So far half right...

Anyone but the Bengals.

Dang.

Yeah I've heard the same about Sanders and Deion's presence makes it worse and might be trying to pull what Archie Manning did with Eli. Allar and Weigmann are guys I've heard things about but neither are top-3 worthy. That leaves Ward who may have hurt himself by sitting-out the 2nd half of that bowl game. A lot more will be known after all-star games, the Combine, Pro Days and interviews.

Top-3 yes. I was talking about giving up a lot of picks to move to 1 (with the Patriots) to take one. That's possible. But it's moot now.

Jeremy2020 had it perfect: "The Bills were playing like a team that didn't want any injuries or to show anything to teams for the playoffs. Costing the Pats #1 OA was just a bonus. There is one person to blame that the Pats weren't playing like that as well and it's not on another team."

I wasn't disputing that we should be happy they lost the 1st overall. I'm saying that even if they had it, their poor drafting would have still been a problem.

In a draft with a consensus franchise QB, sure. This isn't one of those.

If you meant a distant 2nd, meaning the best of 3 other bad teams, sure.

Yup. Players have all sorts of reasons to want to win. Coaches too if their jobs are not secure.

I'm not sure any team would have given up picks to move up in the draft to take Ward, much less Sanders.

Where is this?

You can hope for Miami to lose and the Broncos to win. Not if they keep drafting as poorly as they have been. And the jury is still out on Maye. I remember the hype around Mac Jones after his rookie season as well.

And what's better is it likely saved Mayo's and their GM's job.

So will theirs. And Lamar will make his usual playoff mistakes.

...and say what? "We couldn't fix the problems the last 4 years and we're not going to do anything until after the election but...give us another chance!" They still don't get it.

If the Chargers win today, they are the 5th seed and Pitt is 6th seed. Denver/Miami/Cincy are locked into the 7th seed. Broncos win and they're in. If they lose and Miami wins, Miami is in. If they both lose, the Bengals are in.

The dude who was decapitated by a helicopter blade on the set of "Twilight Zone: The Movie"?

Burrow has some serious weapons on offense in Chase, Higgins and Gesicki, and even Iosivas and Chase Brown. But if his defense hadn't let him down and the refs didn't screw them against the Chefs, they'd be in the playoffs.

That's about $8M/year. I think it will have to be about $10M/year, which would put him just outside the top 5.

No need. That will be Grable's position.

I've been following Polymarket since my son mentioned it to me a couple weeks ago. Josh was then and is still hovering at around 78% It's a turnover. If INTs are bad, so too should be fumbles. And arguably fumbles are worse since they happen more up-field than INTs. I was going to say this. If last night showed anything, it's than Henry is a huge weapon on that offense and takes the luster off Lamar's performance this year.

Consistency would be nice. Who won the turnover battle?

Even if true, better than no thoughts at all...

The Cheaters cheated? That's breaking news...
