Steelers don't have to have money, they have his brothers. Browns have a really good team with a good QB, strong D and 2 good RB's. Titans have a strong team also and money. We are ....well...the Bills. Who knows how good we will be next year and money is tight.

I doubt he goes to the browns


that would be like digg's brother going to play for the patriots when he becomes a free agent


only way I see him picking the browns is if it's all about money and they pay a lot more then any other team

Would you care to elaborate as to why you don’t believe the Titans and Browns are SB contenders ?

They run and stop the run.

Lol, sorry...I couldn't resist. Very excited to sit down and watch a Sabres game! Is tonight a reverse retro game?

If retro means "good" then yes, it's a reverse retro night

Skinner really needs to score in the first period so Ralph cant pull the plug on it as soon as he wants to. First mistake Skinner makes he's gonna be playing with Fogarty

I had to take my covering of unfortunately my Dog ripped the one side, saw a (frank)ing Squirrel and went right through it. It's getting fixed know.

Skins - Jack - Sam
Hall - Staal - Olofsson

That should be the Top 6, as many of us have said for quite some time now.
Olo seems to work well with Staal, and Hall can carry that line. We already know the top trio works well.

When Cozens returns, he should go on the dot, use this year to give him experience there. Have his locker in between Jack and Staal.

Go get Victor Mete, and trade 1 or 2 of Miller, Montour to create Cap space...that should be Adams next action. During the offseason, get Dahlin's partner for life, and a decent Goalie.
WTF...did Adams have Covid?..who knew it was transmissible over cell phones.

They both have an average QB that don't have the 2nd Gear like brady , Allen, Patrick, Rodgers

last season browns had a 3rd place schedule
this year browns have a 2nd place schedule

last year the browns had the pathetic nfc east division to play
this year a harder nfc north



last year texans and jags
this year swap them for the charger and denver


cleveland could IMO be a much better team with only 8 or 9 wins


titans have what looks to be slightly harder going from 2nd place schedule to 1st place schedule and I see them closer to 10 wins then 12 given the schedule

jerry hughes is not great, maybe good
jj watt is not great, maybe good

rankings show them both in top 6

Combined for less than 10 sacks

Call me crazy....
but I’d like my starting DEs to have 10sacks EACH if they’re making $10mil -+

What’s so wrong about that?

Career sample size is too small to compare current performance to.

On another note,
If Bill's could sign Watt for relatively reasonable and he performs again, relatively well, being:
~8 Sacks
~25 QB pressures
~4 forced turnovers
~ play 14 games or more
All the while being double teamed ...
With Star coming back to absorb additional double teams...it would be a huge help and enable others to make a ton of plays!

Lots of “ifs” there though

I have to get some work done before the game, someone else finish it off


he wants a buddy ryan defense when we have a defensive coach dropping back instead of attacking

Nothing at all, but it also helps those DE when other players can take some of the double teams away from them, and Watts, Hughes and Star can help each other with that.

Having < 10 sacks doesn’t mean they didn’t play great. It’s literally the only thing you’ve focused on though
