Good for Bills. Carr is a good player that would improve any team that does not have a qb like the jets or pats. 

He would have improved yhe Jets. However, Carr isn't a QB that I think the Bills fear. 

 

Carr isn't elite. He's a decent QB.

Saleh keeping the receipts of the QBs who won’t play for him…

 

He also said he would see us again in the playoffs. Kind of wish he did. I would rather have the Bills face the Jets then the Bengals now knowing the outcome of that horrible game.

Jets weren't making the Divisional game.  May as well have wished for the Colts.

The Saints are always in “cap hell”, yet they always seem to sign whoever they want.

 

 

It's not "whoever they want." We never hear about all the folks they'd like to sign but can't or couldn't.

Exactly. Cap is “real” in the same way Santa is real.

 

kids/ casual fans think it’s real, you see him in movies and at the mall, but GM’s (parents) know the truth. 
 

Spend a little cash over the cap to buy nice presents for your kids in full, if it’s “too expensive” maybe you throw it on a credit card to pay it down (extensions). 
 

All while knowing 100% that your income (salary cap, tv deals) are all going up in the future. 
 

ALWAYS a way to make any deal they want happen. 

 

 

The cap is real the way the guy in the Santa suit at the mall is real. Very. That guy might be flexible, as the cap is. But he exists and affects the world.

 

The instant your team gives a dollar to a player, that dollar will hit the cap. No way to prevent it. You can delay it. And when you do you will have less money to spend on other things down the road. 

 

"ALWAYS" is absolute nonsense. The correct way to say that would be "sometimes."

 

If your income goes up but you've already spent the extra, the raise just doesn't mean much to what you can buy. 

 

Yup, the credit card is an excellent analogy. Just as you can spend too much on your credit card and get yourself in trouble, teams can do the same with the cap. Doing it limits their options.
