    It's also false. The supermax can't be offered until after this season. The Bucks will be able to offer 5 years, $247 million The most he can get elsewhere is 4 years, $141 million He's not going anywhere. I was with you until the last line. No one but Giannis knows if he's going anywhere, and frankly, Giannis probably doesn't know for certain right now. There are so many other factors at play than just who can offer the most, or players staying put in one place would be much, much more common than it is. We'll do everything possible to keep him, and if I was betting I'd err on the side that says he'll stay, but there's absolutely no way to know with that kind of certainty.

    Gutty win, especially after losing Giannis. Much bigger second half. Matthews looks like he's going to end up being a fantastic signing.
  3. adambr2
    Of course Giannis gets tagged with his 6th on a nothing burger of a foul.

    Marv Albert sounds disappointed at the turn of events.

    Absolute horsecrap call on Ersan. That was 100% a charge on Westbrook and it stole back all momentum in the game. That was the textbook definition of taking a charge.
  6. adambr2
    Hideous start to the season. Let's hope they look a lot better than that in the 2nd half.

    What we really need is the equivalent of another Manny Pina. An equally talented offensive and defensive catcher and a 50/50 split of duties would be perfect. Don't see us being able to bring Grandal back. I think it would probably take about 3/60 to keep him from testing the market.

    I never really got the Mack dismay over missing out on him. Yeah, he's great, yeah, he'd be a beast for us, but not only did they give up a haul, but they're paying full market - his cap hit the next few years is absolutely massive, almost 30M per season. That hit, plus the lack of high end draft capital from the trade is going to make it tough for them to build a good enough core around him to win. Maybe if they had drafted Mahomes, things could be different, but they went all in on Trubisky and they lost. They're peaking too early, and too low. By the time they start to solve all their offensive problems they'll be nearing the end of the Mack era.

    Mapping out the rest of the season: I see one more loss before the bye. All 3 are winnable games, but I'll play the odds and say they drop one. So 8-2 into the bye. @49ers, @Giants, I think they go 1-1 in these games and I think it could easily be beating the 9ers and losing in New York. Redskins, easy win, and I say they beat the Bears at Lambeau. That leaves @Minnesota and @Detroit and I'll call another split there. So, 12-4. Division champs, #2 seed and first round bye.
  11. adambr2
    Yea, my mistake, I forgot the NFC East is our division matchup for the North this year. Still, they're in good shape. Beat the Bears at Lambeau and just split the Minnesota/Detroit road games and you're guaranteed the division tiebreaker over anyone.
  12. adambr2
    Minnesota is really starting to put things together and look dangerous. The good news is, they already have two division losses, and our one loss is to a non common opponent so we are in really good shape for taking the tiebreaker even if we don't win in Minnesota. I'm not a big believer in the Bears. I don't know how long they can hang around with that offense.
  13. adambr2
    Strangely, I feel fairly optimistic about @Chiefs, but not that optimistic about @Chargers. I can't figure the Chargers out. I don't understand how they aren't better.
  14. adambr2
    Who do we want today? Bears, or Saints?

    I don't get this, man. I just said "no shame" and "Raiders are a good team" and "gives us Super Bowl hopes" all in the same paragraph. You think I'm not enjoying the heck out of being a fan of this team right now? Why can I not do that while also acknowledging the things that need to be cleaned up? Why is it necessary for me to bury my head in the sand, lie to myself and pretend that them being "in prevent mentally" was responsible for the defensive performance today if I am not going to have it questioned how I enjoy being a fan of this team? I do think this is a good team on the upswing. Not saying otherwise. My post wasn’t directed at you. I guess it was intended to be more general in nature. I’ve seen quite a bit of consternation following the game all over the place. Hell, Bill Michaels is beating it to death on his postgame show right now. The team just had its best offensive performance in years, and all people seem to want to do is complain about the defense. It’s just a little disheartening, that’s all. I am thrilled with the offense, particularly without their best weapon, and as I said before I think that alone makes them SB contenders if they play offensively at an elite level again. I just want the defense to play at the level they were early in the season, because that defense, with the elite offense we're showing, is not just a contender but perhaps THE favorite. I don't know why they've been playing poorly lately. Maybe Darnell Savage is that important to our defense. I'm not sure.

    Pretty much put himself back in the MVP conversation in one game. I'd say he's probably #2 behind Wilson at this second.

    Yeah, the defense was really bad today. The final score looks a lot more lopsided than the game really was. If Carr hits the pylon before the ball comes out before halftime, this game is probably a shootout. I'd definitely like to see the defense start playing better ball than we've seen since Philly. That said, the Raiders are a decent team on the upswing and recently beat the Bears, so no shame. The offense is obviously trending back to elite status in a hurry, and that alone gives us Super Bowl hopes.
  19. adambr2
    Kevin King is not good.
  20. adambr2
    Finally, the defense with something to hang their hat on today. Good to see.
  21. adambr2
    That's just it. This defense has done nothing positive today, not a thing. But they haven't needed to because Rodgers has controlled the entire game.
  22. adambr2
    Looks like the Packer teams of 5-10 years ago. Rodgers is playing phenomenally today. The offensive line is at least not a weakness, their #1 WR is on his way back and they have a solid to great 1-2 rushing attack. Really no reason to think this offense isn't on it's way to elite status again.
  23. adambr2
    I just do not understand what has happened to this defense. This was all set to be the strength of the team. What changed from early in the season? Carr is embarrassing them. The only time they've stopped him is when he's stopped himself.
  24. adambr2
    Rodgers is playing marvelously and the offense without it's best weapon is really starting to fire on all cylinders. I'm just concerned about the defense right now because they don't resemble the defense from Weeks 1-3 in any way.
  25. adambr2
    Absolutely. There's no way to overturn that based on any look we had, regardless of how much Gruden wants to pout.
