GB should trade Rodgers while they still can get something for him, some organizations are so QB desperate they will give up the farm for a QB, just look at the Watson and Wilson deals.

I am not a cowboys fan but they did go 12 - 5 in maybe the best division in football (3 teams left in the playoffs). Tampa Bay may have been 8 - 9 but the Buccs were a good defensive team this season and dallas beat the Brady Buccs fairly convincingly at Tampa.

The list of Rodgers suiters is pretty short. He want's to go to a ready made super bowl team and have complete control over the offense. Those teams that are that good already have their QB, and bringing in an old, set in his ways QB who has become very needy isn't a good idea.

How are you so consistently wrong, on every topic? You seem to have confused Los Angeles and Green Bay. Either that, or you have never been anywhere near Wisconsin in the last 30 years. Green Bay LOVES the guys on the Packers, and care deeply about their QB.
It really is amazing isn't it? I've never seen a poster get things wrong on nearly every topic AND every post. His whole rant missed by a mile.
If you call a quarter of the league a short list then for once you'd be right.

I think you're mistaken. But that's not new.

Harbaugh is still at Michigan, right?
I know they've got Love, but do you think that trading Rogers and a couple picks to Vegas (reunite with Adams) for pick 7 to draft another QB and then draft a WR would be plausible or smart? Would either team go for that.

Ah, see that’s where you’re messing up.I think you're mistaken. But that's not new.
really don't think Rodgers will be back in GB, just a feeling he may go to the Raiders...

The NFL kinda screwed the pooch with their handling of the KC, Bills & Cincy seeding/home field situation but they appear to be moving to neutral field Conference Championship game locations. 2 mini Super Bowls before the Super Bowl. Cities bidding for the game, entertainment acts/singers budding to perform at halftime, corporations buying suites, fans buying tickets…..

The NFL is telling us, without telling us, that neutral-site conference championships may become the norm
Sometimes, it takes careful analysis to understand where the NFL’s hockey puck is going.

Hopefully this won't be a permanent fixture. No point in being a #1 seed if you dont get to hold the conference championship.The NFL kinda screwed the pooch with their handling of the KC, Bills & Cincy seeding/home field situation but they appear to be moving to neutral field Conference Championship game locations. 2 mini Super Bowls before the Super Bowl.

Viable options via dome if neutral:
Atlanta
Arizona
Dallas
Detroit
Houston
Indianapolis
Las Vegas
Los Angeles
Minnesota
New Orleans
However, I would like to see a cold weather environment. So maybe New York? Perhaps rotate championship games between LA and New York.
I still hope that they remain traditional.

No. 2 TV viewers enjoy watching games where the elements are involved, I know I do, maybe Vegas not as much.

Based on an assumed $225 mil team cap for 2023, Overthecap.com has:
* Bengals - $43.9 mil in cap space
* Ravens - $28.1 mil
* Steelers - $1.4 mil
* Browns - over $14.4 mil
Bengals big jump will be in 2024 when Burrow’s new contract begins, assuming the Bengals extend his contract this off season
* Bengals have Wilson, Higgins & the safety as their big free agents and the Burrow extension.
* Ravens are pigeon toed by the Jackson situation so they will most likely not be big spenders this off season. If they move on from Jackson, all bets are off. Just had the OC resign.
* Steelers will look to extend OLB Highsmith and try to resign CB Sutton. Doubt if they sign any high profile free agent, maybe a depth guy or two.
* Whatever the Browns do, they are already talking about redoing Watson contract to try & free up cap space, it will be the absolute wrong thing to do and they will execute it as poorly as one can.

I gave effective CAP space, not total CAP
Effective Cap Space: the cap space a team will have after signing at least 51 players and its projected rookie class to its roster.
Then again, maybe not. While I was typing this Lawrence just threw another interception...
I agree, sometimes it pays to be more lucky than good. Defense bailed them out.

Jalen Hurts good ex. of just being at the right spot at the right time as far as the draft went.
Giants overachieved quite a bit this season. Got picked apart by an Eagles team that was running on all cylinders for the first time in over a month.
The winner of SF/Dallas will have their hands full next week.
