This is my dream DT Even with Beane and McDermott telling him to slim down he could lost 60 pounds and still be 400

I should have said "basically impossible to do" but when I think of "clue chip generational player" on defense he just comes to mind. I grew up a Bills fan in the 80's and 90's and even I forgot just how absolutely dominant that guy was until I went back and watched some old games and looked at his stats. The guy was just built different. 10 sacks at age 37 with Washington, and 9 sacks at age 39. Even 5 sacks at age 40 is crazy. But here... Guy had 14-19 sacks most of his prime seasons. He might be more of a once in a lifetime player than once in a generation, though.

Put Bruce Smith in his prime on this team and we already would have 1-2 SB wins with no other changes. Obviously not easy to do.

I like this, because all that happened was the Bengals stayed the same but burned a ton of cap and cash. They are the same team they were last season when they missed the playoffs. Burrow will throw for 6000 yards and 51 TDs and they will finish 8-9 but "be the team nobody wants to see in the tournament (that they won't make)!"

I just get the sense listening to MacAfee and some of the things Rodgers has said that he definitely wanted to play for the Rams or Vikings, and would have signed with either team already. IMO, his #1 plan was the Rams once Stafford left, which seemed pretty likely. He goes to LA, plays there in a fairly weak division with a great offensive minded HC. Then the Vikings emerged as an idea and he wanted to explore that and try to drum up interest. Great team, play in the old division, get 2 shots at Green Bay. But it turns out they don't seem interested. So now, it's Steelers or Giants. Steelers are allergic to NFL offense, and always seem to start 11-1 or 9-3 and then lose a bunch of games in a row before getting bounced in the Wild Card round. But they have a good team and just got Metcalf for some reason. Giants are just awful and have 1 good offensive player and a coach and GM about to get fired halfway through the season if things start rough. Both Washington and Philly are great teams, so it's also a tough division. I could see him saying he came back in his 40's from a torn Achilles to be a top 10 QB in yards and TDs last season (which is somehow true), played all 17 games, was starting to heat up at the end of the year once he fully recovered from injury, won his 4 MVPs and a Super Bowl, and has nothing to prove. He'll also deny that he tried to join the Vikings or kept anyone waiting, saying the media created it all and loves making him the center of controversy. Just my prediction.

he will probably retire, IMO

Please no Thanksgiving game....

89/90 million is guaranteed.... It's that last million that the team couldn't quite do

Something I don't think you can underestimate is Bosa coming in here and already talking about playing with Allen and going for a SB win That, coupled with a 1 year deal will mean he will be as motivated as ever before. And he is incredibly talented, he's just had some bad injury luck. The way this DL rotates guys in and out hopefully he'll be fresh for the big moments.

I thought the same thing, then realized... they do not like huge DTs

LOL well said! I was honestly shocked to see them, and I doubt anyone actually bought them because they were there all summer and into fall.

They sell palm trees at WNY Lowes and Home Depot. A few different kinds too. It's not steady or consistent, but last year they had a bunch.

Big # 92 and big #93 lined up at DT was one of the most beautiful sights I've ever seen on a Bills defense. Too many teams lack the massive DT. Then if they get one they figure they have that spot filled. But that Bills team doubled down on greatness!

Love this signing! Versatile player, good value, and just all around likeable guy

good signing, and now we can hopefully draft a DT who has to turn sideways to fit through normal sized doorways
