Lighten up, Francis.
Just on a roster or someone who actually plays 80% of his team's snaps?

Thanks this is why I brought the issue up in the first place. The situation feels strange to me and I'm just some fan. I would imagine it wouldn't sit well with NFL excecutives.
C'mon man the details of his lateness came out a few hours after my post. I wish I was psychic.
fair enough, I retract my sarcasm...is that a thing?

Good points, but why not just skip the whole thing then? Say he's going to focus on the combine like everyone else always does. If everybody knows he's 5'11" then he should just get measured.
I get what the agent is trying to do, but it just seems wishy-washy to me. Plus he showed up late...to me that's like the guys who get a positive drug test at the combine. It's just dumb.
Definite character issue. To think someone would be with their mother in the hospital rather than at a meaningless football game. Oh the humanity.

Sure why not. I see ppl claiming they won't tune in because NE made another SB. Sorry to say, they deserved that game. I hate them as much as the next man. But their defense and offense outplayed the young Jags when it mattered.
Jax was 6/10 on 3rd down going into the 4th qtr . 0 for in the 4th, giving up 14 points, I saw ONE questionable call by refs that I actually agreed with, so I think this should be re assessed in a week or so when people cool down and are not in their emotions so much. NE deserved the W if I'm being real.
Totally agree. The nfl is less enticing to me with each passing year. I'm not certain but I am leaning toward not.

Ok with Payne at 21 but if Ridley is available at 22, highly doubt it, they have to take him.

Goof ol Nate. First and 10 up the gut

Gutless call to punt on 4th and 1 cost them the game.

You asked a question I answered it. We didn’t spy. We lost. There’s no way to go back and see what would’ve happened if we did, but I know what happened when we didn’t. We gave up 10 points because he ran for 1st down after 1st down. That was their entire offense.
I asked a practical question. You asked a general question. Don't take this as me being a jerk, I don't intend to be. I just can't believe an nfl coach wouldn't consider a spy. Chances are good they thought through it and must have had a reason to not spy him.

Humber is fast enough. No question
Maybe, who covers Lewis then? Putting Hyde on Lewis? Who is over top of Lee to keep them from getting toasted? I don't think they have the talent to make it work. Spying became a big thing with Mike vick. The best at it was Brooks in Tampa. Stacked d and the man could really run.

Exactly!! All these people saying that not spying the QB wasn't relevant are missing the point hugely. If they had adjusted and spied Bortles, he doesn't get those first downs and they don't get ANY points. So yeah giving up 10pts is great, but giving up ZERO pts is considerably better when your team cannot get anything done on offense. Also Spying Bortles would have forced him into his usual bad decisions and he might have actually thrown some INTS, which for us was one of the keys to victory today and all year.
Who would spy him? No linebacker on the field today is fast enough.

Oh !@#$ off with this sophistry. Blue States send more money to the federal government than they receive back, now that gap is going to be even wider. The Blue States were already subsidizing the Red States most of whom got back more money from the feds than they pay in. Now that gap is going to be bigger and for what? To build infrastructure that is desperately needed? To lower the national deficits which would stabilize the future? Maybe it is to help out people dealing with medical bankruptcy or crippling student debt, we bailed out the banks, why not bail out the consumer?
No, we are taking on all this debt to give a tax cut that mostly benefits corporations and the rich who are doing by far better than they have been in nearly all of modern history. Corporate Reserves and cash on hand are at record highs, they aren't investing money they are mostly taking their record profits and giving it back to investors a large chunk of whom are foreigners. This is a massive extraction of wealth outside of he country. The fact that the corporate and top earner rates are the permanent rates and the middle-class tax cuts expire shows you were the real priorities of the party that cut this plan are.
You can't write your local taxes beyond 10k, it's a federal tax code. The only thing a state can do is allow you to write off your property tax against your state tax, but that's not going to make up the difference at all.
I know it's a deduction, you don't get it subtracted from your federal taxes. I mainly said that it alleviated the costs as if you were a high earner in NY state you could at least deduct a large amount of taxes you paid to the state against your federal bill. It obviously wouldn't give you the full amount back but getting a portion back is better than the nothing they will get now.
Hence the pa part. My local taxes including income are 3500. 1% income and 1580 on a 2400 Sq ft house on 9 acres.

I think you grossly overestimate state taxes. I think California has the highest state tax and it's in the range of 10% at the highest income bracket. No state takes 20% of your money via income tax. No matter what you still have to pay federal taxes. And up until Trump !@#$ed over everybody you use to be able to write off your state and local taxes fully against your federal taxes, which for high gross income earners deeply helped alleviate that cost.
Also I think that as another poster mentioned that you get taxed by which state you play your games in. I would also add in the fact that a lot of teams in higher taxed states have no issues recruiting players.
I can still write mine off. Pa resident. You don't have to stay where you are do you? Come to PA

While I'm certainly no fan of Taylor, I do think Benjamin is a top tier WR.
Benjamin was traded to the Bills, not a free agent signing.

They havent been caught cheating again ...
You do realize that they've already been caught three times right it's not a conspiracy it's not speculation that actually happened and Goodell conspire to destroy the evidence so did Brady what you're talking about has already happened and now with everything we know that has happened in the past we have some random guy from New York overturning calls in favor of the Patriots that's not a red flag to you
Arguing with a jackass is never a good idea man.

Anybody else see the commercial for the NFL playoffs last night? The one that was done like a theatrical trailer and listed "the Seattle Seahawks" as one of the stars? Seahawks haven't made the playoffs yet. Not only do they need to win next week, they need Carolina to also win. Anybody wanna bet they will?
Nope but I would bet my house on it.

There seems to be an awful lot of hedging in this thread. Yeah it's fixed. Yeah it's too hard to script like a wrestling match with 22 people on the field. Still definitely fixed.

He often had very talented teams and was known for losing important games.
Despite clear talent and big numbers whether he was a good enough QB to lead the Cowboys to a title was oft-questioned to say the least.
His Cowboys routinely underachieved......but once he did get homefield advantage with Wade as his HC.........and IMMEDIATELY lost.
Also had great talent around him last year when he took that outrageously stupid preseason hit that knocked him into retirement.
You want an assertion.......how about that Tony Romo has probably been THE MOST SCRUTINIZED decision-making QB in NFL history.
His career was LITTERED with instances of bone-head decisions where he trusted his arm or body far too much.
Tyrod and Romo are on two opposite sides of the decision making spectrum.
Neither will probably ever win a SB...........but we already know one of them will never even reach a championship game LET ALONE a SB.
Amirite or amirite?
Romo and Rex are both excellent analysts though...........just more entertaining than right.
As the old timers say who the he'll do you think you are? I wish we had a jackass emoji

Someone should have kicked that scumbag right in the throat. Same with that douchecock reciever. That's the classy patriots right there.

Big Ben. Watched him a ton at Miami of Ohio and loved him. Was convinced that Limas Sweed was going to be an absolute stud.
