Today's Super Fun Fact:

In the Dolphins last 9 games, they were out scored 81 to Nothing in the 3rd quarter.


*double checking the dictionary on the definition of fun*

Burrow clearly hoping to get out of Cincy.

With the obvious handbrake of the Bungles ownership being cheap, unimaginative and extremely bloody minded, I wonder what it might take. Like if the Giants offered #4, a 2027 1 and a 2028 1?

Jackson would get less than 3 1s I’d guess, albeit he’s been a more accomplished QB and is the same age

I got an idea that might work for stingy Cincy.

Raiders trade their first for Burrow. IMO Bengals are getting by far the better end of this deal, but Davis could probably find enough yes people to tell him to do it.

If Brady got involved he might be able negotiate Bengals to throw in a 2nd this year, which Raiders could use to improve O line or grab a WR and save some on salary instead of going FA route.

I did not research if Raiders have room under the cap, so maybe it can't/won't work.


And if Davis does a similar deal for Lamar, then get your Ravens over everything bets for '26.

Yes I forgot about Dart. No way that trade happens.


Speaking of trades, it seems incredible that Stefanski loses his job but Andrew Berry keeps his in Cleveland. The architect of one of the very worst trades in the history of the NFL

fwiw Browns owner Jimmy Haslam said the disastrous trade ultimately fell on his wife and him... and to hold them accountable

we can safely call Haslam the architect of that trade (and the decision to fully guarantee the contract)

that said, i've looked back at the Browns last 3 drafts and 2025 was pretty much a home run (if i remember correctly, news reports indicated that Berry was told to draft Shedeur), while 2024 and 2023 are piss poor


The QBs this draft SUCK


The couple people I've seen post coach of the year have Mike MacDonald 1st and haven't ranked vrabel at all. Neither are real voters though. Right now McDonald about+300 equivalent on kalahi.

Some patriots guy was counting MVP votes and lost like it'll be very very close.

Also the two guys I've seen had puka over jsn for opoy but right now jsn is -7000ish on FanDuel.

I think I'd go

Maye MVP
Puka opoy
Macdonald coy

So same as barnwell though id have coen second for Coach


If you could give co-OPOY like McNair and Manning shared MVP it'd be fitting to give it to both JSN and Puka. Clearly the two most fitting candidates.

so 10 out 14 QBs not being drafted in the first round is "rare" now, is it?


That's position, not round.


I’m really happy the NFL doesn’t have round 262.

The funny thing about Hurts and Purdy is they replaced QBs drafted 2nd and 3rd overall.


All I can tell you is the guy who β€œstudied all week” to come up with Skins/under in last year’s NFCCG just told me he likes Carolina Jax SF getting points, and that the Pats have been his β€œmoney team all season long.”

I’m biased but considering how historically bad the Lance trade-pick was, and that Purdy has a ring 85% if you sim his career 1M times….


Harbaugh out. Not shocked. Ravens to the moon next season.

lol oh. That's what I get for trying to be snarky after two gummies have kicked in.





lol pretty much sports fans in a nutshell


And sports commentators

Please God, Lamar in Vegas with Harbaugh.


Well my prognostication was a real misfire.

I am a bit surprised. Sounds like Harbaugh wouldn't hear anything about removing Monken as OC and that was a key factor. I dunno, there's a lot of blame to go around. But it could be a complete HC/OC/DC overhaul.

I have no idea what they are doing if Orr stays and both Harbaugh/Monken are gone.
