Around the NFL: Offseason edition 2.0

Overpay

He got the Flacco 2.0 contract. For that kind of money he needs to have 2007' Brady or 2013 Manning years, but I doubt his ceiling will ever be on par with Brady or Manning's. He might be above average but that's not above average money.

That's ridiculous money. I really hope we don't end up paying Cousins that kind of money. He ain't worth it and neither is Luck. How do they expect to put players around him and resign their own guys?

Final tally on the Luck contract.

They aren't going to be able to unless they draft very well, and that sure hasn't happened lately.

Flacco was coming off a Super Bowl win...he's been garbage since. Tennessee, Jacksonville and Houston all got better this offseason...time for luck to man up. Gonna be fun to watch

lol

RIP Buddy, but you died a loser against the Redskins; lifetime 3-8 against Gibbs.

And the body bag line...
Lol yall savage as fuck haha

Some seriously delusional Colts fans out there. Seen several of them commenting how that Luck contract was good for Luck AND the team. Claims the team didn't get hammered too hard. Uhhh...what? He's the highest paid person in the NFL now with historic records in total contract and guaranteed money, and yet they don't think the team didn't get hammered?

One more thing on Buddy Ryan, whether you hated or liked him, he was GREAT for the NFL. For those of you that are old enough, back then the NFC East was never better. Hands down the best division in the NFL. At one point you had Gibbs, Parcells, Johnson and Ryan. I think the most rewarding wins was the playoff game after the body bag game. Buddy Ryan was running his mouth all week. That game ended his career in Philly with a 20-6 loss. I think Cunningham was benched as well.

But his teams were always kind of dirty, led by Andre Waters. He would send a LB after the kicker on kickoffs. lol.

What are you gonna do if you're the Colts? Of course you have to pay him. Won't be long before someone else signs an even bigger deal. Just the name of the game.

Yeah, but don't act like your team didn't get hammered or got some sort of "friendly" deal. :laughing-

Exactly. You dont play games with good young quarterbacks.
