I mean honestly most of us probably occasionally stop by the official site (or used to) so it's not like the content is hard to find without the bot.

I love sarcasm. I almost fell for it.

I like the Flutie comp. Garcia had a ton of moxie and the those 49er teams were pretty good too. In an ideal situation and Bryce gets some dawg in him, the Garcia comp could be apt.

I blame the team. Bryce is on the team. He's the starting QB and lead us to a whopping 14 points. There's a trend here being we can't stretch the field and teams realize that. He's not solely to blame, but he can't be held blameless either.

And veteran QBs even as mediocre as they were. No, Rhule sucked, period. Frank is charged with a rebuild no matter how he twists himself into a pretzel to call it otherwise.

Tepper wants sycophants, it makes him feel important.

My comp would be Ty Detmer in his two seasons with Philly. Not a horrible QB and very serviceable, but not your franchise QB.

Watson had 20+ women saying his rub and tugs were not consenting. Fully guaranteed $230M contract!!!!

They wanted a point guard, they got a point guard. In the right offense, Bryce could be very good. In an offense that's about taking shots down field and going vertical versus horizontal...he'll bust.

Mmmmmmm....wurst with some red kraut.

That got us Cam Newton and over a decade of labor peace. I can see why you are so upset.

He came out in the Atlanta game with a huge chip on his shoulders and balled out for the first quarter. Burns has been barely a blimp on the radar since then.

He's retired???????? Crap, I thought we were about the same age.

Why we are treating Burns as an untouchable is beyond me. Patrick Mahommes is off limits for trade. That makes sense. Burns though? I simply don't get it.

Can I get a recap? Here's what I remember reading that was made public: Allegedly tapped girls on the tushy, one saying he bushed her side boob while holding open a door for her and the racist thing was saying a scout had a really wide nose--who happened to be black. That was the extent I can recall that was made public. Now, is that bad, sure. Bad enough to shame into selling a team? No. Could it have been worse? Sure, but I can't recall it and how the media loves sensationalism, I don't they held back any of the explicit details assuming there were more egregious acts.

The reason he dedicated his time and energy to bring a franchise here, right? Totally makes sense. Too many people put too much stock in the midfield logo thing. Ultimately the organization and League he loved stabbed him in the back.

Correct, not forced to sell, but the media onslaught with the embarrassment it brought to the team, League and his family, Jerry took the quick and less messy way out. He could have fought to keep the team considering the infractions were, on the grand scale of things, very minor, but he chose to make the situation go away as soon as possible. Remember, he set a self-imposed deadline for the sale to ensure a quick resolution for everyone involved. I also remember Tepper not having the highest bid, but that's who the League wanted.

Dude was 80+. Really? Jerry could barely stay awake in his box for 1pm games.

^^^^This. They knew Jerry love the League and if quietly asked to step away--notice I didn't say forced--they knew he'd likely go without a fight. Snyder, being the prick he is, was going to go down swinging no matter how much evidence of wrongdoing there was.

If you want some wins and build confidence with the rest of the team, then yes, it's fine to sit a rookie QB for some time. College teams bench under-performing starting QBs all the time. Somehow in the NFL it's more acceptable to keep banging your head against a brick wall just in the name of getting experience?

That's the hair that broke the camel's back? Richardson had a couple of supporters in Jones and Rooney, but it seems like he fell out of favor with the rest of the League's owners. I personally feel it was internal politics. Richardson was very old school with old money. Anyway, had this been Jerry JONES, no way he sells the Cowboys and they haven't done anything since the mid 90's. If it had to do with winning, Bidwell would have sold the Cardinals years ago with all the scandals they've had with a poo franchise and product.

Otherwise know as casual Friday in the rest of the corporate world.

Height of the MeToo movement. He was made out to be an example. Owners/players have since been caught doing WAAAAAYYYYYYYYYY worse things with little to zero consequences. Hell, Watson got to be the highest paid player in the League out of his sexual exploits. It's like he got rewarded!

I got it dude, you hate Frank and going winless is a necessary evil. Getting Bryce his "experience" is the best way to get what you want.

The shaded area in blue is all the defense has to worry about at this stage of his career (ball at the 20). Not my best artist work, but I'm no Bob Ross. Anyway, that's a LOT of the field the defense doesn't have to worry about.
