Good for him! We're a couple of years away from being where the Bills are and his years are running out. He can be an asset there and hopefully get a ring before he retires. Best of luck to him, sure enjoyed watching him play here. We were blessed to have him.

Another new video. I'm the scriptwriter behind this one. Complex case that unfolded quickly.

At the most, a prove it contract would be advisable. Oft injured DBs often get contact shy and that can be an issue, actually leading to more injuries. Personally, I was impressed by how Horn came back last season and wasn't just great in coverage but became much, much more aggressive in tackling and run defense. He apparently learned that it is better to be the hammer than the nail.

Sometimes you've got to make do with what's in the cupboard. Improvements on D-line can go a long way to helping out those DBs and Safeties.

He needs help. He's needed help for a very long time. Instead, he gets football, big bucks, then MMA and little bucks, now just what his family has and a new arrest. He needs help and not the kind he has been getting.

There's something telling me Rodgers doesn't make it out of training camp healthy.

There's a reason they are dangling him as trade bait right now rather than installing him in preseason OTAs. Let the buyer beware. If he were a used car he'd have had mid mileage, but many owners.

If he keeps making it around the curve, I'll be happy. He gave us some reason to look forward to this coming season. He has a good chance to come roaring out of the blocks with the schedule we have ahead of us. If he gets something to build upon, who knows where we can go. It's too soon to hope for playoffs, but wouldn't it be nice?

McCaffrey was also such a huge part of the passing game here (and in SF) that it's easy to think he'd have a lot more rushing yards, just because of the impact he had on games (and sometimes he was it, all of it, the only guy doing anything it seemed). But good for Chuba! Here's to seeing him climb the list, at least past Cam. No slight on Cam and his historic career here, but if your franchise's third leading rusher of all time was a QB, you've had some issues.

Let's make it happen.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again... when your star player is a wide receiver, you've got problems. When it's a receiver with a reputation for being difficult to work with, it's even worse. Couldn't have happened to a better team. I'm still bitter about 2003.

If one of these guys with guaranteed money doesn't make the team and then goes to another team, does the guarantee still hold? Do we pay part of their salary at another team? Or does it work the opposite way and tell them hey, we paid your salary for the season, you can't go elsewhere and keep that guarantee? If so, doesn't that create basically a second practice squad of reserves to call up from?

So looking forward to this season.

I think that most NFL centers have run into that exact situation at some point in their careers, going back to high school. No one really wants to play center starting out.

I hope there's a good competition for starting center this season. Since we have a young QB who is still very much developing, this is a massively important role to get set in stone here. Good luck to Cade!

Yeah, this has been a need for some time now.

If we were going to change the culture, we needed just that kind of guy. Good thing we got him. Stars are great, but cement builds empires.

Go look at a larger window for each team. Losing leaves a major, major lingering stink. And Kansas City had a massively large losing streak between Len Dawson and Alex Smith. We're talking decades. Losing franchises often have issues that are sooo much deeper than just the draft that it would take a miracle pick like Peyton Manning or Elway or (I hate saying this) Brady to pull them out of their muck and mire they were lodged in. "Tanking" often just gives bad management, team building and coaching a pass for a season, maybe two. Just look to the Jaguars or Cardinals for examples. I'd say the Browns, but they built their own selves one of the most remarkable karma loops in NFL history with the Watson trade after a decade of tanking.

They did lose it to another great team, though. I think he's a good to really QB and he handles the system they give him very, very well. When he has his weapons on the field, the team is one of the best in the league. Without them, well, they still outperformed us. I think we'll see him and them in the playoffs regularly over the next five years, maybe another run for the trophy. If so, money well spent. If not, they're no worse off than say Dallas or Atlanta, Cleveland or New York (take your pick).

Because losing sticks to a franchise, it gets hard to shake it off. High draft picks don't always provide the soap that gets rid of the stinks. Win, win some more, win most of them, then win the big one. That's how good franchises progress.

Whew, you sure spent a lot of time explaining how a QB that you don't care much for sucks. You're into this way, way more than me. But I do have to say you've got a lot of teams listed there as not wanting him whose QBs have a fair amount of hype but a small amount of accomplishments.

We'll just have to see.

Hmm. I think he'll live up to it. Last year, about half of his team was on IR it seems, at one time or another. Year before, Super Bowl appearance. Year before that, playoff run after being third on the depth chart and being pressed into service. Is he one of the greatest in the game right now? Nope. No chance of that. Is he in the top 10 going into next season? Pretty good chance of that. Would 20 or more teams in this league love to have the guy as their starting QB. Most likely so. He's a good QB who can implement his coach's game plan to a T and has both the confidence of and confidence in his teammates. That'll take you a long way in this league if you've got the right cast around you, and he does.

I think they already have it right. A few years back, they added in an additional wild card spot and that opened the landscape quite a bit. Keep it how it is now, make it so that divisions still matter. Or come up with a secondary league and start relegations for continually losing franchises.
