NFL Cuts

Really would have liked seeing Adrian make the Jets roster, hopefully someone else will give him a shot..
 
Purdy is playing for the head coach who is probably the best guy I've ever seen at getting the most out of his QBs. Pickett has a stronger arm than Purdy and has similar athleticism. I love what Purdy brings to the table. That said, I believe Pickett has been put in horrible situations behind awful O lines with an awful OC. Purdy is in a tremendous situation for a young QB with maybe the best RB in the NFL and incredible pass catchers to go with a very good O line and a dominant left tackle. Lots of QBs would flourish in San Francisco right no.

Laugh if you want. I'll admit it's kind of a hot take but often stats don't tell the whole story. I like watching Purdy but he STILL has those WTH moments he had sometimes at ISU.
Please stop. If Shanahan was this great quarterback whisperer, he would not have drafted Trey Lance so high and then disposed of him shortly after. That was a major blunder
 
Some cuts are for salary cap reasons. Not saying this one was . But when there are surprise releases that’s the reason
It's a cat and mouse game sometimes. They often try to decide who they can waive without another team picking them up or is he a guy that we can reasonably replace if somebody does claim him? The process helps bad GMs

Lance was Lynch's choice because he wanted a guy who could give defenses fits with his legs. Picking QBs is a crap shoot but nobody can argue that Shanahan doesn't get the most out of his QBs. Good Lord he won games with Nick Mullens. I'm a huge Brock Purdy fan but that doesn't cloud my view of what he is.

I'm old and have 3 "kids" with lots of friends. Over the years through church and my business interests I've gotten to know literally thousands of people. I've been in the same area now for roughly 40 years. Living where I do is WAY different than living in Lincoln or Omaha. Drinks with friends often devolve in to a discussion of other area families. On top of that I was a scout leader for a large boy scout troop up until about 10 years ago. I know lots of millennials.
The most interesting man in the world...

Young people think they are broke because they are used to having expensive phones and huge cellphone bills, mocha frappes, etc. They also think they can wait for 2.5% interest rates to come around. On top of all that they don't want to live in a little 2 bedroom while they build equity.
Spot. On.

I present you Trey Lance as evidence not all qbs succeed under Shannahan. Even first round picks.
 
I'm not a fan buddy. I wish him the best.
I'm not a fan boy either but as it turns out he had crappy QB coaching at NU and was fed up with Frost. In hindsight, I don't blame him for leaving the way he did. I stuck up for Frost for too long. My evaluation of AMart's play in the UFL and the NFL preseason was objective. I'm over my butthurt over him leaving.

Kyle did not want Lance. It was all on Lynch.
 
Rashee Rice expected to be available all season for the Chiefs...looks like he could get suspended maybe mext season. Hahaha. What a sham. NFL doing the Chiefs a solid this year.

That’s pretty dumb. Why would it take a year to make a ruling? He should’ve been suspended a few games at the start of this season.

As I understand it, NFL is letting legal process play out before they do anything, and tbat is going to take a while it sounds like.

I agree its chicken shit. If they suspended for the season it would send a much better message to other players....this is a bad look.
 
The NFL disciplinary system is both arbitrary and capricious. Attempts to understand it are doomed to failure because you’re looking for logic and reason where none are present.

The inflation rate has cooled dramatically in the US now but the inflation caused previously by the spending is what has killed workers and people with fixed incomes. The biggest issue I've seen for my fixed income older sister is housing costs which have been dramatically inflated by demand from the illegal influx of immigrants. Entry level housing is virtually non-existent or priced so high most can't afford it. I just rented a house to a critical care nurse and her husband. They couldn't believe I would rent it to them for what I did because all the other places they looked at were dumps and were more money. She's a fairly recent grad and they can't swing buying a place at current prices. I think it was Yale that just published a study that estimated the number of illegal entries at over 30 million people. They're living somewhere and they're displacing US citizens.
Want to find illegals? Go to a hospital emergency room. They are 20% of the patients seeking care in many urban emergency rooms.

Shanahan runs a great offense and coaches his players up on the predetermined checks. That said, Shanahan didn't want Lance that bad. He got talked into it! He initially wanted Mac Jones so... yeah. :)
