  1. Last year we were watching these passes intercepted. Now that they are connecting people are blinding themselves and calling it a pick. Tells you all you need to know.
  2. Yep, its pretty lame but there for anyone that wants to see. I did notice that that BY Bomb to Chark is making the rounds and people really just have nothing but disrespect as their primary motivation. Its a video of a 50 yard completion and people are saying its a pick... its crazy poo.
  3. 100% incorrect. DirecTV still has rights to NFL Sunday Ticket for bars and restuarants: https://www.cnbc.com/2023/05/25/directv-nfl-sunday-ticket-bars-restaurants.html
  4. The hold up has been the payment date of the fully guaranteed, all these have been trending to lumpsum payment of signing bonus instead of dragging out signing bonus payments for a year or longer. Someone like Tepper probably figured he could make more money on the interest of that ~$24 Mill waiting until the last moment to sign rather than doing it earlier in the year.
  5. Yeah, if ive learned anything its that the rich people that got rich enough to buy a team are often the pettiest people in the world. Doesn't matter that they can lift a pinky and transfer $50mil to you tomorrow, its that they know they dont have to do that and instead make you wait. Its all just a power play, pride, and ego from some of the most vein class of people to ever exist on the face of the planet.
  6. Which is crazy that the season totals for Miles Sanders in Vegas are all extremely low.
  7. They know a lot about the panthers but also Evero and Reich. Surprised to learn that Reich loves running it up the middle and we were top 10 for running it up the middle so I would be surprised to see our run game take a step back which was my main concern moving off of Steve Wilks.
  8. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/agents-take-the-holdup-in-signing-top-2023-draft-picks-and-sticking-points-for-bryce-young-others-unsigned/ This article pretty much has all the info of the inner workings and whats going on. Basically teams have leverage on WHEN the signing bonus is paid and for a lot of players they pay in 2 to 4 installments, unless strickly negotiated to force the team to pay them a lump sum all at once. This is the only hang-up. Most QB's drafted first (except Kyler) get a lumpsum of their signing bonus deposited into their account within 15 days of signature of the contract. Teams want to break it up over a year in 4 installments usually. Bryce will get his lumpsum just like Trevor Lawrence, Sam Darnold, and Trevon Walker (some of the most recent players to get lump sums)
  9. Yep, rating is mostly determined by QB and the rest of the team is adjusted accordingly LOL Aaron Rodgers? Great lets bump everyone else to compensate. Same for Bengal and Bills.
  10. You're right, whats funny is that aside from Interceptions Burns sacks and pressures are almost identical to Julius Peppers first 4 years (burns has played less games as well) and Burns didn't have Steve Smith, Mushin Mahammud, Jake Delhomme, and Stephen Davis on the other side of the ball, this fanbase is something else.
  11. Oh man this forum is just f-150 town isnt it? You have Nfc execs saying Burns is just as good as Bosa but plays for a poo team with no help aside from Derrick Brown and no offense to help him getting into obvious passing situations and thats not enough for these people. for what its worth, Bosa had identical stats to Burns when he played tampa, difference being that Bosa had a much better game script than Burns and still produced the exact same Oh well alls well that ends well. At least the FO understands value and knows that Matt fuging Rhule is the last person to use to evaluate a premium player.
  12. Expecting to hit on another edge rusher better than burns with two picks is idiotic.
  13. Itll be signed a couple hours before, why even devote brain power to this?
  14. If you take less than the equivalent of 4 first round picks you're a moron. Thats how much a top 10 edge rusher is worth because the hit rate is 25% in the first round...
  15. Dude shitted on so many parts of the team (rightfully) and but concedes how much better we are than the rest of the division, this might be a poo show this year lmao.
  16. Whats crazy is that fat fug was like the most loved teacher when his fat ass started his career in high school teaching. https://www.nj.com/giants/2019/12/if-not-for-dave-gettleman-id-be-dead-or-in-jail-stories-about-giants-gms-past-as-drivers-ed-teacher-football-coach.html
  17. Depends on your qb, only works for about 6 to 8 qb in the league. If you qb isn't top end elite you still have to rely on the run game to get into 3rd and manageable situations. Imagine Bryce playing on 3rd and 3 and 3rd and 2 all the way down the field (sounds great doesnt it?) now imagine it being 3rd and 10 a few times down the field after some unfortunate throws.
  18. Bosa was ranked #1. I always try to remind folks, Brian Burns has never had a consistent offense to play off of in his entire career, save the end of last year where he thrived. There is a reason he is worth 2 #1 picks plus more, a lot of you can't see it because our schemes have sucked, he has had no compliment on the other end, and we rarely played with a big lead for him to exploit.
  19. I thought Cam already came out and said Bryce was better than him in that video he listed QBs better than him he would back up.
  20. I thought early on I saw, (or just assumed), that the draft this year was on a Friday, April 28th. It has been on friday for a few years. Now I'm seeing this. Can someone confirm the actual date?
  21. I loved McCown saying "They're professional WRs, make them prove it" or something to that effect, basically meaning force the throw away from trouble
