Yes he had a very talented team but no, Burrow played in the SEC. LSU played 5 single digit ranked appointments during Burrow’s senior regular season: Texas #9, Florida #7, Auburn #9, Alabama #2 and Georgia #4. The SEC is fucking brutal. They also played Oklahoma #3 and Clemson #2 so 7 for 7 verses single digit ranked opponents that year. OSU only played 2 single digit ranked opponents that year one being the loss to Clemson.

So, instead of saying that this does not apply to Joe, may I respectfully suggest that you admit that your original statement should have been expanded to include quality of opponents?

I just did that with my detailed explanation. Yes, Burrow had a lot of talent at LSU but no, he didn’t get to play patsies almost every week. Ohio State is 7-0 and hasn’t played any opponent currently ranked in the top 25. It’s not their fault but Stroud literally has all day to throw.

Kind of surprised they came out and said it was for the rest of the season. I get it but most teams would just make the move and not add the “rest of the season” portion. The curse of Andrew Luck keeps giving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Tigre Posted October 25, 2022 Report Share Posted October 25, 2022 Haven’t read any comments, but don’t most coaches usually add the change “gives us the best chance to win” by-line? That one—and the “going in a different direction”—have always made me lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sea Ray Posted October 25, 2022 Report Share Posted October 25, 2022 Colts owe Ryan $24 mill this year and another $29 mill after this year https://www.stampedeblue.com/2022/10/24/23421353/colts-salary-cap-implications-to-move-on-from-veteran-qb-matt-ryan-at-seasons-end Amazing to me how billionaire owners just don't care about $30 mill here and there.

I have a hard time believing Wilson is done. He had a very good season last year and is only 34. Thinking this is more of a coaching issue. Ryan, on the other hand, was a serious reach.

Geez do the Hawks looks good now based on the trade and the way Geno is playing. I am sure Wilson will show better in time and Geno will show less in time, but right now Hawks look good. Pete the gum smacker is happy that the focus is back to running first and passing second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmishBengalFan Posted October 26, 2022 Report Share Posted October 26, 2022 Ryan will likely never play another snap for the Clots ever. There's a clause in his contract, if he gets injured and cannot pass a physical by the third day of the next league year (I believe), he gets paid $12M for the full season (which is guaranteed already) PLUS an additional $17+M in bonuses (which is not and is triggered by the contract if injured). If the Clots know that he's not playing for them next year, playing him any more this year risks a VERY expensive injury. So it's not about whether he's any good or not, or whether he can offer leadership to help groom a less-experienced QB to better himself and the team - it's only about protecting the bottom line.

Theyre going nowhere for some time. Draft wont fix it. QB league now and they don't have one. Tennessee should.run away in their division and we'll probably see them again in the playoffs.. Chiefs Bills Bengals Titans.. Ravens Jets Chargers Dolphins in the hunt.. Every other team is dangerous come Sundays.. This ain't no party This ant no disco. This ain't no foolin around..

This Thursday night Baltimore plays at Tampa Bay, who have lost 3 consecutive games - that is the Ravens toughest game until the reg season finale at Cincinnati. Meanwhile Cincinnati also has to play at Tampa Bay later, but the difference is that's like Cincinnati's 5th or 6th remaining toughest game. Not to mention that Cincinnati is already 0-2 in the division, and will have a tough time winning any AFC North tiebreaker scenario against Baltimore.

You might get a Rat upset or two along the way…and then maybe pass them in the finale. However, there is basically zero margin for error the rest of the way for the Bengals. Even should the Bengals win the AFCN, it is looking more and more like they will be in the same Wild-Card Weekend scenario as last season. Maybe lightning strikes twice…but it will be doubly tough.
