  1. That they had offered him a new deal was known. Highest paid but no actual numbers just sounds like a smokeshow - how much was guaranteed, highest paid yearly average or highest paid total? Just seems like more propaganda by the Packers terrible FO so when he retires or forces his way out of town that they did "everything possible, even offering him the 'highest paid' QB contract in the league." I wish the Packers would just trade Rodgers, that team has consistently done him wrong. Andy Dalton got a phone call when the Bears drafted a QB and he was just figuring out how to walk into the building, Aaron is an MVP and one of the best QBs ever and he didn't know they were trading up in the 1st to draft his supposed replacement. They trade away or cut his favorite WRs (Jordy Nelson, traded Kumerow like the day after Rodgers talked about being excited to play with him). If I'm Aaron I just go host Jeopardy til the team trades me or I show up the last week possible to get credit for the year and try and force my way out next year.
  2. I feel like we already knew this, Schefter seems to be grasping at straws to present this as new information. It's pretty clear that Aaron would like to not play in GB anymore because of the clownshows running the team
  3. Nice to hear but at this point Breida is more valuable as he has a much better chance of actually contributing on the field.
  4. Bell was a good runner whose strength was his vision and patience, he was never some dynamic gamechanger who could play behind any line. When he was playing well, a large part of his big plays could be attributed to the o-line that was opening huge holes for him. I said this the first time he was running around looking for a huge FA contract. His play behind a subpar line with the jets confirmed this. He wasn't fast enough to be able to afford to lose a step, well he's lost one now and I doubt he starts again in this league.
  5. I like it and I would posit that it is better for the brand. I completely understand wanting to see the whole thing in one go, in the case of Loki you could always just tune in 6 weeks after the show premieres and watch the whole thing. Now my argument for weekly releases versus the netflix all in on dump Why it's better for the show: Good shows build up buzz. The time between episodes is filled with youtube easter egg and theory videos, articles written about the show and general discussion between friends, who can discuss the show on equal footing because they are all at the same point in the series. Shows like Mandalorian and Loki create a buzz that can last for several months. Witcher was a decent show, but the buzz with that show lasted about a week and then everyone forgot about it. Why it's fun for us: Level playing-field - everyone can only have watched up to the same point, you can't do that with dump shows. Has anyone mentioned Patriot on Amazon Prime? I love that show.
  6. I lol'd when I saw this thread was revived, I completely forgot about it. Thanks for the question. I didn't wind up buying one. Some people have backs that are messed up and need serious help, I dunno what to recommend for that; in my case I just decided to work on better fitness and made a few quality of life purchases that helped. 1- I started working out my back muscles a lot more to strengthen them. 2- Bought a mattress pad and that made a big difference, I have a 3 inch tempur-pedic. 3- I upgraded my office chair with a Herman Miller one. 4- I got a percussion massage gun for muscle tightness and I just go get a massages when I'm super sore. My masseuse has one of those tens machines teef mentioned. Back feels a lot better, thanks.
  7. Singletary disrespected the offense by fumbling key plays and generally not being good.
  8. I see too many people here making the same mistakes of years past - getting infatuated with a player's potential rather than his history of production. We have a TE who has made some nice plays but has also dropped critical passes and does has not been a consistent player for this team. Knox is being overvalued. I see the inverse logic being applied to the veteran here. Ertz has consistently been productive with the exception of last year for which we could come up with a myriad of excuses for him. People are pitting potential over a proven commodity and I don't think that's appropriate. We know Ertz is good, we hope Knox could be. Hollister is whatever, if he's good that's a bonus.
  9. WOW, I dunno how I thought you started it. Apologies, I'm deleting those posts as I was way off base.
  10. While I enjoy the descriptive title, it is based on no actual evidence or news. Someone on a fan site suggesting the Bills trade an aging pass-rusher does not equate to a single buzzard. A more apt title would be "Some guy thinks we could trade an older player but both players identified 'wouldn't likely fetch too much for either considering their age and finances at play'."
  11. I'd suggest that feelings, more specifically feeling sorry about yourself, is not part of the growth mindset.
  12. I don't see how having Ertz is somehow killing Knox's development. It's football, are we not all for competition at every position?
  13. Good cornerback. Plays with very little heart.
  14. Title is super offensive to the Polish community on this board. Don't worry guys I don't think any of you are simple.
  15. Suppose it is. I guess I just don't think of him as a threat so I don't bother with him.
  16. Thanks J, please PM me that list so I can continue to get better wherever I can.
  17. I don't get the derision for Cam. You'd think he wronged this board somehow
  18. She's speculating about things inside the Bills' building, where the poster does not think she has any sources. If she were reporting based upon a source in the Eagles organization then she would be speculating as to "apprehension" in Buffalo without having direct knowledge of it. I don't see apprehension, I see a goal to improve at all positions when possible. If her source is in Philly, she's a poor writer. If the Bills were "apprehensive" they would have overpaid for a TE in FA. Either way, I don't see anything rising to the point of "insulting" or any other emotional response you have to that post.
  19. This is the one time I would be happy with us going to Europe to play. Just cause I'd want to go.
