  1. Adams’ has probably had enough of losing and Raiders culture to not care about sharing catches if it means winning and keeping his paychecks the same. Dude got accustomed to a winning culture and wants to be in one. Diggs probably wouldn’t care about sharing the spotlight either if the result was a SB. They’ve both been paid.
  2. This. I’d imagine the Raiders would want the bills to eat some money and trade a player plus pick back though… Considering McDaniel’s roots it’d likely be Knox in the ask for cap balance; maybe a D-lineman like Oliver though. 🤷‍♂️. Hard to tell how it would go. Evans on the other hand would likely just be for picks, and as an add on for a 2nd-4th…. Worth it. We’ll see how things play out.
  3. That’s brandy old fashioned. You can shower in PBR in front of the police without consequences
  4. Packers for me. Different dynamic with Jones and Watson.
  5. Bills 38 Phins 28 McDaniel gambles on a fourth down late in the game, and the Bills capitalize for the extra field goal.
  6. He definitely protects himself. In must win situations and the playoffs he tends to add back that extra effort.
  7. You can probably add another 10 years to that. They’ve been Chargering since the Bobby Ross era.
  8. Doesn’t help that they both have numbers in the 40’s either.
  9. Edmunds under cut a slant and allowed Jones’ route to be a TD. It was talked about in the post game presser. Edmunds was manipulated to create space. They knew if he followed the drag they’d have Jones iso with Edwards or a free throw underneath, and if he dropped then they’d have an easy first down on the drag.
  10. It makes me wonder about the progression, reads, etc. It certainly seems as though the primary or secondary read a few years ago was often Beasley. The trust might not yet be there with Kincaid or any of the slot receivers, but it probably needs to develop quickly for this ship to turn around fast. Agree on the bailing. We’ll see if that changes against less dominant defensive fronts. I don’t have a lot of faith in Dawkins or Brown to hold off Crosby this week though.

  11. No excuses for Allen, Dorsey or the offense…. D played hard. Under 20 you gotta win
  12. Playing on so many different teams probably helps with his marketability. The guys liked by a ton of fan bases in different markets.
  13. Still chairing Aaron Jones, and Jones hasn’t been in since that TD catch. 😂
  14. I’m sure it’s not, but we’re not privy to all the requirements. Regardless, the options and flexibility that Pegula or Kraft has available are vastly different than other owners like Brown and Davis who rely on the team for income. That capital flexibility is one reason the Bills can restructure players whenever it’s beneficial.
  15. Too many people undervalue the versatility provided by bottom of the roster guys like Gilliam. That versatility saves valuable cap space, same with Bates at his price point. Any player that can play multiple positions on offense or defense along with special teams will have a long - if unheralded - NFL career.
  16. Packers v Bears. I’m curious to see how Love plays. Particularly interesting will be the narrative that ensues if Love plays well this year and the Rodgers led Jets fail to meet expectations.
  17. They may have changed the rules, but there used to be a limit of $150 million with regards to borrowing against the equity of the franchise. That said, they can also sell 30% to partners.
  18. That’s a bit off. It’s 100% of guaranteed money into escrow. Non guaranteed salary can come from elsewhere. That’s why owners fight so hard against fully guaranteed contracts. That interest alone from that Burrow guaranteed money is at a minimum $10 million a year Brown isn’t pocketing. Guys like Pegula, Kraft and Kroenke can swallow it. Same with the Packer without an owner. For guys like Brown and Davis losing that liquidity and interest is a big deal. It’s one of the reasons that the raiders had to trade Kahlil Mack. Separates the rich owners from the guys who survive on NFL cash. Jones is a bit different because of how big the cowboys brand is.
  19. A firefighter that went to Rutgers, a retired air traffic controller, and a Wisconsin AD all on the crew may not bode well for a Rodgers lead Jets team on 9/11 either…. Kind of feels like drawing the short straw.
  20. With regards to the Dolphins…. They seem to forget that the last time the Bills played a Fangio defense they had 534 yards of offense, 5 touchdowns, and two field goals. Fangio is a great coordinator, but no DC can actually stop a top QB that’s figured out a defensive scheme.
  21. That offense will probably look very similar (at least to fans) to what Rodgers and Hackett ran under LaFleur. A lot of WCO concepts mixed with zone runs. Motion to spread out the defense and isolate receiving matchups on the wide side of the formation or create numerical advantages in the run game. Blitzing Rodgers can work, but it’s usually only effective if a lineman drops into coverage. Rodgers generally won’t be fooled, but the goal is to confuse a lineman or two and get a free rusher, so rarely blitzing but enough to make the line worry about it is key. Same thing goes for coverages… confuse the younger WRs into running routes incorrectly. Rodgers generally will not throw inside to guys he doesn’t trust. That said, Hyde and Poyer may be able to get one over on Rodgers here and there.
