But Lamar won an MVP 4 years ago!!!!!!!!! You have to wonder if Schefter included that part at the end because of all the talk lately about Lamar not having an agent. Normally we don’t care about who the agent is that negotiated the contract, they’re not even part of the story really at all… Read More Jalen Hurts Secures The Bag, Becomes Highest Paid Player in NFL History
It is official! Well, it’s been official for 25 days now, but it is now publicly official… at least I think it is: Lamar really could use a publicist who would’ve been able to edit this statement and make it a bit easier to read and understand, but I’m going to assume he doesn’t have… Read More Lamar Jackson (Tweeted that he) Wants to be Traded (But for Some Reason Waited 25 Days to Make it Public)
By now it’s well-publicized that Lamar Jackson refuses to hire an agent, presumably to save himself the 3% cut an agent takes out of a client’s contract. (NFL agents are not permitted to take more than 3%). Maybe it’s not purely financial; maybe it’s a principle thing–like Lamar feels as if he can negotiate a… Read More I Hate to Say it, But Lamar Jackson is an Idiot For Not Hiring An Agent
We are about a month and a half away from the 2023 NFL Draft, which starts on Thursday April 27 in Kansas City. We’re past the Combine and the predictable explosion of hype over Underwear Olympics Champion Anthony Richardson, and we’ve already seen the Bears trade the #1 pick to the Panthers which means the… Read More The Best Quarterback in the 2023 NFL Draft Is…
From ESPN’s Dianna Russini: I am going to go ahead and assume that during their sit down, Rodgers promised them that he would be willing to play for at least two more seasons. I know the Jets are desperate but I doubt they’re dumb enough to trade for just one season of Aaron Rodgers. I… Read More Report: Jets Optimistic they are “on the brink” of Acquiring Aaron Rodgers Via Trade
So the deadline has arrived today, March 7. The Ravens and Lamar Jackson were unable to reach an agreement on a long term contract, and so the Ravens have placed the “nonexclusive” franchise tag on him, which is valued at $32 million a year. Of course, nobody really believes Lamar is going to play on… Read More I Wouldn’t Give Lamar Jackson the Contract He’s Asking For
Now that we are in combine/draft season, I have started thinking about the whole process and how difficult it is to draft quality players consistently. No position is more important than quarterback, and yet no position is more difficult to get right. There are teams like the Browns, Bears and Jets who have been searching… Read More If you want a franchise QB, you had better have a very high draft pick
In 15 years, people won’t talk about this call when they bring up this Super Bowl. But they should. It just feels like the Chiefs always get the calls in those “you just can’t throw a flag there, in that moment” moments. It was ticky-tack, weak, soft, bullshit, rigged–whatever you want to call it. It… Read More Worst Flag in Super Bowl History Ruins Otherwise Classic Showdown
I want to pick the Eagles. They have a stupidly great roster and have the ability to absolutely smash the Chiefs. But we all know how this game is going to go: Fox is going to debut some terrible new TV scoreboard format that everyone on social media will complain about. Probably -250 odds on… Read More Super Bowl LVII Prediction
The Chiefs will be wearing white next Sunday when they square off against the Eagles for all the marbles. And 17 of the past 23 Super Bowls have been won by the team wearing white unis in the game. So the Chiefs have this in the bag, right? Well, not exactly… You will see why… Read More The Super Bowl Team Wearing White Unis has Won 17 of the last 23 Super Bowls… With a Catch
