If the NFL had a decent commissioner we'd also still have real musicians performing at games...

And about a month ago was the Bal v Cin game (35-34) where Chase went for 260+ and 3 tds. There's been a lot of great Thursday night games this year.

Let’s go Bills!

Close game...

These players dropping the ball at the Goal line is getting kind of silly.

The Eagles bullied the Steelers in the Second Half.
Steelers only have two possessions.

Those games last night were bad.

It's a real shame about the Lions injuries piling up.

From a 49ers fan to Lions fans…..’Welcome to the club!”

We’ve been dealing with this shiiii..stuff for years.

The Falcons have a very expensive bench warmer.

As a Viking fan I find it hilarious especially knowing that the Falcons were disciplined for tampering for trying to get Cousins.

[El Rey]

from what I was reading, it will be expensive but the way the Falcons front loaded his contract they can get out from under it.

Were Cousins traded at the start of the 2025 league year, another team would take on his $27.5 million in base salary, and the Falcons would take only $37.5 million in total dead cap (all in 2025) as opposed to the $65 million they'd otherwise take over two years. It's certainly the preferable outcome for the Falcons' checkbook, and I'd imagine they'd trade Cousins for meager draft capital accordingly.

At a cheap price (Day 3 pick), there will certainly be suitors. The Jets, Giants, Titans and Raiders will all need a quarterback next year, and the Panthers, Colts and Steelers could be on that list, as well.

[rick88]

We don't want him in Pittsburgh.

[El Rey]

I think PIT is content with what they are getting from Russ, I would assume he'll sign a short term, team friendly contract.
seems like a Raiders move though but maybe being a minority owner Brady will have some input on the position.
Bryce was playing better, not sure CAR is going to give up in the off season unless they can make a considerable upgrade, which at this point I am not sure signing Cousins would be.
Richardson seems like a bust at this point.
hard to see NYJ going for another year with Rodgers; NYG and TEN need someone, anyone at this point and from all accounts its a pretty QB-light draft class.
