Relocation is about the only thing that would do it. I'm too old to start over with a new team. And I ain't going back to the Jets.

One of them is going to lose. That's enough for me.

Average would be a refreshing change.

Tom Brady (45), Tampa Bay Buccaneers: $15 million – UFA Baker Mayfield (27), Los Angeles Rams: $8.1 million – UFA Sam Darnold (25), Carolina Panthers: $7.5 million – UFA Jimmy Garoppolo (31), San Francisco 49ers: $7 million – UFA Teddy Bridgewater (30), Miami Dolphins: $6.5 million – UFA Daniel Jones (25), New York Giants: $6.4 million – UFA Case Keenum (34), Buffalo Bills: $6 million – UFA Mason Rudolph (27), Pittsburgh Steelers: $5.08 million – UFA Jacoby Brissett (30), Cleveland Browns: $4.6 million – UFA Geno Smith (32), Seattle Seahawks: $3.5 million – UFA Joe Flacco (37), New York Jets: $3.5 million – UFA Andy Dalton (35), New Orleans Saints: $3 million – UFA Mike White (27), New York Jets: $2.5 million – UFA C.J. Beathard (29), Jacksonville Jaguars: $2.5 million – UFA Kyle Allen (26), Houston Texans: $2.5 million – UFA Taylor Heinicke (29), Washington Commanders: $2.3 million – UFA Lamar Jackson (25), Baltimore Ravens: $2.3 million – UFA Blaine Gabbert (33), Tampa Bay Buccaneers: $2.2 million – UFA Chase Daniel (36), Los Angeles Chargers: $2 million – UFA Chad Henne (37), Kansas City Chiefs: $2 million – UFA Nick Mullens (27), Minnesota Vikings: $2 million – UFA Drew Lock (26), Seattle Seahawks: $1.7 million – UFA Brandon Allen (30), Cincinnati Bengals: $1.5 million – UFA Josh Johnson (36), San Francisco 49ers: $1.1 million – UFA Nate Sudfeld (29), Detroit Lions: $1.03 million – UFA Nathan Peterman (28), Chicago Bears: $1.03 million – UFA Cooper Rush (29), Dallas Cowboys: $977,500 – UFA Brett Rypien (26), Denver Broncos: $965,000 – UFA Trace McSorley (27), Arizona Cardinals: $850,000 – UFA Jarrett Stidham (26), Las Vegas Raiders: $788,423 – UFA Bryce Perkins (25), Los Angeles Rams: $742,500 – ERFA Easton Stick (27), Los Angeles Chargers: $699,391 – UFA Gardner Minshew (26), Philadelphia Eagles: $677,721 – UFA

If seven wins make them happy, they're pulling for the right team. 2022: 7-10 2018: 7-9 2014: 7-8-1 2012: 7-9 2007: 7-9 2004: 7-9 2002: 7-9 2000: 7-9 1997: 7-9 1995: 7-9

Yeah, I'm not buying the "Taylor told Rivera to start Howell" narrative. Rivera initially announced Heinicke as the starter, and the DC media and fans lost their minds over it. So he backtracked.

It's the reality in SC.

2015 was much worse than 2003. In 2003, we didn't realize how hard it would be to make it back. These days I just watch Red Zone on Sundays. Much better for my mental health. Besides, the older I get, the less important this all seems.

Depending on the next couple of games, I could be good with Darnold on a short, cheap deal, and seeing what we've got in Corral. Sam's ceiling is Ryan Tannehill.

We are currently at the "We get recognized" part of the cycle:

I'll keep watching because I have no access to the Red Zone Channel.

I'm picking 2nd in my league, and hoping that guy picking first passes on JT. If not, I'll be looking at CMC again, after owning him in last year's disastrous season.

I had the #1 pick last year, and took CMC. Never again.

Like everyone, I'm down on the Panthers right now. But they've played for championships, and I could envision them winning a SB someday. The Hornets? It just feels like it's never gonna happen.

You realize the difference between beat reporters and fan bloggers, right?

Considering the current job market for newspaper writers, I'd guess that the line was pretty long.

If there's anything this team has prepared me for, it's enduring miserable seasons. There's always the Red Zone Channel.
