They were already drafting like 10th, and now are like 13th. No one's sucking rear end enough to get into the top 6 this year.

Meh I’m happy seeing genuine development from young guys like Drake, Howard, Phillips and Grant. Parker showed even when we’re rolling he just isn’t going to shine. Parker’s gone likely after 2018.

What did NE get for Jimmy G? Whatever it was, they probably should've kept him around. That's just showing an absurd amount of faith in your amazing but nearly elderly quarterback. Suddenly the 49ers look like spoilers and the whole team has life. Then again for the 49ers probably the best place to go for a decent starting quarterback is a second string who is forced to play behind Brady.

Suddenly the 49ers look like spoilers and the whole team has life. A 2nd. They wanted a long term deal to keep Jimmy around while Brady finished up but Jimmy, understandably, wanted to be a real starter and wanted real starter money. So knowing they weren't going to be able to work out a long team deal after this season, and he'd be a free agent, they just traded him for what they could get at the deadline. With every game Jimmy wins that pick gets worse. Impossibly Perfect Sphere fucked around with this message at 16:02 on Dec 13, 2017 |

Jimmy will be tagged twice then go back to NE and play for 15mm a year after collecting $50mm from San Fran (and a 2nd round pick)

XxGirlKisserxX posted:i see the Dolphins are doing their annual late season heroics thing to gently caress up their draft position No, no, I see from the Andy Cohen that "Dolphins Now Right Back In It!" Sure, they have to win out, and other teams have to crap themselves, but this is it! Of course, the same article says, "Adam Gase has been waiting all season to unleash Grant in the passing game..." Who comes up with crap like that? The fins have looked good on play calling on offense and making fewer mental errors on defense the last two weeks. This is the team I thought they'd be this season. Fewer penalties, fewer missed assignments, and not quite so many passes of -2 to 2 yards. 538 has a good statistical look at the trend in the NFL towards passing at the line of scrimmage and how it sucks. https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/nfl-quarterbacks-are-leaning-on-the-short-pass-and-its-not-working/

But, still, better play calling, better execution, so better team. Just not playoffs yet.

Amy Pole Her posted:Landry has been super quiet. I hear he’s unwilling to give a discount, and he’s wanting 5/75. I think they gotta pay Landry. But if that's the price, with the cap room the Dolphins don't have, it won't happen. Well, they could drop Tannehill or Suh I guess, but now we're in fantasy land.

I’m not arguing that the Dolphins are a competent team, but it shouldn’t have been that close. Grant dropped a TD and Julius Thomas dropped/didn’t come up with some long gainers. The game wasn’t as close as the score. As far as the Dolphins playoff chances: The only real hurdle is beating the Chiefs at Arrowhead. They CAN beat the Nathan Peterman lead Bills (not to say they will) twice, and I would bet a lot of money Tennessee will be losing at least 2 out of their next 3) @San Fran, home for The Rams and Jaguars. The Titans kind of suck. But we aren’t beating the Chiefs on the road so it’s all academic.

There’s a significant chance that Brady will retire with only @ Miami being under .500 for his career. And that...... is the only thing I have to hang my hat on in the last 20 years.

So i'm sure the Jets are going to use keeping this game close, another game they should have won that they lost, as another reason to bring back Bowles.

Cutler on hurry up was the most maddening sight. The play calling was designed to use as much clock for as little yardage as possible, too. Last week's offensive play calling was ditched. I think they figured that it was so successful people would expect it, so they went back to play calling that failed to fool everyone.

Every outside run the Dolphins try is an immediate 3 yard loss AT BEST but that doesn’t stop Gase from trying them every other first down and just immediately killing the drive.
