I'm pretty sure he's saying the Jets are better at those positions since the last time they played us. Mike White, Corey Davis, and Michael Carter did not play. Not sure that George Fant is really an upgrade at RT though.

I guess I'm now in the minority on this but I would still welcome OBJ here even if he doesn't contribute meaningfully until the playoffs. I'm just not all that comfortable with Gabe Davis as the automatic #2 WR. With Miller and Hyde both going down for the season and the other injuries that impact our defense seemingly every week, our offense is going to need to pick up the slack a bit. I'm not expecting OBJ to be a superstar here, but I think he can be a difference maker in games that matter. Sign me up for that.

I'd be pretty surprised if OBJ chooses to play on MetLife turf 8 games a year.

This is just as bad as people saying they know he is guilty. Why can't we just accept that no one will ever know for sure and Araiza gets to live his life as a free man? That's how the justice system works.

No, it just means they don't have enough evidence to convict him. The hardest thing to do is say "I don't know" but that's all we can do in this case. I won't be surprised if Araiza lands with a team next year, but I highly doubt he'll ever be a Bill again.

Someone else might have already mentioned this but Jason Peters tore his ACL at 35 and is still playing. I'm confident Von will be back next year, it just sucks that this was our best Super Bowl window year.

There's no lesson. We needed a top tier edge rusher and we paid for one. If you want to be angry about the Von Miller injury that's fair but don't find a way to retroactively blame Brandon Beane for signing him. ACL injuries on turf unfortunately can happen to anyone. And I doubt we'll dump money into OBJ. He isn't going to get the contract he wants. If we sign him it will be a prove it deal that is easy to walk away from if he doesn't get healthy. For me the risk is more than worth it.

Hopefully he has realized that getting a deal that includes next year is impossible at this point. If he's smart he'll prove his worth here with a playoff push where he could be a featured receiver in a top passing offense.

If Dallas is out of the running, it's ours to lose IF we feel better about his knee than they do.

Two years in a row our most important defensive player was lost for the season on turf on Thanksgiving. Come on man.

The coaches were unfortunately primarily responsible for the Vikings loss. Refusing to take 3 easy points and refusing to run the ball when up by multiple possessions. A young replacement level player in Cam Lewis making a stupid play in a big moment, when the coaches should have drilled it into their heads that in that moment you knock the ball down. That game was the result of coaching failures more than execution IMO. But that's the only game this year where I think the coaches failed the players more than the reverse. Considering the ridiculous amount of attrition and brutal schedule we've faced, this year has been McDermott's best so far.

Right, they signed Stevenson to the active roster briefly just to release him, then used that spot to sign Brewer.

Stevenson was not on the 53 man roster, he was on IR. Releasing him didn't open a spot.

That open roster spot was filled by CJ Brewer.

So for everyone guessing an imminent OBJ signing, this squashes that.

Yeah I just saw that, that's certainly interesting.

Stevenson didn't count towards the active roster, he was on IR.

Especially with him still apparently on his visit there. I don't really understand what they're trying to accomplish here. Maybe he'll get turned off by their treatment of him, do the smart thing and sign here for just this season to prove his worth for next year.
