I have only heard that on this thread. I was mostly responding to the person who said it here. Hopefully it's not true.

Star dropping a bunch of weight makes him useless to the defense, sadly. What he should have been doing this year is putting in the work in the dining room to be the biggest, best version of his 1DT self. Luckily, our future big DT (which is something Beane and McDermott obviously want in their defense) is named Slayton and he's in this draft coming up! There's a couple of giant DT's actually, that would make sense as mid-round picks to get a young giant guy in the system for cheap to play that role.

This is a great deal for all sides. The guys on WGR brought up a great point this morning: everyone said over the last year that there was probably no way the Bills could keep White, Dawkins and Milano. Not only did we keep all 3, but the cap is not too tight, especially considering the drop.

What if Star is thinking of retiring, but the team asks him to opt out this year instead, making his cap hit almost nothing this season and absorbing the acceleration next season once the cap goes up? If it's a deal between teams and players this time around, as opposed to a flat rate, then the Bills could say "take an extra 500,00 or 750,000 and wait a year to call it a career." Everyone wins. His cap hit drops to almost nothing, and he gets to pocket some extra cash that he would not see if he retires now.

Very reasonable money. Didn't see this coming!

MEGATRON! And he was great with him. The team stunk, though. But Stafford and Megatron put up some numbers together.

Worked out just fine without them in the Super Bowl, although I wonder how much Reid's son threw them off in that game as well. It seemed like there was none of the creativity we were used to, just snap the ball, Mahomes runs around like crazy, and the WR or TE drops the ball when it hits him in the face or hands.

He is hurt by it, I get it. Poor guy played for America's team, in the red white and blue and had the honor of donning that helmet for 2 years. It's tough to give that up!

So the Bills have around 15 million in space now, with another 2 or so coming when Lee Smith retires, for 17 million in cap space.

Yes he does, and you better believe that Seattle brings it up every chance it gets!

Fitz could start for NE

Oh, that's another thing... Seattle wanted to know why "Gruden" keeps texting but Russ said that's his nickname for his uncle Chuck. It's their inside joke. No biggie. And BTW, Seattle, who is this "Dak" who keeps calling and hanging up when I answer?!

protect Josh Allen and keep building the offense. A lot was made of how the Super Bowl "proved" that defense wins, but KC had their top 2 tackles out, and look what happened.

For quite a while now, Russ and the Seahawks have been sitting on opposite ends of the couch every night, TV on as background while each stares blankly into their phones in silence. The only time either perks up is when that text from "mom" or "dad" comes in and they realize they forgot to silence the phone. Now, we're hearing that Russell and the Seahawks have decided to take different rooms because each "sleeps better alone." This isn't good.

Russ was 3 yards from going back to back SB wins so early in his career and he blew it, plain and simple.

Him and Ralph Kruger both!

I wonder if a 3 way trade happens: Wilson to Chicago for 3 1sts Dak to Seattle for 2 1sts Dallas gets 2 firsts for Dak Seattle gets Dak and a first for Wilson Chicago gets Wilson Then, Dallas turns to their friends across the state and send 4 1sts (2 of theirs, plus the 2 they got for Dak) to Houston for Watson. Houston ends up with 4 1st round picks from a variety of teams for Watson.

Imagine if Aaron Rogers had the intensity and drive that Brady does. He might actually win an NFC Title Game once in a while... What Brady has done to play this long is very simple: an insane, almost maniacal dedication to diet, fitness, and study, plus a little bit of luck in terms of injuries. It's not complicated, but few (if any) can keep it up because you have to sacrifice so much for it. If a guy's body holds up and he's really good then he could play well into his 40's. It's the "body holding up" part that is the kicker. Peyton Manning would still be playing if his body didn't fall apart on him. He had the same intensity as Brady but his neck/nerve issues took him out of the game. No amount of yoga or avocado is going to help degenerative neck issues. QBs that are top notch actually get better and better as they get older. Brady has won the majority of his Super Bowls AFTER age 37. Just think about that. If he retired when guys used to he would have 3 rings.

One thing Beane and McDermott have done is spend $$ on the DL. I can absolutely see them going after a free agent DE for top $$. We need a pass rush, and they obviously just watched Mahomes fail to score a single TD in the Super Bowl.

insane... Allen is going to be expensive to lock up long term. What a time to be playing QB! What would a guy like Peyton Manning, who always maximized his deals, be making now? The older guys must be a little jealous.

that's one ticky tack PI flag from Brady getting a 1st and 10. the other team would never see the ball the entire game!

Few realize just what a workout and study freak Allen really is, and how disciplined he is. He has said he studies Brady and wants to follow his system. Josh is going to win a Super Bowl here if he keeps this career arc going, which there is no reason to think he won't. As far as Mahomes and Allen and comparisons go... The AFC is going to be a lot of fun for quite a while. Guys like Allen and Mahomes have the potential to be around and playing at a high level in their late 30's or even early 40's. That's a lot of years of games and potential playoff meetings.

Makes sense. There is no real reason not to just wait a few extra weeks. Plus, the NFL would dominate the post Super Bowl week/weeks with all the coaching news in what would be one of the down times.

Stafford is really going to surprise some people, I think. For the first time he has a real coach who is actually good at what he does, and a pretty good roster of talent on offense and defense.

I would bet that if they lost the ticket, most of those 2 million would walk, meaning they lose 1/8 of their customers almost immediately. Plus they wouldn't get joy out of denying people the chance to give them hundreds of dollars for the ticket. I really think it makes their day when they turn a potential customer and $400 away. That's how dumb the company is. The biggest difference between up and coming companies and fading old dinosaurs like Direct TV is that Amazon never saw a dollar it didn't want. Direct TV LOVES telling you that they don't want your money.
