  1. There have been plenty of great rebuilds in sports. In football they usually come with drafting the right QB.
  2. This doesn't need to happen. $44 million for 2 WRs is too much to pay. Diggs was a #1 WR when he got here. Judging from Pro Bowl appearances is pretty lame.
  3. Anyone who wants to know the context should go to the 7:10 point in this attachment. https://www.google.com/search?q=Xach+wilson+on+2023+QBs+on+Jets+video&oq=Xach+wilson+on+2023+QBs+on+Jets+video&aqs=chrome..69i57j33i10i160l2.28164j0j15&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:50dbdcde,vid:cS79eO_iDa8
  4. If the Jets trade him, they take an $11 million cap hit. Also I doubt the team that trades for him wants the risk of having to pay his 2024 guarantees (over $5 million) without just compensation from the Jets. My guess is the only way he's traded is if the Jets agree to pay his 2023 roster bonus & then agree to send the team that trades for him a 2nd or 3rd round pick, similar to when Houston traded Osweiler to Cleveland.
  5. I think he'll get another year before any decision to cut or keep is made. When someone posted the Josh Allen comparison, I looked up his size & couldn't stop laughing. Then I posted in the thread: more like the next Bo Levi Mitchell, the CFL QB that some people wanted the Bills to sign before Josh was drafted.
  6. I've only bet against the Bills once-I knew the Bills would be resting their starters in the 2019 season finale against the Jets and bet the Jets on the money line in a game the Bills were favored.
  7. When I saw this, I thought it was a joke, mocking Wilson. Then I searched it & found out he actually said this. What's he going to do, shoot spitballs at the veteran when he starts to throw the ball? If Wilson doesn't fix his attitude, pronto, the Jets are going to sign IK Enemkpali to knock some sense into him.
  8. So, when are they going to interview Kevin Murray, Kyler's dad?
  9. Th O-line needs some serious upgrading. The reason Josh has to improvise so much is he is facing a pass rush way too often.
  10. The current odds on the money line (team wins with no points needed) is Dolphins +425. So if someone bets $20 they get back $105.
  11. The guys in their mid 20s on rookie deals -Burrow, Herbert and Lawrence will get paid. Jackson & Tua are question marks due to injuries the past 2 years. If the greatest ability is availability, if I was running a team & someone else wanted to pay either one of these guys, I'd say sayonara. Rodgers 39, Wilson 34, Stafford 34 have a ton of mileage on them. Wilson & Stafford were traded by teams who didn't want to give a high mileage QB another extension and fleeced a trade partner, although in Stafford's case the Rams got a Super Bowl win, but they're starting to look like the last Raiders Super Bowl team that lost to Tampa and fell off the face of the earth. Murray is a unique case of a guy who didn't approach anything near elite, but had the team over a barrel because he was refusing to play without a new contract & could threaten to quit football & go play baseball. He used his status as a #1 overall pick to strongarm the Cards, which based on how bad the Cards were this year, they should have called his bluff, and planned to get a new QB in this year's draft. Instead they have a QB rehabbing his injury with insane dead cap #s the next 2 years. Putting his off field stuff aside, who knows what Watson will be with the rust off. He missed over a season & a half. It's too early for Cleveland to know what they got in the trade for Watson.
  12. They will be looking for a new GM too. There's an experienced GM out there with the initials D.W.
  13. GM Steve Keim is out too. "Stepping Down" to concentrate on his health.
  14. Good Josh Allen impersonation on that TD.
  15. I booked a flight to Phoenix-I can cancel & get a credit I'll use later in the year. A rental car I can cancel for late Friday-Tuesday morning and a motel I can cancel in Casa Grande Arizona, an hour +/- away. I still will have to buy my ticket to the game & find parking in Glendale. Right now the total costs for those 3 items if they make it before parking & ticket is $2,563. I believe the costs will be a lot higher if I wait until after the AFC Championship game. I figure around $6,000 for the ticket & a couple of hundred for parking or park & ride. So around $8,700 grand total, of which $4,900 will be covered by my futures bet to win the AFC which cost $950. So my total out of pocket costs will be around $4,800. If they don't win the AFC my future bet goes down the drain and I don't have any costs since everything is either refundable or in the case of the flight a credit for a future flight. Edit: I had to cancel my original motel because the reviews were horrific. I'm paying an additional $783 for the room and edited above.
  16. It's so the interviewer can't be told "Don't let him out of the building."
  17. Dov Kleiman is wrong. Payton is allowed to talk with other teams with NO's permission. He is not allowed to talk IN PERSON with any team until 1/17.
  18. There was no bus, it was a home game. They used their remote starters on their cars the second they kicked off. When you move a team to a city that never had a team before, how can you seriously expect to have built a loyal fan base after 3 years?
  19. Usually from the goalpost with ropes early in camp.
  20. Lawrence looked a lot like 2nd year Josh tonight.
  21. I'm rooting for Baltimore since I want no chance to hear that the Bengals could have passed us in the seeding. They were in the playoffs anyway. All the missed game did was diminish each team's chance at a higher seed. If the Bengals & Bills got seeded lower than their potential seeding & either won the Super Bowl, the asterisk is totally illogical.
  22. I hope someone has a way for Damar to watch the Bills game on Sunday. The TV in the hospital will be showing the Bengals game based on the 506 maps.
  23. Detroit is already out, they're tearing up the turf this month & replacing it.
  24. English translation: Wilson's contract is not tradeable and Woody Johnson has too close a relationship with his money to pay a guy to be on another team's roster. Plus he likes looking at the hot Mrs. Wilson at games.
