1pooh4u Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 It’s getting near that time. There’s a shorter preseason, and an extra season game this year. We also get to see extra wild cards thrown in the mix. Yayayayayay! All the teams make the playoffs. Fans will be back in the stadium, so far at full capacity, until Covid19 outbreaks happen, but let’s hope that doesn’t happen. The year was long and hard (that’s what she said) football was weird without the fan noise, and we all had to go out seeing the douchiest player in all of football get, yet another, super bowl ring. May this football season coming bring much smack talk and joy. And let us never forget, these titans among men, risk grave head injuries all to entertain us. I, for one, am eternally grateful to have another season shouting at my tv, and listing the reasons why Tom Brady is a dick, and why Aron Rodgers needs to fuckin shave his mustache. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1pooh4u Posted July 14, 2021 Author Share Posted July 14, 2021 The Jets seem to be doing the same ol same ol. They refuse to give Marcus Maye, an amazing safety, a contract. We’re still letting great players just go. Pretty sure they’re gonna tag him. Players have really no leverage this season. A lot of players are actually reworking their contracts cuz the NFL got no money. The salary cap is really low for everyone this year. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way do they forfeit games. The rest of the league?

Distortedreasoning Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 oh wow seems like a pretty harsh penalty. i agree that there will probably be some back peddling once enough owners and people start to complain. last season was pretty shitty in this regard, we saw several league favorites get less damaging outcomes than others. you think teams would have prioritized getting their players vaccinated this season but here we are. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, if the NFL was serious about this they would simply mandate vaccinations for all players and staff. They have full legal authority to do that. But thats not what they are doing. Instead they are playing this game where they keep trying to get more and more people vaccinated and pretending like theyll treat the teams fairly if they do catch covid.

1pooh4u Posted July 22, 2021 Author Share Posted July 22, 2021 I’m sure the NY Jets players were all offered the JJ vax. Shit wouldn’t be surprised if JJ was given league wide. all jokes aside everyone is reluctant to mandate vaccines that aren’t approved by the fda. When I took mine I had to sign something saying I was well aware that the fda hadn’t approved any vaccine yet. So the nfl is mandating without directly mandating. The nfl could say get vaccinated or don’t play. Maybe they don’t want any liability issues in the rare event someone gets a weird reaction 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Distortedreasoning Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 your right in that the league could probably mandate this but the key word is taking this serious. maybe there are enough owners out there with the mentality of getting a competitive edge over their opponent if they hit a string of bad luck that they decided against it? i could also see this like pooh said and make the penalty so severe that it will give owners no choice. but we all know owners will only complain when its their team getting fucked and league will most likely cave if theres enough complaining going on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya can’t not trust the government and then say you ain’t taking a vaccine until the government gives an official thumbs up😆. There are probably quite a few anti vax players and owners in the league.

panic Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 I don't see how the Packers could realistically extend Adams this year unless its incredibly team friendly. In order to trade Rodgers next year (which was always the plan as they really don't have the money to pay him in 2022), he has to be on the team at the start of the league year in March. But they currently have to clear something like 37 mil to get under the cap prior to that. So extending Davante at this point would make that very difficult.

Seight Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 After years of sending in random thoughts about Dallas and/or KC and/or Peyton Hillis I have finally made WYTS by taking about the Jaguars. GENTLEMEN, BEHOLD! [actual first name that you can see on Defector or whatever lol]: The Kahn family owns the Jaguars, Fulham FC, and All Elite Wrestling. AEW’s relative success doesn’t so much tell me that pro wrestling is easier to run than a football team, but that if we had ever actually allowed Vince McMahon to buy an NFL team or Newcastle United, as had been rumored in the past, that team would be a SPECTACULAR dumpster fire of a franchise by now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Distortedreasoning Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 but the jaguars have been a dumpster fire of a team since forever. cant say anything about fulham fc. but i'll agree that vince with the jags would be off much worse. as for rodgers. both sides of that battle have been terrible but rodgers does seem to come off as worse to me as well. at least its finally over. tho they are still fucking up on adams contract lmao. he probably knows rodgers is gone after next season and will be catching balls from love for the next 5 years.

Elway couldn't stand that Peyton was hogging the spotlight. Since Peyton was winning SB though he couldn't do much. Look at Tebow, he was really popular, but didn't win SB. Elway sacked him, pure ego. Tebow was a starting QB, not Brady level, but a good starting QB to build around. Rodgers will be gone, true. Good riddance as far as I'm concerned, maybe he'll end up with Indy for a one year SB run like Rivers. Every year you have a team or two that get into the playoffs with a sub .500 record, and you have a couple really good teams that lose out due to conference record. You have wildcard slots to cover that, if you don't get in that way then play better in conference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
