IS THIS REALLY WHAT WERE WORRIED ABOUT? OH HE'LL GET A BUNCH OF CALLS BY BEING NICE TO REFS? That strategy is already known since, 100 years ago. Being nice to someone versus screaming and yelling at them may get you more favorable results?! I cant believe the level of hysteria in here. WHO WILL KEEP HIM AWAY FROM OTHER TEAMS PRACTICE FACILITY? The same people thatd stop me you or Ghengis Khan from walking in lol he's the most recognized dude in America, but a teams security might let him slip by!!!!!! Ok, he ninja spy tip toes past security, and talks to a player!!! Whoa, that guy might not know to not tell another teams owner, Tom Brady, their entire scheme for the week!!!!!!! The Raiders are awful. The Bills are good, and will be another 10 years, the drought is gone

Read the word "Privilege" and hit X. If you cant bother to put effort into article title, no way im reading long form. Also, hes an announcer not a ref. Stupid, stupid, stupid

Yep. Imagine him helping Keon, and we roll into the physical ass playoffs. We're no longer the "jam, yank around and hold" WR core that killed our run '21 & '22. Now we just g2 teach our corners how to hold in playoffs. Maybe Elam can get the starters up to speed 🤔 🤣 Were talking about a perennial 1k yarder, when we don't have a career year 500yd season.... and we have Josh. Sure your quote makes sense for dentures, underwear, and glory hole visits. But I don't think ben Franklin is jiving with your take on Cooper

Does anybody think that isn't coming very soon? Nfl scores are notoriously tight and we have a guy who kicks 75%, and can't line up past 40. I don't wish it but if that's what they're waiting for he's going to be as clutch as Justin Tucker at delivering that loss

Think this number will get worse, and i also think we've chose to be aggressive on 4th over setting him up for failure at 40+. Which is a crazy low bar. I was young for most of those guys, but those guys were given a lot more chances from 40+. Take any one of those guys, stick them into the strategy we've employed with Bass the last 10-12mos, and their numbers are 100% going up. The comparative trajectories are going opposite ways

What kids????? Jkkkkkk lol my fav thing to do as a father is come home and try to get the kids fired up my current thing, even though they have no clue what I mean I'll come home raving about some burrito I saw on the internet, and have them screaming BURRITOSSSSSS at their mom 🤣🤣 They don't know what that is, but they'll gladly yell about it at mom with me!!!

At least that was a mental error. It wasn't a holy smokes this guy physically can't hang.... that would be bust flag #1. Rookie, misses time early season. Low reps. Cold off the bench, oh and its nico freaking collins

Chill. Swap his name with Terrell Bernard and we saw this same thread 2 years ago, but worse. I'm not saying he's that, but can confidently say we have no clue yet. Goosefrabah Link your proposed draft pick at the time he was drafted. We don't know Jack Schmidt about the 2024 rookie class, none of them. Unless you're one of those "never learn from history guys"

Its both. Dude is so out of it i bet if he was honest would say- it's everything and nothing, I dont have anything consistent to adjust from. What way is up? It's 100% his head. I'm 100% in the ir him camp. Figure it out next year and proli cut him He's talking the mental aspects and over thinking. I 100% get it. Sometimes you get to where you're thinking too much Your best bet becomes, think about nothing and just swing. At least get back to a baseline. He's trying to deal with like 4 moving pieces at once. He needs a "control group" to adjust from. And its gone. LOOK AT TIGER! THIS IS IT

You see the Oregon onside kick vs Michigan? Taylor Lewan said "he just hammer-fd the ball at this dude" lol https://youtu.be/LckVGp-AChs?si=H1F0nmO3V1-EQuq6

This is route that they need to go. I see tons of good kicking in college every year. Turn over every f*n rock between 2020-2023 class

Worst case if he's even average, sign him to minimal deal, keep him around. Carrying bass into playoffs is 100% certain to have us fall short, and it will be a very painful close game with multiple missed kicks I'd rather have a mildly below average backup FAMILIAR with team and staff, then i would emergency bass misses 4fgs and 3 pats stretch of 2 weeks.... and now omg! What do weeeeeee dooooooo!!!!!

No lol start the WR pipeline. Kicks it off with a top young WR to keep costs controlled at position, and then you need to take another each year between round 1-3 or 1-4. We don't want to have to shop FA for top WR. With Josh here this is the only way to keep the cupboard stocked rest of his career, and is the only position that works synergistically with Josh. Prioritize the 1 + 1 = 10 option (This doesn't fully mean don't re sign him if he works out here, it means prepare the position for every scenario in the future)

It blows my mind how there is a kicker shortage. Last Saturday I saw several clutch long kicks, and I saw the two best onsides kicks, the type either would've been the best one nfl has seen in 15years.... either one. What the hell is harder about nfl than college?! The rush is a little quicker? Is that literally it? Kicking is bad around the league. Give each team an extra roster spot to carry an extra kicker only....let these teams have an extra roster spot to develop some of these kicker. Is there nfl fans that like seeing 35-40yd FGs decide outcomes of games? I can't wrap my head around this being a real problem

Get the kid mandatory sports psychologist, prescription Xanax, and a few dime purse whookers! Dude needs to chill and get some confidence; and at this point artificial or authentic confidence isn't an option we have 🙈

We built a playoff physicality/size WR room!

Refs being subjective should be a part of the game. They've overcomplicated so many rules these guys are second guessing things they already know. "What is a catch" is a perfect example. 2 feet, reasonable control of the ball. The "Well he shifted the ball after the catch going to the ground/out of bounds" kinda BS is where these go bad. Dudes catch the ball, transfer/tucker it down into a running with the ball position and suddenly it's not a catch. GARBAGE

They need a complete revamp. This season has finally convinced me NFL peaked and their profits WILL take a hit, even if it takes 5 years to catch up. The growth curve can not continue while alienating your core fan base. Sure they have women watching more than any time in history, and it's awesome. Seeing my wife become a fan since we met has warmed my heart in a wild way.... but when core fans stop turning on the TV, what happens to the "secondary" viewers.... wives, kids in the house. Neighbors who really only come for the hang and then the league starts winning them over into a "real fan". My Fandom has soooo many secondary eyes. In-laws. I personally bring 15-20 sets of secondary eyes onto the product... but when me and other core fans shut the TV off, the growth curve is NOT sustainable. ^^^and I know what I'm talking about is probably half or more of the fans on this board

Get over it honestly. Tired of these refs being pampered. Refs make $200-$250k a year, and likely have the best benefits in the country. $23k in 401k contributions a year. Part time work. If it's a soft A, and they're both black, GET OVER IT. There are delivery drivers getting $2/hr at Domino's without benefits that have to hear that 1,000xs a shift. Hard R, sure do what ya gotta do. But you hearing a word you hear all game, does not supercede product on the field. League is hot trash. Any one of the gripes from today would be fine. But when there's 15 bad and unnecessary flags, it's egregious and I don't care what words you hear 🤷‍♂️

This is interesting. Seemed like a tuck rule at the time, but wild if you have this right. It's goes to show how garbage the product on the field is, they took a bunch of common sense rules that worked for decades and way over specified rules. See "what is a catch" for example 1A. Remember watching games and everybody knew what a catch was. Now we need a receivers mother's astral sign, and her tendencies during a hazy waxing gibbous moon to decide. Common sense of 2 feet down, not bobbling worked fine for 5 decades. We shouldn't need a lawyer on the field to dictate bi-law rulings. Give a solid foundation of rules and let the refs use common sense/feeling to enforce the spirit of the rule.

If the league didn't want it this way, 0 chance it'd last 10 years like it has. The league is dictating this to refs. I don't think it's as obvious as "hey we need the jets to win this, big market team, make it happen." I'd assume it's similar to NBA playoffs where the league talks to crews before games with a couple rules they want to really dictate that week.... those talking points coincidentally line up with keeping a game close, or keeping a big market star from having their season bust by week 6,etc etc

That "rule guy" they bring in to talk down to us fans who've watched the sport and have known it out our whole lives is known as "The Minister of Propoganda" in my home. You can tell me the chicken I'm looking at is clearly a duck for 5years, I won't forget what a chicken looks like. Whoa lol he's as sick of it as we are. Instead of 10 bad penalties/make up calls a game, maybe put the flags away and let a team actually win it

Same man. I was never more then a here and there, tune in for big matchup - college football guys. And Sunday i had 2 tvs going all day, big TV 4 bills, (then the best 4p game), small TV gets runner up. 10 years this was my house on Sundays. Now I think how in the heck did I think there were 4-6 good nfl games a week??? Maybe there used to be, but certainly isn't more. Saturday is my new Sunday, there's 10 awesome games Saturday, few at; 12p, 3-4p, 7p, 10p, usually a good Friday night game or two as well. I used to think college fans huffed their own farts and loved them, a smugness, how could amateurs be better than pros at anything? Welp, in a span of 2 years i have completely flipped. I watch Bills game, and then I'll cherry pick a game here and there (balt vs Washington sunday). My point is, NFL is unwatchable a ton, and reffing is a part of it, but a lot of small decisions accumulating over time have made it that way. I'd bet there are a TON like me. Icarus flew too close to the sun, and if i have traded Saturday for Sunday, then it's only a matter of time before the nfl is #2, and it's been incredibly well earned by them 🤷‍♂️

My god the butchering of names in this thread put my over

Weird. Any bar I've been to you give a card and they hold it behind the bar. Worst case end of night they run it. I doubt his card bounced. If I had to guess he's used to the same thing, they saw a VIP, started serving him as soon as he got recognized and didn't ask for a card from him. Dude gets smashed and leaves thinking he can grab it another day or call up tell them to put a nice tip on it and cancel card after it runs and tell them to toss it. UGA aren't known for being scholars or choirboys, but he'd have to be incredibly dumb to think he'd pull a fast one as James Cook in America's smallest city
