AB released. Which team will be dumb enough to sign him?

Not all of this was by design, of course. I think we all kind of had this gut feeling New England would lurk in the weeds and wait for something catastrophic to happen. Maximum value. Risk? What risk? They don’t care at this point. If he sucks, or acts like crap, they’ll cut him and still go 12-4. If he has a great year, they’re the 2007 Pats again. It’s a brilliant move, it triggers Pittsburgh, it also allows BB to gain more insight on Pittsburgh’s operation.

Until proven otherwise the AFC East is still the AFC East. The Bills, Jets, and Dolphins have done absolutely jackshit for the past decade plus. The Patriots will coast to the playoffs like they always do, AB or no AB.

As for the Panthers, well, I think this will be an interesting conversation to revisit in a mere few months depending on our record in the fall.

fans think players should be "loyal" and hope for "hometown discounts" but when a player prioritizes his own happiness he's suddenly the biggest idiot in the world for maybe leaving some money on the table.

Gonna be interesting to see how a lot of folks react to CMC holding out and demanding a record setting contract due to his unique role in our offense (esp if he makes 2k yards a year a regular occurrence), i already see people making these distinctions between him and other RBs bc he's somehow different. Yeah, the guy who sat out his bowl game to prevent injury, starting a trend, is totally gonna be interested in taking less money. 

(I'm not kidding myself, he's gonna get a pass either way)

We surely have enough to win our division, no need for AB. It might be interesting to revisit depending on our WR performance

    • I'm super excited about the guys we're getting back, and fortunately this year, outside of Robert Hunt, we haven't had any season-threatening injuries. Rico has earned the start, but I am excited to have both available.  The team is finally turning into the run-first team Canales said he wanted to be. As for JT Sanders, I think he has lost the most be being out. He is probably our best receiving TE, but with the emergence of Mitchell Evans & with him and Tommy Tremble both absolutely balling in run blocking, it will be hard to fix something that isn't broken. I'm hoping Turk Wharton can help with our pass rush. We really havent gotten to see him much due to injuries, but we desperately need anyone to provide some pass rush juice, which is what he was brought to do. I'm the most excited about Jalen Coker returning. Theilen may have been the most clutch last year, but I've watched a lot of film, and Coker was the most consistent WR we had when he was out there last year.  I think he can be an ideal #2 to Tmac. While Coker doesn't have the raw athleticism XL does, his route running, savvy, and overall football IQ simply make him better.  I think with the fact Coker can play both outside and in the slot will give our pass game more versatility.  We have been running a lot of 2 TE sets, and I think Tmac & Coker should be the primary WRs for 12 personnel. The other WRs (XL, Tremayne, Renfrow, & Horn) all have roles, but I dont think any of them can fully replace what Coker can do. I do think Renfrow will be inactive this week if everyone is healthy bc of how valuable Tremayne is for ST and as a run blocker. So happy that we are playing meaningful football heading into November. We are still almost certainly a year away, but we are absolutely moving in the right direction
