I know it's been discussed a hundred times on here and we all agree but man poor to middle class conservative white folks complaining about "greedy millionaires" and then siding with their white billionaire bosses sure is something.

It’s an amazing trick played by sports owners made all the easier because there are only 31 owners but thousands of players so there’s always some dumb soundbite you can cherry-pick from a player or two during a labor stoppage while usually the far fewer owners all shut up.

Pretty sure I'm in favor of anything Brady is against, but especially so when it's something that makes the game less mechanical and predictable for old man QBs

They just made some room with Andrews' deal. Not sure if it's enough. There's still a few restructuring candidates like Humphrey and Tucker. Not sure if Murray is worth it.

Having watched a bunch of Saints games last year, Murray looked like an absolutely average back. Just A Guy.

it's very funny how brady complains about something every year and then beats the poo poo out of everybody and ppl act like he's just a crybaby who's looking for excuses, for the last 15 years or however long it's been notable that he doesn't like some new thing. Cincinnati Bengals 10-7

On paper the Bengals line looked serviceable in preseason but on paper you can't see that they held the ball for .001 seconds and 2 sacks were nullified by roughing penalties. I'm worried about the interior.

Not like he's actually suddenly worse than Villenueva but OBJ wasn't really great at RT to begin the season either. He started getting more solid games in and then it wasn't until after the swap to LT that he looked really good. Yanda retiring and Skura regressing really killed that right side of the line. Also these grapes are absolutely way too sour for me to even bother with.

Anytime you can bring in a 35 year old WR for a team that would be lucky to win 3 games, you do it.

Hey Houston, you can sign me for just one million bucks. I'll give you about the same amount of production but be much much cheaper.
