Of course I wouldn’t be saying the same thing if someone was killed. There’s a pretty big difference between getting into a wreck where everyone walks away versus someone being killed. It was a stupid situation, and I’m sure he’ll face some sort of consequence, but it’s not like he’s OJ Simpson or Von Miller.

You’re right. TMZ is famous for understating situations rather than sensationalizing them. Those other cars rolled over and burst into flames, and there are surely injuries that fall just under the threshold of “life threatening”. Rice is going to serve prison time. This is basically Henry Ruggs part 2. 🥱

Not “any” injuries. It’s $10k and a potential loss of license if the injuries are minor which they were. Nobody is going to jail over this. Sorry to burst everyone’s bubble, but worst case scenario is probably a 4 game suspension. There’s literally video of the occupants of the cars getting out and walking away without so much as a limp.

That’s his Corvette, but he wasn’t driving it. The video shows him getting out of the Lambo. He’s the second guy getting out of the Lambo through the passenger door which likely means he was the driver.

You think Rice is getting cuffed over this?

Punishable with a maximum fine of $10,000 and loss of a license in TX. Nobody is going into custody.

Why would anyone be in custody? It was a traffic accident. There’s pictures of the drivers walking away on foot. The cars have damage, but they aren’t mangled or anything. Sounds like they were being stupid, but nobody’s getting arrested over speeding on the Dallas expressway unless they were driving impaired.

Hopefully he’s got Von Miller’s lawyer’s number.

Huff might be better three years from now and it may put NY in a worse draft and cap position three year from now, but the Jets aren’t trying to win three years from now. They’re all in right now, and Reddick is a much better player today. Huff had a career year from a sack standpoint, but Reddick still had more while being a much better overall player. I’m not a huge believer in “approximate value” metrics, but Reddick was an 8 last year, and Huff was a 2. The year before, Reddick was a 15, and Huff was a 1. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/H/HuffBr00.htm https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/R/ReddHa00.htm That said, I don’t really disagree with anything you said up until the ‘Douglas loss, Howie win’ part. Philly’s been to two Superbowls and won one in the last 6 years. They’re trying to build for the long-term. The Jets don’t have that luxury. They’re taking a rifle shot at winning now. This “trade” furthers both of their interests, IMO.

You’re really trying to pretend that Bryce Huff is as good as Haasan Reddick?

Kansas City has an all Pro center playing on the last year of his rookie contract. They’ve also got Trey Smith and Nick Bolton who are up for new contracts after this season as well. I don’t think they can sign all three of them. Buffalo has a need at Center and is without a third round pick. Creed and a third round in exchange for Buffalo’s first would be an interesting option, IMO.

That’s not accurate at all in terms of bing a polished product. A huge part of his draw was the fact that he was raw since he didn’t start playing football until his senior year of high school.

He traded up to get Kincaid just last year who turned 24 shortly after the start of the season. He’s about the same age as Gabe Davis.

Good for him. He’s a great player who has earned next to nothing by NFL standards. He’s also a good dude who has lived a very rough life. It’s nice to see a guy like that get a huge payday.

Just looking at the preseason Superbowl odds: 2024: +1100 2023: +900 2022: +600 2021: +1100 Vegas thinks the team has taken a small step back.

Given that Kansas City has jumped them the past two years and come away with Trent McDuffie and Rashee Rice, I’m not sure that trading back behind the Chiefs this year is a great strategy.

I can’t believe anyone trades away anything for the right to sign a guy to the biggest contract in history. It’s GM malpractice.

Might get you pick 20.

Congrats on finally getting Internet access in upstate NY. You'll get better once you figure it out.

His value is his versatility. He's not great at any specific role, but you can use him anywhere. He can play deep safety, box, and even slot corner without being a liability. IMO, he's the best overall Safety on the roster. Still think Beane adds a definitive starter, though.

By "leave" they mean moving across state line. Even that's not going to happen, but this would be like threatening to move the Bills from Buffalo to Orchard Park.

The biggest need on the team, IMO is a pass rusher. Floyd led the team with 10.5, and he's gone. Oliver had 9.5, but that was a massive outlier for him. He had 9.5 in his previous three seasons combined. I think his number decreases a bit next year, and maybe Von gets a couple to make up the difference. That puts a lot of pressure on guys like Rousseau and Epenesa who have yet to really prove themselves as pass rushers.

I suppose if you choose to ignore the part of my post where I used an 8 year window and a ten year window and then also choose to ignore the part about Brady then my post didn't make as much sense.

Depends how you want to want to measure it, 5 of the last 6 have been won by Mahomes or Brady. That counts as "usually" to me. Granted, that's a bit of a cherry picked window, so you could go with the last decade which would be 7 out of 10 which would also qualify. Then again, a few of those years were before Mahomes was even in the league. Since he was drafted in 2017, it would be 6 out of 8. During that stretch, Brady has won 3, Mahomes has won 3, and all other QBs combined have won 2. So, yeah. The Superbowl is usually won by the team with either Mahomes or Brady.

Saying that Aikman was basically Kirk Cousins might be paying Troy a compliment.
