From our front office making some extremely boneheaded deal before the deadline 

Yeah the loss itself was tough and this team showed a ton of grit but I can’t help but think they would’ve done something incredibly dumb because we would’ve been in first place 

When we stumbled into the playoffs in 2014 at 7-8-1 we had our franchise QB and having them gain valuable playoff experience was worth it.

It is much different when we’re looking for our QB still. Those draft slots are more valuable now

When it looks like Bryce and Stroud are the only 1st rounders at QB, we really need to be in position.  The entire NFC will be needing QBs next year subtract Dallas, Philly & MIN.  Seriously, the entire conference.  

Trading up for one will not be easy.  Today was a heartbreaker but it is true.

They’re going to identify their guy and do whatever they can to go get him. I much rather see them move up from 7 than 18 or something 

Ideally a team that has a QB is in the top 3. Like Jacksonville. Although I don’t think Lawrence is all that but they’re one of the very few teams that would likely be willing to trade out

Seriously, that's something I'm realizing this year.  I know JAX hasn't given him much but they've got the guy that even with a bad team, gets QBs to look good.  The running game was a monster, and his arm just doesn't seem good.  His arm strength seems gumby like and he just doesn't create.  Starting to look pretty iffy for me with Trevor.  

My favorite story right now: Tua is turning into the pre-college injury monster everyone thought he was while others were saying Trevor was the next GOAT.  Different drafts but that Trevor noise was loud and for some time much like Luck.  Those were the two mega-hyped ones in the internet age.

    • I think Indiana will win it all but Miami should give them a much better fight than Oregon did.
    • When I tell people I was at that game, they usually say oh that’s so cool you had the experience. I call it soul crushing. Why? The weeks and months leading up to it were great, the team was fun to watch every week…some weeks the offense was unstoppable and carried the team (saints and giants road games), other times the defense carried the load (jaguars, tampa). Lots of back and forth games against good teams (Seattle and Indy). Good young players on the team, but the veteran leadership was incredible…from Cam, Olsen, Kalil and J Stew to Luke, TD, Norman, Tillman, Jared Allen, CJ. Role players like Fozzy Whitaker, Cotchery (he caught that MFer), Philly brown, Kyle love, AJ Klein, and so on.  The Friday before the nfc championship my wife and I after a few drinks said let’s see what prices look like for flights/accommodations and we got to talking about how much prices would increase if we waited until we found out if we would be in the big game. We said screw it, we are only out $200 if we have to cancel.  Of course we come out and just pulverized the cardinals in front of the most raucous crowd by far we’ve ever had. We had no idea what we would do for game tickets and then found out a neighbor who worked for the team could get us 2 for face value (each employee got two of their own for free, something cool that JR did).  But then the NFL mafia decided that the storyline of manning going out on top like Elway would give them more goodwill than a non traditional QB who didn’t connect with their target demo and the rest is history. I never have and never will watch that game again. I am just hoping I can see them win one in the 2nd half of my life.
