OP I definitely feel like they have totally ruined it. “It” referring to being a fan of the team. 

1st, the NFL has been losing me for years. Why do we need games in Germany? Mexico City? I like the National Football League, fir Americans. It isn’t the World Football League.

If they want that why not re-do the NFL vs AFL (with AFL being not American)? So I guess you can’t use the “A” ha, I hope the point survives. Thwe WFL. The EFL might work. If you must. I still don’t see the need. Adopt an American team if you are in Europe.

I like having separate American sports. Or rather, sports that are unique to the US. Ours. I don’t want to steal Europe’s sports (excluding golf probably, and maybe bullfighting).

I am with you on that.

One game in London was a cool novelty at the time. But this weekly poo of games in Europe is trash. There is something to be said about taking guys out of their familiar places, routines, and jet lag, that they do not account for. Just look at Miami last weekend.

      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.
