NFL.com saying that Sam Bradford could command a $15-$20 million dollar p.a. contract from NFL franchises next season despite below-par stats.

Ever since he was drafted as the No. 1 overall pick and ended up getting rookie contracts changed forever due to his exorbitant salary I reckoned he'd be a bust. Yes he's had injuries, but even then isn't that a hint that you shouldn't exactly pay him that sort of money? If Sam Bradford is earning that money next season, more fool whoever pays him that. Possibly one of the most overrated QBs in modern times.

He'll probably scrape a starting gig somewhere but wouldn't be surprised if he ends up as a backup at all.

Longhorns basically national champs according to maths:

A disgrace to the moniker Spartan.

 

[Martino Knockavelli]

Well their side of the scoreline is spartan, at any rate!!!!!!!!!!!

Said this many times but easily my favourite thing about Stanford making it into big time games is the opportunity it provides for observing middle America getting all salty about the band.

 

[Craig]

Iowa are getting fucking destroyed. I mean they're making the Bama-MSU game seem close.

 

[Martino Knockavelli]

Somebody stop the damn match.

Why can't I find Red Zone on SkyGo???

Some seriously vanilla play calling from the Pats so far. Looks like just trying to avoid any injuries more than anything. Even if it costs the #1 seed we still have the bye week so am good with that thinking about it.

 

[Renegade]

The Jets are going to blow this, it's just too perfect a script for Rex to spoil their playoff chances. Steelers have not been impressive, but they should still have more than enough to dispatch the Browns.

 

[kieran_vale]

Should anyone really be surprised if they did blow it? It's the Jets. It's what they do.

 

[kieran_vale]

Holy shit. Please not Brady now.

 

[JJ1532]

A toasty 1 degree in Buffalo. No wonder they all look freezing.

 

[Renegade]

Holy shit. Please not Brady now.

The AFC playoff quarterbacks will be a complete embarrassment if Brady isn't fit. Garoppolo, Osweiler, McCarron, Hoyer/Yates/whoever, Smith and potentially Fitzpatrick. Looks like Roethlisberger will be sneaking in though. The Steelers must be licking their chops right now.

 

[JJ1532]

And now the Jets miss a field goal. Dear me, nothing going right for them at the moment.

 

[kieran_vale]

Thankfully he's been out on the next series.

As I say you could see this coming from a mile off for the Jets. They may well get their shit together though. The Bills do have a tendency of getting in their own way a lot so they still have a good shout.

 

[JJ1532]

And just like that, the Jets are on the board.

 

[Martino Knockavelli]

Cowboys just ran a fake punt. Down 24-0. In Week 17. With a 4-12 record.

This is destined for the Browns to win on a last minute FG. Don't fuck this up Steelers (and Buffalo).

 

[kieran_vale]

Jets now back in it, nice throw to Decker by Fitz. Credit to him he's had a really good year for the Jets, helps having a very good pair of receivers but still made the throws.

Browns hanging in there.

 

[kieran_vale]

This Pats O-Line is an absolute abomination.

 

[kieran_vale]

That just might be it for the Jets.

Looks like the AFC will be going through Denver then. Looked horrible today the Pats have.

 

[Aberstone]

PLAYOFFS BABY!

 

[Renegade]

I can't believe that Denver might be the #1 seed, they aren't a great team. I expect they'll be one and done in the divisional round, probably against the Steelers. I think the playoffs will still go through Gillette stadium. Feel bad for the Jets, that was just destined to happen.
