Yeah probably. I've done a lot of that myself, especially in my freelance ghostwriter days. But I'd always go back, reread, reproof, and edit. You write for a living. Do it right.

Yeah I agree. But in a Q&A, he probably lets the hair down a little (pun unintended).

As far as the actual content....I can see all that. Sammy has a couple buds on the team that will give him the benefit of if the doubt, especially in talking to others. But you know that team, even his buddies, wouldn't cry if we made a change. They know we need an upgrade. They all do.

I can't even do that posting in here. I'll let some stuff get past me and I'll see it quoted and it drives me nuts and I'll go in and change it. I've even gone in people's posts that quoted me and changed it. #modpower 😆

The Athletic should hire editors. 

My good friend was a newspaper editor just 10 15 years ago buy days it basically ceases to exist now. It's not valued by the publications anymore 

I had a couple freelance editors I would send some work to when I got busy or for big money jobs and they were super valuable. Brutal at times because they would really chop it up but I always appreciated the work they did. It's a shame they aren't used/needed as much anymore.

What's the reason for 5 minute edited policy?  Is this some petty Zod bullshit?

I think it's more of a platform thing, but also could be that some have abused it and gone back and changed some bold statements. I don't know.

LOL 

I hope Rhule is still sold. Go get that LT and try again lol. A healthy CMC...it's all too funny. Some people never learn but at least we can get that LT and still get rid of Rhule next year after Sam's first vet year where he is exactly the waste of talent at QB he has been since college. It would be hilarious if Rhule chose to do what I wanted forced upon him.

"Others players"

C'mon Joe.

No.  Think about it.

Let's say Person does have connections to some of the Panthers players.  If he starts naming names in "print" of those who may not be sold on Darnold, how likely do you think those players will be to answer the phone again?

If a player publicly makes a statement, of course, Person can report that.  But when you're building relationships in an effort to get interesting tidbits, you can't out your sources.

Sorry. Didn't have a problem with him saying other players and not specifying. He said "others players".  It's just me be being a grammatical jackass.

      Well, the Niners just doomed themselves to mediocrity

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.

      The Bryce Trade is Finally Complete. Who Won the Trade? Panthers vs Bears

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO.

      Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
