  1. Cool to have the conversation out of our hair right away. There may be shenanigans later with this agent as we saw with Jessie Bates, but whatever. We'll have Tee when it counts. Who knows about a long-term deal, but I am encouraged to think about what the big cap number might mean for the offensive line and defense. Keep reloading before the draft.
  2. I think it's valid. If they continue to emphasize the WR position, they can be the Colts of the '00s (I think Burrow is also more like Manning than often regarded). That's probably a good thing. Still, a more balanced roster with a defense that can stay competitive and an offensive line that keeps Joe healthy will require that money be distributed more broadly. If they make sure they keep Chase and then just draft WRs as effectively as they nearly always have, that should be sufficient to sustain a highly productive offense. The Chiefs are a biased case study because of their strong offensive line, but that's also a method the Bengals could replicate (and improve upon) with Ja'Marr in the fold.
  3. I'd be in favor of moving on from Pollack. Something's gotta give. However, I think the biggest problem is that the NFL's heaviest density of edge rushing talent exists in the same zip code as Joe Burrow (the AFC North and a few other assorted AFC teams). Even average offensive lineman get roasted in four games against Garrett and Watt.
  4. Taylor did it!
  5. All-timer brewing. I guess I won't complain.
  6. Woof.
  7. Purdy's protection isn't holding up anymore.
  8. Hell of a punt though.
  9. SF isn't capitalizing on opportunities.
  10. WR Rice beating the 49ers in the Super Bowl.
  11. Shanahan choke meter going into the red. 10 point lead. Brace for impact.
  12. Chiefs got hosed by a bad intentional grounding call. Ha. Haha. Familiar.
  13. I would also fumble the ball if I knew Taylor was watching my every move.
  14. Not enough Taylor Swift.
  15. Let's go Giant Meteor!
  16. I would be pretty concerned about the defense without Reader, because this team hasn't been great drafting any kinds of DTs since they hit the jackpot on Geno 14 years ago. I might say he's a higher priority (if healthy) for me than Higgins, though I acknowledge his age is a factor to account for.
  17. Apparently the correct answer to Chase vs. Sewell was "yes"
  18. Good to be rid of those purple fucks. Go Lions. Go NFC in the Super Bowl.
  19. GTFO Baltimore
  20. I'm glad it was Callahan and not Anarumo (so far). I know the latter lost some popularity this season, but I still think his mind for scheme is near the top of the league.
  21. If the job goes to Pitcher, I really hope we don't have a Ken Zampese redux situation on our hands.
  22. Lions >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 49ers > Chiefs >>> Ravens
  23. Tied at the half. A Houston win here would be absolutely delicious. I desire it fully, truly, and sexually.
