or 2 moves that you could "predict" would turn out poorly. Since 18, it's felt like about 75% of the moves have been so blatantly awful that we were calling them failures when they happened before the so called experts. It's hard to root for a team by guys you look at and say I could do a better job in all aspects of building a team (FA, draft, contracts, coaches), and you're right.
  5. So was our braintrust and a lot of this board was perfectly content to overlook all those accusations.
  6. Hopefully after this season we can turbo poo rhule and his collection of lousy QBs.
  7. Depends on how much of those numbers the receivers are responsible for getting. YAC would play a big role if it's a lot of short passes and screens.
  8. There will always be someone to buy the stuff. The point of lacing weed is to use a recreational drug to get them hooked on something much stronger. It's about making money. You can get things for pennies on the dollar in trade. You may lose a few small time customers but you can make 10x the money off the ones you get hooked. It's all about volume. Losses are acceptable.
  9. Probably should avoid any comments about finishing early as well.
  10. True. It's just with college fans built in from the student body, there's an inherent loyalty that you don't really get from the NFL. The NFL is always trying to attract new customers and to get big dollars for big tickets, it always has to be the newer shinier experience. I'm sure college will progress that direction now that players are being paid, but it won't go as far. Michigan - Ohio State in the big house was probably my 2nd best football game experience only trumped by inaugural game at Ericcson Stadium beating down the Falcons with my dad.
  11. College football games are much different than NFL in my experience. NFL is solely about making money. College is more about football experience.
  12. You have to make sure to hold your block for that squirter out of the backfield.
  13. We're getting our own draft grade from Walterfootball. Any obscenely stupid lopsided assine trade that would be rejected even on Madden will be called a Kupchak.
  14. Judging by what's been said, UM was toxic.
  15. Won't have a 1st round pick to take him with because we'll have used it to acquire the services of the one and only Daniel Jones.
  16. And as we all know, there's something to be said for being in a bad work environment.That poo just eats away at you.
  17. The only thing that will bug me really is if Muma turns out to be a good LB and CJ flops. That was our pick and Muma is a player I was pretty interested in and had him slated to go mid to late 2nd.
  18. I cleaned up my diet a couple of years ago going ketovore and organic. On the occasions I do eat processed food, I get sick fairly quickly. It's amazing how that stuff tastes so bad now, like chewing on plastic.
  19. Definitely sad to see a young man pass in the prime of his life. It is interesting though how many young people are passing from so many different things. I read a study result yesterday showing how many chemicals are present in young men's stuff. It definitely makes you consider how much crap gets put in our bodies from a wide variety of sources. We're poisoning ourselves and don't even know what long term and short term effects from something as simple as a ear of corn or a nonstick pan might be.
  20. He was in Jax under Meyer. That situation was just awful. Not saying he gets a pass, but he gets a little grace. Rhule isn't the guy I trust to turn careers around, but maybe CJ really needed to get out of that cess pool in Jax.
  21. While there is some comparison between Watson and Snyder, Kraft, and Jones, there weren't 26 allegations. Single instance of getting a happy ending is quite different than what Watson is alleged to have done. I'm not defending the owners by any stretch, it's just IF the allegations are true, that would make Watson a serial predator and there's nothing similar to compare that too. If the NFL does nothing, it's going to piss off a large amount of female fans and a lot of male ones too. Cleveland really fugged themselves with this situation, and it only makes me wonder even more what the hell Tepper was thinking pursuing him so vigorously. Anyone with any common sense knew there was no way this was over.
  22. I'm not saying Icky's a bust. But there are things that happened last year that didn't make sense. Rhule said publicly he evaluated an all pro LT as a guard. Same thing he said about BC. He was more concerned about arm length than ability to play the position. Anyone who watched him play inside could tell he was not a guard or center. He didn't have the power to play there. Irving and Elfein were always huge WTF signings. Neither had a history of being healthy or very good, but we went after them on day 1 in FA because they fit the versatile lineman role. Just because you're a FA doesn't mean you should be starting. Normally those 2 would have been week 2 or 3 of FA moves for some team. I realize BC didn't play against elite talent in preseason but he actually looked better than Irving. His form was better and more fluid. His feet were quicker. He just looked better. Then we get into the whole part of trying to teach him to play 4 different positions as a rookie. Rhule loves guys to be able to play all over the line. Sometimes you just need to let them play where they are best. No one who looked out our OL last year game 1 thought, man this is a good line. Nothing we did on our offensive line made sense last year. Armchair GM, we would have Slater over Horn and BC would be doing what he does somewhere else.
