Sounds like this was known about in February. Nothing was done until TMZ releases the video and he’s cut hours later. Incredible.

Pretty similar to Ray rice. And again, TMZ. Total BS when NFL says they can't get the tape

As usual, NFL has some explaining to do. I have little faith in them.

No, because only Dallas was willing to offer a first round pick, when the rest of the market dictated otherwise. One can argue that Dallas was willing to overpay because they saw some additional value in Cooper that other teams didn't see, but knowing Jerry Jones history, I would doubt that's the case.

Cooper has no doubt helped the Cowboy offense, but I still firmly believe they could have gotten him for less than a first round pick.

Here's what we have been told (we have a major sponsorship with the Boys and Dak specifically).  The team wanted to know if they should commit to Dak or not, and with the receivers they had it was tough for them to make that determination. They were willing to overpay (which they did) for Cooper to get that ability on the field to help them determine what they have in Dak.  Nice kid, has a good character story to tell....holds the ball too long in my opinion, but that is fixable..

It was a blast at the game last night, as loud as I've heard the place since the Packers - Cowboys playoff game a few years ago.  Sad to say probably the biggest win by the team in a few years.  Likely top 5 win for this team in the last 15 years....it's not been good to be a Cowboys fan for a long time.   Agree with Wades that this team is not going far in the playoffs, but the defense is pretty good so you never know.

KC turned the matter over to the league. In the meantime they talked to Hunt who denied it. Once the tape came out, they knew he lied to their faces and cut him immediately.


Maybe he knows how to play baseball. Cubs might be interested.

As a KC resident I hope this is the case as it provides at least some sense of moral compasss.  The NFL is basically a reflection of many aspects of America today - if you are good at your job and make a lot of money for your employer you get a pass.  See: Kobe Bryant, Ben Roethlsburger, Steve King, etc., etc.

cue Blue Man Group to bring down 110yrs of Cub fandom upon you!!

But Ray Rice was stomach churning flat out assault. This is a drunken altercation where the female is the aggressor and charges would likely not follow if it was non-athletes. I never condone violence against women but she has an awfully hard time claiming the defenseless victim role. Especially cause she pretty clearly dropped a slur to get the party started.

Chiefs did right thing, but I can see it being a dilemma internally. The lying by Hunt is the bigger issue.

[DegenerateDish]

I’m not saying I support it, but I can envision the Bears signing Hunt, if he is still unsigned come March.

Ultimately I think he’ll get a second chance, teams will view him as cheap/impactful talent, he will need to show reconciliation. I think a team like the Eagles, Bears, a team that’s contending, in a big enough media market with other distractions around will be where he ends up.

He not only attacked the woman, but when she was knocked to the ground, started kicking a helpless individual.

Most definitely there would have been charges for anyone, it is more likely that charges were not filed, because he is famous.

After being burnt by Ray McDonald, I don't see it for the Bears. But, I agree, he will get another shot somewhere else.

Good play call Big Mac!  3rd and 10 at midfield and a nice run.  Just send the punt team out there on 3rd down if you're going to do that.

And more brilliant play from special teams.

[GGGG]

This game is boring.

I just don't understand why no one wants to buy our Packer game tickets anymore.  Top notch entertainment in sleet?  C'mon what else could you ask for?

[DegenerateDish]

That was really really really brutal time management by Nagy. I’ve mentioned this before, he needs desperately to be self scouted this offseason when it comes to that.

Once offenses from the 1990’s come back in style, there will be a big demand.

[Jockey]

Mac needs to go - today!

The team has already quit on him. Why prolong it any longer?

[Jockey]

At the least, make it look like you’re trying to tackle someone.

Hopefully, they lose out and get a top draft pick.

[DegenerateDish]

Bears absolutely deserved the L today, every unit poor, terribly coached as well.

[CreightonWarrior]

What a joke, rock bottom.

[wadesworld]

Hahahahahaha. Throw basically a Hail Mary with 9 seconds left rather than try to get an extra 5-10 yards for Crosby and then of course Crosby misses the 49 yard field goal to tie the game. Incredible.

[Jockey]

What a joke

Can’t get any more embarrassing than this.

[DegenerateDish]

Holy $hit

[CreightonWarrior]

Holy $hit

ballsy play call, well done
