dont care Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 1 hour ago, DoctorWhom said: I've seen people saying Sony was another "bust" or bad pick largely because of Chubb still being on the board. I don't understand that at all. He was a large reason why the patriots won the super bowl in 2018. He fell off a bit afterwards, but he still wasn't terrible. The fact he won a super bowl (and played a large part in it) make me say this was a successful pick by Belichick. Sure he's not as good as Chubb, but they won a Super Bowl with him, so why does it matter? Won a super bowl while on the patriots isn’t the same as winning a super bowl for the pats. Also after that season he didn’t just fall, he dropped like a rock between injuries and performance. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also not a fan of "player x was a bust because player y exceeded all realistic expectations", but the Patriots are nothing in the after-Brady era, so it's fair to say that had they drafted Chubb, they still would have won that SB, and have a stronger team in the AB era. That being said, I've never heard of the guy so I don't really know how good or not good he is. Every team passed on Tom Brady in his draft. Does that make every player drafted that year a bust?

DG_ThenNowForever Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 It's such a Bills thing that in this, their season with the most promise since the early 1990s, they might knock themselves out of competition with COVID nonsense before the season even starts. 7 Quote 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Beasley tests positive even once during the season, they need to cut his anti-vaxx ass immediately. Not worth jeopardizing their season for one moron. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCarp1231 Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Jaguars are trading QB Gardner Minshew to the Eagles. Bit of a weird move. I wonder if that means Flacco will be let go or traded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if that means Flacco will be let go or traded. Something's up. The Eagles generally don't do things without having further moves planned - even if those take a year to materialize. "According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Eagles sent the Jaguars a 6th-round pick in 2022 that will become a 5th-round pick if Minshew plays at least 50 percent of the snaps in at least three regular-season games." "With the Eagles, Minshew will start out as the No. 3 quarterback behind Jalen Hurts and Joe Flacco, but at 25 he gives the Quarterback Factory a young player with experience who’s had success." I haven't watched any Eagles preseason, but by all accounts, Joe Flacco has absolutely nothing left. It's also a known fact that the Eagles have very little faith in Jalen Hurts, and are stocking up on draft picks to either trade for Watson (if he's cleared) or move up to the top of the draft. The best case scenario is that Hurts pans out and they can use those picks to build around him, but the front office doesn't think that's going to happen. It's also possible that they feel that the NFC East is so bad that they can compete for the title, even if that means only winning 6 or 7 games. In which case, much like when they reacquired Foles, they feel like they needed a better backup for when Hurts inevitably misses time due to all the running he does. *EDIT* the "Quarterback Factory" quip in one of those quotes is in reference to a stupid quote the GM said after they drafted Hurts for no reason. He said something like "we always want QBs in our room. We are a quarterback factory. We consistently churn out great QBs that become assets to us or in trades" LOL get off the crack pipe bro.

Red Comet Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 If you have a great quarterback you wouldn’t trade him. This is why you don’t hire accountants to be GMs. CFO, sure, but not someone who is trying to build a roster. Numbers and bottom lines alone do not a championship team make.

It's just a matter of time before he is parked or jailed. Trading for him could only involve a complex set of conditional picks, which I wonder if the NFL would even approve of such a trade. It will be interesting to see hat happens to Watson by Tuesday when rosters have to get to 53. I wonder if he will "tweak a knee" at home this weekend and end up on IR? 6 Quote It's where I sit.

I don't disagree - and I don't want him. Just regurgitating what lots of 'insiders' have been saying. If Carson Wentz' god keeps him healthy for 13 games, then the Eagles will have 3 1st round picks next year that should be able to net them just about anything they want. I think they have multiple 2s too. 2 Quote "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

BBTV Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 That hardly supports the claim that the Dolphins are the 'favorites'.

DoctorWhom Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 Only reason Dolphins would be in on Watson is if they were absolutely convinced Tua is a bust. Unless the team is the Denver Broncos, I'm not believing any rumors about Watson. But Texans are going to have to deal with the Elephant in the room sooner or later. If they were smart they would get what they could for Watson and make him somebody else's problem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GDAWG Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 Speaking of the Dolphins....they have two offensive coordinators in George Godsey and Eric Studesville. So who calls the plays on offense? Do they alternate play calling? Like Godsey calls one play and Studesville calls the next and so on and so forth? Also which one of those two construct the offense weekly? Also why do they have co-offensive coordinators? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Vikings have two, I think. Some teams have none officially. Not NFL, but a few years ago the Florida Gators had co-offensive coordinators (John Hevesy and Billy Gonzalez) but Dan Mullen is the one the handled offensive play calling.

Kooky01 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Titans fan here, if Watson gets shipped off somewhere else, that will make my day. (Not that the Texans are a playoff contender or anything like that). If he does go to Miami, I don't care. Just don't trade him to Jacksonville (which I know will NOT happen) or Indy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have basically no competition for your division title. Unless 2021 Carson Wentz becomes 2017 Carson Wentz, the AFC South Champs are the Titans. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
