  1. I’d assume it still is otherwise wouldn’t they be forfeiting rights to all historic data and media containing the name?
  2. I think the fact he's signing to his third team and receiving yet another big payday paints him as a detached mercenary, add on top of that the stark inequivalence between his performance and expectations of him as manifested by his compensation, and it paints him as a detached mercenary who doesn't produce.
  3. I wonder what the G men will do for QB, now that the FA market is not a solution and it’ll seem unlikely that can trade up to secure a top 3 rookie. Wait until next year and ride with Jones for one more season, or trade draft capital for a legit vet?
  4. Society issues a greater allowance for greed to barons and elites since, as personifications of greed, they're entitled to behave in accordance with their nature.
  5. I think we deserve some credit for molding him into a pragmatic, cynical businessman early on in his career. There were no NFL fairytales around here. Playing for slimeballs like Bruce and Snyder taught him quickly.
  6. I think we need Sam this year, to help bring the rookie QB along through competition and collaboration. Plus we could get more for Howell next season. If he's put in a few games to spell the rookie (e.g., big lead, or injury) and he exhibits flashes of brilliance in this offense - maybe win us a couple of game - his stock will rise. I just think it's a short-sighted move to let him go this season for what arguably could be chump change.
  7. Running for one's life every passing down adds excitement in an otherwise stationary position, and if we can somehow incorporate that language as a positive in the job description I'm sure candidates will look at the scenario differently.
  8. I maintain EB and Snyder struck a secret deal to make him HC if Ron botched the season or “retired.” He didn’t expect to see his benefactor and co-conspirator get exiled from the NFL.
  9. I agree about Quinn. Peters...it'll depend on the composite and value of the roster. If he nails everything but the QB (which is the hardest position to nail), I can see Harris giving him another shot, even after he reached for the one.
  10. I would say no. He could help bring up the new #1 and whatever experience he can share with the starter would be worth more than a 4th rounder. Plus we need a quality backup. Also, if he spells the QB in a few games this season and plays well, his value would increase next year for QB-starved teams.
  11. Cousins might want to go to a competitive team with a shot at the title, as it would most likely be his last rodeo (at least as a starter). He had his shot in Minnesota with Diggs and Thielen at their prime, and a strong running game, but he squandered that golden opportunity and I’m not convinced he’ll find another like that.
  12. Andy learned from the Philly experience not to hitch your future on an average QB. Had he moved on from McNabb a lot sooner, I think he would have won a chip or two for that town.
  13. Valid concerns. I wonder if the age factor can be mitigated as he develops more and more into a traditional pocket passer, less reliant on his scrambling ability.
  14. Bears only have the leverage if you allow them to have the leverage. They’d love nothing more than to trade down to #2, get their guy anyway, and have an additional high round pick in 2025. They would have fleeced Snyder. Let’s just stick with #2, let some other team mortgage their future to Chicago like Carolina did. If we can’t train up Drake or JD to be the franchise QB we need, then we don’t have the right coaches in the building.
