Chicken Boo

When you don't have a QB worth paying, you can afford to pay the best player on the team - your sole reason for being able to win games. $12.5M for Barkley is a drop in the bucket compared to $40M for Daniel Jones.

I called it back when they paid Jones and snubbed Barkley. Some of these GM's are clueless or maybe they just over-think things.

Such a difficult choice. Money or productive career longevity? Cooper was spot on with the "Move or rust" comment. I could go down a list of elite WRs that chose the money and a terrible QB situation only to see their skills deteriorate.

Brandon Aiyuk proving, yet again, why it is imperative for these guys to do whatever it takes to get that big contract while they can. He would have been under the tag. Who was going to pay him $30M AAV next year coming off a season-ending knee injury?

Walker should be the only concern here.

I loved Eric Metcalf.

There is way too much talent on the Jets offense for them to be this bad.

Najee Harris never runs harder than after Jaylen Warren returns from injury and is hot on his heels.

I thought he was out with an injury in the 1st half?

The En Vogue one, not the sucky one that came after.

He's been terrible for quite some time. Both he and Claypool should have played their last downs in the league. They both squandered their talent, in my opinion. For shame...

Can't stand the pre-game shows and couldn't care less who the commentators are. Solely interested in the product on the field. It's easy to criticize the officiating, but how many fans truly realize how difficult of a job that is? The game moves so much faster on the field than it does on your TV screen. The refs aren't viewing the game on a wide angle in 4k. They are eye level. Players not playing during the preseason hurts the product early on in the season for sure. Like you've stated, the real game is about to begin. State of the league is just fine. Look at how much more people are willing to pay to attend a game compared to 10 years ago.

I'm so pumped for the addition of Cooper. I said all along that if Beane made a move for a WR that Amari was the guy to get. He's here now. Barring injury, I already know what happens next. Get ready. 😎

Allen or Dez Bryant, hopefully. He needs to really sharpen his route tree to be Keenan.

Franklin looked just fine last night. I wonder how many catches and yards Coleman would have with Bo Nix as his QB?

Mike Williams is cooked. Dude managed to amass $84M in career earnings on sheer potential.

Fixed that for you.

I don't disagree necessarily, but I have Walsh and Montana right there.

As a wrasslin fan, this is great! 😆 The Rock church-shoes-sliding People's Elbow is his best one 👌🏾

Amari will run circles around every receiver in our current group. Who is McDermott kidding?

The story about how they found out they were cousins is great.

This was the move, not Adams. Good stuff, Beane.

Rodgers has a highlight reel for Hail Mary's. That's like the 3rd or 4th one that I can recall that he's successfully thrown.

Ray ran with a purpose last night. That was the difference.

The temp tag on the minivan expired, forcing me to put the hard tag on. With that came a Buffalo Bills tag bracket, naturally. Also, prior to the start of the game I saw a guy in the grocery store with a Bills pullover and hat on, to which we exchanged "Go Bills!" greetings. I'm in Maryland.
