the guy making GBS threads on the Niners for re-signing Kilgore then getting Richburg AND trading Kilgore has no idea what he's talking about. The Niners paid Kilgore nothing, and his cap hit is nothing (because his pay was set to be paid & dispersed after they traded him) and ensured they had a starting C in case they struck out on Richburg.

It was really a smart move

It's kind of funny, because the reason TO isn't going is the same reason they didn't want to put him in in the first place.

When they were debating on putting him in, writers talked to a bunch of his old teammates and couldn't find anyone who said anything positive about the guy.

TO isn't going to the HoF induction because none of his old teammates want to go induct him.

So it has nothing to do with him being snubbed repeatedly? I thought he had beef with the committee?

They're just one and the same really. The reason he was snubbed is because the way the debate works is the writers talk to ex-teammates and coaches about guys and use that to build the narrative they want to argue about. Per Peter King on one of the SI podcasts, the voices for TO were mute.

Ahhhhhhhhhh I see. Still incredibly dumb and to your point...one in the same...neither should have anything to do with induction into the hall. Why these guys don't just judge on merit and on field production will always baffle me. Who care if anyone liked him or not?

The way peter king put it: Look at how much they talk up leadership and going the extra mile and all that. Off the field stuff doesn't count, but locker room stuff does, and TO was widely considered a cancer.

Locker room stuff has nothing to do with on field stuff though gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. TO was one of the most dominant at his position ever, it shouldn't even been a factor. Not directed at you, I'm just reminded of how stupid these people are and it frustrates me.

I liked how Rice finally retired after being clowned on by dante hall in the preseason.

Hall checked him at the line, threw him back like five feet, then intercepted the inexplicably thrown smoke route and housed it.

Rice was like "yeah gently caress this bye"

Then Hall went on all the Atlanta radio stations bragging about how he'd forced the greatest WR ever to retire.

Dante Hall was the Chiefs returner.

Green Bay for sure. Fiz has also been making GBS threads on the Panthers all offseason saying how bad they are going to be so lol

I would say Green Bay for sure. New Orleans and Atlanta have a ton of solid and young talent that should set up well for the future. Philly has to be in the mix as well, along with LA.

What does that have to do with anything?

Panthers have been one of the most consistent teams in the NFC since 2013. They only missed the playoffs once and went to the super bowl. They're doing this playing in the hardest or second hardest division in the NFL.

Teams will have a whole offseason to look at what Philly did and figure out how to stop it.

You have been complaining about how bad they are going to be, how old the defense is, how the drafting hasn't been good. All pretty big red flags for future consistency and success which is what the question was...no?

Then I misread the question. Panthers had been right there with the Seahawks during their run or whatever.

There's still enough on the Panthers to poo poo out 9-10 wins, but they're old and injury prone.

Of course everything could line up and they could make another super bowl run who knows.

For sure, agree with you on the past. Panthers have been consistently great.

Hell, maybe I misread the question...but I was more thinking of now and future greatness not past?

It also wouldn't shock me to see the Panthers in the Playoffs yet again this year.

It was negotiated. Jameis gets three games, agrees to not appeal or go to court.

Edit: also a good idea by Winston, his salary is only 700k this year where as next year it balloons. Better to lose 3 checks at a lower rate than appeal, delay, sue and end up getting docked 6 at a couple million each.
