And it was Tessio that betrayed Michael Corleone, I always suspected it was Clemenza, but Tessio was smarter.

This year, it was pretty clear that injuries were the significant issue. We couldn't field a quality NFL defense against Reid, Mahomes, Kelce. I think our other defensive problems were lack of consistent pass rush, which they addressed with Von, and the defense looked great until he was hurt. I have no answer for the 13 seconds. That, along with Norwood will haunt me till I die.

I became a much bigger McDermott fan during the stretch run this past season. The team rallied, and he was the leader. It was great coaching and I believe he's a top coach in the league. We will win a super bowl with him.

We probably won't have 11 roster spots that will be realistically available, so I would guess Beane uses a couple picks to move up a few spots in a mid round.

It definitely sounds good, but take into account FA signings, Rousseau needs a new deal, Brown needs one, I'm probably missing someone, but it's still a good place to be considering the past few seasons.

Exactly, I wasn't impressed early when he wasn't on the field often, but when he started to get more action, he made an impact. Like most of our DB's , I would expect continued improvement.

And Knox will add more too

He'll bring in a big ticket player, I'm betting on 2 of them.

If we restructure Allen and Dawkins, maybe Knox. I could see a big ticket FA. If they backload a couple contracts, could make a big splash.

He didn't steal anything. He was recovering from a serious knee injury.

Also, we have a very good Oline coach, entering his 3rd season with the team. I think he knows who will work in his system and who won't. My guess is that he didn't see Bates being the right fit for what he wants to see.

There's another Josh Allen in the league? Why they never mentioned that when we played Jax is beyond me.

just guessing, obviously, but I would expect a restructure to alleviate cap space and no changes to the overall value of the deal. But overall, i think they see Knox as a big asset and want him on the team going forward, and restructures seem to be part of the plan on most big contracts.

because they plan on keeping him on the team a few more seasons and this would help alleviate some cap issues we currently have.

Like many contracts, I think Knox's will get better with time. The cap just had a dramatic increase and league revenues will likely continue to rise substantially. In 2 years we'll have some big contracts off the books and and replaced with younger players deals. I don't think Knox has a contract we should be worried about. Plus, he'll likely have a restructure coming up.

I think Knox is a solid TE, and along with Kincaid, make up the best TE duo in the league. I think there's a lot of value in that. I think they restructure Knox to help the cap hit and keep him here through his prime. I like having 2 strong TE's.

Who says those are terrible ideas?

Why do you think they don't care? I know one party wants nothing to do with gun laws, but I still think most of them still care a bit about the violence.

Most economists from both sides say the economy is very strong. You say it sucks, then state that people are brainwashed by politics. It's as if you're one of the people you're talking about.

This is the media's fault somehow? Who do you think reports on the Chicago violence while ignoring the higher violence rates in other cities? So you think Newtown, Uvalde, Vegas.... got too much coverage?

However bad that number is, it's a 10% decrease from 2022. Many cities have a higher homicide rate.

And while you're focusing on Chicago, St Louis, Birmingham, Jackson MI, and New Orleans all have higher gun violence rates. But let's talk about Chicago because....?

Sorry, maybe I wasn't clear. I wasn't asking you to create a story, I'm guessing this john doe isn't a real person. Which laws aren't being enforced? Can you cite a specific law? Yeah, you're probably right. We don't have nearly enough gun violence to to help come up with any solutions yet. Hopefully, someday.

There will be more shootings in the next 24 hours, so we need to wait another 24 and so on... nothing will ever get discussed with that logic. Which laws are not enforced that would prevent shootings?

Why do you think we have so much more gun violence in this country compared to almost every other developed nation? And why remove suicide? You don't see that as a tragedy for the family ?
