So he's anticipating the civil cases looking bad and getting a suspension. He better throw Case Keenum some extra cash on the side for covering his ass for multiple games

Even if there is nothing but settlements with no disclosure of anything, he got 22 cases pending. Ben got 4 games for 2 cases and Jameis got 3 games for “groping” an Uber driver. If he only get 8 games he’s lucky.

I said it was going to be the Panthers or the Browns before espn said the browns were out. I said multiple times that the saints and Falcons weren’t in a position to make the trade to which I was correct. He wanted to go to the Falcons of the Saints but they couldn’t make it happen.
 

 

 

With all due respect to what you know, the Saints and Falcons both could have made it happen.  In fact, if you look at all the restructuring the Saints were/are doing they were doing it implicitly to land Watson.

The big hurdle for the Failcons was Matt Ryan, his contract, and bonus.  All of which could have been handled with a trade (excluding the bonus payment which Atlanta could have made), and some waiving and restructuring of some of their players.

To simply say the Saints and Falcons couldn't make it happen are just not correct.

In the end though, they couldn't make that extra $230 million happen.  DW is all about that $$$ because he's got some civil suits to settle.  😂🤣😂

I am. Ecstatic. But I’m not sure we are on the same page as to why? Why do you think I’m thrilled? 

Cleveland mortgaging their future on Watson with limited offensive options and the shackles they just placed on themselves to get better in the future.

I'm sure Watson doesn't care because he gets his money regardless.  El oh el.

You are correct. Good call. I explained it earlier almost exactly how you did. I know I mess with y’all some, but I never wanted him in CAR. Was hoping he would go to NO just so people that think the salary cap is a myth would see what was/and still is about to happen. But CLE is a great surprise. They had built a good team and just needed to settle the QB position with a solid option. And stay healthy. Now their fate is tied to someone I have no faith in being able to stay out of situations that will put him back in this position again. And he’s not over this one yet. He sits half a year and an entire season of all that talent disappears. The Steelers signed Mitch Trubisky and I’m still happy. So there is that.

That’s what puzzles me, they were out and he went back to them 

Because they were the only team willing and/or able to fork over a quarter billion dollars guaranteed. We wouldn’t even guarantee the last 2 years of his last deal. Browns we’re literally all in.

      Please DM, do not see Dalton failing as BY doing well enough for a big contract

      By Peon Awesome · Posted

      Sure if you just blindly look at stats, you can pinpoint a couple areas that look similar. But come on man that's lazy analysis. Instead of throwing lower percentage throws, Dalton held onto the ball unconscionably long, leading to several of those sacks including that unthinkable one at the end of the first half, inflating his completion percentage. Bryce for all his flaws, does a pretty good job of escaping pressure and scrambling for 5 yards or throwing it away. Dalton's pocket presence was just so incredibly bad today, which led to both of his lost fumbles. If Bryce would just hold onto the ball and get sacked every 3rd play instead of throw it away or try a contested pass, his completion percentage would be 15 points higher than Dalton's today. And Bryce only had more yardage in 3 of 7 games? You mean when we played run heavy schemes in our wins, instead of Dalton being forced to throw all game cause we're getting blown out?  Look anyone is more than justified in arguing Bryce Young doesn't have the tools to lead this team to a super bowl. But he has been head and shoulders better this year than what Dalton showed today. That was just an abysmal perfomance.

      It's really not a surprise is it?

      100% correct.    we also have a team that is completely incapable of responding to adversity. The first sign of trouble and the team just unravels. I think that says a lot about coaching more than anything. It can also be explained with the amount of youth we have playing key roles on offense and defense.

      Damning indictment of Bryce Young

      By Jon Snow · Posted

      He's not elevating anyone around him and will never be that kind of qb. He is what he is. He will always need a good team around him to play his best. His best is not a game changer but game manager. If you accept that then you will understand what the outlook is going forward.
