And how do you feel when a team signs a guy to a three year deal and then they cut him after year 1? It's the same thing. If the guy plays well he wants to get paid more. If he plays poorly the team wants out. I have no issue with teams cutting guys, but I support the player holding out for a new deal any time they want. The real money is made in signing bonus in the NFL and if they outplay their contract they should get paid. All that said, the NFL and NFLPA has got the rookie structure dialed in nicely now. The slotting of money prevents the insane contracts to first round rookies of yesteryear like Sam Bradford got. It pushes more money to the vets.

Define really good? There are consequences to tying up that much cap space in a QB. So it is a bit more complicated than you are making it out to be. In a perfect world if he was the 10th best QB he would be paid as the 10th best QB. But that is not how it works. Guys get overpaid just because it is their time to get a new contract or teams are desperate - see Vikings.

At his current level of play? No. If he cracks the top 10 of QB play then you overpay to keep him because it would be very difficult to replace him. Most indications are that Josh is improving in most aspects of the game. He still has a long way to go to be a top 10 guy. With the supporting cast and defense, if he keeps the turnovers down this team should win 10 games and the division even with the schedule they have.

4 games striagth against NFC wodul be awful way to start the season. That then means in the next 12 games, 6 will be against the AFC East. That is way too compressed. I'm sick of the current schedule format of playing division teams twice. Compressing it down to 12 games makes it that much worse. Get rid of the divisions and just play each team every other year. 32 games against 31 other opponents. It's not that hard to figure out

One of the most-lopsided deals I have ever seen. Bill O'Brien must think he is Belichick and can win without any skill players SDH

Yes He got better as the year went on. If they let Spain walk, I can see them moving Ford to LG. It really depends on what happens with Spain and free agency. I favor putting the best 5 guys out there and don't care if Ford is at guard or RT. Best five with Spain is Ford at RT.

He can't tackle. Should fit right in with the rest of our linebackers.

1000 more yards, 10 more TD passes and 3 fewer Interceptions That is at least 30 or 40% improvement. Yes he still has a long way to go to get to elite but that is a massive improvement in one year.

Only one forced turnover. Pass rush was much improved. Eli is a turnover machine so I predict at least 3 INT. Run defense was good enough but had a few lapses. They need to stack the box and stop the run this week. Edmunds should probably spy Barkley the entire game. He is the Giants only weapon and when he lines up out of the backfield they should double team him with Edmunds and a DB.

I ranked them Allen, Rosen, Darnold, Mayfield, and Jackson. At this point I'm not sure I would reorder them. I still think Rosen has a chance to prove himself. Unbelievably he is now on the two worst rosters in the NFL in a row. I still am not sold on Mayfield. He started well last year then tailed off. I always thought Jackson was a better passer than most of the media and this board thought. But his college completion % and low Wonderlic put him last on my list. As for Darnold - watch any game where he was rushed in the pocket and the outcome was not good. Maybe that is true of most college QBs. Right now I don't think he will be anywhere close to Carson Palmer but will probably be better than Sanchez.

If it is a 25 yard FG yes you kick it. A 52 yard kick no way. If he misses the kick they get the ball at the spot of the FG. They then only need to go about 20 yards to get in FG range and you risk losing the game. You win 99.999% of the time punting the ball there. You can't take a knee or risk an incompletion there. You should try getting the first down running as they did.

We will know much more in 7 games. He looked good last weekend. Comp % was way up. Only a few balls that were far off target. The pick six was not on him.

I've been an anti-Murphy guy. But to be fair, he had a good game against the Jets. His pass rush was mostly taking wide routes around the RT. I didn't see him involved in many stunts. But he held his own in the run game and was active down the stretch making some plays. I think Lawson is a solid DE in the NFL and if people can be reasonable he should be signed to an extension.

I would play Ford 75% of the time at RT rotating with Nsekhe. Can't put Feliciano on the bench at this point. I did not think much of his signing but he was quite good today.

I agree. It was a real worry of mine. The team did not quit. That has happened before with McD. But today they were pretty darn good pre-snap. Could be better - one off-sides and one delay of game averted by a TO. But all in all they looked prepared.
