  1. Wonder if Higgins got concussed three times? The protocol and blue tent system is a fugazzi Did the execs vote on it? Love this!
  2. Already answered weeks ago
  3. Nick mccloud still making his way around the league. Always wanted the bills to get him back, a 6-1 corner they drafted a few years ago.
  4. Yeah well we can felt that happen can we?
  5. He looked horrendous on that play...might need new cleats but it looked like awful effort
  6. It is incredible how much it just looks so easy for burrow vs this defense. It’s like playing the kids in the backyard.
  7. I don’t think they would make up an injury to make the switch. Yes he is a captain but he can be replaced. Plus we all watched the injury happen. Not sure why you would think they made it up.
  8. Absolutely he needs to step it up.
  9. Is it possible the new field meets standards?
  10. And he got $9.7 million for doing that, I did not intend to say it was just where is family is or is not, sorry it you took it that way. I laid out the financial benefits for him to go finish the season somewhere else. It is not just one thing (money or family) it is several. At least I bet those are the things going through his head and discussing with his agent. And that contract has parameters for both parties, he does not get to not show up and get paid his base.
  11. Not saying this does not happen but it is against the rules to do that while a player is on waivers
  12. Having thought through some of the details financially, it is not super surprising a guy n Slay's shoes could make this decision. He has made $120,000,000 in the NFL so he has generational wealth. This past year he signed a one year $10,000,000 with the Steelers. At this point there is only $348,000 left to earn or roughly 3.5%. In order to earn that 3.5% he will have to move his family or just himself during the holidays. What he is giving up financially is not much, it would be $3500 for a more common person making $100,000. Would you pick up and move for that if you had some other priorities? Also understand there s risk in my trying to earn that $348,000 at 34 years old, if he tears an ACL his career is likely done while if he goes and hangs with the family, gets to the offseason he can probably get another 3-5M to play somewhere next year. You could argue some kind of moral obligation or something but I will just say I can see why in this situation he can sleep ok doing what he is doing.
  13. No the trade deadline has passed
  14. Yeah it could not be because he is a good veteran WR who happens to be available. I am surprised they are not signing guys from the other 8 or so potential playoff matchups
  15. That does not require a claim
  16. I would jump on the chance to get Slay
  17. Per the NYT’s playoff simulator, the Bengals have a 76% chance of making the playoffs if we win our remaining 5 games. It’s unlikely we can make it as a wild card, seeing that multiple teams would need to implode weeks 13-18. Therefore, our best bet of making the playoffs is for us to win the AFC North 76% means probably and is not undue optimism. It’s based on data. It’s fine if you don’t believe it or want to actually understand the scenario. Go to the simulators and you will see if you want, or just pontificate…whatever you want to do. My whole point is that you going to get a big effort from the bengals because they will feel they are still alive and the division is in play. On top of getting shot in the arm with Burrow returning.
  18. Yes because they can win their division. It’s an opinion. If they were to win out they are favorites to win the north.
  19. The bengal will probably make the playoffs if they win out. Don’t live they come in knowing they can salvage their season. Really hope they can show better vs burrow this time.
  20. Could be 5 or 6. Gotta be positive!
  21. The bills are revolutionizing a new position. Introducing the “Wide Blocker”
  22. He did not have the hand as heavily bandaged. Don’t take what u said the wrong way. He was slowed by that injury, do you disagree?
  23. Hate to say it but this is like old school pats methodically beating down their opponent.
