I still find it funny the Dolphins balked on Brees because of his injury but saw no issue going for Daunte Culpepper while he was still rehabbing a shredded knee.
Eh when Brees was going through it it was his throwing shoulder I believe. Knee injuries are no joke but you can recover. Throwing arm injury you might never be the same (spoiler, he was even better lol)
@@Radel623 Dude had messed up three ligaments in his knee so even by the standards of knee injuries that was a bad one, especially for a QB whose mobility was supposed to be one of his best assets.
And let's not forget his performance in relief of injured Brady in the 2001 AFC Championship. They might not have made the superbowl without Bledsoe. Maybe not the way he expected to earn a championship ring, but he still played an important part that year.
@@TexasNationalist1836 wasn’t happy about losing his starting position while being the 100 million dollar arm, but he handled it with class. And like the other comment said, he really did finish that afc championship game.
@@johnchedsey1306 absolutely. This is going to sound stupid but it wasn’t until 2004 that I really believed in Brady. The Patriot missile was my favorite player, I still have his jersey and signature on my wall next to Brady’s.
@@TexasNationalist1836 There's some conflicted feelings in general. Bledsoe isnt super happy that his legacy is tied to being the guy before Brady, and naturally as a competitor and starter he has his pride which probably inspired at least a touch of jealousy. But he handled it like a professional by and large.
I still find the Watson trade the single worst trade for a QB ever. They gave him record money, record guaranteed money, and when he isn't injured he forgot how to play ball. Cleveland could have done so much more with those draft picks. Epic fail on their part.
They also forced Baker Mayfield ( who lead them to their first playoff win in decades) to continue playing while he had a shoulder injury, and said he wasn’t a winner. Talk about a Browns move.
Even if Deshaun wasn't a predator, that trade would still be the worst in NFL history. The Browns gave Patrick Mahomes money to guy who's barely a third stringer right now.

For those who are interested. The pick Denver for Jay Cutler received turned into Robert Ayers and Richard Quinn who they traded up for in 2009. Ayers was a rotational DE for 9 seasons, Quinn was a TE who played on special teams and was out of the league in three years. The bears pick at 84 the Steelers picked WR Mike Wallace who played for 10 years and had one pro bowl. In the 2010 draft Denver conducted a series of trades Which resulted in Philadelphia getting Brandon Graham, Seattle getting Earl Thomas, Denver got Demaryius Thomas, Dallas getting Dez Bryant, and New England getting Devin McCourty.
@@tokivikerness8863 I think people forgot about how bad the Watson trade was for a minute, when Russ got traded to the Steelers with all that dead cap against Denver. Now with the recent Watson injury, everyone is back to talking about how that franchise is basically ruined for at least 4 or 5 years
Broncos are fortunate that Sean Payton and Bo Nix so far look promising. The dead cap however will always keep them a year behind from filling out the roster.

You should never trade high picks for a QB when you dont have the right Coaching Staff and surroundings to help him out. Thats why Only Stafford and Goff worked.
The thing is they usually think making these trades are a good idea in the first place because they think they already have that foundation. One QB away and all that jazz. Hell when Goff went to Detroit we thought that was where his career was going to die.
@@SuperMurray2009 the sample size for both Lance and Purdy indicated that Purdy was inarguably better than Lance at that point. Not really much point in keeping Lance after that.

Nah, a dynasty was with born in Dallas with that trade. It hasn’t surpassed, not yet at least. If the Texans go on to win a couple chips, then we’ll talk. It would cool to see it happen to another team from Texas.
The trade that sent Wentz to Indy was a conditional pick that became a 1st round pick. And they used that pick to eventually trade for AJ Brown. The Eagles ended up fleeting 2 NFC South franchises
The Stafford/Goff trade is already an unbelievable win/win trade. But if the Lions reach their first super bowl with Goff as their qb then I think that trade has to go down as the all time best, mutually successful deal in any pro American sport.
The Groper Cleveland trade was probably the worst they traded away there future talent there franchise QB and gave away all there cap space for a guy who can't even throw for more than 300 yards in a game or win a game for that matter. It showed how bad of an owner Jimmy Haslam is and that the future of the Browns is gonna be back to sucking for probably the next 10 years. The worst trade of all time was the Herschel Walker trade thanks Vikings due to your incompetence. we got to listen to every Cowboys fan talk about how great the 90s were and "how bout them Cowboys". Yet still, after that dumb trade, people still do stupid trades cause there are a lot of stupid owners and gm's, I guess. Edit: I see alot of people saying the Groper Cleveland trade was the worst, but as a Cleveland fan, almost all of our trades or signing whatever have sucked. Like Bobby Mitchell to the Skins infavorer for Ernie Davis who didn't play cause of Cancer rip. Oh, and after that, we didn't resign Jim Brown. We also got rid of Ernst Byner only to watch carve the league up and win a ring, releasing Alex Mack, trading TJ Ward, whiffing on almost all of our 2010-2020 draft picks, drafting Tim Coach who wasn't mobile at all compared to McNabb, passing on Brady, trading down in the 2011 draft. Trading away hall of famer Paul Warfield for a 1st round draft pick that we wasted, along with trying to overpay for A.J. McCarron. Signing Andre Rison to a stupid amount of money, releasing Bernie Kosar, trading for Corey Williams, Signing Jeff Garcia, Signing Kenny Britt, and basically almost all free agents have sucked for the Browns or had little impact. And much, much more. Ever since Paul Brown was fired, we have been in a dying state.
I think the Watson trade is the worst, because the Browns are going to be stuck either with him, or the dead cap caused by him, at least in the Hershel Walker trade, there was no salary cap implemented at the time, so it was easier to get rid of him.
The browns have fared worse by far than the vikings did. Threw away a franchise qb in baker, turned the texans from a dumpster fire to contender overnight, and are absolutely fucked on the salary cap for the next 2 years. The vikings missed the playoffs 2 years, had 1 losing season, and then made the playoffs nearly every year for a decade
The LA/Detroit trade should be studied by execs, coaches, and scouts for a generation to come. No small part of why Detroit fared so well was their scouting department who has been elite at finding quality players in the draft, the picks panned out in no small part because of them. If anything Goff was a bonus to the trade, the fact he worked out was both a pleasant surprise and also something still in the range of expected outcomes given his pedigree thus far, he just needed a solid environment and he found that on a team eager to prove themselves. LA's success was immediate and relatively self-evident. I won't say Detroit *won* the trade, but the fact the trade worked to their benefit as much as it did was the result of a lot of savvy.
As a Rams and Goff fan, I'm so happy for his success. I never got the hate he got when playing for the Rams. I love watching the Lions play. I hope they go far
Thanks for the UFL 2009-2012 mention! That league meant a lot to me during some rough years. I’ve always rooted for the underdogs. Anyway, great video!
Eh idk if you can say they were all duds at 11:11 There was like 3 trades involved with that 2010 First Rounder but they eventually ended up with Demaryius Thomas
As a niners fan I always look back at Alex Smith I can’t help but smile His career was so dramatic and yet his prime was underrated and his leadership and ability to adapt is unmatched
Timestamps: 1:41 - Drew Bledsoe to Buffalo Bills 3:13 - Daunte Culpepper to Miami Dolphins 6:22 - Brett Favre to New York Jets 8:30 - Jay Cutler to Chicago Bears (Honorable Mention: Matt Cassel to Kansas City Chiefs) 11:20 - Donovan McNabb to Washington Redskins 14:06 - Carson Palmer to Oakland Raiders 16:52 - Alex Smith to Kansas City Chiefs 19:00 - Sam Bradford to Vikings 21:36 - Jimmy Garoppolo to 49ers 24:15 - Matt Stafford to LA Rams 26:26 - Carson Wentz to Indianapolis Colts and Washington Commanders 28:37 - Russell Wilson to Denver Broncos 30:06 - Deshawn Watson to Cleveland Browns 33:27 - Matt Ryan to Indianapolis Colts 34:25 - Aaron Rodgers to New York Jets
The pre-2000 one for me is John Hadl to the Packers. We gave up way too much for an aging qb and it probably hurt his chances to get into the Hall Of Fame! Thanks for another great video!
I guess the general rule of thumb here is don’t trade for a Philly QB. McNabb was cooked, and the Eagles got Nate Allen (above average safety who only left due to a better deal from Oakland) and Nick Foles (his 27-2 season was pretty special + his later Super Bowl) Bradford turned into Derek Barnett who recovered the Brady fumble in the Superbowl and Sweat who is an above average DE. Wentz turned into a pair of pro-bowl WRs in AJ Brown and Smith, a potential All Pro DT in Jalen Carter and potentially another starter in Cooper DeJean.
wentz being with reid will resucitate his career. sitting on the bench is helping him. sometimes serious knee injuries take years to get right. if mahomes is ever hurt, watch wentz win them a supe. wentz was special when he was healthy
I never really got it either. I kept hearing about his potential in Denver but never really felt like I saw it in action and him comparing himself to John Elway when he hadn't won anything with them didn't help my opinion of him either. I always remember how South Park made fun of him back in the day. "you suck right now, but my dad says you could be good some day"
He had over 4,500 yards his last year in Denver, but the number of interceptions should have been a red flag. That and the fact that Denver was willing to trade him after only his third season. I have to admit that I liked the trade at the time, but yeah, we got fleeced big time.
Suggestions can you the NFC East: The Musical Chairs of a Division as in every team won the division from 2005 to 2023 without any repeated winner since the early 2000s Eagles ( 2001 to 2004)
McNabb carried the eagles on his back, and they traded him like it was his fault. 14 season with Andy Reid, and they couldn't win. Now, his is one of the best coaches in the NFL. 🤷🏿♂️
IIRC it would have forced the Jets to give GB three 1st-round picks if the Jets traded Favre to MN. Releasing him after he “retired” was the best option.
As a lifelong Packer fan and Wisconsin resident, I can tell you that the Mississippi welfare scandal, 'duck' pics, and trump endorsement are everything you need to know about Brett Favre's character.
As a lifelong Bears fan, I hated him, but still respected him because of how good he was. Not anymore. The same goes for Rodgers as well after his anti-vax witchdoctor bs.
@ Rodgers can make his own medical choices, whether or not you’d do the same. Favre, on the other hand, committed fraud and sexual harassment. Those are crimes, not opinions.
I knew Mcnabb was a dummy from his wonderlic score but I was shocked when I saw him away from Andy Reid, it was like he forgot (or rather never knew) how to play QB. I understood why he wasnt afraid to trade him to Washington. Props to Andy Reid btw for getting the most of out his QBs. Mcnabb, Alex Smith, Michael Vick, Favre, and Mahommes. We’ve seen what happens when he gets a hold of great ones but we also saw how he was able to elevate the ones that weren’t quite there.
ding ding ding ding!!!! you are the winner!!!! btw...mcnabb never knew how to play qb. without reud he wouldve been a collossal bust. we shouldve drafted akili smith
Chiefs fan here I got nothing but love and respect for Alex Smith. That guy has been through so much and gave his heart and soul to Kansas City. We can’t thank him enough.
McNabb didn’t just lose a super bowl with the eagles. He partied the week leading up to the big game and was throwing up from dehydration during the second half. Spygate didn’t do shit. If he took that as seriously as he should have eagles would have pulled it out, but he didn’t. What a fraud. Thank God Nick Foles made up for it over a decade later.
It’s still funny seeing Aaron Rodgers following in Brett Favre’s footsteps with the move to NYJ, if he goes to Minnesota after NYJ, it’ll be the funniest thing ever.
the bryce young trade should be here, considering that the status of both young and williams in the draft process could be considered a premature blockbuster trade
Sean Peyton doesn't get the criticism he deserves for the Russel Wilson situation. Coaches are supposed to put their players in a position to succeed. Not take a QB who built a HOF career on scrambling and improvising, then stuff him into a precise timing, pocket passing system. Not to mention the scapegoating that went on.
I was in Disney World when the Bledsoe to Buffalo trade happened. I was in line for a ride when I overheard a couple dads talking about Bledsoe getting traded and I asked "Where?" and when they told me Buffalo I was convinced they were joking since it'd be within the division.
Lions moved on because Stafford wanted out. Which was totally understandable from his point of view and honestly, it made sense for the Lions as well. I wasn't all that shocked when they announced he asked to be traded. It worked for both teams. Rams got their Super Bowl and the Lions are one of the best teams in the league now and definitely used those picks to help stack their team.
As a giants fan, it’s crazy to me how people forget the Giants were bad 5 years before DJ even got here. Sure the guy isn’t good but we haven’t had a good o line in a decade or even a decent receiving core since the odell days
As a broncos fan it’s worth noting that the longtime ownership under the beloved Pat Bowlen had ended, and with his children among others squabbling over the team it went up for sale - with the Wilson trade (they also pursued Rodgers) being a big part of increasing the sale value with the story being sold that this was a buy and win a Super Bowl quickly kind of team if they had an all pro QB
Deshaun Watson was the worst. No single player has ever had so much money and assets wasted on them. With all the baggage, Watson should have been a discount free agency pickup.
I work at the university of central Florida and they have an indoor practice facility and have had one since at least 2011. Crazy the Bengals didn’t have one.
Lions and Rams are a definition of a win-win trade. We got a SB and Stafford has been a plus to our offense even with the injuries and up and down play of the team as a whole. Lions seem set for a bright present and future with Goff finding a home that could lead them to the same prize. Quite happy how it worked out.

Edit: I see alot of people saying the Groper Cleveland trade was the worst, but as a Cleveland fan, almost all of our trades or signing whatever have sucked. Like Bobby Mitchell to the Skins infavorer for Ernie Davis who didn't play cause of Cancer rip. Oh, and after that, we didn't resign Jim Brown. We also got rid of Ernst Byner only to watch carve the league up and win a ring, releasing Alex Mack, trading TJ Ward, whiffing on almost all of our 2010-2020 draft picks, drafting Tim Coach who wasn't mobile at all compared to McNabb, passing on Brady, trading down in the 2011 draft. Trading away hall of famer Paul Warfield for a 1st round draft pick that we wasted, along with trying to overpay for A.J. McCarron. Signing Andre Rison to a stupid amount of money, releasing Bernie Kosar, trading for Corey Williams, Signing Jeff Garcia, Signing Kenny Britt, and basically almost all free agents have sucked for the Browns or had little impact. And much, much more. Ever since Paul Brown was fired, we have been in a dying state.
I think the Watson trade is the worst, because the Browns are going to be stuck either with him, or the dead cap caused by him, at least in the Hershel Walker trade, there was no salary cap implemented at the time, so it was easier to get rid of him.
The browns have fared worse by far than the vikings did. Threw away a franchise qb in baker, turned the texans from a dumpster fire to contender overnight, and are absolutely fucked on the salary cap for the next 2 years.
The vikings missed the playoffs 2 years, had 1 losing season, and then made the playoffs nearly every year for a decade
The LA/Detroit trade should be studied by execs, coaches, and scouts for a generation to come.
No small part of why Detroit fared so well was their scouting department who has been elite at finding quality players in the draft, the picks panned out in no small part because of them. If anything Goff was a bonus to the trade, the fact he worked out was both a pleasant surprise and also something still in the range of expected outcomes given his pedigree thus far, he just needed a solid environment and he found that on a team eager to prove themselves.
LA's success was immediate and relatively self-evident. I won't say Detroit *won* the trade, but the fact the trade worked to their benefit as much as it did was the result of a lot of savvy.
As a Rams and Goff fan, I'm so happy for his success. I never got the hate he got when playing for the Rams. I love watching the Lions play. I hope they go far
A rare trade where honestly both teams are happy with the results
Thanks for the UFL 2009-2012 mention! That league meant a lot to me during some rough years. I’ve always rooted for the underdogs. Anyway, great video!
Brees and Brady in the same division would have been so awesome
*prime Brees & Brady
Eh idk if you can say they were all duds at 11:11
There was like 3 trades involved with that 2010 First Rounder but they eventually ended up with Demaryius Thomas
As a niners fan I always look back at Alex Smith I can’t help but smile
His career was so dramatic and yet his prime was underrated and his leadership and ability to adapt is unmatched
BLESSED DAY!!
As a browns fan it’s Deshaun without a doubt

The pre-2000 one for me is John Hadl to the Packers. We gave up way too much for an aging qb and it probably hurt his chances to get into the Hall Of Fame! Thanks for another great video!
Perfect Thursday night prewatch to a shootout between 2 of the best QBs rn🔥🔥
I guess the general rule of thumb here is don’t trade for a Philly QB.
McNabb was cooked, and the Eagles got Nate Allen (above average safety who only left due to a better deal from Oakland) and Nick Foles (his 27-2 season was pretty special + his later Super Bowl)
Bradford turned into Derek Barnett who recovered the Brady fumble in the Superbowl and Sweat who is an above average DE.
Wentz turned into a pair of pro-bowl WRs in AJ Brown and Smith, a potential All Pro DT in Jalen Carter and potentially another starter in Cooper DeJean.
wentz being with reid will resucitate his career. sitting on the bench is helping him. sometimes serious knee injuries take years to get right. if mahomes is ever hurt, watch wentz win them a supe. wentz was special when he was healthy
9:14 we gave up THAT much for Jay freakin cutler?
I never really got it either. I kept hearing about his potential in Denver but never really felt like I saw it in action and him comparing himself to John Elway when he hadn't won anything with them didn't help my opinion of him either. I always remember how South Park made fun of him back in the day. "you suck right now, but my dad says you could be good some day"
Damn
Denver though didn’t exactly turn their draft picks into a bargain
I didn’t start watching the bears till 2010 so I didn’t realize what we gave up for him
He had over 4,500 yards his last year in Denver, but the number of interceptions should have been a red flag. That and the fact that Denver was willing to trade him after only his third season. I have to admit that I liked the trade at the time, but yeah, we got fleeced big time.
It’s funny how Favre went to the jets after leaving from the packers, then arod
Hopefully we'll see Rodgers in Minnesota next year to complete things.
@ lol he won’t, they’ll have McCarthy back and Sam as backup buy it would be cool
@Landon.25 😂😂😂
You ain't lying! They saw Rodgers go to the Jets and said, "Oh hell no! We are NOT repeating that history! Get a QB now!"
You always bring the quality content, been a fan for years. Love to see it!
Imo, one if your best videos ever. One of my faves along with the Hue Jackson vid.
The Goat has uploaded 💯💯
Should we consider the Watson trade being worse than Ricky Williams' and Hershel Walker's?
Yes.
26:16 some of the best drafting from a trade ever
desharvey watstein will never play again
This video was amazing!
Ending the video with a Jordan Love highlight is *chefs kiss*
Carson palmers demands weren't more money, they were what any ceo would do to turn a company around. The owner just said no. Wow lol.
Calling Jay Cutler Mediocre is crazy disrespectful, thats the greatest bears QB of all time.
1 Cutler
2 McMahon
3 Grossman
4 Douglass
5 Fields/ Trubisky
If Justin fields and Money Mitch are in the top 5 then I’m pretty sure the 4 in front of them are mediocre
Sid Luckman enters chat.
Suggestions can you the NFC East: The Musical Chairs of a Division as in every team won the division from 2005 to 2023 without any repeated winner since the early 2000s Eagles ( 2001 to 2004)
McNabb carried the eagles on his back, and they traded him like it was his fault.
14 season with Andy Reid, and they couldn't win. Now, his is one of the best coaches in the NFL. 🤷🏿♂️
SAC STATE MENTIONED 🔥🔥🔥 stingers up
Love ur vids KTO, keep up the good work. God bless.
The seat geek promo code came in clutch for me a few weeks ago for the IU Washington game
Woo was waiting for the next upload 😎👍
Love your video KTO and keep up the great work you are awesome
I had no idea this was a new video 🤣 ive been watching it for at least 20 minutes now
There was also some clause in the Favre deal where he couldn't be traded to the Vikings
IIRC it would have forced the Jets to give GB three 1st-round picks if the Jets traded Favre to MN. Releasing him after he “retired” was the best option.
When u here this voice u no it’s boutta be a banger
Watson will go down as the worst trade/deal in the history of sports
you missed 2018 Alex Smith to Washington and 2022 Carson Wentz to Washington, both disasters!
Neither of those were really “blockbuster” I’d say. But it’s only a matter of opinion.
Alex Smith didn't do too bad in DC - still beloved in some ways
@@nickimbasciani7920 They had Matt Ryan to Colts, that definitely wasn't blockbuster.
did you even watch the video ? 2018 Alex Smith is at 17:01
2022 Carson Wentz is at 26:35
@@HonchoHarley that's Smith to KC and Wentz to Colts. smh! did you even watch the video?
Video started off with some “Narcos” music 😂 … and I loved it lol
137 million was the biggest contract in nfl history?!? Crazy how much things have changed
As a lifelong Packer fan and Wisconsin resident, I can tell you that the Mississippi welfare scandal, 'duck' pics, and trump endorsement are everything you need to know about Brett Favre's character.
Also cheating on his wife
As a lifelong Bears fan, I hated him, but still respected him because of how good he was. Not anymore. The same goes for Rodgers as well after his anti-vax witchdoctor bs.
@ Rodgers can make his own medical choices, whether or not you’d do the same. Favre, on the other hand, committed fraud and sexual harassment. Those are crimes, not opinions.
Whiney soy libs
I knew Mcnabb was a dummy from his wonderlic score but I was shocked when I saw him away from Andy Reid, it was like he forgot (or rather never knew) how to play QB. I understood why he wasnt afraid to trade him to Washington. Props to Andy Reid btw for getting the most of out his QBs. Mcnabb, Alex Smith, Michael Vick, Favre, and Mahommes. We’ve seen what happens when he gets a hold of great ones but we also saw how he was able to elevate the ones that weren’t quite there.
ding ding ding ding!!!! you are the winner!!!! btw...mcnabb never knew how to play qb. without reud he wouldve been a collossal bust. we shouldve drafted akili smith
reid elevated aj feely (an many others)....miami traded for feely and paid him starters money. feely was a backup in college lol
I like that you put your ads BEFORE the video. Except in the middle of the video.
Bills getting Jerry Hughes for Kelvin Sheppard was a steal
Chiefs fan here I got nothing but love and respect for Alex Smith. That guy has been through so much and gave his heart and soul to Kansas City. We can’t thank him enough.
McNabb didn’t just lose a super bowl with the eagles. He partied the week leading up to the big game and was throwing up from dehydration during the second half. Spygate didn’t do shit. If he took that as seriously as he should have eagles would have pulled it out, but he didn’t. What a fraud. Thank God Nick Foles made up for it over a decade later.
If Favre never tore his bicep and rotator cuff, I fully believe the Jets make the AFC Championship game that year
It’s still funny seeing Aaron Rodgers following in Brett Favre’s footsteps with the move to NYJ, if he goes to Minnesota after NYJ, it’ll be the funniest thing ever.
Packers getting Mathew’s and raji by giving up farve is amazing for that organization
Especially given Matthew’s game-changing forced fumble in SB 45.
the bryce young trade should be here, considering that the status of both young and williams in the draft process could be considered a premature blockbuster trade
5:23 That backgroud music sounds like Now We Are Free
Sean Peyton doesn't get the criticism he deserves for the Russel Wilson situation.
Coaches are supposed to put their players in a position to succeed. Not take a QB who built a HOF career on scrambling and improvising, then stuff him into a precise timing, pocket passing system. Not to mention the scapegoating that went on.
I was in Disney World when the Bledsoe to Buffalo trade happened. I was in line for a ride when I overheard a couple dads talking about Bledsoe getting traded and I asked "Where?" and when they told me Buffalo I was convinced they were joking since it'd be within the division.
I still don't get how it's Matt Ryan's fault the Falcons blew the lead in the Superbowl
Lions moved on because Stafford wanted out. Which was totally understandable from his point of view and honestly, it made sense for the Lions as well. I wasn't all that shocked when they announced he asked to be traded. It worked for both teams. Rams got their Super Bowl and the Lions are one of the best teams in the league now and definitely used those picks to help stack their team.
Idk if you take video ideas, but I think it could be cool to talk about head coaches/ first time head coaches that never got a second chance and why
As a giants fan, it’s crazy to me how people forget the Giants were bad 5 years before DJ even got here. Sure the guy isn’t good but we haven’t had a good o line in a decade or even a decent receiving core since the odell days
The Stafford Goff trade is the best trade of all time, both fitting their new teams and coaches better and bringing success.
11:35 HOLLON MAN WHATS THAT GLORIOUS BEAT PLAYING 😭🔥
So funny how many picks in this video are from 2006
As a broncos fan it’s worth noting that the longtime ownership under the beloved Pat Bowlen had ended, and with his children among others squabbling over the team it went up for sale - with the Wilson trade (they also pursued Rodgers) being a big part of increasing the sale value with the story being sold that this was a buy and win a Super Bowl quickly kind of team if they had an all pro QB
"...why not get out to a game...with Seat Geek"
.... ah there we go :)
Deshaun Watson was the worst. No single player has ever had so much money and assets wasted on them. With all the baggage, Watson should have been a discount free agency pickup.
27:13 I still cant believe that was a real play
I work at the university of central Florida and they have an indoor practice facility and have had one since at least 2011. Crazy the Bengals didn’t have one.
Groper Cleveland was honestly the worst trade
Lions and Rams are a definition of a win-win trade. We got a SB and Stafford has been a plus to our offense even with the injuries and up and down play of the team as a whole. Lions seem set for a bright present and future with Goff finding a home that could lead them to the same prize.
Quite happy how it worked out.
*Johnny Knox was very good but career was cut short by neck injury
*Mcnabb was at the end of his career is why Philly traded him.
As a raiders fan Carson Palmer was not it
The funny thing is that the 6th round pick was more valuable than Watson
