  1. Trent Edwards as a potential franchise guy Rosen over Allen (which turned out to be the GOAT fail-take for a lot of us) Excited about Rex hire Otherwise, I've never been wrong. 🤣
  2. Would you mind linking to the source? Would like to see the videos he's referencing at various points.
  3. Josh now traveling back in time to torture the '90s Dolphins too! That's a baaaad man there.
  4. What the initial reaction is of rival fans isn't really the question you should be asking yourself. Look no further than our reactions when the Chiefs signed Le'Veon Bell or Josh Gordon. The signing of shiny, previously productive, big name toys always get a big reaction from your average fan. I'm not completely against the idea of swinging a deal for McCaffrey, but let's acknowledge that it is a high risk move and there is a fairly decent chance he ends up no more productive than Singletary/Moss given his injury history.
  5. McCaffrey has barely cleared 1000 scrimmage yards in the past two years combined. Running backs don't tend to get more productive (or healthier) after their age 25 season. Panthers could easily see it as getting some value back for damaged goods.
  6. Yep, a reminder that Aaron Rodgers didn't make his first Pro Bowl until his age 26 season, nor win his first MVP until his age 28 season. Our boy Josh is just getting started.
  7. Yep, muppy. The man was pissdrunk for sure. Probably forgot about what he'd seen within a second or two. Still, a very creepy natural response to watching someone fall like that. Yikes.
  8. Back in the day, my favorite was when certain posters would remove all of Travis Henry's good runs to make an argument that he (or our o-line) actually sucked. He'd run for 150 yards and then there be posts like..."But if you remove his 8 best carries, he only averaged 2.9 YPC!!!". Edit: to be fair, the o-line was actually putrid under ol Greggo.
  9. Good list. My only nitpick would be the placement of Cousins. He's quietly played good football only to be let down by Zimmer's defense. He's not great, but he is above Ryan and Mayfield in my book.
  10. Assuming he ever plays again, and at his previous level, I'd put Watson at 1C or 2A. Allen has passed him, imo. Also, I'm seeing quite a few people leaving Rodgers off. Did he announce his retirement?
  11. Come on. Burrow and Herbert are on another level from Derek Carr. They are clearly on tier 2, just behind Allen. Dak I agree with. He's got a cupboard full of toys to play with. He should be dominant. He's a tier 3 dude with Carr, Tannehill, Kyler Murray etc. Here's how I see them: Tier 1A: Mahomes and Rodgers Tier 1B: Josh Allen Tier 2A: Herbert and Burrow Tier 2B: Stafford and Jackson Russell Wilson??? Tier 3: Tanny, Murray, Dak, Carr, Cousins Tier 4: Matt Ryan, Mac Jones Tier 5: Lawrence, Hurts Tier 6: journeyman scrubs like Heinicke, Wentz, and raw 1st rounders like Fields and Lance
  12. Yes, but not because of the product, player safety or any of third rail political or social issues that are often brought up. I'm just older and busier with kids/family/work and other hobbies, so I limit my sports intake to Bills games and sports involving my alma mater.
  13. Sorry, I was/am drunk and was just trying to come up with a cocky bastard who never brought home a ring. Feel free to insert whomever you'd prefer to complete the analogy.
  14. I don't mind cocky guys that play the pimp, but you better deliver in the biggest moment. Fine line between Muhammed Ali and the Terrell Owens of the world.
  15. I really didn't care who won, but now that's it's over, I'm glad we won't get 6 months of unbearable Burrow ball washing.
  16. Garbage dude. Doesn't surprise me. So, when are the Chiefs signing him?
  17. Yes. And for most young adults that's the only thing they know that music from. Kind of how Gary Glitter was for us forty something's who grew up in the 80s/90s.
  18. I'm saying they don't move the needle with the under 40 crowd. Hip-hop and pop are kings these days...like it or not.
  19. I love rock music, but it is absolutely dead at this point, unfortunately.
  20. Yeah, I mentioned the generic pop stars too. (Weeknd ain't giving us another House of Balloons anytime soon).
  21. Blows my mind that this Bengals team is going to win a SB. 13 f'ing seconds. Ugh
  22. This is the music I grew up with, but it's just sort of boring now. Just like watching all the other old fart rockers and pop stars they trot out every year. Just typical bland halftime show
  23. Exactly. He might have CTE, but he almost certainly had cocaine psychosis. Read a little bit about David Bowie's Station to Station sessions while he was living in Los Angeles in the 1970s - months long frightening psychotic break due to HEAVY cocaine usage. You don't have to be mentally ill or brain damaged to go off the deep end like that. I've seen friends become severely paranoid from partying that got out of control. There's a reason for that Rick James quote. Why are you threatening this dude (unless it's an inside joke or something)?
  24. Step forward disguised as a step back - much like 1989. I think we are now better equipped to handle being the "hunted", and next year we emerge as a rock solid dominant SB contender behind cheatcode-level play from JA.
  25. Obviously a horrible play, but it was 3rd and 7, so that one yard quick out wasn't going to get it done. They're already down by 14, on the road, midway through the 2nd quarter, backed up against their own endzone and about to punt the ball back to the Rams in good field position. I'm sure he felt it was desperation time. Take the safety and he's thinking we are staring down the barrel at 23-0. I've seen Mahomes and Allen make plays like that. And Murray is still a year behind Allen and two years behind Mahomes as far as experience goes (and even moreso when it comes to the playoffs).
