  1. I’m not totally opposed to him. I’d rather invest the savings in Spain but they have plenty of money. At the same time you are going to be paying Felciano less than Long. You can find quality depth if you trust your scouts. I’m indifferent on Long. He’s been okay and he’s versatile. Is he better than Bates? I don’t know. He could be the depth guy. I am fine with it either way.
  2. I’d certainly have Long above the other 2. I’m a touch indifferent on him coming back. Kroft and Murphy feel like pretty easy decisions.
  3. I don’t see any reason to keep Trent. You can save $7.2M by releasing him. That feels like a no-brainer. He’s a bad player. You can get equal or better production for half the price. Regardless of the cap space they already have there is zero reason for Trent Murphy to be on this team in 2020. The same goes for Kroft and Spencer Long imo (there is another $9Mish in those 2).
  4. Texas A&M is like Auburn this year. They are fine when they play bad teams. They haven’t beaten a ranked team. Their best win is a 1 score win at Ole Miss. Minnesota on the other hand has a top 10 win and their only loss is a 4 point road loss in one of the toughest places to play. On a neutral field tomorrow they are a double digit favorite over A&M. That’s the problem that the SEC faces in getting a 2nd team in. There just isn’t enough quality from the rest of the league. I believe that Alabama is the 4th best team in the country today. It’s just not going to be easy for them to get in with their best wins coming against an unranked A&M and an Auburn team that may be unranked after the game. It depends if the committee wants best team or best resume. If OU, for example, wins out it will be impossible to deny them that spot (assuming LSU, OSU and Clemson have locked up the other spots). They will have a bunch of good wins and a conference championship.
  5. Brown is a freak but the reason Auburn is just an okay football team is Nix. They are going to have 1 win against a ranked team and that’s an overrated Oregon team. They are going to have 4 losses by this weekend and barely be ranked themselves. The SEC just doesn’t have the depth that it did a decade ago. There are still really good teams in LSU, Alabama, UGA and to a lesser extent Florida. That really isn’t that different though from the Big 10 for example with OSU, PSU, Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin. In the past the SEC was given far more credit because of the depth. As we sit today the Big 10 has 5 of the top 13 and the SEC has 4. They just aren’t going to get the benefit of the doubt like in past years because the gap has closed. I really believe that a 1 loss OU or 1 loss Utah or 1 loss Minnesota is going to jump into the top 4. I think, assuming wins this week, Clemson, Ohio State and LSU are in the playoff regardless of the conference championship games. I believe Alabama is the 4th best team but don’t see how their spot can be justified over a 1 loss conference champ that’s going to have a better resume.
  6. I don’t “not miss him” because he quit at halftime. I don’t miss him because he was done as a football player.
  7. Rudolph always sucked. I remember a certain segment of people here that wanted to draft that guy!!
  8. I’m with you here. Losing close games rips me apart emotionally. I always think “what if ....” When you get beat like the Rams did last night you just kind of go “welp.” Plus it would be a blast leading up to the Super Bowl just like it was in Jax. The anticipation and party was unreal.
  9. Both Goff and McVay have been overrated for a while.
  10. He wins some handicapping pool and something else if they cover. I think it’s about $1500 to him or something like that.
  11. My brother has a bunch of money riding on it so I’ll cheer for the Rams. I actually think it benefits the Bills though if Baltimore wins. It doesn’t help them a lot either way.
  12. I don’t like playing desperate teams. This is the 2nd time this year that we played an NFC East team in a must win scenario. As easy as the schedule has been it’s tough playing teams that absolutely have to win the game. That’s the case here
  13. I was actually thinking about it today and do we want Baltimore? If we beat them it will help our strength of victory and record. We can’t possibly catch them unless we think Cleveland passes them for the division title. I’m not sure that this game matters to us. Am I missing something?
  14. I’m thinking Houston and I LOVE it. That place we can take over as well and it’s a few hour drive for me. We may even take a bus or RV or something from here.
  15. This may be the best I’ve felt after a win this year. That was probably their best performance IMO. They handled their business, clinched my over 7 win bet and pushed my Denver under 7 win bet to the brink.
  16. 64 years $324,645,765,000
  17. Much respect to Frank. That’s an incredible accomplishment. That’s a tale of work ethic, character and talent. ?HOF
  18. My family will be enjoying Thanksgiving and I’ll be at Jerry World. I’m pretty excited about this. It’s kind of a bucket list Bills game for me.
  19. Spencer Long...he’s been active like twice this year Those other 2 are $12m in savings
  20. If they cut Murphy, Kroft and Long they have over $105M in cap space. They can do whatever they want.
  21. Agree 100%, he feels like the type of “do your job” guy.
  22. No mention of Russell Wilson?!? He should have 2 Super Bowls (run the ball Pete!!) and likely will have an MVP after this year. If Wilson wins 1 more game he will be the 1st QB in the 100 year history of the NFL to have a winning record in each of his first 8 seasons.
  23. Shaq to me is the type of guy that plays on really good teams. He’s an above average rotational piece. You still need to get a pass rusher because that’s not him. He’s solid though and can play all over the line. Shaq won’t be too expensive and is an insurance policy against an injury. He’s the perfect 3rd defensive end imo. I’d dump Murphy and hand Shaq some of the savings there.
