To me cap space says absolutely nothing about how good or bad a team is. Look at Philly, they went out and broke the bank for their team, look at where they are at. Why not save 30 mil and have the exact same record.
I was merely trying to understand why the cap space mattered at all. Would you rather us be like the Vikings and spend every last penny and be 0-4? Just trying to figure out what this obsession is with us not hitting the cap space? Who out there has been worth the money that we missed out on that would have made a singular difference in the beat downs that were the first two games or swung the Chargers loss?
A team that spends a ton of money is not guarenteed a super bowl berth, or even a decent record.
However, a team that is spending $10M-$20M less than any other team in the NFL is going to win nothing. The depth will not be there when someone key gets injured. Championship teams aren’t built on the cheap. Ours is. We let go useful guys like Waters and Smith over money issues. We refused to sign or draft legit NT or RT, even though the FAs were out there.
Guys we could have gone (and I’m not including guys who re-signed with their own teams): Aubreyo Franklin, Manny Lawson, Dawan Landry, Daniel Manning, Stephen Tulloch, Paul Pozlunsky, or pretty much any OT with a pulse. Not to mention re-signing Waters, Edwards, and Smith. Not all of these guys, obviously. But just a better RT and SS could have won us the Chargers game. A couple better LBs (replace Belcher and grrom Houston) and a NT could have been the difference in the first two.
A team’s entire chance of competing should not end when their safety, tight end, and running back go down. It’s crazy that those three spots are critical to any team’s success or failure.

No Sir!
You are a man of pure factual wording, are you not?
You lost your marbles last time I took your words for their obvious context.
Still…… No surprise that you chose to double-down on that nonsense.
jmlamerson;238298 wrote:You seem to want to avoid committing here to saying Cassel will ever be a top QB. I can’t blame you, because you’d look like an overly optimistic homer who was missing obvious dangerous signs if it doesn’t happen. You seem to want to be able to say a couple years down the road, should Cassel flame out :”No, I never supported Cassel, I just thought we should wait and see.”But live a little. Grow some guts. Make a prediction one way or the other.
Oh no! A challenge to my “guts”?
What ever shall I do?
There was no argument here. You just refuse to see your exaggerations for anything less than fact.
I think you are a very smart guy, who is too prideful to acknowledge your own mistakes.
I mean, you went so far as to call Tom Brady (A late sixth round pick) a blue chip prospect, just to try and save yourself from having to admit to the slightest error.
Can you believe that?!?!?!
I know you would enjoy a laugh at anybody else trying to label a late sixth round pick as a blue chip prospect.:lol:
But, just out of shere morbid pleasure…..
What record did Tom Brady get that “greatest passing offense of all time” to the year after Cassel managed 11-5?
I bet it was a whole lot better than the pedestrian Cassel did, wasn’t it?
Don’t you dare say it was 10-6 though. 😆
And, any prediction I would have for Cassel’s future would be less of a statement about Matt Cassel, than about the team/staff around him.

You keep responding to me buddy, not me to you. You obviously care more about my opinion than I’ll ever care about yours.
And you have no guts. That’s good to know.

I’ll leave you alone so as to avoid another temper tantrum.

Bye. I’ll miss your tremendous cowardice. I’ll revisit in a couple years when you say that Cassel was never good and you never supported him.
jmlamerson;238308 wrote:You keep responding to me buddy, not me to you.Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight………………..
But yeah…
Tom Brady: 10-6 after Matt Cassel took the same team to 11-5.
Not bad for a late sixth round blue chip prospect though.

😆While your responding to my old posts is in a way flattering, you really have to get over your need for my company.
Yes, Brady did poorly after coming back from season-ending surgey. You think this helps your point somehow? And Tom Brady would have gone 1st overall if people had realized how good he was. He was a blue chip prospect (seriously, do yourself a favor and look the word up) that no one realized was that great.

How good he was?He wasn’t.
He didn’t break past an average QB Rating until his fourth year as a starter.
He was an effective game manager. But as he grew into a gun-slinger, they quit winning Super Bowls.
He was, at best, a slightly above average QB when they were winning Super Bowls.
Myself, I prefer the three-time Super Bowl champ to the “blue chip” gun-slinger.

Again, I’m flattered that you keep responding to my old posts. Especially because you were out of here before I threw a tantrum. Am I the only one who will respond to you or something? I promise you, it’s just out of fact checking, not as a sign that you have anytrhing to say.
And your inability to understand the term “blue-chip prospect” is passing sad and entering ridiculous.

I understand.
A blue chip prospect is a player rated as the best in the nation…..
And then not drafted until the end of the sixth round!
😆

I lied.
Either way, it won’t be the last time.

You, a liar who doesn’t know what he’s talking about? Get out.
And a blue-chip prospect is one who can’t miss. Like Brady, though no one knew it in 2001. But, hey, whatever wrong definition brings you happiness.
I’m putting the clock at two years until you pretend you never liked Cassel at all. That sound right?

So, blue chip has nothing to do with a player’s rating?

Sure, a player is ranked “can’t-miss. ” In Brady’s case they were wrong. What’s going over you head here?
And you’re still responding to my initial post. Flattering, but get a life.

So, wait a minute….
You don’t like me?
But I NEED you to like me!!!!
So, since Brady wasn’t rated as a blue chip, he was a blue chip anyway?
It is a rating.
😆 😆 😆

It *is* a rating. That can be either pre-draft or post-draft. What’s going over your head here?
And I feel the need to take your conversation here to its end. If I don’t talk to you, who will?
