The Ravens can’t be this dumb? They’re a smart organization right?

That doesn't mean they want talk to him to find out if that is set in stone. 

They'd still have to offer a contract that he would agree to.

You can say that maybe they'd offer him a lesser contract than what's been advertised, but if they did why wouldn't the Ravens just match it?

I don't really see this going anywhere.

The cost. The falcons have a lot of holes on their roster and they might believe QB isn’t one of them. 

Their roster is barren. Stacking it with overpriced free agents coming to town for a payday, and not to win, won't matter without a quarterback.

They'll have to learn the hard way.

Never said they would offer a contract.  I just think they will reach out to see what he's really looking for.  Tepper wants a franchise qb and one just became available.  They are ready to do whatever it takes to get one. I would not dismiss the possibility they consider see what his asking price at least.

It set a precedent of guaranteed salary in literal terms, but it did not necessarily set an expectation of a guaranteed salary if you get what I'm saying.

Also, remember that was four years ago, and even with all the hoopla, his cap hit for 2018 was 12.6% (and 2019, 15.1% and 2020 10.6%). 

So yeah it was kinda the same, but still very different. The NFL is afraid that an LJ contract will actually set a trend, particularly with several high-level QBs coming up, not to mention Mahomes' re-upping.

I think people don't like Kirk Cousins so they don't want to mention that he actually started it.

I was reading something yesterday that said the Falcons have high hopes for Ridder.  It may be true or not (don't remember the source), but if there is any truth to it, they will continue to build the rest of the team and give him a chance for a year or two.

He didn't look bad his last couple games.  Give him an OL and a decent defense and it will be interesting to see how he develops....

      Unlikely, UNC fans don’t even care that Mack has owned Duke because at the end of the day it’s about winning the ACC, not beating Duke. If your only focus is on beating your rival then you’ll end up content year after year like NCSU fans. Now if we were a playoff contender then I’d definitely be upset but this is just a bad UNC team that can’t be saved by Sam Howell or Drake Maye.

      The way to beat this Bengals team is  physically: power running and ball control. You're not going to out-air them. There was a game last year where the ravens tried and burrow  readily out-dueled jackson. They have too many weapons. I believe Higgins returns this week. They're also down Trent Brown so Mims will see his first start. This game will tell us whether or not our O-line is legit.

      Everyone knows I dislike UNC (their basketball program; love their academics) but they are really doing a disservice as a football program. I’ve always thought them to be a potential sleeping giant and stand by the concept that they can be dominant in football or basketball. Not both simultaneously.   UNC will reach a crossroads when they enter the SEC where they may have to choose. There’s no reason why UNC can’t be competitive in the SEC in football but it may come as a cost to the relevancy of their basketball program. They’ll either be Kentucky 2.0 or reverse prioritize their programs ala Auburn.    It’s no secret the SEC wants to secure the Carolinas and their markets.
