FizFashizzle posted:Why would you do this to yourself Because every suburbanites answer to "where should I go eat in atlanta?" when someone is in from out of town is the Varsity. We got jokes e: last time I was at the varsity was probably a decade ago when I was meeting a guy I found on Craigslist selling a Zune. He gets out of his car and goes to hand me the Zune to look at and drops it, shattering the screen and popping the back piece off. I just walked away and got an Orange drink thing. Hindsight being 20/20 I'm feeling that was gods way of protecting me from owning a Zune. Joey Freshwater fucked around with this message at 18:17 on Mar 9, 2017 |

He only accounts for like 8% of the Bears total cap. 14.5 is not a lot of money when the cap is 167 million and increasing every year. By comparison of Ryan, Rodgers and Luck, those guys make up 15-16% of their teams total cap. Qb contracts are ridiculous.

Big Mike is a fine enough placeholder until you get a real QB. He won't lose you too many games but man you better have a line, cause he cannot run or even scramble. He's accurate though.

I've been at work all day but apparently the Bucs are going to sign DeSean Jackson? Pretty sweet. He's getting a little long in the tooth for a speedster receiver but hopefully he still has 2-3 years left of his peak.

I just think it's a little ridiculous the way everyone has been making GBS threads all over him like he's the worst QB ever and that the deal he got was some huge mistake. He accounts for so little of the cap because of the increases in yearly numbers. 15m/year isn't the same as it used to be. He was mediocre on some loving awful teams. The kid went through like 3 head coaches and 6 offensive coordinators in 4 years. I just think it's a little premature to call him a bust, or at least go so over the top like people have been doing, but I guess that's how things go here.

If they keep Cooks or get a hell of a deal for him, then I'll be OK with it. They're not going to get a hell of a deal.

I cheered for Giraffe Man when he was with the Bucs, and always thought we had a top 5 backup the past two years, but now he's on another team so I can't exactly say I wish for him to be a superstar. He was fine for the situation he had to deal with, which as you've explained, was extremely lovely, but he's taken 11 real snaps in the past two years and hasn't exactly lit the world on fire in preseason games either so its hard to predict what he's become. People are right to be skeptical.

You seem to be. Everyone else I've read has already written him off and awful and should be removed from the league.

Over 18 career starts TD-INT 30–15 Passing yards: 4,100 Passer rating: 84.6 And that was with some of the worst offensive coordinators ever seen in football. The knock is no one's seen him play real football in 2 years.

I don't even know why I'm even as involved with it as I have been. I don't care what other teams do unless it directly affects the Bucs. Maybe I think he got shafted in Tampa and hope he does well, idk.
