Some were speculating recently it�ll be 185m so if it comes in lower that probably means more quality players getting cut.

It was always believed to be 175, at least on OTC and the other site, since November

Carolina�s offer wasn�t that bad, but I can see why Detroit would prefer to roll the dice on Goff maybe developing vs. Teddy, who probably isn�t a starting caliber QB.

It�s funny that Michigan always brags about Brady because the 20 years since he�s left have been just endless letdowns and disappointments.

As a Michigan fan in the 90s and 00s I have zero memory of Tom Brady's time playing for the Wolverines. I have clearer memories of Drew Henson and John Navarre under center than I do of Brady.

Despite living less than 30 minutes away from the stadium for most of my life I have never closely followed Michigan football.

I did go to that game where they lost to Toledo, though.

The Rams were clearly not gonna trade Donald, but you might as well try anyway because teams do sometimes make some bafflingly stupid trades.

Unfortunately the Rams aren't the Texans or Bears.

Not only would the Rams not even consider it.... He's 31. What exactly is your plan here Detroit? You'd now have no QB, and an all planet defensive player on the wrong side of the all-planet curve

I'm making fun of JJ Watt's big "not mad" spreadsheet. Its legitimately just a tossup vote and I don't give a poo poo who wins but for JJ to be all like "my brother has more tackles" is stupid.

Well this loving sucks. He'd come on every now and then recently and clearly he sounded sick and could only be involved for short periods but the fact that he was even around made things seem hopeful. ATN is probably the podcast I've listened to the most these past few years and it's a really weird feeling with his passing, more so than any other public figure since I listened to this particular person quite a bit.

gently caress cancer indeed
