nice try. the rubber is clearly meeting the road now and this latest set of stories about who they are parting ways with makes it clear. there is a huge cost to shoving all of their chips onto the table for last year (all the big deals and trading away the draft capital), and then also giving tua a big extension going forward. it is both things. it should now be becoming obvious, even to those who were wearing the rose colored glasses. two different sets of problems, colliding together
Meh……I am going to wait until the final 53 is in place to evaluate the team. Still a long way to go
this is what forces my hand in the tua direction. to put it all on tyreeks deal is intellectually dishonest. that is a one year issue, which is much easier to manuever around than the consequences of 5 years and 250mm. if you could have just been intellectually honest and admitted tua's impending deal is a large part (not all) of the problem, we would not even had to have had this discussion. simply, it should be clear to everyone now that there is a cost of doing business, as the title suggests. there is no free lunch. you want to trade away draft picks and pay up bigly for guys you trade for and/or FAs, there are consequences. you want to give a QB 5 and $250mm there are consequences. when doing this, I would hope the total equation at least works out to winning the division and a stinking playoff game! as best as i can tell we went all in for last year, to take advantage of tua being on his rookie deal. for a myriad of reasons, it did not work. the object of the game now is not to compound the problem, and instead manage around it and find the best outcome possible. i am worried we will make it worse, as this organization has tended to do
whats obvious? that we've been spending cash plentifully while we have a qb on his rookie contract? Dude get over it, EVERY TEAM has these issues. Every team signs players they then cut that didnt work out. Every team has dead cap. Pretty much every team that has a good QB doesnt just let them walk away. The league would look very different every year if each team just kept the qb carousel going that you seem to want to sign up for
yadda yadda yadda
whaaaaat youre telling me the 2024 season isnt starting in 3 weeks?!!?!
I actually just went outside to make sure the sky was still there…..yup, it hasn’t fallen yet!
Exactly
i say again nice try. i did not say a word about tua until you tried to put the whole thing on tyreeks deal. i also mentioned there are other things at play besides tua. i think that was pretty even handed.
You literally brought Tua up
And it also means getting it done in the window available which we turned into exactly 0 playoff wins.
It will be much worse, and the product on the field last year was predominantly smoke n mirrors.
