y*so*blu Posted June 19, 2021 Author Share Posted June 19, 2021 (edited) I don't believe Reid's family issues necessarily have anything to do with his coaching style, and in any case it's better to stick to football. As Nagahide pointed out, Bell's explanation for the post is that he has a right to feel the way he does about Reid (although that right clearly is not at issue) because of something Reid said to him in KC. Which I'm guessing was along the lines of "you're not as good as you think you are anymore, go sit down."

AllThingsTN Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 3 hours ago, AngusMcFife said: Yes Brown was unhappy with Ben and Bell didn't think he was being compensated fairly. Just because you think it was a fair offer to Bell doesn't mean he thought it was as well. Per year averages are a joke, it's all about guaranteed money. And Brown immediately received a new contract with the Raiders, so it's obvious he wasn't happy with his contract either. But his beef was mostly with Big Ben. Right so Brown wasn’t happy and obviously thought he could do better elsewhere (without Ben) and Bell thought he was worth more than he was being paid (under-compensated)… Were they right?

It would be a huge Gruden move to sign him thinking he’ll regain some of that Pittsburgh form. I'm talking about 2 years ago, coming off sitting out in Pittsburgh. Now he's clearly not the same player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brown got a new contract with the Raiders and won his first Super Bowl with the Bucs. Bell got a nice chunk of change via guarantees. The Steelers used him so heavily that it was probably smart to grab the biggest bonus he could, if he was already in decline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I'm saying. Bell admitted to being out of shape his first year back then the next year the burst he did have was just gone. He was going to be terrible wherever he went. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a Raider fan youd think hed get the idea of a top free agent ending up being terrible on your team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkippyX Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Andy was on the market for a few hours maybe? KC grabbed him before several other teams could. Bell was a joke that only the Jets wanted to pay. Turns out Bell and the Jets were both the punchline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has crazy longevity in the NFL and has brought 2 franchises to the big game winning one as HC and another as an assistant coach along with an AP coach of the year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went to the Super Bowl with Philadelphia and choked. Then he gets a football prodigy in Mahomes at KC and wins the Super Bowl. Mike Ditka did it with Jim McMahon. What's Reid's excuse?
