All hail the bucs

 

[Minnewildsota]

At least the better team won today

That Rogers Brady handshake was something. Rogers was salt.

 

[57special]

Lotta dropped balls today on both sides.

No way. Rodgers being a little baby? I’m shocked!

@Digitalbooya i just finished work. Why haven’t you posted a tweet of the packers game?

 

[Wild11MN]

Sweet victory in the early game.

Why does the NFL still have on-field refs doing replays? The entire process could be sped up so much if they had someone in the box who could instantly look at all reviews. There are so many reviews that could be finished in literally 10 seconds that take minutes because of how it works today.

Not sure what hobbits have to do with this but... ;-)

Goff's value fell off the face of the planet I see.

 

[Soldier13Fox]

I'm pretty pumped that Cruz is back for another year.

 

[a79krgm]

Got a notice in the mail to buy a 12 game season pack for Saints baseball. Saints are now a Twins farm team. Man, I so want to believe I can see a baseball game in person this year.

Absolute steal by the lions.

 

[HotDish]

Absolute steal by the lions.

eh, I'm going to voice my unpopular opinion. I don't think its as much as a steal as just fair value. Rams fans didn't think Goff was any good. I there there is merit in that argument. I think Stafford is a great QB. I think he almost is underrated due to the team he was on. I think 2 firsts is fair value for him. Goff is just getting rid of pricey contract for them to make cap space.

In order for it to be a steal Goff needs to turn into a good QB. This trade makes the Rams real superbowl contenders in my mind.

Meh... fair value for Stafford. Goff was nothing but a throw in so Detroit has a placeholder at QB while they find their real solution elsewhere.

Goff is a terrible QB. was 23rd in the league in quarterback rating for a reason. That was in the simplified offense that the Rams were forced to run because anything more complex confuses him.

McVeigh being the offensive guru he is, was sick of having to simplify things for his QB, and still get little out of him. That's why he was more than happy to give him away.

Nothing unpopular about your opinion. I think most would call it pretty spot on.

 

[keppel146]

They’re definitely going all in, and banking on finding players in the later rounds. I can’t imagine not having a 1st round pick until 2024.

 

[Big Z Man 1990]

Alright the Twins begin their 61st season as a Minnesota franchise soon.

That will surpass the amount of time they spent as the first AL Washington Senators.

 

[TaLoN]

BTW - in case you missed it... the Vikes cut Reilly Reiff today, so yeah... our already bad offensive line now needs a new left tackle as well.

Odd he was cut after a bounce back season, but that's Spielman for you. Cap mismanagement extraordinaire.

 

[Wild11MN]

Just comical at this point.

Cap casualty, but he wasn't worth the top 5 LT salary he was getting this year. Not odd when looking at him being told last year to take a pay cut or take a hike. He probably wasn't happy taking a cut two years running. Not ideal, but not out of the ordinary.

His bones are literally made out of glass lol. How do you crack a tooth eating steak?

Order it well done? idk

 

[TaLoN]

Maybe he was eating a t-bone steak and was cleaning the bone and instead of grazing the bone, accidentally bit down on it more than expected?

Just a thought...

 

[Victorious Secret]

My second guess was he ran into the wall while chewing.
