Good luck in the current year.
I started mine with a Super Bowl win.
You didn't.
You got zero.
seriously fora group thats won 1 time never seen more obnoxious fans
What??? You are off your rocker. Guy is still fantastic. You should have just stuck with your regressing comments instead. Technically they were true. Best back in the league by a lot to best back in the league by a little is technically regressing.He's a compiler st this point. Lots of guys can get 1800 yards with 406 touches. Just reality . 2014 Bell was elite, even 2016. Last year Bell just got the ball a lot
YPC is pretty fickle usually. No, Bell isn't averaging 5 every single year. There's being out in front and then accusing him of being a compiler.He's a compiler st this point.

What else do you call a guy with average metrics but a lot of attempts?? Unlucky ?YPC is pretty fickle usually. No, Bell isn't averaging 5 every single year. There's being out in front and then accusing him of being a compiler.
I would be very surprised if most GMs had a choice to start a team and took Thomas over BellDoes anyone with a straight face take Le'Veon Bell over AJ Green, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown when they signed their last contracts? Demaryius Thomas?
Today probably not. Back in their walk years? I bet they'd pick Thomas.I would be very surprised if most GMs had a choice to start a team and took Thomas over Bell
But Zeke is the only reason Dak is any goodYou're nuts lol. The best RBs in the league are marginally better than average backs . That's why they dont get paid. RBs are a dime a dozen
Yeah, the logic with that argument isn't very good even with elite RB's. Tyron Smith if anything was a bigger loss for the Cowboys I thought as an outsider.But Zeke is the only reason Dak is any good
No it's completely different IMO. Pitt already has a SB winning QB and plenty of offensive talent around him. They are a SB caliber roster already with him and have been on the verge a few times. Should they have offered what they did? More? I don't know but your description of what you think Minn should have done instead of paying AP isn't really applicable here. Plus the salary cap is about 50% higher now than 2011 but the deal offered Bell wasn't really higher than AP got ($14M per year)Take it from a Vikings fan when I say that breaking the bank on an RB is a big mistake. The Vikings handicapped their franchise for 6 years when they decided to pay Adrian Peterson his mega contract back in 2011. They put all of their eggs into the AP basket instead of investing that excess money spent on him back into a few O-line players with a focus of finding a franchise worthy QB instead of trying to find one that could work with AP.
Granted the Bell situation is slightly different. Bell has been much more multi-dimensional as a player than AP, so finding a QB that can work well with him shouldn't but as difficult in theory. That goes both ways though, as Bell has had a HOF QB handing/throwing him the ball and taking pressure off the running game his whole NFL career up to this point. Meanwhile, AP spent the vast majority of his career with QB's who were barely fit to be third stringers. Regardless, while Bell has certainly earned a nice payday, Pittsburgh would be much better off looking to a younger player in the draft or a less expensive free agent and saving than money while letting some other team overpay Bell. RB, even in the case of generational talents like Adrian Peterson, has proven to be a very foolish position to invest super heavily in for the past couple of decades in the NFL. That's just the reality of the situation.
iowa and kirk ferentzWhat else do you call a guy with average metrics but a lot of attempts?? Unlucky ?
I heard that all that Rex Burkhead needs is to get all those touches.....He could be a workhorse as well......What??? You are off your rocker. Guy is still fantastic. You should have just stuck with your regressing comments instead. Technically they were true. Best back in the league by a lot to best back in the league by a little is technically regressing.
He's worth it if you look at what other less effective guys are getting. Dude is incredible. There isn't another RB like him in the league.Imagine thinking someone wants to pay 17M for the most expendable position that's not a ST'er.
It must be an ego thing and he won't back down. I'm sure he'll take his 17 Mil and be satisfied.$17M for a runningback who is going to be 27 in the offseason and has 1,500 touches (inc. receptions) already? Bell is fucking nuts, take your money now.
The highest average is $8M per... so you're basically getting 2 years of salary at the very top end UP FRONT, guaranteed now. The highest guaranteed is $18M not counting rookies so wtf are you really asking for?
What a moron. Really true what they say about most athletes in the NFL... these guys are dumb as fuck.
