Anonymously. Versus the teammates who unanonymously defended him.

We are so !@#$ed now. RIP.

God help me, I lol'd.

It will be interesting to see if Philly's horses can play at the levels ours did back in 2014. My guess it that it will be a mixed bag of a year for them, leading to hundreds of pages of concurrent I told you so's and Rex sucks comments being flung left and right on here. Can't wait.

In 2015, McCoy's cap hit was $11.5M In 2015, the combined cap hit of Demarco and Mathews was $7M. Per Sportrac. As a short term move, the Eagles saved cap space by getting rid of McCoy and replacing him. That was Chip's justification. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/12/10/chip-on-trading-mccoy-we-had-to-free-up-money-for-bradford/ "We have three running backs this year who their salary cap hit this year is $11.1 million. We had one guy making $11.9 million.”

There's the second allegation.

Leroi, you card.

I fear for Kyle as well (if he's here). Goodwin. Harvin (if he's here.)

If he was throwing punches while his friends were stomping on their heads...

I expect McCoy to suffer an injury next year and be rendered less effective. Maybe not in preseason.

Rose also had to have surgery, wait two weeks, and wear a mask.

You know what they say about brevity? I'm not gonna post "allegedly in the same group where" every single time.

I'd rather he was in with drugs rather than stomping on a guys head. It's on the same level as DWI and guns.

Huh? You do realize he didn't get a lot carries in some games, because he was hurt.

But his body breaking down does.

CTL-ALT-DEL

Seriously? Excuses piled up? Are you insinuating Wannstedt's defense was just an excuse? Williams was speculated to be the second most sought after FA back in 2012. The Bills were reported to have made plans to get him for an entire year. They put on the full court press and offered him the biggest payday. I can give you one reason why the rest of the NFL may not have seemed interested. Peyton Manning was on the market. How many teams were going after Peyton first and how many who weren't were able to pay Mario what we did? Probably a small number of teams in that grouping. It will only be addition by subtraction because we've stacked the equation.

Perhaps the weakest link I've ever seen. How is Trump using Muslims and immigrants as scapegoats?

But he didn't average that many in 2015.

I'd appreciate your points a little more if I knew you held them prior to 2015. Seems to be a little revisionist. IMO, the Bills landed him because they paid the most, period. If you want to contend Mario is a mercenary over a locker room leader, I wouldn't disagree. Horrible teammate? That's going a little far. Mario also wasn't in a contract year, but it technically may have been as his cap hit was rising and a restructure/extension was necessary or he was going to be released. He's a net positive to me. This team is better with Mario on it. Is his loss the worst thing ever? No. If I had to pick who we lost this offseason between him and Kyle Williams, it's him, no question. But there are hundreds of Mario's in the NFL. They are on winning teams and losing teams and everyone in between. The "Mario question" is more of a media driven narrative than anything else. No one bats an eye when a WR (like our very own Sammy Watkins) quits on his routes. When he publicly complains about his targets and numbers, the excuse is that "he's right, getting Sammy more involved probably leads to more wins." Why can't the same be said about Mario? Why can't scheming to get Mario 15 sacks a year not also be said lead to more wins? The argument that the player is in the "right," would hold for Rex's scheme too, no? You yourself even admit that Rex messed up this season and the defense was bad. Mario quitting is unacceptable. But there's a fine-line between Mario's antics and virtually the rest of the league, and he's hardly the only one to dance it.

I refuse to see anything from any other angle than reality.

I know. GG always points to the Nelson drop when we talk about the "myth" of the 2014 defense. I was poking fun at him.

Can we talk about your idiotic Nazi comparison instead? Much more fun.

RIght, but the NFL charges what they do because they sell. This guy is charging something that won't sell. Demand dictates price of a good sold. The tape isn't sold, the demand is not there.
