What I can’t stand is the players association willingness to defend this scumbag. I guess they have to but it’s still gross and not a good look. 

Yeah the NFLPA going from an idea of unionizing and protecting players health and whatever to better call saul defense lawyers is pretty lame. They should have their own internal guidelines of how to handle misconduct before it even gets to this level of representing guys. At least like "this is out of our bounds, good luck explaining your weird personal poo in court"

When the OP isn't bright enough to realize the appeal is to make the suspension LONGER lol.

Yeah I comprehended that part just fine. My question is in regards to the appeal possible allowing Watson to play while until its resolution.

It sounds like the first 6 games won't be affected by any appeal.

There is a remote possibility for that if he or the NFLPA were to secure an injunction that prevented the suspension from starting.

That's highly unlikely though given that neither party had expressed a desire to appeal the original suspension, only a lengthened one.

How about the possibility he serves 6 games, and then plays a couple while waiting for the court verdict, and then gets the full year suspension and sits again?

      Crazy stat

      By Luuuuuuuuuuke59 · Posted

      The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      By 45catfan · Posted

      This KC team isn't the juggernaut it once was.  How many one score games have they won this season?  How many of those one score wins would probably have been loses if Mahomes wasn't the QB?  Their secondary is vulnerable and it was obvious today.  Grandpa Thielen was able to get open at will all game long. Bryce played well, but thinking this is the exact same KC defense Young was able to move the ball against as last year isn't going to compute.  Last year's KC defense was #2 overall.  They have regressed. I've said it before, Bryce can move the ball before the red zone, but once there, he struggles.  He is not a threat with his legs and the passing windows get much tighter.  He's not turning the ball over, so that is a great place to start and build upon.  I still question much better he can get.  Beyond a game manager?  I highly doubt it.
