Too much.

That in conjunction that we gave him security a year too long. I didn't mind the money as much as what amounted to a two-year (as opposed to the standard one-year) prove-it deal. It's like, "Who came up with that sh¡t?" Somebody (or bodies) creatively reinvented the damn wheel for no good reason...Only because Teddy wanted them to? fug that! He just would o' been a Bear!

Who envisioned Trubisky getting a big deal?

I was definitely one of them and I’m here for the whoopin. I was certain he would sign for more than 5mil per and thought it would be more in the 8+ mil range. I was wrong. 
 

I put the Bills in the top 3 of strangest landing spots for Trubisky. Not sure the play here. He either doesn’t want the pressure of starting again or is angling for a bigger deal with more cap available next year. Like the Saints, I’m kicking the can down the road on my prediction of what deal he signs. Ha

He goes to a good team, with not a lot of pressure.  He gets to watch and learn from another young qb, and Buffalo has decent offensive talent, so if he does play due to injury, he doesn't have to carry the team.  And he gets paid well to do it.  And he might even have a shot at a ring.  Very good scenario for him.

    • I mean, at the time that wouldn't have worked for them. The truth is that when they had the biggest advantage in that conversation was also when Notre Dame was at their peak arrogance and revenue stream creation(prior to the Longhorns Network, etc). Notre Dame was just never going to work out. The biggest thing they could have done is go hard AF and try to give insane deals to the premier Big 12 teams. Even then, most of them were eyeing the Big Ten and SEC. The biggest issue with the ACC was betting wrong. Miami and Virginia Tech ended up being disasters. Basically former college football powerhouses that ended up being afterthoughts by the time they arrived. I mean Miami specifically have literally had a total of three double digit win seasons since they joined the ACC in 2004 and two of those are in the past 2 seasons. Virginia Tech just fell apart at the wrong time, although I think Franklin will bring them back to prominence to an extent. Had we had it to do in hindsight, probably taking teams like TCU, Baylor, etc would have been wiser options than some of the moves into the Northeast and getting Miami.   But, ultimately, fug all this nonsense. It's the insane greed of college football that killed regional rivalries, college basketball and entire storied, REGIONAL conferences. That is the real blame. The thirst for the destruction of all college sports which sits squarely at the feet of the slobbering, ignorant rednecks and hillbillies at the top of the college football sphere.
