Cutting the idiot contracts we signed. Tre immediately hit the shitter once he finally got his non-one year deal.

This. 100% this. You want to max those guys always produce and it is a year to year deal. See Boston, Tre.

High production in the slot doesn't mean you are more than a slot guy. There is more to it than raw statistics.

Lol. I love how this is entirely framed as if the Texans have all the "choice" in this matter. You are a weird dude.

I actually laughed aloud at this post. Congrats on that OP.

No it doesn't. All of that other poo you invented in your head. You literally cannot post a single article with any of the details of the nature of the discussions with the Texans or what was said or how it was said or anything of the sort. You are literally pulling this out of your ass to suit your own extremely weird internal narrative. It's pretty much what you do in just about any discussion here. The level of confidence about so many of these things you say without the slightest bit of actual information is staggering. Your takes would make David Newton blush.

He is the highest paid RB in the NFL. That is far, far from being reasonable. Even without the bonus hit, which would stay with us, there are not many teams in the NFL that want to pay a RB $8.5-12 mil/year. That is why there are only 6 other RB's in the NFL making more than $8 mil/year next season. Of that group of the top 7 paid running backs in 2021, only one team was a playoff participant this past season and those 7 teams went a combined 41-70. As has been discussed before on this forum, RB's have been rather devalued in the past 15+ years of the NFL. It was an extremely stupid extension and made doubly worse by the fact that we didn't have to sign it when we did(with two years remaining on his contract). To pile on even further, he probably isn't the highest paid RB in the NFL without Marty Hurney as our GM signing a terrible extension at a terrible time.

Well, since you have all this insight in to these situations, how about you give us an article with the details of that "polite request" and the "gentlemanly way he approached the situation?"

Boy...what I would do to trade up for Herbert in hindsight. That kid is phenomenal.

The call was wrong based on who we ended up getting and for how much. We'd be staring at ~$18 mil more in cap space for this offseason.

So when he told them to release him, this was not a demand? Like I said, your double standards are quite obvious.

He did demand to leave. You just ignored that. But, I think I have come to expect the rather obvious double standards from you.

I have red/green deficiency, so I don't know that I would even notice.

He's a starting caliber NFL QB. Teddy isn't.

So much innuendo packed in that.

Still loaded with an elite defense, as well. I'd say they are the odds on favorite in the NFC West after getting Stafford. It's gonna be wild if the 49ers stand pat on Jimmy G and end up in the cellar there. What a waste of a good team that will be.

Sign me up for Rams bad.

Well, clearly he is a whiny little bitch that can't complete his contractual agreements to Cal McNair and the Texans franchise, right? Otherwise why would he pitch a hissy fit and want out? Maybe he should focus on building a winning team in Houston.

He also knew a lot about jeans, I have been told.

Well maybe if JJ Watt wasn't such a whiny little bitch, it wouldn't be a problem, right?

I am just fine with a post draft trade. Maybe we might have a newly acquired QB to sweeten the pot.

He started to fall off late in the season. I believe the Deep Ball Project also highlighted that his descent in those stats the past two seasons also is showing the beginning of the end is probably here. Doesn't mean he still isn't a very good QB but we have seen how some of those very good QB's can all of a sudden take a nose dive when they reach "the end."

Why didn't JJ Watt put his big boy pants on?

I have mentioned it a few times in various threads.
