Biggest waste of a talent in the history of the NFL Maybe waste is too harsh of a word. Squander maybe? Between the Colts mismanaging his injuries and him not really caring about football. He could have been one of the all time greats.

Adam Schefter reporting on the retirement before Luck himself could say anything on it made me despise sportsjournos

Schefter was also the one to leak Jason Pierre-Paul's medical records after the fireworks accident. Maybe Schefter is the problem.

Packers Defense is making me have high hopes.
If Jordan Love and the receivers get back on the same page for those long bombs it's over for the rest of the NFC.

They have an offensive head coach and young receivers. That should improve over the season. If the defense can keep up this pace and the team can stay mostly healthy, the Packers can be really scary

I still don't think the Packers are an elite team, but I think they've proven early on that they're at least very good and should make the playoffs. Also, Jeff Hafley (D coordinator) is going to be a hot head coach candidate in the offseason.

I think the Packers are one of the 2 teams in the NFC that can compete with the Ravens and Bills (Eagles are the other)
 
Gambling life hack: get 75% off all your bets when you just steal the money from your employer (the Jacksonville Jaguars). You'd have to be stupid not to bet with those odds
FanDuel has agreed to pay the Jaguars approximately $5 million to compensate for the nearly $20 million that a former Jacksonville employee stole from the team and deposited at the sportsbook, multiple sources familiar with the agreement told ESPN.

The sources said the deal was finalized in early 2025, more than a year after Amit Patel, a midlevel finance manager for the Jaguars, pleaded guilty to stealing $22 million through a virtual credit card system the team used for expenses.

Sources told ESPN that the NFL encouraged the Jaguars and FanDuel, one of the league's official betting partners, to come to a resolution but did not actively participate in the discussions. A source with direct knowledge of the agreement said FanDuel was motivated to pay the Jaguars in the interest of being a good partner with the league.

It certainly helps when the betting website is the sole sponsor for the NFL. "Hey, if you don't play nice with the Indian billionaire and return a percentage of the money his Indian employee stole from him to bet on your website, we'll go with the zillion other companies who will also pay out the wazoo to plaster their name everywhere."

Also I am sure FanDuel doesn't want attention paid to the fact they let a dude load up his account with $20m without looking into where the money was coming from.

So...how much money laundering is going on at these sites?

What's the earliest a head coach has been fired in the NFL? Like 6 weeks? It'd be hilariously insane if this turns out to be the case. That locker room is already a shit show anyways so it'd be interesting to see what approach the Dolphins take to rectify that right now, as well as when they hire the next guy.
 
I'd rather be a third string and learn nothing than backup a current MVP


Report: Ravens wanted to draft Shedeur before QB nixed pick​

CLEVELAND, OHIO - SEPTEMBER 07: Shedeur Sanders #12 of the Cleveland Browns looks on during the third quarter against the Cincinnati Bengals during the game at Huntington Bank Field on September 07, 2025 in Cleveland, Ohio.

The Baltimore Ravens were planning on drafting Shedeur Sanders in the fifth round of the 2025 draft, but the quarterback told the organization he didn't want to sit behind Lamar Jackson in Baltimore, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Sanders reportedly wanted to avoid being stuck behind Jackson on the depth chart, knowing that he wouldn't have a chance to play anytime soon with the two-time MVP already on the roster. The Colorado product conveyed to the Ravens that he would prefer getting drafted by a team where he could earn the No. 1 quarterback job.

Baltimore ultimately decided to pass on Sanders and selected offensive lineman Carson Vinson with the 141st pick. Just three picks later, the Cleveland Browns took Sanders 144th overall.


The 23-year-old is currently third on Cleveland's quarterback depth chart. He sits behind starter Joe Flacco and fellow rookie Dillon Gabriel, who the Browns took in the third round out of Oregon.

Sanders impressed in his preseason debut, completing 14 of 23 passes for 138 yards and two touchdowns with zero interceptions. However, he missed the team's second preseason contest due to an oblique injury, and struggled in the finale, throwing for just 14 yards while getting sacked five times.

Flacco, 40, won Cleveland's starting job in training camp after signing a one-year deal in the offseason. The veteran will lead the Browns in Week 2 when they take on the Ravens.

I get wanting to start immediately, but I hate this trend of starting your rookie QB just because a few have had success being baptized in the fires. I don't think Mahomes would have been as good if he didn't sit behind Alex Smith for a year.

They need to free my nigga Burrow.
Or just get a better O line. They'll do the former rather than the latter though.

It was still the 5th round at that point. No teama, no matter the situation, are looking for their starting QB there. Sure, the starting QB is alot more shakey in Cleveland, but Dillon Gabriel was already selected at that point. The dumb, retarded gorilla nigger chose:

- Going to a horribly mismanaged organization with an already overfilled QB room.

over

- A competent, well-ran organization to backup an MVP QB that occasionally misses games.

Shedeur is a bonafide retard. I'm convinced Jimmy Haslam explicitly told him that he'd get the keys when his daddeh jumped ship to the NFL next year. I can't imagine the insanity considering Colorado is currently an absolute clownshow ATM.

It's a crazy level of incompetence. Since losing the Super Bowl, they have brought in eight different guys to start from free agency and drafted five guys. It's actually impressive how much they do, they can't even put an average line in front of him.

The thing is, McDaniel might not be bad as an OC - unfortunately, he hasn’t evolved his playcalling, at all, and other teams have enough tape to figure out whatever he’s going to do, and that’s before we get into how late he seems to make up his mind on what he wants the Dolphins to run every play.

And that’s before getting into the fact that Tua, who seems to click with McDaniel’s style, has essentially speedrun CTE and has pudding inside his skull more than anything else.

Could always be worse - he could be Josh McSnakeOil…

Normally I’d try to find a silver lining, but the Bengals basically live and die off Burrow playing out of his mind and scoring 50 a game before being let down by the defence anyway.

Hopefully its not serious, otherwise at least you know you’ll be free in January?
