I mean, at this point it's conspiracy-level stuff but it was still strange how it all went down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sure hope this is the case. Hate seeing NE continue to reap rewards like this. The mere fact this guy gets to act like an absolute child in practice and on social media and gets his way, if there is a football god, this will not work out. there is a football god, but his name is belichick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd have went nuclear on their organization and been a bigger distraction. With a young core and Mayock trying to get this ship pointed in the right direction, they couldn't have him out their on social media playing games any longer. Well this is what they should have done. All they did was draw a blueprint on how to get out. They should have suspended him for 4 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have buried him deep. The one man who could out petty him! End of the day, you send him the 5 day letter and he just goes nuclear on your organization. Juice wasn't worth the squeeze. It sucks for the Raiders. Gruden really tried to make it work. I take comfort in knowing that morons day will come. Karma is coming for all his action. And he has to live with the fact that everyone knows who he is now. Few respect him as a man. Everything he's trying to "stand for" about being more than an athlete, is noise. Just a child kicking and screaming for attention. He has one thing, football.... because he's not a man by any measure. You gotta earn that respect off the field. Scumbag showed his true colors. His day will come. He made his bed and he'll get to lie in it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know the ending of that story is Massachusetts refusing to extradite him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just torched $30mil+ guaranteed to childishly force his way into a deal that has 1 year and $9mil guaranteed. If his knee gets blown out in the first half of this season, goodbye $21mil. If he loses a step when he recovers, he may never see the field again. Exceptions get made for top end talent, not guys who used to be great but can't quite find their old form, and Brown has proven to be a walking exception. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
