Alabama has done this for years. They look for coaches who are trying to rehab their reputation so they can have a really experienced and top flight coaching staff. E.g. Hiring a 2 time NFL head coach to be their OL coach. It's one of the benefits of being seen as a top flight organization.

Maybe this is it? Looks like it was a special just for 2021 training camp. Might find it on Ebay, and this might help to know the name: https://www.fanatics.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/buffalo-bills-new-era-2021-nfl-training-camp-panama-bucket-hat-white/o-3538+t-70483590+p-71010513187+z-9-3467761987

I remember hearing something concerning the potential Dolphins trade and that Ross was looking into the possibility the lawsuits would be settled. I wonder if it was this offer he was looking into.

Just don't switch to The Muppet Show.

You're claiming that someone like Keith Oberman would be political?! Crazy talk.

Have their been any studies of hockey goalies? I would think the flexibility would be an asset.

Yes, and that is because these are not guaranteed contracts. If a player underperforms, the team will cut him. Except for guaranteed money, the contracts are worthless...and that works both ways. If the player over-performs he wants the contract torn up and replaced. It's the way the business of the NFL works. Contracts are not honored on either side and, for the most part, that system works for both sides.

Who's that DB Miller in the video with him?

It's weird, isn't it? I think OTA's are going on today and I see nothing about it. Remember when there would be like 5 quarterbacks competing for a starting job and we would have to know every rumor about every pass completed or missed even if activities were behind closed doors? The off season is much more interesting when the team sucks....but oh the games themselves are soooo much better. It's a reasonable trade off.

So why do they seem to love the Cowboys so much?

He's no longer my QB.

Wake up, people. He's the reason we continue to suck and miss the playoffs EVERY year and are a laughing stock of the league. Oh wait...

Yes, that works very well when players put up with it. It helps when the best player on the team not only backs him up but accepts being humiliated, too. When that schtick wears thin, things can fall apart in a hurry. I still think that Bellichick is a brilliant strategist and the way he was able to work his players (no days off) is a big part of his success. However, without Brady backing him up, I am not sure how long he would have lasted.

Good to have you back, Kirby. Nate Peterman threads aren't the same without you.

Is it just me or does Araiza sound like Josh Allen? Not so much his voice but his mannerisms when he answers...like the little laugh before answering. Also the way he talked about being his own toughest critic.

I also think it is a huge advantage that our only west coast game is the first game of the year. That way they don't need to travel and adjust after a game.

Maybe he stole a Pontiac.

I was an English major, so I hate to question your math on this, but wouldn't August be 8 months? January would be one month (and it's the first month), February (2nd month) would be two months....so August (the 8th month) would be eight months from mid December, right?

Yeah, it's not Baker's talent that is the problem. He's not top tier, but certainly a decent qb. The problem is that contract. Not only is it guaranteed (at I think 18 million), but it is a one year deal. In that podcast everyone jumped all over Baker for saying that he wanted to go to a fans' work and boo them. The part that caught my attention was him saying that even if he doesn't like the place where he is traded he can just play for a year and then leave. Do teams really want to pay that for a one year rental? If he doesn't like it there, he can leave...or if he plays great he can hold the team up for a king's ransom. The other option is get him to agree to an extension now, but while he is a decent qb, I don't think anyone trusts that he is good enough that they want to extend him, particularly not at going rate for qbs. Unless Cleveland is willing to eat a bunch of his salary (which I've heard they don't want to do), I don't see anybody willing to take this on.

He nate her big what?!!

What do you mean? Didn't you see that first TD pass to Knox against the Patriots? Josh probably had LESS than five minutes in the pocket before he had to throw it away and Knox just happened to grab it.

Wait...point of clarification. Do you mean Rambo (First Blood 2) or Rambo 2 which would actually be First Blood part 3, I guess.

I saw the same thing said about Bernard. That and agility must be a trait they look for.

Some guy named Howie Long went there...apparently played in the league for a bit.

Yeah, seems like a McDermott kind of guy in terms of attitude. Also the quick report I read on him said big and physical but not great speed. Reads QBs eyes well and anticipates. Sounds like a really good zone type CB in McD's system, and think we needed the depth. Maybe they also feel that there is enough OL depth that they can get one later in the round.
