2024-25 NFL Thread

Seems I've been had by ESPN. I have to adjust my position on the Sweat deal. Reports are the deal is $40M guaranty with an out after 2025. Not $75M like ESPN reported.

This seems more inline with the market. Maybe Poles isn't so bad. A very good deal for a very good player.

It is time for Fields to return.

Tough day for a segment of Bears fans

[tower912]

A tough day for all Bears fans.  A data point against the idea that Bagent is the solution.

Or you could say the perfect solution for the #1 pick?

Ravens look like the best team in football.  This week.

[tower912]

They did two weeks ago, too.

Vikings pick up a QB.



This could keep Minnesota in the playoff hunt.

Bump


Skol

[PGsHeroes32]

Josh Dobbs has entered the MVP convo

[WhiteTrash]

Bears got the wrong OSU QB 

[Jay Bee]

Skol Vikings!! 

I was ready to move 100% into college bball season, but now my hopes of a SUPER BOWL are renewed!! (Or at least a second place divisional finish behind the kitties)

Detroit plays Minnesota twice in the last 3 weeks with a trip to Dallas sandwiched in the middle.    I hope that Detroit has clinched the division before that stretch.   I want no chance of self destruction.

Giving a proven edge rusher good money is a top 10 worst contract in NFL history? Come on. I hate Chicago sports teams and love trolling Chicago sports fans, but this won't even be a top 10 worst contract in the next calendar year. This is a worse take than Patrick Williams is just Joey Hauser.

Having said that, Bagent is that dude.

First, I ASKED if it was top 10. Second, it has come out that ESPN was off by $35M in the amount guaranteed. I amended my position. Third, the P Williams take was hyperbole, as I admitted, due to shock of his $200M ask. (FYI, he no longer starts for the Bulls)

Goal for Bagent is to develop into a quality backup QB. His picks were beyond poor this afternoon, if he cleans that up, he's on the road to being a good backup QB. He made some nice throws today and his runs were intelligent. If he learns from the mistakes today and can improve, good. If he keeps making throws into coverage, then he'll be a good XFL QB.

If Bagent can become a quality backup, that is a win with an undrafted FA QB.

Young looking horrible today for the Panthers. Hopefully he has a better second half.

[WhiteTrash]

Who else is excited for the prime time Bears v Panthers game this week? I predict the AZ Cardinals are the only winner from that game.

[Pakuni]

The Giants are bad, but how much did the Raiders hate Josh McDaniels?

[WhiteTrash]

What is the story with the Giants? I accept the premise they played over their head last year, but they look awful. (11 PPG)

Is the Daniel Jones extension a top 10 worst contract?

Stroud has been awesome. I give him, Ryans, and their coaching staff a ton of credit. The talent around Stroud is ok at best, and he's making their playmakers matter.

Both the Bears & Panthers might have made big mistakes.

As a Bucs +3 guy, I was pretty happy with Ryans' decision not to attempt an extra point or two-point conversion at the end.

[MU82]

One week after thoroughly outplaying Stroud in a head-to-head matchup, Young throws 2 awful pick-6s while Stroud goes for like 900 yards and 11 TDs.

[Uncle Rico]

Tommy DeVito getting snaps is something

[tower912]

My goodness the Cowboys are missing by inches.
