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."

What's the current take on the QB musical chairs? Watson to Panthers or Saints? Does that mean Sam Darnold to Hawks if the former? What a joy this off-season is. Pete Carroll/John Scheider better have a masterplan because this is looking a bit fubar already.

Obviously been told they are going to be spending big for one more run. He wouldn't be coming back otherwise. But the most egotistical me me me cսnt since Bret Favre can fuck right off and I hope they fall short again.

"I can only assume two things happened. Gronk has been on the phone to him constantly and they've promised him they have some star free agents lined up, like Bobby Wagner and Allen Robinson"

I can only thiink that he has come to the conclusion that the Bucs can win the big one next year. Have they got OBJ on another cheap contract? The moment they lost the in the playoffs this year was when the right tackle (can't remember the name) got injured. His protection vanished there.

"anyone who's watched the pat mcafee show on youtube (ex colts kicker), their owner has been on a few times - is very extrovert and very opinionated. I think he's also pretty popular amongst much of the media, so most have been sticking the boot in regards to wentz though there is one rare sane voice in colin cowherd. a pundit who rarely has a good word to say about us, but thinks this is a good signing and nothing to do with wentz character issues/personality problems being painted by toxic media talking heads, and more about jim irsay forcing his gm's hand as he becomes more & more impatient. remember wentz was their 5th qb in 5 years, maybe they need a new owner?"

"Wentz to the Washington Wingnuts (or whatever they're called these days) is not a bad move, TM. As you say, takes the pressure off you in the draft - not many great-looking QBs kicking around, although a few solid choices. I'm reading that the Colts may yet have a sniff around Mayfield at Cleveland (also wanted by the Buccs), or Carr at the Lost Venal Raiders. Looks like a QB merry-go-round. Yet Jimmy G can't buy a ticket out of Frisco. I tell you - he's going to go somewhere unexpected and do a half-decent job. Eventually!"

"As well as the short, simple passes which he used to be brilliant at with Ertz, he has an absolute cannon for an arm and can launch it downfield into the quickest receiver without their stride missing a beat. Must be very infuriating to coach though because he too often tries the spectacular and doesn't look after the ball well when he does. I think Indy were too quick to let him go. Had a terrible end but was solid the rest of the year and spectacular at times. If he matures and cuts out the needless errors, Washington have got a player on their hands. Good to have him back in the division, might try and get over to the Linc when he plays or maybe go to Washington when the Birds take that over."

Wentz was on fire at points last season. You are right TM most of his best plays were quick or play action bullets down the line. Give him time to think and he can be all over place. It is weird that he was so good at extending the play in the Eagles SB season.

"What's worried me when watching him in the past is trying to extend plays and getting in trouble, which has led to injuries. The more I think about it, the more I'm happy with the trade"

"On his day, Wentz has got an arm as good as anyone in the league and is a joy to watch. Off his day he wants 5 minutes to make a decision and a 10 yr old girl could force a fumble from him."

"Some reports were saying that Washington's offer for Russell Wilson was better than Denver's, but Seattle/Wilson wouldn't trade to an NFC team? And Jets-bad would be horrendous, sbbb."

"....of course we wanted better, of course we wanted wilson/rodgers/watson but none of that was happening while we have that poisonous cսnt snyder in charge of the franchise. what's weird and a bit of a mystery is why the colts want him gone after a pretty decent year. allegedly (and I'm only hearing this from a fan channel) rivera's not drafting a QB now in the 1st round. It looks like ron's days are numbered if/when this doesn't work out"

"If you become 'Jets bad' then prepare yourselves for some serious shite each and every week...for 50 years! But if your fans are anything like the Jets', then they won't give much of a toss and will turn up in a Ukranian snowstorm to watch utter garbage."
