That seems like it'd have to be a pretty good trade offer to give up a talented player (no matter how malcontent) on a cheap contract.

I rarely partake of sports talk these days but caught Kietzman's ridiculous diatribe about this yesterday afternoon. He apparently thinks the Chiefs should be hiring private investigators to follow Peters, Kelce and Hill around.

Quick reads: http://www.footballoutsiders.com/quick-reads/2017/week-7-quick-reads

This is a good week for comments

22. Mitchell Trubisky - OK, here we go. This game was so weird it literally broke our system. Our parser actually missed Trubisky's game on it's first run-through because, while he had 11 dropbacks, he only threw seven passes. The Bears have now won two games in eight days with 10 or fewer completions in each win. You have to go back to the 2012 Bills to find a team that had two or more such wins in an entire season. Five teams since 2006 have gone an entire game with fewer than 10 passes. All five won. Three of them were coached by John Fox. Only two of Trubisky's completions were even successful plays: a 24-yard completion to Zach Miller and a 70-yard completion to Tarik Cohen. His other nine plays had a net loss of 9 yards. His median gain was zero yards. Only two of his attempts came on first down, though one was the 70-yarder, so clearly he benefited from the element of surprise. He had three plays on Carolina's side of the 50: a 5-yard gain on second-and-15 and two sacks. He threw one pass to a wide receiver, an 8-yard gain on third-and-13 to someone named Tanner Gentry, who sounds more like the opening act at the Grand Ole Opry than an NFL wideout. As discussed at length in the essay and comments of Derrik Klassen's Film Room piece last week, Trubisky almost literally can not throw to his left. He was 0-for-2 throwing to his left against Carolina, and is now 3-of-11 for 27 yards when throwing to his left this year. I wrote 70 words about Trubisky for every pass he completed this week.

27. Jacoby Brissett - (The following all-sack Quick Reads comment has been brought to you by the Jacksonville Jaguars defense.) The Jaguars sacked Brisset six times on first down, twice on second down, and twice on third down. They sacked him once in the red zone, twice in the front zone, five times between the 40s, and twice inside the Indianapolis 40. They did not sack him in the first quarter, but they had three in the second, three in the third, and four in the fourth. Brissett was sacked more times in this game than Jameis Winston, Dak Prescott, or Drew Brees have been sacked all season. (This comment has been brought to you by the Jacksonville Jaguars defense.)

32. Drew Stanton - Stanton entered the game with Arizona down 13-0 in the second quarter, so this next comment is not totally fair, but still: Stanton did not throw for a first down until his last pass of the third quarter, by which point the Cardinals were down 26-0. Stanton only threw for two first downs in this game, on gains of 25 and 23 yards. That means his other 14 dropbacks (including two sacks) gained only 6 yards. On the Rams' half of the field, he went 0-for-4 with a sack.

33. Trevor Siemian - How to Get Your Team Shut Out, by Trevor Siemian: Inside the Chargers' 40, Siemian went 5-of-7 for 38 yards (a total that is skewed by a 17-yard gain on fourth-and-26) with three sacks, two fumbles, and an interception. On third downs, he went 6-of-9 for 59 yards with a sack-fumble and only two conversions. He also had another fourth-down play; it was intercepted. He finished with 13 failed completions for 69 yards, both the highest marks of any quarterback this week. Deshaun Watson has only gained 66 yards on failed completions this season.

The Ravens are the worst organization in the NFL right now. Thanks to Harbaugh mainly but there are other factors. He should have been fired immediately after the Superbowl win. Then we could have brought in a great coach who would want to coach a "Superbowl team".

I don't think firing a Super Bowl winning coach immediately after winning the Super Bowl is the sort of move that endears you to the sort of coach you're looking for.

I'm not so sure about that. Because it lets another coach know that their performance isn't going to be solely about wins and losses. We won that Superbowl despite Harbaugh's best efforts, and only after a portion of the players openly rebelled against him and forced out "his guy". It sends the message coach competently and use the players properly or you're outta there.

John Harbaugh is a worse coach than Billick was, and Billick was pretty bad at times. Harbaugh has no idea what he's doing. I feel sorry for the team who ends up with this dope after my team is done with him. He brings absolutely nothing to the table and is nothing but Bisciotti's corporate kiss-rear end. The 2010-12 Ravens could have won the SB all three years or at least 2/3.

Again this year the Ravens have real solid talent on defense. But we're a bad unit. Why? Because Harbaugh has insisted on keeping "his guy" dean pees in charge even though he's shown he can't run a defense worth crap!

I don't understand what you're saying here, sorry.

I do realize that statement sounds ridiculous, but if you know the context of what I'm saying with how the 2012 Ravens were, it's a little more understandable. The Ravens almost missed the playoffs that year due to Cameron and we pretty much wasted Boldin's entire time here aside from that small period at the end. TJ Houshmandzadeh was also a guy who would just come out and say how badly the Ravens ran things and the team gave him hell for it. But he just said "yeah this offensive system is god drat stupid" more or less.

Oh those. Yeah they're bad. Again I often say stuff like "Dean Pees is the worst DC in the history of the NFL", it mostly is just my way of saying he sucks and I hate him, obviously I can't put out a legitimate argument regarding that. Same thing with the "we're the worst organization". I also used to call the Ravens the dumbest team in the NFL. I have no way of measuring or proving that I just said it when they made a bunch of dumb penalties. Sorry for the confusion.
