The Bengals are the only team in the top 10 of that list to get a Super Bowl appearance. I get you're a homer but you're digging deep here if you think any of those other teams you mentioned are legit Super Bowl contenders.

your statement :  The only one I see is Joe Mixon with the Bengals. All the other teams have fringe playoff hopes or are already thinking about who they might draft next year.

You're just going to omit the part literally right before that asking how many Super Bowl contending teams have a running back top 5 in salary? If you just want to bash each other let's give it a go but surely we can come up with something better than this?

no, you literally said the rest of the teams have fringe playoff hopes or already thinking about who they draft next year.... those teams are top of their divisions. lol. Your statement was completely false. 6 of the 7 highest paid RBs are all on winning teams....

We're 6 games into the season there's a long ways to go bud. Dallas has already been one and done recently in the playoffs via a very embarrassing meltdown their QB has been hurt the Vikings have yet to advance any further similarly the Titans were dispatched quickly last season and haven't looked quite as formidable as they did a few seasons ago. The Chargers could make a run but do you feel confident in that? That leaves the Giants so you think their ready to make the jump to Super Bowl contention this season? Cool.

Can you confidently say that any of the teams listed are already thinking about the draft? Bc I think you attempted to do so, but we both know that is wrong. It is so weird you are defending this statement:  All the other teams have fringe playoff hopes or are already thinking about who they might draft next year.

The thinking about the draft part was in reference to some of the rest of the teams in the top ten of the list. Like us the Browns the Saints and maybe even the Packers unless Rodgers suddenly wakes up and he's 25 again. Unless you would like to dispute all of that too while you're at it.

not sure if you are aware but you put top 5, not top 10 in your original comment. I could agree that the Saints and Panthers are teams with the top 10 paid RBs in the league that are looking forward. However, the rest are looking at getting to the playoffs and potentially winning the Super Bowl.

We're just wading into the semantics waters at this point. I would caution you about making assumptions like that this early in the season. There are 11 more games and that's a long ride. And hey furthermore as far as assuming a team is a contender perhaps too early we kinda have some experience with that ourselves with that Kyle Allen win streak and starting 3-0 with Darnold.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
