because i no ppl will be too dumb to get what i mean, i'll clarify by saying we will get a bye week for the first round and we wont be playing for that round.

Funny on so many levels...let me help clarify your clarification.

"Because I Know people will be too dumb to get what I mean, I'll clarify by saying we will get a bye week for the first round and won't be playing for that round".

FYI: A first round bye does count as playing, it's just a win.

/sigh. Stay in school.

some1 dumb enough to nitpick, u guys see what i deal with,

if i wanted to waste more of my life clarifying what i wanted to clarify i would have done it but i figured that people would have got the idea when i said "hey let me clarify" that i didnt feel like dealing with bullshit off topic like you're doing now.

eh, I'm ok with resting the guys that need it, but i think the rest of the starters at least need to play a half all the way through the final week.

Eh I'd rather play the whole thing with everybody, and I guess if some players need rest but we've seen too many times teams who clinch early and rest their players the last week of the season, so by the time the divisional playoffs come around, they are 3 weeks removed from playing time.

Chicago rested their players in 05 to close out the regular season when they had the 2nd seed, one and done.

Indy rested their players in 05 from the 15th game, one and done.

those are off the top of my head, theres definitely more that I don't care to think of right now.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
