...."But the league did see more value in Rowe than in Butler in subsequent years."

Sources: Ex-Pats Malcolm Butler (5 years, $61M), Dion Lewis (4 years, $23M) to join Titans

The Titans intend to sign former Patriots cornerback Malcolm Butler to a five-year, $61 million contract, which includes a $30 million guarantee, and ex-Pats running back Dion Lewis to a four-year, $23 million deal, sources told ESPN.
www.espn.com

The "League" never saw Rowe as anything more than a $16.15 million over 3 years the year after Rowe was benched for Jason McCourty in 2018. ***Butler got $30 million GUARANTEED - his IMMEDIATE GUARANTEE was twice as much as Rowe's TOTAL over 3 years with incentives.

What on God's green earth are you talking about?

But if you want to defend Nick Foles having the game of his life when BB making a healthy scratch of a starting CB then compopunding that decision by keeping the unused CB ACTIVE and not using that ACTIVE spot for a healthy DT (famously spotted by Mike Reiss at the Mall of America pregame getting food from Panda Empire), then God bless.

This post is beyond absurd.

Nelson Algholor made more money than Amendola.

Who cares how much money they made?

The Butler money was as bad as the JC Jackson contract?

He busted and was out of the league.

Rowe kept playing.

I'm not saying Rowe was better. He was mediocre to bad. But so was Butler!

You think it's irrelevant that we put a big CB out there against big WRs, and that CB lasted in the NFL longer than the guy we benched, who also busted shortly thereafter?

We're arguing over 2 mediocre to bad CBs

You LITERALLY wrote “But the league did see more value in Rowe than in Butler in subsequent years”

What’s your measure of someone in a business (and the NFL is a business) seeing more value???? Most people above the age of 11 would say the MONEY offered for that person’s services. The league saw far more value in Butler than Rowe subsequent to that mental breakdown by Belichick in throwing SB 52. Ask someone to help you with the arithmetic on the subsequent years’ comparative contracts offfered for the services of Malcolm’s Butler vs Eric Rowe.

But, hey, you be you. It’s entertaining to watch someone try to defend Belichick’s actions the night of SB 52.
 
This is pretty damn funny ...

 
Given how the Coaching have dried up: this was not the year to fire your Current HC. Teams should have stuck it out for one one more year. I think the success of the Patriots this year had a lot to do with the Bills making this questionable decision. Sean McDermott will be better than who they bring in: are they going to lure BB??

Fans obsessing about the cooks call…. Allen could have (1) not been an idiot at the end of the first half (2) not overthrown a game winner (3) not lost the ball on multiple occasions and he’d have won. Why not obsess over those ?

If NE’s all world offense hadn’t been inept all game, the crazy catch in winter 2008 would’ve been irrelevant.

@TommyD4207 You would be sick to your stomach if that happened against us. I have compassion for some Teams I feel for the Bills Team and Fans. As much as they're the enemy Josh Allen is still likable.

My neighbour Marcel is also likeable. And, coincidently, he has the same number of SB appearances as Josh Allen. Because Josh Allen can’t hit an open receiver for the win in the biggest game…. and then his fans cry about a non-call. They went to OT. Josh has to NOT be brain dead for 45s at the end of the first half. He couldn't do that.

It was a clear and obvious interception.

If you don't think so, you're either a Bills fan, or have no idea what the catch rule is. If Cooks had stayed on his feet and then went down with the catch - it would have been a catch.

That didn't happen, he made the catch going to the ground, and lost possession.

Even Cooks himself knew it was an interception, just watch his reaction.

Stop trying to make fetch happen.

And if it happened to us, I would have been ripping the WR for not hanging onto the ball, which was all Cooks had to do, and didn't, because he's Brandin Cooks.

Also, Josh Allen has now run Steph Diggs, Brian Daboll and Sean McDermott out of town, by going up the back stairs to his owner. I'm glad that makes him likeable in your book. It's never his fault. It's never the Bills fault they lose, it's always the refs. They've changed rules three separate times because poor Josh Allen couldn't win as the rules were currently constituted.

Stick your compassion. They have none for you.

Didn't know Josh Allen was like that: I though it's was all Brandon Beane.

I don't know if Allen proactively went to Beane and Pagula but this doesn't happen without him being at a minimum neutral or ambivalent towards a change being made.

I love BB... But I wouldn't, not anymore... Two years ago? Maybe a Different story... Now? He's 74, not as focused as he used to be, and something I'd never thought would happen, his private life, once jealously guarded, is a tabloid distraction... Not a guy id be looking at to head up a team nowadays

The Pats are on the precipice of winning the AFC Championship.

Many thanks to 74 year old BB who drafted Marcus Jones, Gonzo, Boutte, Barmore, Pop, Baringer, Mapu, Rahm, Jennings, Owenu. Without Gonzo this Pats D isn't possible. Marcus Jones either. Boutte and Rahm are just solid players that keep coming up with huge plays. Vrabel has molded this Pats team in BBs image. Ravenous D, opportunistic Special Teams, Solid O. Do your job. Vrabel has his own Ernie Adams watching his back.

You can preach that BB is too old all you want, but he will be back in the NFL. There is no way that he walks without attempting to break Schulas record.

I agree completely with the post, but how did Allen run Daboll out of town?

He left for a head coaching job.
