I don't like Hurney coming back, but I don't think cutting our third string qb who is mostly on special teams, or a 38 year old punter is going to set us back for 10 years.  So far, Hurney has mostly done what he should.  

Oh, he's just getting started . . .

You sir, are a sound voice of reason.  Cheers.

Choosing the worst punter in the league last season as our starter and cutting our pro bowler punter instead.

Our pro bowl punter?  Lee has never made a pro bowl for us.  He played half a season and couldn't stay healthy playing a non contact position.  You act like Lee has been here 5 years and made the pro bowl every year for this team.  He's old.  And showed last year he is injury prone.

it's a damn vent thread; fug off if you're not angry like the rest of us

When you start a topic with such an accusation, all I want to know is what has been done at this moment to support your feelings.  That's called logic.  And your response is to tell me to fug off rather than offer your opinion.  Ahhh...makes sense.

    • He’s set financially for life barring complete fiscal lunacy. He has $12.3 million guaranteed. Think about that. Twelve million three hundred thousand dollars, he’ll be 28 years old when his contract is up and he’s completely forgotten about if he never plays another down in the NFL if he so chooses. Say after taxes he ‘only’ brings home $6M (fire your accountant territory) and parks $4M in a run of the mill mutual fund… good God… What I’m getting at, IF homie ain’t feeling the NFL, he has 12,300,000 reasons to take the fewest NFL edition ass kickings as possible while waiting out his very wealthy non-football future.  Obviously completely talking out of my a$$ with this… but if you hated contact, didn’t want to live with a completely wrecked body for the rest of your life and you know you’re set financially… what path would you take, assuming you’re cool with being a quitter (not calling him a quitter, I’m just playing out a scenario)? Why do so many first rounders bust? Where was he before his one year wonder if he was such a stud?  Everybody likes the dude on a personal level. How could you not? …. but I like seeing a winning product even more. He doesn’t play like his head is in the game. The Why is where the speculation lies and helps to clarify if his issues are ‘fixable’ or not. 
    • Fantasy tiers? Who gives a fug
    • Very likely that he needs another season or two to really find his groove.  It very well may not be here where he has his best season. He’s a physical standout, but he can’t seem to get his focus and mentality right. That non-catch where he didn’t get his second foot in bounds was a truly awful display of this. Every professional in this game makes that catch.  Last week, it was clear that he wasn’t playing in top gear.  Like so many young people these days, he wants success without working hard.  He wants maximum reward for minimum effort. He wants to rest on talent. But talent alone won’t cut it.  The foolishness of youth and inexperience.  He can have it all if he wants it.  Seems like he’s content to be a social media star and a forgettable football player.
