Having a career year and finally starting to silence the doubters only to injure his knee in the first game the next year is the most Bradford thing ever

Alas, so ends the story of the NFL's Jeremy Renner. Coaches far and wide tried to convince the world he was a star full of fire and energy, but he was merely just glass.
 
Seems like Jerrah and the non-members of this compensation committee think Roger makes too much money

http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/...-impeding-roger-goodell-contract-negotiations

Jones has denied he was a member of the NFL's compensation committee, but league sources say Goodell was informed of his addition in the process within the same time-frame as the commissioner was deciding the eventual six-game suspension of Cowboys star running back Ezekiel Elliott for violation of the league's domestic violence policy that is currently hung up in a fresh court battle.

One league source said Jones now considers himself a representative of the remaining 26 owners who are not on the compensation committee that consists of chairman Arthur Blank (Falcons), Clark Hunt (Chiefs), Robert Kraft (Patriots), John Mara (Giants), Bob McNair (Texans) and Art Rooney II (Steelers).

McNair also has had a strong voice that calls for the dramatic restructuring of Goodell's contract, sources said.

One source familiar with the ongoing drama said Jones has argued persistently for months to the committee that other owners believe Goodell makes "way too much money" and demand a pay-cut and a radical change in the formula that compensates the commissioner. Jones also has complained strongly that several other employees of the league office are over-compensated.

Goodell's earnings of more than $200 million since he was elected commissioner in 2006 -- including $44 million in 2015 -- is at the core of Jones' aggressive strategy in communicating with fellow owners.

One source even countered, insisting, "This is about money and a guy (Goodell) making way too much money on a grossly stupid contract for the job."
 
This Bradford thing is really disheartening. Everybody's always complaining about how few genuinely good QBs there are in the league. Sucks for Vikings fans, they'd have a playoff team if EITHER of their QBs were healthy :(

Also jerry's being ridiculous. He probably takes home 5x a year more from owning the cowboys than goodell did in 2015.

Excited for the Chiefs game. The Eagles will almost certainly lose, but if there's no crazy fuckups this game will do a lot to say how good this team really is

It's being made a big deal enough since the browns haven't been relevant. But today joe Thomas will hit 10,000 consecutive snaps.

We did it

Still has 4 snaps to go. Lets not get hasty....

uhh yeah that's weird (and he obviously meant unknown...proofread La Canfora).

No he is right they did find him:
