Only women, out of fear. They seem to mostly get over it. I am more Red Bull than Coke can so I couldn’t tell you. 12oz is 12oz though, I always thought.

And I think Carson Palmer had about his best year as a pro that season. We got lucky there. That isn’t saying we couldn’t beat him. It was just much better not to have to beat him.

Cam, lol. I regret that I will likely not be alive by the time he gets to be old and gray. He will be funny as hell.

Great. Understated but right on time.

And they didn’t want to drop AT. They thought they could add to him. But the pressure was on for weapons.

was is right.

Making the playoffs gives that faction all the justification they need. No matter what it looked like doing it. They can say “playoffs”. For all I know, he might show out.

Let it out, you will feel better. I don’t have that passion for poo like that. Only shitty QBs. But if I tell you again why they took him over McConkey, people will again deny it. You might. It was always “mental gymnastics to defend Morgan” so I could just skip that and go directly jabbing needles into my eyes. It was Bryce related and specifically Bryce and AT related and instant results related. It was not done with any kind of long term planning in mind. That’s courtesy of the owner IMDAO.

Not curious myself. I get the impression they are like the people who fled this place because someone said something mean about their Brycie

I see it all too. What put some people in the mode was they wanted McConkey. They have wanted XL to fail and just had it in for him. I see what he does and those people were right but people have been dogging him mercilessly since he dropped that ball vs Philly I guess it was. The Bryce stans really hated him for that. I stopped defending him this year because I can see too. I am just slower to condemn. Normally. To me, a miss on him is small potatoes where we took him. I mean it isn’t good but it isn’t setting the franchise back 5 years or anything. I am pretty good about accepting some misses. And we got Coker in that same season. Part of the rookie class. Wash, more or less. You can quibble that Coker is a 2nd or 3rd value and doesn’t make up for it if you want. You want to get on my bad side, start trading future 1st round picks. That is what sets me off.

Yeah I am usually really amused when I look over there. Sometimes face palm amused. If I see something that I just can’t tolerate I will drop a little something and not stick around for the fallout. I just don’t know what to say about some of it. But I am jaded. Been watching a long time. Not easily bullshitted.

I remember a couple of times where Cam actually overthrew Ginn way down the field. Not sure he thought he could do it.

Tell me something I don’t know. I said right there in what you quoted I wasn’t optimistic. I said I could still be hopeful. Which ain’t the same but will have to do. I have optimism regarding more compartmentalization aspects of the team. Some players. The good draft we had is cause for optimism. Maybe that Tepper is actually being less harmful. Maybe. I had some for Canales but his meter is about 50% right now with me. Etc

I understand it. I shouldn’t have used that term. What I meant was we spent already and I am not sure he is as bad as a lot of people portray him to be, in spite of the obviously stupid poo that he has done. Of maybe a half dozen I could remember. I don’t mean a simple drop where he did everything right but catch it. Stuff like not getting the feet down. Couple of his penalties. Lollygagging. We have invested in him, yes. He has had some good days. Not enough. Sunk? Not to me. Is he taking on water? Yes he is. But I am willing to give him a chance to respond to this and pencil him into the plans for next year in a reduced or modified role.

A burner on a go route would outrun his ball unless he threw it right away.

I remember the first time he played vs the Panthers. When I saw him I knew we were still winning the game but thought in a couple of years he will be a problem. Just so quick on his feet and the arm… you won’t need to worry about Hail Mary throws.

There are a few guys on that list that are interesting to me, half have the makes bonehead plays but really talented downside. I don’t know why because I am not a fan but when I saw Murray I had a good feeling. If he didn’t have the no film watching rep he has I’d say bring him in. Play backyard ball for a year or two. He can sling it and can get away from people a lot better than what we have. There are a few others we’ll have plenty of time coming up to consider them.

I can’t stand waffling. Trust your judgement and stick to your conviction. You get to change your mind one time with me lol. Flip or flop. We have guys in here that have been on off on off and back on. And posted hard about both viewpoints.

. Sunk cost fallacy is holding onto assets in the hope of recovering a return, rather than taking your losses and reinvesting them into something that may pay off. This is the exact opposite of sunk cost fallacy by keeping a failed asset.him be a second stringer for a year. ———— You he think he is a fallacy. You aren’t alone. I am a minority probably. I could say it differently. We have something invested in him, unless he is a locker room issue or bad teammate I am not calling him completely sunk. I would let him be a backup and let it play out some more and just see where everything goes. He has had good days and Dalton played he seems to be able to make it work, I just wouldn’t make that move right now. Demoted is fine, no argument.

You didn’t give up a ring though.

Need help with the date there but it is almost there. That is what I am expecting. Hoping not and know we could be wrong. Still if I am honest…. They will need to play well or things could really go south in the stadium after the anticipation and pregame with the stars jacks everyone up as high as I think it will.

So if it comes down to that, and it played out, we could be looking at a post June 1 designation for his 5th year money at best. Assuming it is guaranteed which I don’t know. 13.25 mil cap hit in 2027 and 2028. I have to admit I never really went into the angles after picking up the option. I have always been don’t do it. So, you pay him the 12 mil for year 4 and if you want out when they go into extension lobbying you trade or cut. Is that conceivable? The thing about trading is, I believe all the guaranteed money hits your cap right then. That’s 26.5 million if correct. So if they picked up the 5th, this would cover the ‘we want out’ expenses from our end, after year 4. Correct?

I might need a co-writer.

I mean, Lamar is coachless. That would be crazy the teams just swapped. I think McDaniels says some strange poo for a football coach. Being an assistent behind the scenes might be his happy place. I guess if I were making any decisions I would talk to people that played for him and see what it was like for them.

His arm isn’t gonna magically get better either and fixing his footwork seems to be a non issue for him, so all I reasonably see is more of the same. I mean he has shown that with the proper form he can throw .. okay, NFL speaking. Much better than when doesn’t use it. But he doesn’t seem to focus on it. What significant strides do the people saying this expect to see? This year for me was about raising his floor and he has nowhere near done that. He has improved on his ceiling somewhat. But I think he is bumping up against that.
