how is he better than Winston after a day like today?

lmao one of the funniest sentences ever typed

He's better than Winston because the universe is not just today. Brady once threw 4 INTs in a game, had like a 30 rating or something. I wonder if someone thought "how is he better than _____ (Winston) after a day like today?"

The sun will rise tomorrow. Mayfield had a bad game fumbling. He still threw zero INTS and threw for something like 72% completions, moved the offense up the field etc.

I’m just kidding but not if they go 6-11

even though apparently wins isn’t a QB stat, looks like today shown that losses can be one

the raiders just gave their backup tight end $15m a year! 

 

exactly

The consensus here when Otton got his extension was that he was overpaid at $10 million per. At $10 million per Otton takes up about 1% of the Bucs cap and he is paid as sort of a TE2+ if you look at the market now. So, in hindsight the extension was smart and almost sub-market on a going forward basis and that is the thing that most seem to miss ("going forward basis"). Otton is not some dynamic MOVE TE, but he's not paid like one either.

In recent article JQ estimated that Diaby would be about $27-30 million per, but that was based on the MARKET for an Edge2 rusher. Many balked at the idea of paying Diaby basically the market rate for his position

When Mayfield was up for his prior extension emany freaked out at the idea he would maybe get $40 average. I think he got $33 average but even $40 would have had him around #15 so sort of where he belonged. Now its $55

All NFL players make stupid $ and everyone understandably always wants better players than what we have, but its probably not a winning strategy to refuse to pay players the basic market rate. That was sort of the Culverhouse Method lol

Anyway, seems like Licht and Greenberg are generally pretty good at this now that you can see the TE market.

 

Well Otton looked like a 2 out there today so not a knock on him but he is not a 1.
