I guess that makes Matt Rhule 0-12 against ranked teams now

They already have a thread up "Matt Rhule sucks" lmao

Definitely looks like a Rhule lead team lmao

Where all those cocky Nebraska fans saying how it was all the Panthers fault and not Rhule's? Mighty quiet now lol

lol

That would mean that Ridder passed the ball more than 25+ times, which I just don't see happening. They are going to try and run the ball down our throats early on.

Well if that were the case, then why the hell did they not just trade him for the 2 1st rounders then? Make no mistake, if Burns does not get a new contract, we will be having new people in that front office.

I've been in neutral mode ever since the mismanagement of Cam's career, and Tepper buying the franchise (really wanted Ben Navarro). It has been fail after fail after fail ever since Tepper has taken over. Until proven otherwise, we are a bottom 5 franchise (or at least have been for the past 5 years).

Piss poor management. 1) The fact that they didn't accept that trade of two 1st rounders and a 2nd 2) The fact that AFTER they declined the traded, didn't offer him a new contract right then and there 3) Waited until near season to finally get serious with contract negotiations 4) Now we are going to overpay for a pass rushing specialist who is terrible in run defense. Just terrible decisions all around, and our record over the years have shown it.

I don't care who's out, I'm never betting against Mahomes in a primetime game, especially at home.

Chris Jones not playing, Nick Bosa most likely not going to play, I'd be HIGHLY surprised if Burns plays without a contract this Sunday.

And if we're being honest, I would 100% rather have Crosby. He dominated as a pass rusher, AND had a 82.5 run-defense grade that ranked third among qualifying edge defenders. I thinks it's actually amusing Burns thinks he deserve to be paid more than Crosby.

Can't make a prediction until we know whether Burns is playing or not.

I would do that trade in a heart beat.

If he's asking for Nick Bosa money?! Yes. I've been adamant about my feelings on Burns. He is an above average pass rusher who is below average in run defense. I have also never seen him absolutely take over a game and willed us to a win, which is what he is going to be paid to do. What happens when we pay him all that money and STILL get gashed in the run game? I'm not paying him as one of the best DEs in the game if he only affects passing downs. We might as well kept Reddick for less money if that were the case. And YES, I 100% would have taken those two 1st rounders (and a 2nd rounder was rumored in the deal) for a pass rushing specialist.

As I've said all along, 2 firsts was an overpay for Burns. We should've done the deal. Now we get this. Fitt ain't it. Those two 1st rounders would have probably both been top 5 picks as Kupp is seeing a specialist and Stafford's spinal problems. Was a dumb decision then not to take t hose picks, and it's still a dumb decision now.

This is exactly why I wanted to accept that trade. I had a feeling this was how it was going to go down. By rejecting multiple 1st rounders, you basically told Burns and the NFL where you value him, but now you are trying to negotiate a contract that doesn't match that sentiment. I had a feeling Burns was going to overvalue himself in these negotiations. The truth is Burns is not worth the money he is asking for. You can't just be a pass running specialist (is he even that?) and expect to paid like the top dogs, but that's exactly what he's expecting, which is why I would have taken those two 1st rounders in a heart beat.

Great GM'ing there

What games you guys watching now? Need a good one to watch after that Colorado game.

Hmm, which coach would you put your money on in having his team ready to play next week? Coach Prime or Matt Rhule? lol

OMG THEY FUGGIN DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Way more impressive than Rhule's debut that's for sure haha

He keeps playing like this he will creep into the 1st round whenever he's eligible.

What a fuggin game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also, Shedeur Sanders is ridiculous!! Dude is throwing PERFECT passes
