Ravens looking to cut Earl Thomas. Was what he did cut worthy? He got caught cheating on his wife. Hardly a crime unless I'm missing something. Not like he was the one pulling out a gun.

Not saying this is a race issue like others are getting at. Just find it even funnier knowing that the Bears moved up for Trubisky instead of drafting Watson. I don't shit on them too hard for Mahomes because I don't think he was a finished product in college and he just fell to the right situation. Watson though, I thought he was head and shoulders the best in the class. After watching him win at Clemson and beating Bama I was all in on that dude. So the Bears just never reached out to him at all? That brings up the question. Was it Trubisky no matter what? (Draft Day movie reference) or were they just not high enough on Watson to even use one of their "visits" or "interviews" with him at all? I just know if I was in the market for a QB I'd have talked to a bunch of them.

Apparently Booger and Tessitore aren't returning to MNF. No news on replacements yet. I cant imagine anyone would be worse than Booger. Wish they would go younger. Mike Golic Jr would be a fun color guy.

Do we have any Seahawks fans here? Apparently a Reddit user named EveryoneLovesNudez had a bunch of fans convinced that the Seahawks were trading for Myles Garrett yesterday to the point where Myles Garrett tweeted about it and it got the guy on a Seattle based radio station to talk about the trade. Turned out it was a troll job by said Reddit user but still. I find it pretty damn funny that he actually got on a radio station.
Here is a link to him on the radio station. The radio guys seem to be getting a kick out of it.
The fact that some Seahawks fans believed this rumor is quite hilarious. I almost hope that it comes true just so EverybodyLovesNudez can be cited for being first on the scoop.

Steelers in trouble? James Harrison made the claim that after getting fined $75,000 for a hit years ago, coach Mike Tomlin handed him a "brown envelope". Art Rooney and Harrison's agent both completely denied the allegation. Yeah, I'm sure Harrison just conjured it up for no reason at all. Nothing to see here, folks...

Absurd. Now they want to dangle treats for teams in an effort to get them to hire minorities? And how are those minorities supposed to feel thinking that they were hired just so the team could get a reward?
Look, I get that minorities are under-represented in NFL coaching staffs, but this is not the way to tackle it.

Harrison seems like a major douche.
Bitter/jaded his playing days are over and feels the need to put ex teammates/coaches on blast.
Move on with your life dude - it was douchey enough you went to the Pats - I mean I get it to an extent - it's your career/paycheck/livelihood - but still a douchey move IMO - he was running his yapper then too.

However I also dont have a solution for the problem either. It's not like we can force teams to hire minorities. What would it say about some of the guys hired? Were they only hired because the owner was bribed by draft positioning? Do you have teams name somebody into a role only to not give them said power? I'm sure there would be teams looking to use it to their advantage more so than actually looking to hire these people on qualifications. I still remember the story that an Owner would hire a GM based on who they'd want to sit next to on a long flight. Wish they'd have named that owner.

Sounds like Jason Kelce answered our questions on what the problem is with Andre Dillard and why the Birds are thinking about bringing Jason Peters back.
Apparently he's a weakling with no strength.

RB Carlos Hyde is signing with the Seahawks. Good pickup for the Seahawks, he ran for 1000 yards last year, him and Carson should make a nice rushing combo.

I never said Brady wasn't any good. I just said the Patriots have benefited annually from a weak division. And now he's in a division with a backup QB, a 41 year old quarterback, and a QB who had 1 good year. To the Brady hatters, the NFC South will be considered the weakest division in the 2020 season. Just you wait and see. It is as you predicted, oh wise voice from the past. The only team in the NFC South with a winning record is the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Patriots are not first in their division, but it must be because their division is tougher than the Buccaneers. *snicker* *snicker* *snort*

You keep changing the qualifiers, dude. And you keep ignoring the points I'm making. The other teams in the AFC East win more than the teams in the other divisions which didn't win the division, but you're forgetting that other divisions have franchises like the Browns, Jaguars, Raiders, Buccaneers, and Cardinals. To say the AFC East has been a more competitive division than the AFC North just because the teams that didn't win the division won more games is basically ignoring the fact that the AFC North has the fucking Browns and the top three teams have each taken turns winning the division for the past decade and the runner-up usually made it to the playoffs. And I'm not even getting into the other divisions like the NFC West where the Seahawks have largely been leading the division the last decade but the other teams went from two-three year periods of contention to quickly rebuilding, and the Rams spent most the decade being completely garbage. The only thing the other AFC East teams manage to do is remain consistently mediocre... which I said earlier. But I guess always being able to stay above 4 wins and below 9 wins year after year while the division winner hasn't won less than 11 games since 2009 is somehow more of an accomplishment than being able to get to the playoffs. Truly a more competitive division. Well, actually, no I don't. I usually try to provide more of an explanation of the numbers. You can't just present numbers without thinking about why those numbers are the way they are. At least not when there are so many variables at play here. Ok, dude. Well, let's be honest here, none of that is true. I did look at the information, I do have a leg to stand on, and there is plenty of supporting evidence. The problem is that the evidence I can present you with will point toward a different conclusion to the one you've already reached, and you clearly one of those people... so... And, since then, what have the Jets done? Look, you keep making it seem like I'm talking shit about the Patriots and I'm saying their success from 2010-2019 only comes from their division being mostly garba -- er, I mean mediocre. BUT it does help. I'm not even bitter. And while the Browns have been garbage, I'm also a Steelers fan (was a Steelers fan first), so the Browns' failure doesn't really bother me too much. I mean, at this point, I really just watch their games to see how the fuck things up. Well, it helped the Falcons where choking that bitch away real god and the Patriots do have Tom Brady... who is very used to making comebacks in important games. For the sake of the argument, let's concede that the East has been a cakewalk (it hasn't, but let's say that it was.) To try and connect your argument with movieliker's, are you saying that the Patriots consistently beat every team NOT in the AFC East because of how easy the AFC East is? So the Patriots, knowing they are going to win the division no matter what, were able to play looser, thus allowing them to beat the Packers, Saints, Eagles, Rams, Falcons, Seahawks, Steelers, Chiefs, Chargers, etc almost 75% of the time? If your argument, that the Patriots are not as good as their success states, were to hold water, shouldn't it reason that they would only beat the rest of the NFL at, like, a 60% rate? Or maybe even just 65%? Hell, if they *only* beat every team in the NFL (not including the AFC East) 70% of the time, that would still be historically good. But, when they go against an NFL team not from their own division, they still win 74.7% of the time with Brady at QB. So the best the NFL has to offer beats Tom Brady 25.3 out of 100 times, and the weak ass, no good, consistently mediocre AFC East teams beat Brady 20.4 out of 100 times. This would portend that the AFC East hasn't helped Brady at all. And in fact, there are 3 divisions that Brady would have an easier time winning, as he beats the NFC East and NFC North 85% of the time, and the AFC North 80% of the time. He *only* beats the NFC South 75% of the time, so I think we can pencil him in for a 4-2/5-1 division record. Which is basically what he's been doing for 20 years to the East. Couple that with a 75% win rate in the other 10 games (so 7-3 or 8-2, or I suppose 7-2-1) and Brady is most likely going no worse than 11-5, and possibly as good as 13-3. Which, ya know, is what he's been doing for 20 years. And Superbowl number 10.
