Farewell Wall of Pound, and we thank you.

Colts tanking for Arch Manning.

Twice I've had to direct other people to call something in while I was handling weird and wild chaos, but I've never actually punched the numbers myself.

Yes, with hindsight we know that. It wasn't a sure thing either way at the time. Price was a starting WR as well. Just not one who lived up to his contract. Cook is a starting RB on probably 24 teams around the league. That doesn't mean he'll be a success everywhere. For instance, one possible outcome would be that he signs with a team that plays him on 75% of snaps and his body can't hold up and he breaks down. You can't tell what'll happen. IMO the Bills are handling him right by limiting his snaps. Could be he could stand up to 75%. But there's no way to know. Could be he has one and a half more years of good production and then regresses. Just no way to know for sure.

Hey, it's 2025. I make no assumptions.

Justin Shorter looking to have made improvements on the transition to TE.

Oh. I guess Liev isn't short for Olivia... 😁

It doesn't happen often, but I'm thinking you're wrong on this one. Liev Schrieber:

Hardly tragic, indeed. Once again, I'll be that guy... Career earnings (before 2025): $2.93 million https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/player/earnings/_/id/77108/baylon-spector

Whoaaa, whoaaa, whoaaaa..... There's no reason to disparage innocent marine life here.

I couldn't care less whether he's a baby boy or a baby girl. He's an infant either way.

Age (30) doesn't concern you, given the top-of-the-WR-market extension McLaurin is seeking with I'm guessing at least 3-4 years additional term? Imagine instead if a short-term extension was somehow on the table...bring him in for two big prolific SB run seasons with Josh Allen slinging it at the absolute peak of his powers... "It's so obvious why....people (fans of other teams) complain about [it]"? - or - "It's so obvious why the NFL want[s] to make Josh the face of the league"? Have you tried a Ring system, or maybe ADT?

Price was a one-trick pony. Without Moulds on the team he wouldn't of put up those numbers either. And regardless of it being hindsight, it's why he failed on his next contract. Cook is a starting RB on any team in the NFL (given teams like philly didn't have Barkley, ravens and Henry, etc...

Good question. maybe the compiler is not a Bills fan or is. Who knows. I posted the link to this video not to illustrate how the Bills. OL keeps Josh upright but as a primer on the various kinds of pass pro.

The chiefs arrive in their alternate uniforms made me laugh ...so true. The NFL finally made adjustments to the chain gang crew since time began.

Nah, that's hindsight. Sure, after it went down it was clear that Peerless wasn't a WR1. Not so before, though. Could've gone either way. My guess is also that Cook will do well elsewhere, but not as well as he is doing here with this OL and situation. Cook is running into light boxes at an extremely high rate as teams struggle to deal with Josh Allen. He won't have that advantage elsewhere.

No he won't. Price was a clear WR2 that got signed to WR1 money and position. He clearly didn't fit that role. Cook is dynamic and will flourish as long as he has a decent team with decent line, just like just about every RB besides Barry Sanders

Day 1

I believe Beane is clearly not willing to meet Cook's desired AAV, and therefore it's on Cook to either hold-in/out and/or request a trade, and whether to finally report and play Wk 1 when none of that other stuff works. Maybe adding new performance accelerators or bonus money just for 2025 could be a middle ground? Is there any precedent for that approach? Allen's mechanics are more and more like Aaron Rodgers', as loath as I am to even type it.

I will drink American "Barolo?" I will eat faux "Swiss" milk chocolate? I will drive a Buick and say it's the American Audi?
