NFL (since 2016)

Post crystal falace »

"Free agency started last night and was pretty crazy some huge money being spent. Osweiler getting £18m a year for the Texans, leaving the Broncos without a QB, Giants have spent a fortune on good but not great players, Oliver Vernon has more guaranteed money than JJ Watt. lots more deals but cant be bothered to list them all."

"OGS - No tailgating at Lumen Field. Some people do it a few blocks away, but it's not the same as in other places as you can't have alcohol on the street in Washington state. King Street Bar and Oven is where the main lot meet up"

"Nice, thanks TM. Sounding a very decent acquisition. It's on the bucket list to get out there, went to the London Game Hawks vs Raiders, which is good enough but you need the full match day/tailgate stateside."

"I went to Seahawks v Commanders with OTB last year, was very impressed with Sam Howell. Read this week that it was when we identified him as the QB to sign."

"OGS, when you get time have a look at his full debut at the back end of the 2022 season against the cowboys, who were still competing for the division going in to the game. full game without adverts and other distractions (just over two hours). it's a great advert for Sam and why McDonald would have been interested https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8NPhQf5W868"

"Thanks TM, that's a positive and informed take. From the little I've seen and read, he could really push Geno, and then who knows? At worst a great back up and more than solid replacement for Drew Lock, and a potentially very high ceiling: plenty of upside at low cost."

"I watched him the last two years at NC, first with all the weapons like carter, williams, brown, etc before they all left for draft. if he'd also gone, he would have maybe been a top ten pick. instead he carries the offense on his own, without any weapons and calls to us in the fifth round. bienemy destroyed him last year. we didn't have a great I-line but it was better than the previous year that wentz had to deal with. the problem was bienemy refused to run the ball, I think one particular game sam threw fifty consecutive passes. there's a reason eric wasn't hired by a pro team after he was released by us. I'm also not saying sam didn't make mistakes, but he was traumatised by the final third of the season came round, as he was sacked that much and don't have the comfort blanket of a run game. I'd have been happy going again with him this year but a new regime and that number two spot, they want their own man but he couldn't have landed in a better alternative. throughout the bad times, he kept professional and is a great kid"

"Good to see Norf will be backing the Hawks for a while at least. New head coach in the ex-Ravens guy, post-Pete Carroll. And Sam Howell in - any good? Media reports saying that's quite a good under the radar acquisition, that the Commanders didn't have the personnel or coaching in place to give him enough protection or targets/options but he might do well in the PNW?"

"Donald was a superb player. Proper tough fucker, too. I see the QB merry-go-round has gone into overdrive. Wilson and Fields to the Steelers within 48 hours of eachother is interesting. Minshew to Raiders looks like a decent fit, if pricey for that talent (he's solid). Garoppolo to the Rams as backup to Stafford gives that side a strong QB room. Cousins over-priced again, but gives Atlanta solidity. Darnold is a risk for the Vikes, but there's a decent QB in there somewhere. And the Jets landed less-than-average Tyrod Taylor to back up four-minute Rodgers next year. Which means less-than-average Tyrod Tayor will be the Jets starting QB at some point next year! Out of the frying pan into the fire..."

"I didn't think last season's ""four-play, four-minute, mega money injury""ù cameo by Aaron Rodgers could be topped as the most New York Jets moment of all time. But it seems he's working hard to beat it: by discussing become the vice presidential candidate and running mate to RFK Jnr's independent campaign! It won't happen, of course. He's got too much guaranteed money on the line this coming season. And any independent will be out of the presidential race within months. But there's a little part of me that wants it to happen, just to see how our already-irate and depressed fans will react. I suspect there would be little left of the Met Life."

"kirk is the white version of dak prescott. puts up great numbers during the year but shits the bed when it matters. I think, like the vikings, the falcons are overpaying him but it's shows the state of the QB market when above average talent can demand that sort of money"

Kirk Cousins' agent has done a great deal. Cousins is a best of the rest QB and that 4 year deal on the back of injury is astounding. He will have Drake London and Kyle Pitts to throw to and Bijan Robinson but the supporting cast is thin. The Steelers picking up Russell Wilson for next to nothing is also genius. Being better than Kenny Pickett is a pretty low bar. Looks as though The Ravens are going to sign Derrick Henry. He is past his best but having a proper smash mouth RB is going to help Lamar Jackson a lot as the threat of Henry will certainly occupy the mind of their oppenent's defnce.
