Thankful to hear this

#

I’m just tired of the actual team

#

I’m so happy this is the final fucking year

#

We’re not winning a cup with these guys

dim kettle
#

It's the NY media and fans. I question how many of them actually watch the Rangers first and not the Knicks/Yankees, etc

robust grotto
#

Mfers acting like he’s not the best player

#

I love Panarin but we can’t act like he’s been this savior

dim ledge
#

The only team in NYC with less active fans/people who know the ins and outs are the Islanders

robust grotto
#

Irrelevant as hell

dim ledge
#

People just don't know/care about hockey, and that's fine

#

But those same voices pretending to understand is funny

dim kettle
#

They went to the third round 2 years in a row and the team now is overrated Barzal and a bunch of former NJ Devils.

robust grotto
#

Incredible really

dim kettle
#

It's understandable why no one talks about them. Last time they were put in the spotlight, they blew a 3-goal lead to the Rangers at Metlife.

#

Lemme check bc I don’t wanna ask for like, ridiculous assets for a dude who may not even play this year

#

Shit I’ll take Barkley

@dim ledge hey

Because Barkley is the best running back in fantasy right now

I think my RB room can float me over until cmc returns but

Why are they leaking it like this

#

I don't remember gase or any other head coach firing getting this

rustic ore
#

Yeah they even made note on the radio that Gase wasn’t escorted out when he was fired

#

Also wording wise I’d guess because drama sells

smoky fable
#

You honestly should to be honest

With the baggage he brought

Not just this season but I mean in general as a player

#

Very excited for him to come back this week

Yep

With all the studs they produce

Brian Thomas Jr has impressed me a ton this year as a rookie too. Thought it would take longer

Perfect

#

True

#

If I’m the niners I’m calling Saleh back for DC

#

Or the eagles

hasty mesa
#

You know what’s funny

#

Daboll and prime time Dimes have a shot to completely toast this Bengals organization lol

#

If they come out here and ball, what does that say about Cincinnati?

#

Is someone getting fired? Idk

smoky fable
#

They just sell off players at 1-5

smoky fable
#

Don’t think it would happen from the perspective of both sides

hasty mesa
#

Unfortunately even if we beat Bengals more attention will be on Bengals being bad than Giants being good

#

The only way people will talk about Giants is if we win the next two in a row, Bengals and Eagles

#

Which is a long shot

smoky fable
#

Everyone does say the bengals defense is terrible

#

But if your defense shuts down the bengals offense

hasty mesa
#

But I’ll say this now, if Giants beat Bengals and Eagles I’m calling for the playoffs

smoky fable
#

That’s eye opening

hasty mesa
#

SNF in MetLife with that Dline?

#

Better get that ball out quick

smoky fable
#

I just worry about Banks covering Chase

#

Lamb cooked him

hasty mesa
smoky fable
#

Don’t know who your second CB is on Higgins

hasty mesa
#

Is Higgins slot?

rustic mountain
hasty mesa
#

I was intrigued seeing Browns

#

Now I’m like ok now I like what I see vs Seahawks

smoky fable
hasty mesa
#

Turns out Vikings are a real football team

smoky fable
#

Think the tight end or another receiver is the slot

hasty mesa
smoky fable
#

But haven’t seen the snap counts for the alignments

hasty mesa
smoky fable

#

So it’ll be the Chase and Higgins show but let’s see

smoky fable
#

Has Nubin improved or nah?

hasty mesa
#

Nubin is good

smoky fable
#

Still remember him taking that bad angle on that Lamb td

hasty mesa
#

We’re waiting for his ball hawking to show up in the NFL rn

smoky fable
#

After he beat Banks

hasty mesa
#

That’s the next step

hasty mesa
#

Overall he’s been solid

#

Dru Phillips def better though

#

How good is Bengals secondary?

#

Who’s on Nabers

smoky fable
#

They utilize him so much

#

He’ll see Cam Taylor Britt

hasty mesa
smoky fable
#

Probably

#

They’ll have Wandale be the PPR scam

smoky fable

But you can’t underestimate Lou Anaurumo

I hope you survive the line Drake

smoky fable

Tough defense too

smoky fable
#

Sink or swim

rustic mountain
#

Eh

#

All defenses are wolves to us rn

dim kettle
#

You gotta see if he can show signs he can be that dude or not.

rustic mountain
#

Yes because there's no way any external factors at all would marr those signs at all

#

None whatsoever

dim kettle
#

If you think he shouldn't be put in until he's put in a perfect spot. Sad to say you'd be waiting a long time. You were picking 3rd overall for a reason

rustic mountain
#

Not saying that

dim kettle
#

IDK how Stroud or Jayden Daniels have survived on suppose bad teams

smoky fable
#

So essentially phasing out Hackett regardless

rustic mountain
#

I am saying that seeing if he is that dude or not is kinda hard to say because it's not like Drake has exactly the best shit around him. I am not saying good things can't be seen

robust grotto

But maybe nuance is justified here

Look. Your take is black and white and doesn't allow for any kind of nuance at all.

dim kettle
#

Nuance? You mean excuses?

rustic mountain
#

Whatever man

#

You've made it clear what your opinion is. I just don't agree with it

celest zephyr
dim kettle
#

You just have to look at his draft mate Jayden Daniels and last year's second overall pick CJ Stroud. They didn't need to sit on the bench in front of a crappy QB.

celest zephyr
#

Lool wtf , the disrespect. They pushed this nigga out like he robbed the team store

dim kettle
#

They didn't do this with Adam Gase. That's the cherry on top

Gase chased himself out looking for the flying taco

Can't wait to hear Tomorrows propaganda cast from Aaron

dim kettle
#

Greg Williams full-on blitz with the game on the line. Truly amazing stuff it was. Gase should've gotten a lifetime contract.

hasty mesa
#

He has the whole season ahead to get experience

dim kettle
#

They have to see what they got and then build around him

celest zephyr
smoky fable

@rustic ore

#

He’s available

#

But I think you need better options than him or Britt

You and I both know that was far from the only issue there

robust grotto

you can’t persuade me that bringing in Rodgers was the wrong move

#

Their options were Carr or Rodgers

short flame
#

Sabres was 4 not 3

dim ledge
#

Bringing Rodgers in may not be the wrong move per se

robust grotto
#

You can persuade me that Rodgers has too much pull but as a player he was the right person to bring in

dim ledge
#

Neither was psg buying mbappe

#

The problem is how much they're riding with him

#

And how much stock they're putting in

#

And what they're allowing him to do as a player

robust grotto
#

These are what desperate clubs do ultimately

dim ledge
#

What control he gets

robust grotto
#

And it shows man, smh

#

Right I can see that

#

And Woody is a bitch owner who is too invested in headlines

#

Hence the constant uniform change… “jet life stadium” etc etc

#

An owner so desperate that he brings a guy that demanded the world, so naturally woody gave that power away

weak gull
#

Low key

#

Jet life stadium cold😂

dim ledge
#

Idk man. I've seen this all before, you know?

#

This has so far only had one outcome

robust grotto
#

But you have to see it from a jets angle

#

You see it from a functional, well grounded angle

robust grotto
#

These guys have failed on qb after qb and HC after HC and GM after GM

#

The roster was too talented to go young QB Again

weak gull
#

Who was large and in charge when Rex was coach

robust grotto
#

Rex

#

Idzik was the GM I wanna say

#

Feels like forever ago

weak gull
#

I miss the days of sexy rexy

He was a good ass coach, they just never hit on qb so the style never really changed

dim kettle
robust grotto
#

Mike Tannenbaum yeah

#

Easy to forget ngl

weak gull
#

Which was partially on him, but not all on him imo

Only so much you can do with fucking mark Sanchez

robust grotto

But Rex was the man for sure

Rodgers in his twilight is still better than any jets qb in...god knows

#

But what's being sacrificed/put at risk for that has nasty implications not terribly far down the road

smoky fable
#

Talking about the position

smoky fable
#

In the present

dim ledge
#

I did too and I was far more adamant than most

dim kettle
weak gull
#

A big issue is Rodgers did look to step back a bit in last year in GB

But if you watch, with the Achilles injury, he’s also now lost that mobility he had. Which was a big thing for him even going back to his prime

dim ledge
#

Can he even get out of the pocket now?

robust grotto
#

The same owner that was pissed he was unable to find land in NYC and since he put more into the MetLife, the giants are not allowed to put up championship banners at the stadium

smoky fable
smoky fable
#

Didn’t know

robust grotto
#

It impacted every single thing

smoky fable
robust grotto
weak gull
#

Pretty much. Even the semi- average Rodgers we saw to end in GB would have sufficed last year

robust grotto
#

I have no clue

robust grotto
#

On paper, Rodgers was the right move. The baggage was worth it

robust grotto
#

This franchise has done NOTHING FOR 10+ years, it was worth a gamble

dim ledge
#

But I'm just not as okay with accepting that baggage

smoky fable
robust grotto
#

And it just didn’t work out, that’s the bottom line

smoky fable
#

He should be gone and was equally responsible

robust grotto
dim ledge
#

At the least

#

You're with me on Adams

robust grotto
#

Oh absolutely lmao

#

Fuck that

#

They can’t give up on this season .. 2-3 is salvageable. But Rodgers is clearly compromised and Adams won’t ever change that. He will become another headache

smoky fable
robust grotto
#

It’s corny to say but it’s just the players at this point. Obv Hackett is ass but it’s no real excuse for the players to also stink

dim ledge
#

The issue is Woody has no balls

robust grotto
#

And that’s why I was happy Balkan

#

Because for at least one moment… he had balls this morning and did something he would normally never fucking do

#

9.5/10 times this move won’t work, but he had to try

dim ledge
#

You look at SF and how the Aiyuk deal went down, nothing but chaos and rumours swirling, knife to our proverbial throats for the entire off-season

Just for him to capitulate and take the original deal

#

Woody can't handle that pressure

robust grotto
#

That’s the beauty of being a functional franchise

#

Woody literally gets on his knees for a big player to sign here

#

It’s comical

Right now with Vegas, there is very obvious bias against the A’s specifically

weak gull
#

Fuck Utah

desert palm
#

So it’s pretty obvious that it’s because the fact that the athletics are pretty bad right now and the owner is not good is the reason why they are not keen on the idea

#

However, people in Utah don’t care lol

#

The problem is there's a lot of assuming Stu wouldn't have done something similar to what Oakland did.

desert palm
#

Although to be fair in Utah’s case a baseball team would have to be run by the former jazz owner

#

That is the stipulation part of the $900 million dollars to the ballpark theoretically

#

If Vegas falls through and the athletics can’t do anything in Sacramento then I wouldn’t be surprised if John Fisher sells a majority share at least to that ownership

#

Because as soon as they get the OK for a team, whether it’s expansion or relocation there is nothing stopping construction in Utah. They can get that done immediately.

The fact MLB has allowed this should have Manfred kicked out as commissioner. Just embarrass the league.

i honestly think as much credit as howie roseman gets, The man has given out Terrible QB contracts
thinking like

  1. Mike Vick after 1 good season
  2. Carson
  3. now maybe jaylen hurts
#

thats almost 9 years of bad contracts 🤣

dim kettle
#

Man, if only Wentz didn't get injured late in 2017.

celest zephyr

kind of hesitant with jalen milroe as well just because we have seen what alabama qbs look like in the NFL

#

Howie has a good eye for offensive lineman, ill give him that, and runningbacks

dim kettle
#

I mean, Howie has been able to keep his job for a long time.

#

Not many GMs can say that.

#

NFL stands for Not For Long. For a reason

celest zephyr
#

true but howie has built some sway over the years

#

our GM is pretty good at getting receivers, i would def trade him for Howie. Consider our o line is always avg to below avg

dim kettle
#

You also gotta give him props. Even when he gives out the bad contracts to QBs. He's been able to get out of them and recover somewhat.

#

He should be praised enough for getting out of the hell that was Chip Kelly's reign of terror.

hasty mesa
#

But nooooo Howie is a genius!

celest zephyr
#

qb contracts need a change man

#

tired of this one hit wonders getting bank

hasty mesa
#

Paying someone like, Joe Burrow makes sense

#

Paying Trevor Lawrence?

#

Ehhhhh

celest zephyr
#

trevor lawerence had 1 good season

hasty mesa
#

Yes

celest zephyr
#

and they gave him 55 mill

#

Crazy

hasty mesa
#

Tbh DJ is the same idea but at least it’s 40 mil with an out

#

Not to mention DJ has been better than Trevor so far this season

celest zephyr
#

feel like QBs should make like 30 mill

hasty mesa
#

Like Baker and Geno are making roughly what I value them at

celest zephyr
#

ya, i wonder how Purdy gonna be paid

hasty mesa
#

Purdy is a franchise guy so idc what you pay him

celest zephyr
#

because once he hits a big contract that team will eb dismanteled for sure

hasty mesa
#

His body of work isn’t just one season

#

It’s an NFC Champ appearance as a rookie and a Super Bowl run in year 2

celest zephyr
#

ya thats fair, though i would like to see more. I think because hes winning in the playoffs its def deserved

#

i just keep thinking about last year where they lost their left tackle and CMC and he was awful

#

if they pay him they are def going to lose something like that

dim kettle
hasty mesa
#

Yeah Niners are about to lose their window

#

When? Idk

#

But you see it happening in real time

dim kettle

If they continue drafting well, that window will open sooner than later

i heard on a podcast that post season pay is trash

#

like literally pennies in comparison

hasty mesa
#

Interesting

celest zephyr
#

your post season pay is actually based on NFLPA rates

hasty mesa
#

Pro Bowl bonuses then are where the money is?

#

In terms of incentives

celest zephyr
#

pro bowls are just for negotiation and some players do have incentives

#

but i think it should be more like a Tiered system like an nba max vs super max

hasty mesa
#

Darius Slayton on the Giants for example has a ton of incentives baked in

dim kettle
#

GMs are gonna panic if they don't sign their QB. It's hard enough to find a franchise QB. Ask the Jets, ask the Browns, ask the Broncos.

#

Just nature of the game.

celest zephyr
#

yes but i tihnk there has to be a tipping point because i think if you look at the NFL right now

hasty mesa
celest zephyr
#

unless that QB is literally top 5, the teams with the best run game are winning

celest zephyr
# hasty mesa

those are minuscule in terms of gtds. i think its better if you get a scalled gtd based on your pro bowl maybe in like the last 2 seasons

hasty mesa
#

Slayton might get the 100k bonus on reception and yards

hasty mesa
#

So small amounts

#

Nabers is gonna break our bank lol

#

Idc obviously

#

Giant for life please

celest zephyr
#

ya i just think the salary cap is going way too much into few positions

#

and Mahomes who took a 10 year deal is looking like the Steal of the century

#

he has a good rb, he has a good oline, he has a weapon for a TE

#

they have a good defense

#

all of them are getting equally paid because of that 1 deal

hasty mesa
#

Giants cap hit

#

Dexter Lawrence is a freaking steal man

celest zephyr
#

for sure

hasty mesa
#

We’re eating extra Jones cap this year I see, probably to lessen any dead hit in future seasons

celest zephyr
#

funny hes actually playing ok this year

#

lol just in time for a re up QueenKEKW

hasty mesa
#

Yeah it’s not the end of the world, but 47m is a lot lol

#

Luckily we have a lot of rookies playing well

dim kettle
hasty mesa
#

However I think Schoen’s job is safe

#

If this pace keeps up

celest zephyr
#

do you think it will keep up?

hasty mesa
#

This is his best rookie class by far, he fixed the Oline, and Jones is playing solid

celest zephyr
#

be honest lol

hasty mesa
#

End of year is easier

#

I think we’re trending in the right direction but Bengals game is huge

celest zephyr
#

ya they beat the browns who might have the worst qb in the NFL, seahawks witha. rookie HC

#

acutally not even might

hasty mesa
#

Then we play Eagles the week after

celest zephyr
#

deshaun is the worst QB in the NFL its crazy

hasty mesa
#

Yeah

hasty mesa
celest zephyr
#

DJ best game was def against the seahawks

#

but i want to see his games vs Cowboys, commanders

hasty mesa
#

In my head, if we beat Bengals and Eagles the week after, then I’m ready to say we can make the playoffs

#

He was fine vs those two

celest zephyr
#

hopefully this a bounce back game for us

#

1-4 its not looking good 💀

#

praying for a wildcard spot

hasty mesa
#

Bengals fan?

celest zephyr
#

ya

#

Nice, good luck Sunday

celest zephyr
#

joe is playing so well but our Defense is garbage

hasty mesa
#

Since you have more intimate knowledge

#

Who’s covering Nabers

#

And are you cooked

celest zephyr
#

we are cooked

hasty mesa
#

Shootout game incoming then

dim kettle
#

DJ still has a lot of games where he doesn't throw a TD pass. I say that's more of a reflection of how inconsistent this offense can be in scoring points.

celest zephyr
#

Cam and Dax are injured

#

Geno stone playing like shit

hasty mesa
#

He threw 2 vs Seahawks, none vs Cowboys, and 2 vs Browns and Wash

celest zephyr
#

its a trend

hasty mesa
#

Our red zone is better than years past but

#

We need 30+ to out shoot Burrow probably

celest zephyr
#

i feel pretty comfortable getting into a shootout with the Giants

hasty mesa
#

Yeah

#

This is a test game

celest zephyr
#

i think i am more concerned if your run game goes active

hasty mesa
#

Can we win a shootout game

hasty mesa
#

I expect 50/50 snaps

#

Unless Singletary is still out

celest zephyr
#

i think we can make a comeback, the ravens are tough but the browns are trash and the steelers are starting to falter

hasty mesa
#

Like with Seahawks

#

Keep Burrow off the field

dim kettle
#

It's hard to say what the Bengals do. I'd say fire the GM. But Mike Brown still has the title even though Duke Tobin pretty much does all the work now. You likely have to rebuild the defense through the draft.

celest zephyr
#

i think our GM is good tbh

#

i think the bigger problem is we are in the phase of contract purge

#

we need to sign big players and sadly that means lots of our good players left

dim kettle
#

Yeah. You gotta rebuild mainly through the draft the way the cap is going.

celest zephyr
#

we are really missing bates , he was so good for us

#

Geno is terrible

#

carried by kyle hamilton

Even when the defense was decent. Eli Apple was a top DB on the team. 💀

im not too worried about our corners, we do a good job drafting them

really concerned about Safety and line backer play
