  1. How is a 20-year-old Rule 5 eligible? Was he signed at 15? He turns 21 in April. He was signed in 2017. He only played in games in 2018 and 2019, but I'm assuming 2017 and 2020 count, which makes this year his fifth, which means he's rule 5 eligible in December.
  2. Is this a guy that you have to worry about being taken? He hasn't even debuted in the states yet and I doubt he has a single bit of speed or defensive value (making him easier for someone to stash).
  3. I used my in-laws mediacom login all last season with no problems
  4. Fake or stage names are entirely different though. Nobody's getting worked up; it's the offseason on a Baseball board and he's a new announcer...who wants people to call him "Boog". Isn't boog his baseball stage name essentially? How do chipper jones or the original boog refer to themselves? Does sciambi introduce himself as boog in non baseball settings? Who cares
  5. If super bowl contention and some other connection are the qualifiers, you gotta add Green Bay to the list. Don't think they can afford him at his market value though. I think the Steelers are in a pretty bad place regarding the cap as well.
  6. Looking forward to Watson losing the camp battle to Foles this summer while Pace is on the hot seat. Ok, so, they've traded for Watson, how about letting Robinson walk and signing Allen Lazard? Lazard' an Allen Robinson' type with a much smaller price tag, could form a decent WR duo with Mooney. Lazard is an exclusive rights free agent, which means he is like a pre arb baseball player, where his team can offer him league minimum and he has no choice but to accept it.
  7. Coinciding your tank with a work storage is the new market inefficiency
  8. You need to start with owners that actually like baseball though
  9. As a Packers fan, I wanted them to kick the fg. I just thought they had a better chance to stop them and score than get the td and the 2 point conversion, and then still having to stop them from driving and kicking a fg to win.
  10. Good, give 'em hell.
  11. I'm an idiot and this may be wrong, but does this make any sense? A defensive head coach usually means a coordinator is the architect of the team's offense. And if that team is successful, it probably means they have a good qb and the offense is successful, because offense is just more important these days (I think). Which means that coordinator won't last before being hired to a head coaching job. Which means you need to bring in a new offensive coordinator with his own new offense. The reverse isn't as damaging to consistency, because who cares about defense. Basically, QB is by far the most important position, therefore offense is more important, therefore you want an offensive head coach? Obviously being a good coach is more important, but you don't really know that ahead of time. Like I said, I'm dumb and maybe this is dumb - feel free to let me know.
  12. 13-3 is definitely not happening next year. Have any of you looked at the North's schedule next year? AFC North and NFC West
  13. Doesn't "bad in interviews" probably mean "black in interviews"?
  14. It looked stupid in hindsight, but that doesn't necessarily mean that it was a stupid call or that those passes are bad plays. Getting the ball to a quick player in space with a pretty high percentage throw can sometimes lead to big gains! Just like all plays there is a cost/benefit calculation and you seem to be ignoring the benefit side of things. *I personally hate the play too, but I also generally trust the people that design NFL offenses more than my dumb, emotional fan brain
  15. Teams should just stop passing then - no interceptions at all!
  16. Then why doesn't it happen very often?
  17. Was the amos hit dirty? A lot of people seemed mad at him for... playing football.
  18. Hahahahaha KARMA BITCH Karma for what? Did he cause someone else to tear their ACL? Or are you talking about him doing the same thing that every single offensive lineman does in every single play? Weird take.
  19. Is Molson Coors getting a free minute or are we doing the new year countdown a minute later this year?
  20. Was backtobanks gone for a while? Or was he just not so annoying all over the place, like he suddenly seems to be?
  21. Preciado and Mena were part of the same international class as Quintero and Made, but were ranked a bit behind them both. Preciado's signing bonus was about the same as Made's and significantly less than Quintero's. Now, after playing very little baseball, the Padres duo seem to be ranked ahead of the Cubs. Can someone explain this to me? Is it possible for scouting opinions to change so much without games being played?
  22. I was intrigued by campusano. What is the point of having Wil Myers and Zach Davies as important pieces? Yuck. The prospects better be good.
  23. I'm up by about 65 and my opponent only has Josh Allen left (I'm done), so I'm looking pretty good to go to the championship. Feels great after starting 1-5. I will most likely be playing my dad in the championship game next week. I'm nervous about the chiefs resting their starters (I have Hill and kelce).
  24. Stupid Brees, ruining Kamara's value...
  25. Yeah I was kind of surprised too. She had no depth - was starting Mike Davis, Darius Slayton and Sammy watkins at the time. Timing was perfect with McCaffrey expected back, Odell and Tonyan having 3 TD games the week before and Mostert appearing to come back strong. Good luck in the playoffs!
