Steve talks football, his intentions are pure, he's just the easiest bait for LC. And you making posts about the whole thing doesn't sound that much different relative to what you are rallying against...unfortunately. Just saying. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy, wasn't he supposed to visit the Jets tomorrow to discuss a contract and Rodgers coming in? He probably looked at the loaded WR room in NY and thought I'm not getting the reps I want there.

stevegrab Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 Texans HC Demeco Ryans sounds like a realist, or just trying not to pile too much pressure on whoever they take with the 2nd overall pick. Basically saying "we are not expecting whoever we draft to be the team's savior, that is too much pressure." https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/texans-coach-gets-brutally-honest-about-no-2-overall-pick/ar-AA19Jb7o 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaft Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 The exact same thing happened to me back in graduate school. I thought I had food poisoning! That food was leaving out of the nearest exit, pun intended! Those dam chicken fingers.

I can't believe how poorly my system responded. I've had Taco Bell at some point but didn't do the same damage. I got some fried chicken from The Halal Guys near me and it was amazing!

T-Scorp Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 4 hours ago, Big John said: Jalen Hurts agrees to 5-year $255M extension. Good for him but ultimately the pay that QB's are now commanding is IMO going to be bad for football. Beside Mahomes there are very few QB's that can win without a great team around them. I am not a capologist, but even with the increasing salary cap, $225MM in 2023, teams that have to give 20% or more of their cap to one position are going to have a hard time winning unless they are very successful on hitting on draft picks. The window for winning with one of these superstar QB's seems to narrowing. Allen, Burrow, Herbert, Hurts, Jackson and even Lawrence are on borrowed time as their teammates are going to have to be paid too or find a new team . Do the 49ers have the right formula with a great defense and an adequate system QB? (though even they sold the farm for a shiny new QB that got broken right away). It will be very interesting to see how long this literal arms race lasts before the QB bubble bursts... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brady (and the NFL rulebook) has really screwed up the NFL & Mahommes is following in those footsteps. Right now, the model to a championship is building around a superstar franchise QB and since the 2000's there have been very few exceptions. The last 10 years you've had just Goff, Foles & Wilson making the exceptions, though I would argue Wilson and Goff were peaking prime when they won. Until teams show they can consistently win with defense & the running game (a joke in today's NFL) teams are going to put all emphasis & money on the franchise QB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when everyone went nuts over ARod's baseball contract that was along the lines of 80-90 million. Now we have these guys making a quarter of a billion dollars. Much more when you add all their commercials and endorsements. I think the NFL has become the poster child for greed.
