Bryant flopped like Lebron out there, and the refs ate it up

[Spiderham]

He's not wrong.

Dak Prescott era needs to be over after this year.

Dak Prescott is a DEI hire.  I said what I said.

Dak Prescott is a DEI hire.  I said what I said. 

He's still the best QB from that draft.

[BASS]

Bears leave 3, if not 7, points on the field after going 0-4 on 1st and goal from the 1 foot line.

Eagles about to go 99 yards.

And holy shit Jalen hurts just got laid out.

[BASS]

Hurts on the sideline in the tent and Andy Dalton throws a pick in the end zone after first and goal from the 1.

[HughJasole]

Jalen Hurts isn't good. And Bears are better with Keenum than Caleb Williams.

I said what I said.

Dak Prescott era needs to be over after this year.

Have you looked at his contract?  His era is over only if he gets hit by a train. He cannot be traded.  A no trade clause plus a
Cowboys would eat most of his contract. 

Unfortunately his days on the roster will soon be lengthened.  He has a 27 cap hit of $76 mil and 28 cap hit of $87 mil. Then three void years he still counts.  His agent will want a raise to trend but they have little choice unless they just release him and eat it, be terrible with a shit roster, and get high pick for a qb.  There is no simple solution.

Dak's contract is what's killing the team.  It limits the players affordable at other positions and kills depth.  And he is not the guy to will a team to win.  He is not Roger, or Troy or even Romo. Under pressure he sucks rather than thrives. 

[Cornhogio]

That's some Sexton level shit there.

Todd France by the way.

People were drinking the kool-aid on him for a while but then he didn't really get any better arguably he got worse when the new contract kicked in. The Russ Wilson's and Dak's of the world are only good when they had really good guys around them and they were a cheap date. At least Russ won a ring like that. 

It's probably not a real good comparison but Dak is like the modern day Quincy Carter that everyone thought was gonna be the shit, but the guy couldn't spell his own name and Tony Romo beat him out and I believe the guy that played baseball and football at Michigan. Dak came in with low expectations and out of necessity became very serviceable but that can only get you so far. Last night watching Case Keenum I'm just amazed the guy hasn't landed a full time starting gig anywhere but I guess he's just one of those guys that will wow you now and then and then give you a lot of WTF. Mariotta is the same way.

[HughJasole]

Dak literally peaked his rookie year. Came in when Romo got hurt preseason and balled out, went 13-3, went toe-to-toe with ARod in the divisional round and lost at the buzzer.

Had a pretty decent third year, won a playoff game over the Seahawks. He puts up numbers and can be really good in spurts but when you have a situation or game where you need him to perform, he chokes.

2-5 playoff record, and the one I'm reminded of the most is the wild card game against San Francisco when he slid down and cost them the game.

[Texzilla]

Dak had had two issues.  One is coaching.  He was mentored by Jason Garrett, Scott Linehan, and Kellen Moore for most of his career.  All three career backups that rarely played if at all.  They taught him to play like a backup, rarely taking risks.  In the nfl a top qb knows how to place a ball where his wr can go get it, draw a PI, or knock it down.  Dak won't look there if there's any coverage.  His best years were when his qb coach was Jon Kitna; McCarthy didn't even interview him. 

2nd is his mental health.  He's a good student of the game, works hard, leads the team.  But... his mental strength is not right.  It goes back to the death of his mother and brother's suicide.  His mental game collapses in pressure hence he sucks in playoff games.  He's cannot put a team on his shoulders and will it to win like Roger or Troy, or even Romo or Danny white. 

But he won't reduce that contract to afford a better team.

Well fuck. Can't hire him.

[BASS]

As Vince Lombardi would say concerning these Browns uniforms, "what the hell is going on around here?"

my kids all thought that was cool. I've played Minecraft with all three of them many times. Just not a fun game. When one was in Cub scouts and I was pack master, one of our weekend campouts was Minecraft themed. I dressed up like a creeper in a costume I made out of cardboard boxes and spray paint. You don't appreciate those moments enough when they happen.

[animal]

I just feels really weird seeing the Browns wearing...brown. 

[Show-Me Hog]

As a Pittsburgh Steelers fan, I can officially say that Aaron Rodgers sucks. Getting an old, broken down quarterback is never the answer for a mid team.

Paired with a coach that previously got fired for failing to make the Playoffs with Rodgers in his prime.

[dhog]

Rodgers can't get out of his own way any more.
