Kolek planning to go pro
Tua’s stats pre/post concussion yesterday are pretty striking (no pun intended). I have no idea if the outcome of that game yesterday changes or what, but that definitely should have been spotted. Seeing the replay and knowing the player has a recent history of concussions, he should have been out of the game.
Bears are going to be set no matter what. You can stay and take your pick of Carter or Anderson, or trade back, recoup many years' of draft capital and still end up with an impact player (possibly still one of those two). The Colts would make an attractive trade partner
Per Jeff Legwold (who knows 99% less about the NFL than GB Warrior) "With the wealthiest ownership group in the NFL as well as a fan base passionate enough, even now, to have given the Broncos a home sellout streak that dates back to 1970, the Broncos' head-coaching role will be an attractive job."
So the writer paid to write about the Broncos is drumming up the Broncos open head coaching position? Shocking!What makes the position attractive (other than selling out the stadium, which probably means the fanbase expects winning football, and given they’re one of the worst rosters in the league and don’t have their first or second round picks either of the next two years isn’t a great way to change that…)?
The Colts cleaned house after seven games, when they were 3-3-1. Under Saturday, the Colts have gone 1-7.The current division leader is under .500.
And having a wealthy ownership group really doesn't mean much in the NFL because your limitation is the cap. Anyway, I still think Miami where Ross wanted him last year. I always thought McDaniel was just a cheap, one-year rental. He will be the fall guy for Tua playing with concussion issues.
One thing I think the Bears should entertain is buying draft picks, and I think Indianapolis is a great team to work with in that regard.Matt Ryan’s deal is up after 2023, and he has a $10M roster bonus due 3/17. If the Bears took on Ryan’s contract in early March for a 2nd & 5th, and then released him before 3/17, everyone (Ryan loses $10M) wins. Indy simply loses two picks, it costs the Bears $18M in cap space they have to burn anyway.For me, if the Bears trade down, whoever is at #4 would be the ideal trade partner to get Carter and get additional picks.
The rumor about a month ago was that Payton was angling for the Chargers job. However, I don't see the Spanos dumping Staley after the making the playoffs.
JJ Watt is a decent dude and very charitable, but I’m SHOCKED he took this retirement path and not a corny full year documentary, preferably with a Fort Minor soundtrack.Incredible player at his peak, first ballot HOFer, but man JJ has always LOVED the JJ story and brand
Derek Carr as a Raider appears over
So if the Raiders cut Carr, he'd simply be a free agent and any team that wants to sign him would be starting over -- not bound by his current contract at all. Right?It will be interesting to see what he'd fetch on the open market. He regressed this season, but he was pretty darn good in 2021, and he's only 31 years old.
I wonder if Brady goes to Vegas next season.
Yep. And given that the Raiders owe him $116MM over the next 3 seasons, taking the $41MM hit to close out the rest of his guaranteed money isn’t a terrible outcome.And I agree, he’s been a solid to very good QB throughout his career. Shocking that notable coaching cancer Josh McDaniels shows up and suddenly he regresses to his worst stats in 6+ years…God I’d love that. 46 year old Brady with no arm strength playing for McDaniels who has only poisoned QBs as a HC
