Most of the big stories out today are about fifth year options, cuts, etc.

Here's one that's not though, and one that might be kind of important.

 

The wife and I had a good long conversation during the 1st round that something seemed off about Roger that night.

Nothing major, we both picked up on it but couldn’t exactly figure out what it was.

22 million for Love?

Is he really worth that much or is this just "F--- you, Aaron"? 🤔

To get that 22 the probably have to win the super bowl, in which the answer is yes.

13 for a unproven starter is a little steep, but not enough to cripple you and gives Love generational financial security so he doesn't have to think about surviving to the next contact.

They know what they are doing.

I think you guys are missing why GB did it. 2024 was Love’s fifth year option, which was $20.1M fully guaranteed. They gave him the opportunity to earn 10% more but it also gives GB the opportunity to save $6.5M if he blows this year. Seems like a decent risk reward. If he’s all that GB wants, paying an extra $2.4M is no big deal but it takes 1/3 of the risk away from a fully guaranteed 5th year.

It’s similar to what we didn’t do for Darnold. We didn’t take any risk off the table for the what if he sucks option. Love deserves a bit of extra $$$ because unlike Sam, he didn’t have a track record of he sucks. Sam did have that he sucks track record and we still have him the fully guaranteed money instead of making our risk having to pay an extra $4M if he was so hood we had to franchise. The franchise tag is a lot more expensive for QBs now so GB took the correct approach.

the longer you do that job, the more enemies you gradually make.  eventually, the enemies outnumber the allies.  I am guessing that is where we are now.  I have no problems with Goodell.

I would like to see Goodell stay because his replacement could be a lot worse, . "If it's no broke, don't try to fix it".

      PANTHERS @ HURRICANES ROUND 3 GAME 1

      Yep he made the comment " I dont know what they were doing out there at that point" in the press conference. Let's be real they all got paid but they also know his system suppresses there offensive potential.

      Yup the casuals on Facebook ive gotten 85 laughing or angry emojis so far for pointing it out.  The amount of them throwing a fit because the canes were booed is insane

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By woahfraze · Posted

      Why are you so fixated on yards? Even if yards were a good judge of QB play, his low yardage totals in some of those games were partly a function of drops (looking at you Xavier Leggette…).  I’m not advocating that Bryce was elite for the last half of last year, but the eye test certainly supported high level QB play for large stretches. He made a lot of high difficulty, put it on the money/drop in the bucket throws. He converted on 3rd and 4th down, kept drives moving, and put the team in position to win games. And it’s not on him that the defense blew it late after he led game tying drives, Leggette dropped a game winning TD, or Chuba fumbled the ball in OT. We could have finished the season close to .500 with wins against 3 playoff teams including KC and Philly during that stretch largely due to Bryce’s play.    Has he sustained this level of play long enough to deserve an higher ranking? No. But for judging based in that stretch alone, he would. But whether he can perform more consistently at that level or build on that, and thus earns a higher ranking, remains to be seen.
