Yeah but at least they came away with actual hardware. We didn't.

I was trying to avoid that subtle difference!  The fact that they were a yard and a dumb offensive play call away from turning their loss to a win, and we were a few of turnovers and a missed field goal away was bad enough.

Not going to read through this thread so sorry if this has been posted.  Just heard on Sirius that Wilson wants a say in personnel matters.  My guess is that he is interested  particularly  in the Oline.

I can understand making suggestions like "we need a better O-line", but I don't care who the player is. There's no way in hell I'd give them a say in the roster.

From the interview he did today, it sounds like he wants just that.

I bet it ends up happening.

It’s not unheard of for players to have roster input. 

Reid said Mahomes had a big say in the  Chiefs 1st round pick last year.

Jay Cutler was involved in head coach interviews.

I know Cam had a hand in recruiting some FA signings.

The precedent is there. Wilson just wants to take it another step.

Depends on what "say" entails for me. QB advocating for a free agent is fine but not suggesting cuts or playing GM.

      I think Indiana will win it all but Miami should give them a much better fight than Oregon did.

      If you need some ‘chills’ to start your Friday….

      When I tell people I was at that game, they usually say oh that’s so cool you had the experience. I call it soul crushing. Why? The weeks and months leading up to it were great, the team was fun to watch every week…some weeks the offense was unstoppable and carried the team (saints and giants road games), other times the defense carried the load (jaguars, tampa). Lots of back and forth games against good teams (Seattle and Indy). Good young players on the team, but the veteran leadership was incredible…from Cam, Olsen, Kalil and J Stew to Luke, TD, Norman, Tillman, Jared Allen, CJ. Role players like Fozzy Whitaker, Cotchery (he caught that MFer), Philly brown, Kyle love, AJ Klein, and so on.  The Friday before the nfc championship my wife and I after a few drinks said let’s see what prices look like for flights/accommodations and we got to talking about how much prices would increase if we waited until we found out if we would be in the big game. We said screw it, we are only out $200 if we have to cancel.  Of course we come out and just pulverized the cardinals in front of the most raucous crowd by far we’ve ever had. We had no idea what we would do for game tickets and then found out a neighbor who worked for the team could get us 2 for face value (each employee got two of their own for free, something cool that JR did).  But then the NFL mafia decided that the storyline of manning going out on top like Elway would give them more goodwill than a non traditional QB who didn’t connect with their target demo and the rest is history. I never have and never will watch that game again. I am just hoping I can see them win one in the 2nd half of my life.
