    Dividing America. :weary: He's not the one doing that.
    Yeah, interesting take for sure.

    Yeah, that comment caught me by surprise too... it’s quite the take.

    How old and removed from the NFL must Colin Kaepernick need to be before activists and journalists* stop demanding he be given a shot to replace a teams QB?  57?  Do we have 16 more years of this?  Not to mention he has found a much more lucrative career (dividing America) that doesn't involve having 300 lbs guys trying to kill him.
    This comment is more egregious than saying Andy Reid runs a nuthouse.

    Guessing he is joking, as he normally is with things like that.  As a joke, I laughed at it.  (And, I am a fan of Kaep)
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    You don't need to be objective to know there are a handful of teams who run good organizations.  Super Bowl rings or not.  Andy Reid is one of those handful of coaches who runs a good organization.  I don't necessarily agree with every player who is part of his organization (Hill), but he has the infrastructure to keep things from going batshit.

    I hope the topic of whether or not Kaep should be on an NFL team or not gets talked about for several years to come.  After Chad Henne went down, I was hoping the Chiefs would consider him backing up Mahomes.

    stupid Bears is right (coming from a fan). That will go down as an all time biggest draft day blunder.

    Here's a fun question.  Who made the biggest mistake?  The Bears not drafting Mahomes at 2, or the Bills trading away the #10 pick?

    Plus didnt Trubisky only start 1 year @ UNC.....Mahomes, the whole Baseball Background.....its a shame, the ceiling on those 2 guys so one sided

    Even if Mitch gets his head out of his ass....he will never come close to Mahomes

    Bears by far. They gave up a Kings ransom (including a first round pick!) to move up one draft spot from 3 to 2 when the 49ers were not going to take Trubisky anyway (they openly admitted). To not only be that far off in talent evaluation to think Trubisky was better than mahomes and Watson, but also give up a HUGE haul to move up one spot to get him, will forever go down as one of the biggest draft day misses ever.

    Mitch was drafted after his junior year. Not sure if he started any games prior, but if so it wouldn’t be many.  He could turn into Joe f’n Montana and it’s still a horrible move on draft day (breaking news...he’s not turning into Montana).

    Hindsight is 20:20, but at the time Trubisky and Watson were rated much higher than Pat.  It wasn't until about a week before, Pat started shooting up the draft boards.  Originally he was projected in the 2nd round, then late first.  Apparently the Chiefs had been heavily scouting him his sophomore year at Texas Tech and were willing to do what they had to in order to get him.

    People are choosing to take Kaepernick's message completely wrong. It's not his fault stupid fucking people just see black-man-not-standing-for-the-anthem and automatically assume he hates troops and America instead of actually listening to what he has to say.  But yes, let's blame the black man.

    He started 13 games at UNC and went 8-5....not exactly lighting it up.  I try really hard not to think about the Bears taking him over Watson and Mahomes but holy shit what a mess.

    It just goes to show how far this society still has to go.  It's ridiculous how many are in denial that racism is an issue.

    Mahomes playing @ Texas Tech is why some teams weren't as high on him, the run n shoot or whatever was looked down upon. Now you have Arizona Cardinal HC, Kyler, Lamar, Tua Mania, Lincoln Riley next HC (INSERT TEAM TALK) The NFL Mimicks one success and tries to repeat.....Lamar & Kyler look good so far

    Here's a fun question.  Who made the biggest mistake?  The Bears not drafting Mahomes at 2, or the Bills trading away the #10 pick?

    Its not so bad here in Buffalo because:

    a. they got Tre White with the later 1st rounder and he is one of the best young CBs in the league.

    b. other capital acquired with the trade made it possible to get a potential franchise QB (Allen) and potential franchise MLB (Edmunds).  Both look promising so far.  At the time of the 2017 draft, it was pretty clear the Bills were putting all their eggs in the much more promising QB draft class in 2018.

    c. I dont think Mahomes comes close to the same performance on the Bills with the lack of weapons and coaching.

    d. The Bills made the playoffs breaking the longest, nearly 20-year playoff drought the same year as that draft.

    So people here aren't really upset about it at this point.  If everything here fizzles out and the Bills end up at square-1, it will be something that people will wallow in.
