NFL (since 2016)
"Free agency started last night and was pretty crazy some huge money being spent. Osweiler getting £18m a year for the Texans, leaving the Broncos without a QB, Giants have spent a fortune on good but not great players, Oliver Vernon has more guaranteed money than JJ Watt. lots more deals but cant be bothered to list them all."

Re: NFL (since 2016)
Quite how the Dolphins went into the season with Tua and the two worst backups I can remember as their only fallback is a total mystery. At least Mike White can sort of play.
Our season is over already.
Still, we did get the magnificently named Storm Duck making a play. Even for the NFL that is a doozie.

Re: NFL (since 2016)
Aaron Rodgers seems to get annoyed when asked about Robert Saleh’s comments about dialing back the cadence on offense. “That’s one way to do it. The other way is to hold them accountable.”

The NEW Vikings were almost the OLD Vikings, still they did beat the Pack at Lambeau.

Re: NFL (since 2016)
been watching since the early 80s, I've never seen a better rookie QB
*then a minute later, he throws his first interception

Norflondon. I'm sure Quinn tried to bring him to Washington but it would have been a lateral move, so I'm sure Dan gave him the best reference and he's ended up with a bigger role in Seattle

Re: NFL (since 2016)
Article about (Northbank's? Apologies if it's someone else on here!) brother off the BBC site.
It feels a little like a rehash of one I am sure I've read on there before but still:

I feel like I can actually wish him well now he's not coaching for the cuntiest team in the league.

Re: NFL (since 2016)
I still don't think the Jets know what a good young QB really looks like and how to develop them.
That's why they swallowed the pill and went all in on an undoubted success - but a veteran - in Rodgers, who is now the oldest player in the NFL.
Under these owners, I think that'll have to be our model going forward. Maybe not a 40-year-old every time, though!

Re: NFL (since 2016)
Btw, Darnold has always had decent talent.
He entered the draft a year early, so he was much younger even than most rookies and he needed work. The Jets were, of course, the wrong franchise for him given our historical problems with offense and developing quarterbacks (the owners still don't really know what a winning set-up looks like).
Darnold's illness in his rookie year also curtailed him. He missed key games, and he was thrown in at the deep end rather than having time to learn behind a veteran QB. But the worst thing that happened to him was that he never really had a decent offensive or QB coach in New York.
He lost his way, ended up in Carolina (another graveyard for many QBs). But he's a decent enough player that, despite all of that, he's learned a bit along the way. Good luck to him.
The sliding doors moment for Darnold was when the Browns picked Mayfield ahead of him as the #1 draft pick. The Jets (under Todd Bowles as HC) wanted Mayfield, who was a little older, more street-wise and a better fit for New York. Darnold, who had been touted as the #1 pick, went #3 to us instead (we also passed on Josh Allen) and we were not ready for him because we offered no development path. I still think Mayfield would have thrived in New York - he's got that kind of chippy "couldn't give a shit" character, and he's a gunslinger who takes a few extra risks.
Now Mayfield is thriving in Tampa...under Todd Bowles.
