Lions are going to blow this, aren't they?
I was having flashbacks of Rodgers’ Hail Mary. Thought for sure they would blow it. Thanks to god for the Packers’ idiot kicker.
How do they beat Brady AND Rodgers and have a 2-3 record? Typical Lions man.

As much as I'm rooting against a division foe, that flag on Minnesota might be a new low in softness of the personal foul calls

Are you talking about the Browns kicker?

Barkley is flat out amazing. This is blasphemy, and I never thought I'd say this...but he is the closest thing to Barry since.

Always laughed at people who said Reggie Bush or LeSean McCoy were Barry-like. Those guys weren't even remotely close. Barkley actually is. And in the era where they can't hit like they used to be able to and defenses are playing 5 or 6 DB's all game long because everything is spread out- he is going to put up crazy numbers in this NFL as long as he stays healthy. And with his style, he should last longer than a guy like Adrian Peterson did. Peterson sought out contact, didn't really make people miss, was more of a punisher.

I don’t know. Part of me hated it. 
That was some pathetic defense. 
Chiefs might have the worse defense in the NFL. Patriots might have the 2nd worst. 
Belichick is suppose to be a defensive genius. He hasn’t had a defense in 10 years and every year they just get suckier and suckier. That New England defense is terrible.

Bill has to pay Brady, the O-line and a few WRs

no money for the defensive side of the ball

besides, the Chefs have been shredding every defense they've played

Huh? Brady is underpaid relative to other QBs. He takes a home town discount every contract. 
They don’t have any high paid WRs. They refused to give Amendola or Cooks money, which is why they traded Cooks and let Amendola walk. 
The OL? That OL is all no name low draft picks on rookie contracts. The one guy they had on that OL that was a pro bowl player was Nate Soldier- who they let walk and NY Giants paid him a lot.
That high price CB Stephon Gilmore who was supposedly the best CB on the F/A market that Bill signed last year in F/A to the $50 million contract- looks like a big fat waste of money. Could’ve gotten someone a lot cheaper to be an average CB.

Gronk is the highest paid TE in the league, and there are only like 10 that make even half of what he does.

But yeah, they spent a lot of money on the secondary, and it's not panning out.  I think McCourty is the highest paid safety in the NFL, and as you said Gilmore is a top 5 paid CB.

Players want a Union give them a Union.Base salary the same for everyone - the rest incentives.Put an end to crap like that.Look at the season Denzel Ward(i.e.) is having as a rookie,but he can't get that coin.BB would make that swap today I don't care if one's a CB and the other a S

I've often thought that in the NFL that would actually work.  Every team spends basically right to the cap anyway.  So you would basically be eliminating free agency, but the players as a whole wouldn't be harmed by it, if they truly are a union.
Obviously free agency in baseball drives salaries as a whole up, but in a capped league, where every team spends right to the cap, it wouldn't, you would just be redistributing the same amount of money equally.  Less roster movement I think would make for a more interesting league too, more developed rivalries.

first thing the player's union would want is a higher cap or no cap.
