What if games are for kids. 

What ifs are built into the very fabric of language, specifically the one you are typing in. 
 

A foundational characteristic of human beings is the concept of future and past, so what ifs are used consistently for analyzing the past (such as this thread) and for theorizing the future. Such future what if thinking might be eating less food today so you have some for tomorrow (or so you won’t gain weight over time, etc) and other planning.
 

So what ifs aren’t just for kids, but are used by every person, many times daily, all the time. 
 

And that includes you.

 

Now if you are saying we are all kids no matter the age, I might agree with that.

How could anyone say, "Releasing Cam?"  He was coming off surgery and has never recovered.  He would have commanded a $100m salary.  I mean, if he went on to take NE to the Super Bowl and was still starting somewhere, I might agree.

It was not Rhule who disrespected Cam.  It was Ron Rivera (the way he used Cam and the way they avoided spending on an OL).

 

Just my 2c,  but signing Cam would have been terrible.  Not a Rhule supporter, but there is no room for blind loyalty in the NFL.

What if games is a child's game. Meaning immature.  

I don't care how you look at it. 

 I don't play such stupidity.

I dont think cutting Cam was an issue. Remember Cam had 1 year left on his contract and was coming off an injured shoulder and a poor season. Reports were that Cam wanted a new contract.

So with all of that I think the coaching staff had to go look for an alternative. 

Cam was never going to come back on a 1 year contract. 

Should have called his bluff. I’ve always thought that. If Cam was willing to risk his career holding out when everyone had valid concerns about whether he still had it; let him. Instead they pulled the plug so they could move quickly on Bridgewater.

100% punt the 2020 coofus season. 

Never sign Teeddddy2gloves

Come to terms with cutting Cam after 4 cry sessions

Dont trade tri"got my bag now I quit" turner for okung ""giimmie bitcoins""

Stock pile picks for 2021 

Stack cap space for 2021 

Go hard in 2021 given 100+ million in cap space and 13+/- draft picks.

Cutting Cam and hiring Bridgewater.  I consider them both part of one decision.  Best to let Cam play out his final year, see if he has anything left.  If not, draft a qb and more on.  

The Cam/Bridgewater thing was the first of several baffling decisions at qb that still make no sense at all.

      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.
