    NFL 2017 NFL Season

    So the Panthers fired their GM just over a year after making it to the Super Bowl. Granted, his decision to franchise tag Josh Norman and then waiting until long after free agency was over to rescind the tag was his undoing, but then again, didn't Dez Bryant mock that the Redskins should get their money back based on Norman's play last year? If he's right, then the Panthers are justified letting Norman go sign with a team dumb enough to back the Brinks truck for him.

    Norman = blah

    Always went with a make-shift secondary it seemed... thinking the front seven could get plenty of pressure.
    When they didn't... they got shredded. Offense is going to be fine.

    A lot of rumors that the GM was "next in line step up" and the owner wanted to keep the core together.

    I will never understand why teams play their important players in the preseason so they can risk tearing their ACL in a meaningless game. LeCharles Bentley's mistake in suffering his career ending knee injury during his first snap of training camp with Cleveland was showing up for training camp.

    I'm a billion percent fine with the Jets strategy of tanking to get a Quarterback. The best QB I saw in my lifetime was Chad Pennington, and 1 Year of Testaverde. Sam Darnold/Josh Rosen. Don't really care.

    It seems like the QB class coming out should be pretty solid.

    And the Chargers' slant-eyed kicker shanks another game ending field goal. This is why Trump won.

    NFL is going to regret allowing Stan Gronke to strong arm his way into LA.

    Over/Under Raiders outdrawing Rams AND Chargers when they move to Las Vegas?

    I'm not going to pretend they would have but it's kind of hard for the Chargers to come anywhere near the USC attendance when they don't have that many seats.

    Of course the Raiders will outdraw them. They have a cult following because people like pirates.
