And we are very upset about it lol We are not known for our patience around here. They are OUR LBs and we want them NOW. (that JG Wentworth commercial lives rent free in my head.)

EA is absolutely terrible and I hate that it is the only choice for an NFL game. I heard a while back they were letting the license expire and that was changing because their head is so big they think they don't need it. I don't know why they have this attitude, but I would love a new edition of NFL2K or even Blitz.

I know it is a joke, but I will answer it anyway. Madden doesn't even consider that a real position. It hurts my heart to cut him every time I start a franchise because he is rated a 37 overall or something ridiculous.

Here is an article from Panthers Wire as well. https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/08/03/panthers-nfl-sign-krys-barnes-tuasivi-nomura/85500913007/

We signed Krys Barnes from Arizona. Someone tell me how to feel. PFF profile says not too great. https://www.pff.com/nfl/players/krys-barnes/42548

That's why I was trying to post to give context. Some people think good players should be 99. At the beginning of the year, you get what are called core elites. Being a 99 at the start of the year is quite the privilege, so Brown being so high is an honor. I believe he is top 3 for DTs this year.

I saw he was 1 out of 3, but didn't the article I saw didn't specify what goal posts they were using. I assumed they were still using the narrows. We talkin' about practice. AllenIverson.gif

Yeah, technically what it is called. At 80 overall, cards get a red border and are considered elites.

As a Madden player, for those who aren't 80 and above is seen as "elite". 70 and above are playable.

Is he actually even missing kicks? All I have heard is that he missing on the skinny posts, and that if it were regulation, he would have made it.

I don't understand what some of you are complaining about with not drafting a kicker. What kicker do you guys think we missed out on with only two selected in the draft? Fitz was like #2 or #3 in the rankings. Unless you think we missed on Borregales, which we would have had to use a 5th round pick to get, I don't see what the argument is here. We got our guy without using a draft pick. Give him a chance.

I said generally. We got Jimmy Horn with a 6th. Would you rather have drafted a kicker instead of getting Jimmy? Like I said, we still got one of the top kickers available. I don't know why so many are hating on the kid. Give him a chance. He has quite the resume. Dogging him before he even steps on the field? Butker is a little nutty from what I hear.

Generally you don't draft kickers. Only two were selected this year in the draft. We still got one of the top prospects available.

I know our offense was stalling, and that is not on Eddy, but I just feel you shouldn't be making decisions based on your lack of confidence in your kicker. If it is a situation you need a field goal, you shouldn't be hesitating to send your guy out. We were, and that is very telling. If you can't trust him there, is he really the guy you want when the game is on the line? That is not even getting into the attitude. I am ready to be done with Eddy.

I feel like hindsight is getting the best of you here. We were consistently complaining about Eddy's leg at that time. He's not worth paying top dollar. We have had a decent track record on picking kickers that are good enough. Automatic up to 40 is exactly the problem. He is good from less than 40, but that isn't a high bar.

Agreed. Rookie should get the nod.

There are a few reasons in my opinion. He had a bad attitude. Thought he was better than he was. Probably expected a big payday because of that. Had a weak leg that caused us to go for it in positions we wouldn't normally. When his accuracy was technically best in the NFL, his head blew up. A lot easier to be the most accurate when we are terrified to attempt anything past 50.

Article I read said he was missing on the skinny posts, but they all would have made it on regular. I wouldn't worry too much yet.

Ocho Cinco I believe was talking about him putting folks in a blender at camp. (we talkin about Renfrow if you didn't click it)

Thanks for the new wallpaper.

See? Like I said, no matter what I say, you are just going to discredit it. I guess I will just dip since y'all are so stuck in this mindset. Fun while it lasted. Y'all have fun.

Plenty of this is not from the podcast. I didn't even listen to the podcast. I told you, I have come up with all this on the fly since y'all act like this issue doesn't exist. Believe whatever you want to brother. You clearly have created this wild narrative about me.

I never said anything about the value of the trade. I said I was out for other reasons. I would not trade for Parsons.

Might have linked the wrong one brother. I ain't taking this as serious as you think I am. Here's another one I linked if you didn't see it. My only point is, this didn't come from nowhere. If this many people are saying there is a problem, there might be a problem. https://www.totalprosports.com/nfl/jane-slater-bombshell-report-cowboys-concerns-with-micah-parsons/

Here's another article stating they wanted to trade him years ago because of him rubbing teammates the wrong way. where does this all come from @TD alt? https://www.totalprosports.com/nfl/jane-slater-bombshell-report-cowboys-concerns-with-micah-parsons/
