Don't we typically do some "courtesy cuts" by this time? By that, I mean releasing players that they know won't be making the roster giving them a chance to hook up w/ another team in time for the last PS game? I know we've released/waived a few players but w/ the exception of K Davis (whose signing was injury induced), all or at least most were injury related. Often times, someone like E Moore or D Jackson would be let go once we think it's unlikely we'll have them on the roster- again, largely a courtesy to them.

It used to be that you indeed, did need to throw a "real" pass, usually a quick out way over the rcvrs head & well OB. At some point, they allowed offenses to merely "clock" the ball when it's apparent that's what the intent is. You bring up a valid point that it is arguably "unsportsmanlike" & NOT in the spirit of the game.

In this case, the ball went backwards, so it's a lateral, not a pass. So any tuck rule is not applicable. You do have a valid point that when they abort a forward throw & it goes straight in the ground near them there likely isn't a receiver in the area & if the throw was not altered by contact w/ a defender, I think it should be grounding but I don't recall it ever being called (though throwing into the ground doesn't occur frequently). (ie refs aren't supposed to interpret intent, ie like when a receiver runs a wrong route)

Actually, in 2019 I was looking for land just outside Albany NY (Greene County). Very little (like 15% of population IIRC) of that County had high speed internet available! Cellular internet wasn't much of an option either, so yeah, dial up! Of course, although I know a fair # of people w/ AOL email addresses, I wasn't even aware AOL had an actual "service", so low %age of need for dial up coupled w/ low number of users I can see how it's not viable/prudent to maintain a dial up option.

Isn't he the guy that charges into a WoW room unprepared & gets his whole team slaughtered?

Depending on how handy you are, you can modify Greenworks batteries to work in Kobalt tools (& vice versa). Alternately, you can swap out the innards.

This is what 1st came to mind: This one, too:

The only advantage I can see is if they host, the visitors will be traveling on a short week. Yes, that's an advantage, but I think it also would displease their players, particularly those w/ kids.

I'm wondering about the cap ramifications. If Hoecht has a $3m base salary for '25, presumably we get $1m+ cap relief (6/17 of that for which he's out). Ogunjobi seems to be $8.3m (w/ $8m guaranteed) w/ no bonus for just '25, so that presumably saves us almost $3m in cap savings. Yes?

We didn't necessarily just "flush it down the toilet". Granted, the benefit we got from him this year was negligible & he may quite possibly sign elsewhere. But, if he does... depending on what we do elsewhere WRT Free Agent signings & losses, we may very well be entitled to compensation if he signs elsewhere. Doubtful it'll be a 3rd round, but if it's a 4th you got a contributor for a fraction of a season which served as a "tryout" for next season (I don't think you should discount this benefit) tghat seems like a worthwhile trade, even if the compensatory pick is delayed a year.

1st person came to mind was "Friggin Lonnie" (Johnson). Next who immediately came to mind & others have mentioned is BJ Hobart. Peterman played one game where I think he was literally the worst statistical QB ever.

Interesting that it said "fired", rather than "parting ways", or something similar. Granted, it's a reporter rather than an official source. Curious what is said when the Bills announce it.
