N.F.L. Season 2018-19 (2 Viewers)

Hearing stafford to rams for Goff, 2 future 1st round picks and a third round.

That’s a lot to give up! Rams must think with stafford they are Super Bowl bound
 
I like Stafford...always have...
never been nuts about Goff...
Stafford is a QB with better than average numbers...
stuck on a terrible team...
Detroit gave up a league high 500+ points by their defense this year...
hard to win with a defense like that...
actually worse than the Cowboys...so you know that's bad...

Goff is a "so-so"...to errant prone QB...
on a team with a great defense...

cost LA a lot...but this should really improve their team...
now they will have an offense to go with their awesome defense...
Floyd...Donald and Ramsey are probably as excited as the wide receivers are...

better work...:rolleyes2:...they gave a ton for Stafford...

both the new GM and new head coach say they are not gonna trade him...
head coach says the main reason he took the job was to play Watson...
Watson's reason for leaving was that they traded Hopkins (WR) and hired the new GM without his input...
it was in his contract that he would have a voice in both these things...
$40 million a year is a ton...that's probably what Dallas is gonna end up paying Dak...
I think Houston/Watson will work it out...
but I think there will be suitors...and plenty of offers from them...
Watson is the complete package...
young...smart...mobile...can make all the passes...his stats speak for themselves...
tough be to a good player stuck on a bad team...

Watts says he want to leave too...lol...

I have not heard anything about his contract containing any sort of language regarding his consultation on trades and hiring. What has been reported on local Texas news is that he was “upset” that he wasn’t consulted on the hiring of a new coach.

If, and I stress the word if, he had a contract stipulation on trades and he wasn’t consulted on the Hopkins transaction he would have “demanded” a trade prior to the start of the 2020 campaign as Hopkins was traded before this season started.

It's a win now approach. Goff has been awful. The Rams have a championship caliber D but can't get beyond their horrible offense. Risky. If Stafford gets hurt, then it will be a disaster but no risk no reward. The Rams had to deal Goff.
 
So TWO 1st's AND a 3rd for a 33 year old QB who has a grand total of zero playoff wins.

I'll defer to Doug on this as he's a Rams fan, but I always liked Goff, he was on fire up until the SB, then something happened and he's gone backwards ever since....................

Feel badly for him; CA kid, got to play for the Rams in a 5 billion dollar stadium.......now he gets shipped off to Detroit to a team that is clearly on a rebuild.

Stafford said he'd be willing to to anywhere EXCEPT New England.

Brady leaving, that big oaf Gronkowski retiring because "My body is beat up, I can't take the punishment anymore".........insert fake tears.............then a year later he comes back to play with his good buddy Tommy Boy, Stafford not wanting to come here................hmmm.........maybe Belichick is a big meanie and no one wants to play here.

Jason...

maybe it wasn't in the contract...but more of a verbal agreement...either way...he feels offended...

Star quarterback Deshaun Watson is reportedly "extremely unhappy" with the organization after being told by owner Cal McNair that Watson would be involved in the hiring process for Houston's new GM and coach, but was not involved in Caserio's hiring, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
Watson's dissatisfaction does not have to do with the team hiring Caserio, per Rapoport, but rather the fact that Watson's role in the hiring process was not as substantial as he believed it would be.
Watson reportedly provided input on potential GM candidates, though none of them were considered or consulted, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Watson was also not informed that Caserio would be hired, and found out about the decision on social media.

It's sort of amazing to hear that the Rams window is closing; that team was on the rise with a ton of young talent and a dynamic head coach; a few short years later, their window is closing.

What the Patriots did for 19 years is just unfathomable..............

Mike:

Thanks for the info and article.

The Niners are apparently in the running for Watson.

It would be great to have him, on the other hand I’d be constantly worried that he’d demand a trade the moment he wasn’t consulted on a trade or hiring.

Prediction time. I'm not doing so well picking against Brady, but I'm doubling down. This game may be a return to the Super Bowl blowouts of yesteryear. Can't see the Bucs D shutting down Mahomes like they did Rodgers. Their secondary is not very good. Brady will throw a couple of picks and it will get ugly. The Chiefs are one offsides penalty away from three SB wins in a row.

KC 38
Bucs 20

Yeah, this is where I am too.........that Bucs secondary is going to get torched, any pressure they get on Mahomes, his offensive line will hold and grab like they've been doing for three years, or he'll dance out of the pressure for a 25 yard run, or flip a two yard underhanded pass to Hill that will turn into a 40 yard TD.

So if the Chefs win, am I going to see more teenagers walking around with that moronic Mahomes hair do; a half mullet, a half high and tight, it's like his barber had a stroke............................and their coach fatso will be hailed as a Wyle E Coyote super genuis.............yeah no; he's still an idiot but has an all world QB to hide most of his buffoonery.
 
Speaking of hairdo - chiefs barber positive for COVID. Supposedly got results while cutting 20 chiefs hair!
I don’t think all players though. Jeez
 
I was all set to cheer for a Tampa Bay victory, mostly due to my dislike of Andy Reid.

Then I saw Antonio Brown’s interview and I decided to not root for anyone.

Oh well, maybe the commercials will be good.

I used to really like him when he was on the Steelers, basically a wonderful story - 6th round pick, humble hero, then it all went to crap. He was the only receiver in recent history the Steelers bought in to after his rookie contract. He had the world and potential Hall of Fame in his hands. Now, it is hard to look at him with anything other than contempt. I think he is a predator in more ways than one, it will be interesting to see if he ever suffers any real legal consequences for his actions. It appears from reading , he will be in court for quite some time on civil cases. The question will always be - is being a first class jerk and acting like one a crime? I think the jury is literally and figuratively still out.

I do believe his football skills have suffered during the last few years, but you never know, he has the talent and ability to change a game. If he gets hot in the SB, watch out.

The one game he played for the Patriots last year, he was out of this world, a total difference maker, an incredible talent.

Million dollar talent; .05 cent head.

What's not to like about Andy Reid? He seems like a very decent fellow. Certainly compared to the likes of many other ego maniac NFL coaches.
 
AB in TB's 3 post season games...
his stats are 3 receptions on 6 targets...
for 59 yards...

hardly a game changer...

either not that good anymore...
or under utilized...
or just not getting open...

I'm really not aware of many ego maniac NFL head coaches; there are plenty of NCAA football ego maniacs, one of whom just signed on to be the Jacksonville head coach.

Reid is an average to slightly above average coach who's been the beneficiary of a superb QB.

Funny how that works out, like that stooge Arians who coaches the Bucs; he lands the GOAT and suddenly he's in the Super Bowl.
