In normal times, yes, that trajectory games out in their favor. But not if the league takes a bath on revenue the next couple years. Curious if the speculation about his salary being tied to a % of the cap is true, and if so is it a for better or worse situation? E.g. if his take is 15% and...

I guess I feel like that’s more of an idea that people - fans, media, whatever - have tried to ascribe to BB based on interpretation, supposed hearsay or, more likely, blatant speculation. With Krause it was literally quoted repeatedly from the horse’s mouth over more than a decade. Bill, on...

What was last year, 26ppg? I don't honestly picture the D being able to repeat the high turnover count. That's not about them being bad, or losing a few guys, it's just never been stat you can rely on year-t0-year even with the best talent. They scored a few TDs, but moreover got the offense...

The real villain of the Bulls’ demise is Reinsdorf. And he shamelessly used a dead man to take all the flak in his interviews for Last Dance. Krause had his faults, and his neediness for public “credit” was chief among them. He won executive of the year awards, he was written and talked about...

I think you could frame a really interesting Pats doc starting from the moment Malcolm catches the INT in 49 and ending with him crying on sidelines in 52. So much success and drama in that timeframe. Oh god find a way to compare it to the ‘84-‘86 Celtics and I’m Bill Simmons

Right? Apparently this flaw was not evident until the WR group was forced to meet over Zoom. I can get behind the concept of the firing/release. The timing is super weird.

Also the season is shortened to 12 games. Bucs go 12-0; 15-0 after winning SB. Don Shula dies shortly after being on First Take screaming about how it doesn’t count.

Can one truly stare into another’s soul via Skype? I say just do it as is everyone will have the same flaws - doing it later may in fact allow teams in some areas to have visits before others, who knows. This is how it is this year, it can still be good TV, and without all the ridiculous fans...

In Aaron Rodgers first year as a starter he threw for over 4000 yds, and 28 tds/13 ints. That would have to be considered a YUGE win for Stidham if he could do that. The Packers went 6-10 that year. The good news is they won the SB 2 years later. The bad news is they haven’t been back. This...

Couldn’t agree more. This could have been resolved by signing a smarter 3 year deal committing to Tom last off-season. If I’m reading some of the new CBA news correctly, they now have an increased ability to add some balloon-type salary years to the end of contracts (no 30% rule) which would...

Like who? Mariota? You're living in the past. Who cares if he was average with one of the worst franchises in sports in 2015? I'm not saying he's a HOFer, but Tannehill led the league in passer rating. He was extremely efficient and perfect for what the Titans wanted to do offensively...

He was extremely good for 10 games, not 3 or 4, led the league in passer rating. Granted they are/were not a pass-first team and without a RB like Henry he will not look like that again, but I think this is just what QB contracts look like now. By your metrics the Garoppolo contract is much...

I don't think it'd be Bill doing a favor, I think it would be TB's new team going the extra mile in their commitment to him (and maybe overpaying by a round in terms of draft pick) in order to secure him a WR he is extremely comfortable with on and off the field. God I hate this offseason

They are gonna have a ton of punts to cover

He’s...never missed a game. #confused I would be on the side of tearing it down if Brady goes rather than sign someone like Rivers. That said, there was a lot of complaining about how non-emotive Tom was last season, so this would be different. Vet minimum deal and I’m in.

Couldn’t agree more, might be a total disaster but I must admit I will watch. The highlights will be electric, like watching Tyreek Hill guilt free. The lows? Hoo boy could be lots of butt-fumbles. Brees-to-Thomas on 9-yd slants and outs? ZZZZZZZZ Give the young Mormon the ball and let it...

Both are complicated. Warner only even started 12 or more games 4 times over 12 NFL seasons, with injuries and benchings sprinkled in. Davis had 1 good and then 3 absolutely outrageous seasons, then basically succumbed to injuries. I don’t know that I give Warner bonus points for the extra...

Tom stole his job, then Jules stole his jersey number Once TB retires, maybe he could stoke that competitive fire by starting a vineyard and dominating Bledsoe’s vintages

Great! Let’s do the press conference Monday morning after the Super Bowl when they do their little recap/MVP thing and see which gets covered more
