The most intriguing match up today might be the Raiders vs. Chargers. The winner goes to the playoffs. The loser goes home.

 

Yeah would like to see the Chargers pull through. I wasn’t a huge advocate of getting Herbert but nice to see him play well.

Also curious to see if the Saints will clinch. Obviously would rather see the 49ers but even in a down year with Payton playing guys like freaking Winston and Hill somehow getting in would be something.

The game matchup isn’t interesting itself but want to see if the Bills clinch their division for another year. Kind of the team I’m pulling for in the playoffs again. Just seeing what McDermott brought to the Bills, 4 playoff seasons out of 5 and possibly back to back division titles is great. Before him the Bills last saw the playoffs in 1999 lol.

I wanted us to boot Rivera and make him HC but we just had to keep Rivera. It was no surprise that Rivera’s defense went downhill to the point of being nearly dead last (Currently has the WFT near the bottom as well) while Mcdermott went to the Bills and made them near the top. Yay for us getting to experience crappy years with Rivera and now having to experience the Rhule era because of it.

Herbert terrified me as a prospect because of how terrified Oregon's coaches were to take the leash off of him. In hindsight, that was 100% on the coaches and was likely discovered by NFL teams during the interview process. The game tape showed the physical talent was absolutely there.

I don't mind you making a other games thread, you going around telling people you aren't watching the Panthers,while being a MOD is stupid.

Stop.  I quit watching Panthers games few weeks back and I have never done that in over 20 years following Panthers.  I refuse to buy poo product.  If you ok buying poo product, that’s on you and your opinion but not everyone follows blindly.

Believe it or not, if the Saints get in it's going to be on their defense.  They currently have the #4 scoring defense in the league.  Their failures this year are 100% on the offensive side of the ball.  If they had a typical Saints offense this year, they'd probably be favorites to win it all.

This. Complacency doesn't make a "good fan" or a "real fan". It makes a sucker. The Panthers may have never established consistent success but we used to have sporadic success. Then along came David Tepper...

Yep. The Saints are probably going to be right back in the mix as a contender next year after addressing QB. Unlike us, they're an ideal destination for a good veteran QB.

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
