Not arguing at all, because most linemen lose some weight after they retire, but at 6' 8", he's can only be so light. Guessing he's at least 260 lbs. [Reply]
Also, lets be honest, DeAndre Baker sucked ass in 2019. Even his "highlights" are full of plays that should've been DPI's and allegedly he graded out as one of the worst CB's on the year.
Of course there's the caveat that the Giants turn gold into shit all the time, so we'll see. [Reply]

Right, that's what I'm saying. I wonder if I can find a pic of them together. [Reply]

From what I understand he was pretty bad for most of the season, but played significantly better down the stretch.
Sounds like a rookie on a bad team/defense. [Reply]

We are over a decade into the Patriots cast off bullshit and these “professionals” still hire these Patriot losers like Joe Judge.
How many examples of Patriot Way bullshit do you need to see to know these guys suck? It’s astonishing that this has happened for well over a decade now and these supposedly smart people just don’t learn.
Hell, it's probably only a matter of time before Brian Flores flames out, too.
Bill O'Brien appeared to be the exception to the Patriot Way rule his first couple of seasons in Houston. No, he didn't take them anywhere special, but he also didn't pull a Matt Patricia by taking a team that had made the playoffs 2 of the previous 4 seasons and turning them into a squad that can barely muster 7-9. And remember when Josh McDaniels had the Broncos playing 6-0 football? And they missed the playoffs that same season?
The Dolphins look sharp and well-run right now. Flores appears to be a pretty damn good coach. But I'm telling you. Patriot Way morons will show their AIDS eventually. Maybe it's giving them more responsibility, or maybe it's them letting success get to their head. Could also be complacency. And lastly, we simply can't rule out that Machiavellian, nepotistic, arrogant, and despotic strain that runs through all Patriot douche coaches. It has a way of wearing players out, and if you can't find the right balance of all those factors, your little empire will one day crumble.
By this time next year, we could be shaking our heads as Brian Flores gets fired midseason. I'm not ruling it out. Stranger and more sudden instances of incompetence in the Patriot family have occurred before. [Reply]

I figured that Mike Vrabel would have flamed out by now as well but apparently, his time with Urban Meyer at Ohio State along side his best friend, Luke Fickell, has helped him avoid the pitfalls of the typical Belichick protege. [Reply]

Probably won't happen until Miami has guys wanting to get paid, then you'll see stupid shit happen. [Reply]

Joe Judge has the double whammy.
He coached under Bill AND he coached under Saban (who coached under Bill).

Mike Pennel is on the wrong side of 30 and Derrick Nnadi is quickly barreling to pricing himself out of the Chiefs market in 2 years.
This is how you end up needing some DL.
Who is giving Kpass a money deal? I know he's not great, but I think the Chiefs might consider giving him the Robinson treatment if nobody else bites (and they really shouldn't, given his lack of production). [Reply]
