[@henrywallacesghost5883]

Salary cap is demarcation line that you can straddle on either side but don't walk too far away from it on either side because you will be in trouble. Need to spend near the cap to be competitive and can find yourself in trouble if you play kick the can with it.

[@daveingrey2615]

I can't take Rich's word that JJ is good enough to succeed with the Giants when they have no O-Line and no WR. Rich is too biased with Michigan guys. If JJ succeeds with the Vikes, which he is well positioned to do, that does not mean the Giants blew it by passing on him. Giants need so much. As a Giants' fan, I am glad they got a top WR for the first time since rookie Odell. I do not expect them to be good this year and they'll be well-positioned to get a good QB in next year's draft. Then, hopefully they can compete.

[@nickbrown1843]

Rich's comment on Brockman needing to throw his diploma in the trash sums up over half of what I think about most of the overreactions he comes up with

[@nathancaraballo7600]

Damn didn’t know he went to Cuse. Mike Tirico is shaking his head

[@user-en9qd5nx8w]

That's a bit harsh, some of them are actually good, some he clearly is trying to bait Rich or is looking for a side reaction or using it as a talking point. I will say the one with calling the Falcons the #1 seed in the NFC next year was an easy one and by definition a bigtime overreaction, but again, it was pretty obviously posed as a talking point.

[@curtd2741]

Kelce is another year older and will certainly be in the mix, but with Rice likely being suspended for 3-6 weeks and having played so deep into the playoffs for so many years in a row, I think this is the year they have an early exit.

[@markb3786]

Chiefs won last year with a weak offense and no deep game. Hollywood Brown and Worthy will take the safeties deep, and Kelce and Pacehco will cook in the opened-up middle. Gonna be a totally different, exciting offense from last year.

[@joesirr1241]

we talk ab the bears now what a time to be alive

[@reznorfan78]

bears fans were saying the same stuff about fields...."This is the year!" lol

[@attilasuto6013]

I always had doubts about Fields. He was slow in processing, slow in drop backs, slow in release. Nice guy though. Our rookie division 2 undrafted qb went 2-2, while Fields went 5-8 with the same players. The rookie had 67% completion rate to Fields 60%. Rookie got sacked 4 times in 4 games, Fields got sacked 3-4 times per game. It was time for him to go. Improved marginally in 3 seasons.

[@markkostecki4558]

Bears Texans is also the Hall of Fame game this year. They can promote the week 1 game throughout the whole night

[@Crulak]

Too bad we didn't get a hot mic moment from Belichick when the Falcons drafted Penix. I bet he's got some thoughts on the falcons front office after that. Curious if Blank ends up with regrets.

[@rounz1]

[@9ddanino]

I agree that was crazy move. There defense isnt that good and they have zero pass rush. The Falcons are not competing for Superbowl they are only competing for 1st place in there division and theres more complete teams in the division so i dont think its a lock they win it.

[@manunava4733]

[@scoreyj13]

SO why not do Bears/Texans to open the season. Showcase what the league should view as the future (at least possibly) top QB's in the league out of the gate. I think that could generate a lot of excitement. Plus two big markets on top of it.

[@thseed7]

Preseason Chargers hope needs to be tempered. As a Chiefs fan, I very much believe they always have the most potential in recent years, Raiders might challenge that with a little more stability across QB and coaching (signing Pierce was the smartest thing they've done in a long time, dude is exactly what their team needed). Problem is that the Chargers keep getting hit with the injury bug, beating themselves and I can't see how losing Keenan Allen and Austin Ekeler makes you better. Not saying that they can't be the best, just that I need to see it.

[@sidar2071]

[@josh5218]

It pretty much is though, Kyler to DHop was the most prolific QB WR duo in the one full season they played together. I understand him saying Kylers injury history is the most questionable part of it, but barring a freak injury I think they are the most prolific duo but I would say it's more a hot take than certain. The niners won't sign their wrs because they can't afford them. Seahawks I doubt beat them out. The Rams are the likely ones but that's barring Stafford getting injured as well.
