Doc Brown

Ties are also a metric. A little bit over the top reaction maybe given this is the dead time of year for the NFL. I almost want to do a Tyler Bass over/under 30 made field goals thread now.

It'll be tough now that Lee Smith is gone.

Tepid pushback from what I've seen so far. I wouldn't write Brown off even with a write-in campaign with Buffalo slowly on the upswing. You'll get at least double the turnout this November compared to the primary with Republicans and Independents eligible to vote. I'm guessing more moderate democrats and Independents would rather see Brown in office than a self described socialist. They've already dug up her past to portray her as a welfare queen who wants to defund the police (crime is up in Buffalo and across the country) so Republican turnout should be high. Brown also has the incumbency advantage and a lot of money that will be at his disposal. I guess if there was ever a write in campaign that would be successful this would be it.

Thanks Captain Hindsight

Florida ended its federal unemployment benefits a week ago. You may want to try a different hotel or keep yelling at the clouds.

Some are decent articles the MSM won't report. Some are crap articles like that.

At least they died with their freedom intact. It’s redstate.com

It's prudent today given an opt out was raised as a real concern with him.

I have no clue where his mind is at. Definitely a free spirit.

Unrelated topic. Is today the last day for Beasley to opt out if he wanted to? I remember sweating out T. White last year. Haven't seen anything about Beasley yet today.

This is the danger of hot takes based off one job report.

I'd rather make the playoffs than Hard Knocks. Nice to not have to worry about it being forced on us.

You too?

Ertz is only 30. It's not like we're going after Greg Olsen here.

Good point. That extra game is going to devalue a lot of NFL single season records.

People see what they want to see often without any teeth to back the claims up.

Didn't know they passed that on a federal level. As far as wage growth, it slows during recessions and there's always a period of above normal wage growth to get back to where it would've been if there wasn't a recession. That's what your seeing in the leisure and hospitality industry right now.

Not really. The labor shortage has been predictable given many people have been incentivized to stay home for a variety of reasons. Once fear of the virus dissipates, enhanced federal unemployment benefits ends, federal rent and evictions moratorium ends, and kids go back to school full time we should get back to a pre pandemic normal.

I always look at the guaranteed money for my simple mind as agents tend to hype player contracts based on inflated annual averages. Ramczyk got 60 million guaranteed on a 5 year extension (10 million per year). Compare that to Dawkins who got 29.6 million guaranteed on a four year extension (about 6 million per year) and D. Williams three year deal (about 4.6 million per year). It makes both the Dawkins and Williams deal seem like a bargain.

They should be held accountable and it's no coincidence both Obama and Trump became president as neither had to make that vote. If you want to go strictly by party breakdown though in the House 127 Dems, six Republicans, and one Socialist voted against it. Similar ratio in the Senate with 21 Dems voting against it, one Republican (later turned Democrat), and one Independent.

They're both staying as they'll rotate the two kids with the two vets at DE. McDermott is already salivating at the thought of three young guys competing all year for two roster spots each Sunday.

They also benefited from a softer schedule getting to play the Jags and the Bengals compared to us (Titans and Steelers) and won a few games just on defensive and special team touchdowns which isn't sustainable.

I did. Why do you think some people are panicking?

This is mostly how I've seen him too. He's shown flashes of what he can become but has been way too inconsistent to give him a market setting long term deal. It just seems the game moves too fast for him for whatever reason especially when he's in coverage. It's frustrating given he's an athletic freak that the Bills gave up a third round pick to trade up for. The pro bowl selection this year was a joke.

I don't know the answer but the only problem going by that metric is Edmunds wouldn't be as "fresh" as the players finishing ahead of him giving them the advantage.
