  1. I’m not sure workplace conduct punishment for union employees doing dumb stuff off the clock vs jeopardizing on the clock outcomes is how I judge that
  2. to be fair: which jeopardizes the on the field product more? Rice also faces criminal and civil penalties for his involvement in something worse for society at large
  3. they might not like you much
  4. I just looked out of curiosity… and yes, Jerry jones attorney and also a Texas state senator of 30+ years. A recent lengthy extension to move the trial outside the legislative session of January through June.
  5. doesnt he have Jerry jones attorney or some such? Its been so long that im getting blurry on details
  6. I’ll say as a public statement 18 months out, that actually gives me a bit of pause on whether it’ll be ready.
  7. yea- he wasn’t locked on revis island but to say he made revis look like trash is definitely mythology surpassing reality
  8. meh- I’ve gone back and forth and sometimes your best shot doesn’t come on 4th down so you have to take the coin flip for a 30 yard gain on second down if the opportunity arises because you are unlikely to get a better chunk play later and winning one coin flip is easier than winning 3 coin flips. there were plenty of days I hated in the moment but ultimately like more than seeing a 7 play turnover on downs or failed Hail Mary I think a good example of defining terms being important. below average starter and below average nfl player at his position are very different I think universally the board would call him a below average starter (ie around 20th) not below average on a roster (say 40th)
  9. honestly I would be curious if the numbers support my theory that he was fitz tragic because he could play within his limitations most of the day to keep it close but didn’t have the arm talent when it was crunch time and everyone was giving 110% and you couldn’t live for another down because you are down 5 with 38 seconds left…. Seemed he was smart enough to know he had to throw it still and see what happened at that point. Even if his arm made it less likely to connect than Josh - still better than running out of bounds short of the sticks,
  10. it’s ultimately a case of “this guy has flags for being self centered and clueless” this isn’t proof he will fail but it’s surely another data point in the wrong column if you are invested in his success. to do it twice this month is likewise a data point in the does not learn from mistakes column
  11. Call me crazy but I still think that Coleman was drafted to let Shakir walk and now our pass catching resource allocations are all kinds of messed up with a million slot guys, the leagues richest backup tight end and prayers Elijah Moore can get behind a corner occasionally if you gave beane truth serum I think the hope was Keon, Samuel and a higher end WR addition - see something like Devante, DK but Keon hasn’t shown to be a real starter, and Samuel struggled and now that high end salary has to split between Palmer and Shakir to fill multiple roles.
  12. seems like an odd range of picks/years without context
  13. ironically, I think you have it backwards. Coleman is younger but has a more measurable physical ceiling which is going to make what we need from him very hard to accomplish. Dalton on the other hand is at a position that often takes longer to master AND for which he has high end physical traits. it’s going to be tough to push chips in on either til we see it but dalton seems incredibly more likely to become that guy
  14. the bengals would have it on billboards and be on every news outlet around if he was refusing to sign the “stock contract” we don’t know the exact verbiage but it’s clearly materially different
  15. meh. Both are frustrating. I’m not loving a debate between whether it was better to watch Phillip Rivers or Donovan Mcnabb? Just spitballing two good QBs without rings from 20 years ago I think I’d be ok tanking a few seasons in exchange for an appearance. 12-5 and Super Bowl run followed by 5-12 or two 11-6 seasons losing in the divisional? I think probably give me the first
  16. Something 5 figures? Like low/mid 5? More than a modest used car but less than 50 for sure
  17. I think the nfl would be hard pressed to cost him millions under the reasoning “must have been illegal if he doesn’t want to talk to reporters about it” even if we all have the very reasonable assumption of what it is
  18. and by aggravation he may mean participating fully in camp
  19. the thing is we would be fine without cook because we have Josh…. But whether that means we are optimized for a Super Bowl run… maybe? im honestly surprised. Thought it would be a day one of training camp arrival
  20. also none of the 4 are iron men
  21. or the same afternoon. The economics of Home Depot doing free same day delivery for like $5-10 items really gets me.
  22. Some guys refuse on principle or end up humbled on the market but he likely gets decent coin
  23. yea I ride the fence on this… obviously a fan and often advocate for preserving the game… but also the reality is it’s quite rough on the body and we normalize some extreme things to protect the game. especially in recent years I’ve fallen under them being incredibly well paid even at minimums and grown men can make grown decisions…. But some of these are certainly grown up choices they have to make in risking health for money.
  24. neither would make this 53 but ignoring player limits - von
  25. well if it was you… It seems a lil more than just a sore knee- I literally couldn’t walk. After a game on Sunday, I wouldn’t be able to walk on my own, under my own power, until Wednesday, Thursday. So I was only able to play under the pain meds. I couldn’t put any pressure on my knee, so it was like, I can’t keep doing that to myself.”
