2015-16 NFL Week 8: Turning Back the Clock

[Headspace]

It seems the issue was having the Broncos having to re-network existing offices so they could send faxes

yes

[Krandor]

Even before you edited that was a poorly worded sentence on my part.

[Anoat]

Christian Ponder had a tryout with the Titans today.

[Chun Liroy]

RIP colts OC.

[Chun Liroy]

I understand today is the trade deadline, but why does it seem like so much shit happened today? Even just internal changes Manziel starting etc

[Anoat]

Browns and the NFL gonna get ripped by the SJWs for starting Manziel while he is in the middle of a domestic abuse investigation.

[Headspace]

Well, McCown is injured.

I'm all for Austin Davis starting tho

[Marootsoobutsu]

7-0! #keeppounding

edit- how the fuck am i gonna calm down after this?

How about you spend your time looking over all your posts about the Panthers from the last few years when they were losing. Then, for the next several weeks while the Panthers are on top, you can do nothing but quote yourself from back then.

Apparently a deal was being worked between Brownies and Broncos but they didn't get it sorted out in time.

I'm kind of glad the trigger didn't get pulled. I'd love Joe in Denver, and this is already a team that's built to win now, but I feel it has the pieces (other than probably at QB), to do well for the next 3-4 years. I don't want to mortgage the future that hard right now.

the trade elway wanted to do, i believe was thomas + 4th for 2016 1st + 2nd.

for best LT in the game and clady's replacement i'd say that's more than a fair enough price, especially considering his contract was pretty friendly.

but from what i understand the browns kept trying to squeeze more out of elway. wanted two first-rounders which wasn't gonna happen. wouldn't be surprised if they were just trying to get a ransom or nothing at all.

[Marootsoobutsu]

Thomas is a future HoFer with a number of good years left who's never missed a snap. I'd say he's worth it.

I can't imagine Denver has the cap space for Thomas, and while I'd give up a 1st and 2nd, two firsts is kind of hard to stomach. At the same time, Clady on right next year (if he can stay healthy) with Thomas on the left could make freaking Ryan Leaf look good. I think if Denver's game against the Packers had gone as poorly for Manning as most of the season has, though, Elway would have pulled the trigger.

[Churchill]

Manziel isn't an internal change, McCown died last Sunday.

the pro-rated salary fit if a traded happened, but just barely. next season would have involved releasing clady next year to keep thomas, but i think his release is a foregone conclusion, with or without thomas. i agree though, two firsts is too much of a price.

You okay, buddy?

[Bregor]

Working on the thread. A couple lines aren't up yet because literally everyone in the NFL died on Sunday

[Boyiee]

No excuses

[Buffy]

Bregor we appreciate your diligence and attention to detail. You are swell.
