    It’s not fair to blame Davante for buying JMcD’s bullshit. They gave up the draft capital, they had the QB he always wanted. They gave him a $140M, $60 sum million guaranteed.

    Then Josh goes and does whatever he was thinking, why? Idk. Carr ain’t great. But to call Jimmy G better than Carr is total crap. He is at most equal to Carr in skill. The change from Carr to Jimmy G was a lateral move, at best.

    JMcD trades away the teams best assets, changes the entire make up of the team, and leaves it in total disarray.

    Can’t blame Carr or Adams for that.

      This is the second time McDaniels has gotten a coaching job, and immediately blew up the offense, getting rid of an established starter. Maybe hes just not real smart.

      I don’t understand this thinking.

      Almost all of us in Packers land saw this coming. Carr was already on the hot seat when they traded for Davante.

      Everyone joked that Davante wouldn’t be happy and look what happened.

        The plan was Davante + offensive genius coach should have gotten Carr off the hot seat. Great theory…

    Carolina. Don’t. Fuck. With. Your. Weapons.

    You saw what happened with the AJ trade, and decided to one-up it with trading away your first this year

    LMFAO why the FUCK would the Bengals ship Higgins to Carolina? Laughable they even inquired unless they were ready to offer a 1st round pick.

    I obviously get the contract situation, but he’s much more valuable to the Bengals for a possible Super Bowl run, than shipping him off and diminishing their chances & depth at the position.

    If you’re a really good team and you just ship off your best players whenever you think there’s a low chance of them re-signing, you’re just cutting off your nose to spite your face. Those draft picks you get in return aren’t going to help fill out your depth or in your playoff run for that year.

      If you told me three years ago Devante was going from the Packers to the Raiders that he’d retire as well but we were all surprised

    The Panthers are stupid and I hate them. Traded away CMC and Moore, then it’s OMG shocked Pikachu, Bryce has no one to throw the ball to. I’ve been a fan since 95 and this team is a dumpster fire. Conversely, I live in Vegas and Adams seems so much happier now that McDaniels and team are gone. Raiders balled out last week, so at least I do get some football positivity in my life

    I don’t find that the slightest but surprising. We knew that they were looking for a top WR, and those are two of the best that seemed like they could have been available.

    I’d be curious to know if they were able to make any sort of reasonable offer and what that might have looked like.

    DeAndre Hopkins was just sitting there waiting for a bag . They could have had him without having to trade

    They need to trade ownership. The only improvements to the organization is more peace of mind for female and minority employees. The team use to have a winning record every other season, like clockwork. Mediocrity never looked so good!
