He has better edge help on the other side now, so he'll probably average 12 sacks or so and people will get all excited. Not realizing they were all from 7 or 8 games and he was targetted against the run the whole time. Those sacks will be fluff numbers in NY and everyone will say how bad of a trade it was.

I suspect he will have more than one sub-double digit sack season during the term of that deal.

Nothing burger of a story. The market dictated Burns’ value.

well, we can still be lead by bad negotiators and managers of our assets.   

I think the Giants sort of confirmed that.  They got a deal they probably didn't expect.  Which is largely the thought on CMC and DJ as well.  Mr. In on Every Deal wasn't really that good at going about it.

sounds like we just accepted their initial offer or perhaps Morgan asked for a 5th instead of a 2nd

He was in on every deal.  He just lost every time.  It didn't say win every deal.

Except the Matt Rhule shrug GIF. Gone but not forgotten….

Got to keep the faith.  One day some youngster here will answer those prayers when the time is right with an epic post featuring the Matt Rhule shrug gif.

Your star DE is supposed to ice away at least 1 game a season. It’s their purpose and what they do. They murder the opposing team’s comeback drive. Bosa. Garrett.

1st and 10 turns in to 2nd and 10. 2nd and 10 turns in to 3rd and 13 off of a failed screen that he blew the f up. 3rd and 13 gets the bull rush, pro bowl LT on his arse, apologizing to his QB and team. wrap. Yes, there aren’t many in the league, but if you want to be paid like one, you better play like one. 

I actually miss Ginn. All effort. All about the team. Knew his role, and was a guy you had to game plan for. If he was having a good hands day, it was beautiful. Every play, it would be, look for Ted, he’s probably open.

Donald did this in the super bowl too...

Burns was more of a get a sack in the first quarter and take the rest of the day off kind of guy.

Yep. Whether you would or would not have traded him the first time, It was 1.5 years after they turned down the cheese. Now he needs a fat new deal, it is a totally different equation. 

I know he can wreck some plays but he is not a take over guy and I don’t think that is worthy of that level deal. And he’ll kill it with the endorsements in NYC so he probably not unhappy.

      Possibly playoff affectng news

      By Donald LaFell · Posted

      You would hope so. I’m confused why the sports world seems split on Bryce when he’s obviously not working out.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      So let’s do the reverse? Make everyone agree everything he does is a disaster? I also think the whole “gaslighting” is on the eye of the beholder. It went from he can’t avoid one single sack countered with he actually did that well Sunday (with data backing it) to a little breakdown of why he is so bad. People are going to have different opinions. I’m also not going to pretend this wasn’t happening Day one with this little QB.

      All this great stuff he has done, how often does he do it?  I have it at three or four games out of 14 where he was very good and then you get a drive here or a series there where there are some good things. Here is the gaslight part: everyone has put him on a curve with his first year the baseline, neglecting to understand how bad he was then. Even if he comes back twice as good, where does that really leave him? 25th ranked or thereabouts.     He had so far to go, and still does, it is a Major ‘settle’ to accept his play as worthy of giving him our future.  You want to settle when the Bucs have Mayfield, and the Saints have overtaken us at QB? We will be third in the division at QB. That is good enough for y’all?
