Florio, if I remember correctly, got into a few Twittter spats and was pretty adamant that Cousins a.) was going to sign with the highest bidder, b.) was just using the Vikings to drive up the Jets’ offer, and c.) said that there would be no fully guaranteed contract. He was wrong on all three, and he’s been pretty salty about it.

Miami may already have their QB. But are they smart enough to see that?

If you know anything about Florio, yes. He’s trying to say that the QB isn’t good enough. Which is on par with Florio since Cousins signed with Minnesota. Florio has had a burr under his saddle, in regards to Cousins, ever since he was proven wrong on the Cousins signing. Florio gets uptight and petty when he’s wrong about contracts.

I don’t understand what Miami is doing. Draft picks look good on paper, but you’re really looking at a 50/50 of these picks working out. And you just traded away two young up and coming stars, at 2/4 premier positions. Players you’ll like use the draft picks obtained to replace.

Apparently the Chiefs were one of the teams in talks with Miami. But if you’re Miami, who’s 1st round pick do you want?

I do not understand the Minkah Fitzpatrick trade, from a Steelers’ perspective. Especially when the trade came AFTER the news about Roethlisberger missing the rest of the season. If the Steelers wind up with a top 10 pick, which is entirely possible, and lose out on a chance to draft Tua or Herbert, it’s going to be viewed as a colossal mistake. The Steelers better hope that Mason Rudolph takes the reigns, and looks the part of a franchise QB.

Yep. I’m hoping for another Browns whooping.

Not a chance.

One of my biggest issues during the game, especially in the 1st half, is that they were not calling plays that got Cousins on the move. We didn’t see them trying to move the pocket, despite the interior getting abused. It was frustrating seeing GB moving the pocket for Rodgers, and basically calling a game like I thought we’d see.

I’m glad I could help

Psssst. Most quarterbacks do. That’s why those teams have winning records.

The PI rule is absolutely atrocious. The NFL has absolutely no idea how to implement it, and they’ve been about as consistent as Goodell’s player discipline. The NFL just needs to scrap it. Al Riveron is a buffoon.

Was today ugly? Yes. But I think people are overreacting with the passing game. It’s the 2nd week of a new scheme and a new play caller. I’m not ready to hit the panic button. Cook is a game changer, however. The running game seems to have their part of the offense down, and maybe that’s because they put so much emphasis on it during the preseason. Hopefully the run game can keep the team in games while the passing game catches up.

Last year’s game against Green Bay was a 4th quarter comeback.
