    He came out against Putin pretty big didn't he? Wouldn't surprise me if total hit job.

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    Yeah I'm not even saying it's likely he gets moved, he could cool off and decide he wants to come back tomorrow for all we know. But if they decide fuck it, full rebuild, they could cut David Johnson for $6M, cut Brandin Cooks for another $12M, and just go cheap on replacements. Right now they...

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    David Johnson is an easy cut that is $6M by himself. You're also only focusing on the total dead cap number and not how much cap space in total is cleared by him leaving. Not that anyone wants to eat dead cap, but in truth this year is the ONLY year the dead cap hit exceeds the total savings...

    Pretty big comeback, although when they said we had more than 40 shots I had to do a double take. Nice win for Craig Anderson, too.

    It probably all depends on how serious he is to force a move out. I can't imagine he would seriously sit out the season, but we've seen guys do it before.

    This is true, although I was a little surprised that Rodgers still had the 3rd best QB rating of all time, with only Mahomes (not really surprising) and Watson (he was surprising to me) ahead of him.

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    They could do a deal with more 1sts over a 2nd this year, and less possible players in return, as well. Frankly if you're trading Watson, it's full rebuild until you get another decent QB (almost certainly through the draft with the extra draft capital they would be getting)...and even with...

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    Well sportstrac or whatever is saying over $10M in space. Plus like I mentioned with moves like cutting David Johnson to create another $6M in room. I'm sure there are other moves that could be made if necessary where it is entirely possible to do it. I mean, if you're trading Watson, it's...

    Some of that shit doesn't look that bad. The new Maw Mounts are all right compared to the ass shit that is the Falkor lite whatever the fuck...and some of those transmog sets.

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    Does this include calculations like rollover cap from last year? A lot of places I'm seeing after releasing Watt the Texans have something like ~5-10M in cap space. Trading Watson only incurs an extra $5M and change to this year's cap. Releasing David Johnson would save $6M or so, as well...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I mean if you were keeping up this whole time (which would have barely been much effort at all). When you consider the campaign ended at 24, and the anima/souls quests take like an hour tops unless you didn't leave some anima WQ's up to do, it's just laughable how slow 25-40 Renown trickles...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    That's what I was worried/trolling about, that it would be semi time gated in that way. It's very nebulous to just keep saying "doing stuff to help your covenant". Renown is a grind in the sense that the campaign/story stuff was done at 24. Frankly the rescue souls/1k anima quests are just...

    Not sure why they'd need to upgrade the teleport station. You already get an Oro portal at level 3, set your hearth in your faction home and you can get around anywhere quick. With the Oro port, Maw just a hop away and Torghast right next door to where you zone in there already.

    If it actually looked like Falkor it would be better. The weird pandaria cloud serpent model but on a furry fox thing is just fucking weird.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Do you mean rep when you say tied to faction? People should be all exhalted ages ago at this point. When they say continue to complete stuff for your faction, I'm not sure what else they could mean other than the Renown stuff we do weekly. Maybe it'll just be when you finish whatever new...

    Honestly I think any of the top 3 WR prospects should do well this time around. If they go that route should be okay. But man picking Raegor one pick before Justin Jefferson hurts

    And more Maw content that people aren't very excited for. More floors in Torghast. Added on stuff to covenant campaigns. Not a whole lot of fun.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The Night Fae flying mount and new armor set look so fucking bad. The other flying mounts were okay/pretty good. Still didn't say exactly when we'll unlock flying, either, just that we'll get it "from continuing to do stuff for our covenant".

    That's actually pretty crazy, although I'm not sure 2 titles, even when back to back, quite qualify for dynasty. You do 3 in 4, or the sustained dominance the Pats did for basically 20 years...those are dynasties.

    That's just some concept art if I'm not mistaken. They've been telegraphing turning Anduin to their side.

    It's just weird it was reported to be two 2nd's, plus a 3rd or 4th in the future, to a 3rd this year, and a conditional 2nd or 1st next year. Also all the talk of the Bears offering a 1st plus more seems like smoke now, too.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Watch flying being after you hit Renown 80...new campaign stuff ends at like 64, then 8 weeks after grinding out souls/anima to 80 you can fly.

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    I don't think it's that big of a risk. If he bombs, they probably will make sure he doesn't play enough snaps to hit that 75% number so it's just a 2nd next year. 2nd next year is roughly equal to a 3rd this year...two 3rds isn't nothing, but it's not anything crazy either. The money their...

    I mean, you're going to be paying at least that much for any dart throw at a decent QB if you think you can contend this year (which they can with a decent one). That's why I was comparing him to those guys. His cap hit for the Colts is only like $22M according to sportstrac
  29. Merrith

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    The money they're paying him isn't that much at all. Around Bridgewater/Alex Smith money. After this year they could cut him with 0 dead cap money. He'll have something like the ~15th highest cap hit among QB's this year (that's right now before any deals are signed this offseason).

    Oof. Okay that hurts a little more. Although it is a 1st next year and not this year.

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    A lot less than what was being reported, though. Curious what the conditions are on the 2nd next year. If that ends up even being just a 3rd, two 3rds to take a shot with how the rest of their team is set up is not that bad at all.

    Ben is better than that version of Petyon, though. But I agree it needs to be a big time D push. They have talent enough at receiver, though, that he could still do a little damage with the O. Clearly they're going to have to restructure his contract, though.
  33. Merrith

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    I think with their defense, Ben can be decent enough that they at least are a playoff team with the potential to upset someone. Their defense is great, but without him they have to play amazing to just be 8-8 team.
  34. Merrith

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    They have no plan behind him currently. If they drop/move him, they are not a threat as a contender until they get a new real QB.

    Well, also having the first 2k yard season...in only 14 games. Even with 2 extra games, only 7 other guys have done it since 1973.

    Yeah, they pushed up rolling restarts...was just in a Torghast run on floor 5 and got kicked. Recruited my last Torghast companion on that run, too. Hope I don't have to redo that, at least. Annoying if I have to do multiple runs to find him again.

    NHL 2021 Irregular Season and Plagueoffs

    Yeah, still worry about goaltending some, but the little losing streak I think was mostly being so short-handed for awhile, with the 4 Russians out because of covid, Kuzy/Samsonov out extended time with it...and guys like Oshie/Vrana/Eller/Schultz all getting injured during that. Plus missing a...

    Wasn't their D pretty banged up? Also Browns were pretty banged up even on offense. OBJ missed most of the year, Landry played hurt a lot of the season, Chubb missed at least 4 games with an injury. If they get that defense going, with their run game, they'll be a tough out for anyone. The...
