You’ll have to remind all of us why he’s blacked-balled. Is it the kneeling, the pig socks, being pro Castro, tweeting about the Ravens when they were thinking of signing him, that he hasn’t played in 3 years, or that he wasn’t a starter when he was playing?

Can we send our Oline to train with Incognito at the funny farm?

I’m curious as to why Kelvin Benjamin was, for the most part, vilified by the national media for giving honest answers regarding Cam Newton, and yet the talking heads praise Jalen Ramsey’s trash talk. Stephen A Smith called his rant “compelling.” https://youtu.be/WeW5ngFzt8w

One of the most popular beers in the world, not to mention the number one selling beer in the US, that “no one” drinks. I mean, I don’t either. I pay $13 for a 6 pack of hop slurry so bitter it makes every orifice pucker.

Damn it, Norwood

It’s happened before

Based solely on allegations alone, LeSean was just fired as the host of The Talking Dead, the Nerdist, and was relieved of all of his Comicon duties.

Sure he might block well, but can he hurl dumbbells at gym patrons and make contract demands via Twitter?

I’m simply enjoying the scrum for Who Didn’t Believe in Peterman the Most Award. Much like the I Knew We Were Going to Suck Before Anyone Awards of the drought years which usually surface around week 4 - 6

Why wouldn’t anyone predict a terrible year? We have a new starting QB, a new OC, a patchwork OL, and the bad news bears of receiving corps. Personally I like the direction of the team and the motivation of the coach. So I’m hopeful, but I don’t think it’s even a minor stretch for the media to not believe in the process like we do.

If stays retired, I wish his liver, kidneys, and most importantly his brain the best of luck.

Considering my first away game at Baltimore. The plan is contingent on going with a friend who is a Raven’s fan. Having been to few Orioles games with less than friendly fans, I just assume I’ll need backup for a Ravens game.

Couldn’t agree more. I felt the same about Fitzpatrick but for some reason, the board’s love for Fitz at the time (and probably still is) felt infinitely greater than for Tyrod.

I disagree because their issue is not directly work related. Their using their job as a platform for their issue. They have the entire offseason and all of their personal time to speak however and to whomever they please. It’s like trying to save the whales only after clocking in at Burger King. It’s noble and well intentioned, but neither directly correlated to the job performed nor the company that employs you.

If there’s a meme for this board, it’s this

I’m excited to see who comes out on top. All 3 say the right things and seem have what it takes to lead. AJ seems to have a chip on his shoulder and I think he’s the most motivated of the group. He seems to be very aware that this year is his best shot to start. Allen seems unphased by any situation. He handled the expectations and draft day craziness very well. I hope he can handle the blitz as calmly. Whatever you think of Peterman, you have to admit that he is determined.

That seems to be the point of contention. They seem to think that we already had a QB that could get us to the playoffs, a “veteran” backup, and a developmental rookie. It’s as if they found the need to get a QB superfluous.

Week 3 vs Denver checked many boxes for me. My first game in years, the wife’s first NFL game, a ridiculous amount of Broncos fans, the media not giving us a shot, the temperature was near 100 on the visitors side in the sun, Trumps comments about kneeling before the game, and actually coming away with a win was awesome. It seemed to prove that the team was for real. Also the first game Hauschka really impressed. If I could take back anything, it would be to sit on the home side of the stadium, and I probably should have stopped yelling Old Spice related jeers at Von Miller after we had the lead.

Letting him go for nothing was such an unusual move that I was hoping we were dodging some kind of bullet. Unfortunely the previous regimes made terrible personnel moves on the regular and i kind of got used to it. Nice to see us being ahead of the curve for a change

I plug my ears during every mumble rap song to raise awareness of crappy music.

Emotions aside, what how does this move benefit the franchise? Was retaining his bonus money the only benefit?

This. This is the most infuriating part of this whole situation. I would have let him have his bonus if only to keep him away from the Cheatriots for another year. It’s petty, I know. But like Boldin, he’s basically declared his intention to sign with them. And the way he did it was public and insulting.
