2024 General NFL News Thread

[Crossbones]

Last year’s thread was getting messy.

Go!

@Handicapper General, did KC “extend” Kelce to lower his ‘24 cap hit and/or to reward him?

You make one Iliad reference and the thread gets locked.

I guess it triggered PTSD moments for @Crossbones since he was there.

Have to see the numbers, but it's quite likely a both situation. Kelce had no guarantees left, now he has some for 25.

Zeus changed his number to #3.

Ugh, hope he don’t jinx himself like Josh did last season.

Edit: I guess he did it so that LB we drafted could have 35.

The NFL’s first $100M bridge QB!

isn’t Kirk’s contract really 2 years of guaranteed?

Eisen is a blowhead.

His Michigan love was insufferable on draft day and the suit run is tacky.

Might be the first time I’ve heard a ‘raise money for kids with cancer’ fundraiser event called ‘tacky’.

yeah, though his roster bonus vests in 25.

I'm still trying to figure out what a blowhead is. Is that like a cocksucker, or a coke addict?

Oh, a cocksucker for cocaine perhaps.

I posted about it in some other thread, but basically he can be traded next season for a slight cap savings with a lot of dead money, and for a lot of savings in 26.

The cause is great.

The constant overemphasis on his running in a suit gets tiresome. Let me enjoy the draft without mentioning it every five minutes. It is up there with the NFL always having military propaganda center stage.

Eisen is a good dude but he was definitely a bit much this weekend. One of the things that’s made him great through the years is his ability to blend and bring the broadcast together, a lot like Ernie Johnson on Inside NBA. Just nice guys that understand it’s not all about them. Eisen seemed like he was trying to be a little more edgy this weekend. Not sure if they were partying a little or what but it stood out IMO. The segment where they were all crying was an eye roller too.
