It would seem that Miami is the better spot. Feels like he's not a final piece for the Jets. But Jets gonna Jets.

You've got to think no State income tax is going to play into his decision as well.
Jones is better? I am not sure that Jones isn’t the single worst starting QB in the NFL right now and this is with Trubisky becoming the starter for the Steelers. I don’t think Mayfield fixes anything for the Giants, but Jones is only the answer if the question is list a QB that was drafted way too high.
Both franchises can burn in hell, so he fits right in with both of them. It is a move that makes no sense for the Jets and it would making hating either team that much easier.
He is the only player I actively root for to get injured, so give me the Jets and then have his legs snapped on the first play of the season.
I'd much rather him go to the Jets. He won't move the needle there, and he'll be another Leveon Bell type, rotting away with a huge contract.
He would not be enough for the Jets to make the playoffs, but he might be enough for the Jets to beat the Patriots at least once this coming season. Which would suck.
He wasn't happy in an offense where they had a superior running game, which is what Pete wants, so there's no way he'd be happy in Seattle. Baker wants to throw and be the man. Pete wants to run, run, run. Not happening at any price.
Let’s do this, the Dolphins have no players on their current roster meriting hatred/acrimony, and it’ll be entertaining hearing the pained attempts to focus on Tua’s development and how every team probably has scumbags so back off/who cares.
Most importantly, it will make the Chiefs notably weaker because Hill is a unicorn talent in the NFL that demands a concerted game plan on defense.

I wonder how many of us would care if the Pats brought on a guy. I'm pretty sure I'd still watch every Pats game I can even if they had a star player who's a terrible person (at least if the team was good).
He might be, but he's the one they have, he's younger, and he started last season pretty well despite playing on the least talented offense in the league with a bad coordinator, then he got concussed, his already bad offense lost it's best players and he picked up a couple more injuries. I think if you ask me, which of these QBs could be actually good in himself, in a year or two it is Jones, he has more talent, he can run, etc. Baker seems destined to be a guy who can have a good year if you surround him with a ton of talent and feed him play action looks. The difference between the two isn't big.
well baker is in a rock and a hard place because all SF wants from their QB is to be a robot just hand it off and Pitt is hand it off and throw short if i was baker i wouild want my relase and then sign with pitt for 1 year
Yes, that's right, very good. Mean Machine. Black & White, color, same difference. The prison team from The Longest Yard, that's what I mean. Home whites, away blacks, makes no difference. Thank you, Roethlisberger.

I didn’t mean to be Roethlisberger, just wondering why you posted Kris Kristofferson and Semi-Tough.
Motherfucker, Burt Reynolds wore #22 in two football movies? One with Kris Kristofferson? Well, take that ribbon from my hair, shake it loose and let it fall...
Ha ha
I just saw The Longest Yard for the first time about six months ago. Would make for a great SoSH thread.
Who knows, but if an AFC team signed him, Felger would put that team ahead of the Patriots too.
was asking a friend, other than the westerns did Burt Reynolds have a movie where he wasn't a former college football players? Bandit Darville? probably. Shamus McCoy? maybe at fordham but yes. WW Bright? quite possibly. Driver extraordinare JJ McCLue? Seems likely. Gator McKlusky? Without a doubt. Jack Horner--how do you think he first met the Colonel--probably an alumni booster thing where the colonel met the players, right? Congressman David DIlbeck? Again a character who would have walked straight from the practice field into running for office.
Holy shit. I like that kid, but look at his numbers for a 3/30 or 3/36 total deal. Even if it's minimally guaranteed, that's a lot of cake for a wide receiver with 13 career TDs and a high year of 690 yards with Aaron Rodgers throwing to him.
Inflation is whack this year.
It's all about the huge jump in cap space. After the first decrease ever (due to COVID impact), the jump from $182M to $208M is a 14% increase, and the biggest percentage increase in over a decade. Spotrac has a fascinating history of cap values, with unintentionally hilarious citations throughout (e.g what team had the highest team salary in 2021? That's right - the juggernaut New York Jets!). https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/cba/
Tough guy like that growing up in the 1950s would almost certainly have played at least high school football right? Haven't seen the movie in years but my background story for him was some version of "kind of a country kid who went to state school did well then became a bit of a yuppie but still does a lot of macho shit as a hobby." And that guy played football!
But sure he was in like a hundred movies and didn't literally play a college football player in all of them. Just a lot of 'em.
