We should be placing bets on who gets cut or traded. No way do they roll into the season with 4 QBs.

I think the Browns could start the season with 4 QB's, at least for a few weeks before they send someone packing. They would have to sacrifice a special teams player to do so, but nobody is thinking the Browns are going anywhere so i dont see the big deal if they hold them for a bit.

As unusual as it sounds, I still think that Kenny Pickett has the best shot at starting week 1 and also the most likely to be traded before the season.

It would be interesting to watch.

In Pittsburgh, I'm hoping Rodgers retires, we go with Mason Rudolph, and by week 8 when we're 2-6, Howard gets the nod.

Stephon Diggs is an idiot.
The New England Patriots' Stefon Diggs was not present for Wednesday's voluntary organized team activity, one day after a video of the wide receiver surfaced on social media in which he was on a boat and flashed an unidentified pink substance while surrounded by three women.

I didn't get that either. Must be a scheduling thing?

FPI was giving us #6 ranking. Which feels too high.

Steelers-Dolphins talking trade for TE Smith.

Makes total sense. The Steelers already are loaded at TE, and their projected starting QB is a career backup. :roll:

Lions lose their C.

BTW, that pink powder in the Diggs social media post was pink cocaine. I did not know that was a thing. Seems like his post should be a bigger deal.

PFF puts Tomlin on the hot seat.

Their liberal owner's white guilt is pretty strong. I don't know that a single losing season will be enough. I think Tomlin has to reach rock bottom.

We're told the players love Tomlin, but there's been smoke for years that his act has grown stale. Pickens hasn't lavished praise upon him, the DL we lost to Buffalo has come out and said Tomlin and Khan have no idea what they're doing, Fields made it very clear that he left because of how he was treated, and these are just the most recent.

Tomlin continues to be a good motivator, but a terrible Xs and Os guy and an even worse hirer.

I know its Kenny Pickett but since he's been in Cleveland there has been more than one occasion that he said about how much he learned in his short time with Philly, no mention of Pittsburgh at all. Many Cleveland reporters have wondered if he's been taking veiled shots at Tomlin by doing so.

Interesting. I'm sure Kenny is doing that intentionally.

Fire Mike Tomlin!

At least the Smith trade seems to be off the table.

I genuinely hope it works out for all and we win the Super Bowl.

However, I do not believe that will happen.

It's more likely that they'll muddle their way to a just above .500 season and we'll continue to hear what an amazing coach Tomlin is...Will this be the year I snap? :D
