@ryan-carruthers tbh will be shocked if we don't sign another qb, may as well go for Tebow if we don't care at least he would be more exciting to watch!

Ryan

@martin-futter Exactly, thing here is you never know with Fitz you could get the talented player he is or you could get the s**t show....

Martin

@ryan-carruthers seems we are waiting for next season to draft a qb seems strange to write a whole season off on the hope we get a low draft pick

Ryan

@martin-futter probs even more so after the news of signing Fitzpatrick....

Martin

@ryan-carruthers got to do it, just go big get some excitement going in the city it has been a long time since Marino glory days now! at the moment it is less about winning a Superbowl and more about exciting a fanbase who like myself are very disillusioned!

Ryan

Wow, what is going to happen now!! Everybody will know that as well so when they come a calling they’ll be asking for a hell of a lot.

Not much in the QB room in Miami now, got to move up and nab a top rookie QB.

Martin

@ryan-carruthers bennett? they have lost a lot of top players though (as always) not that it makes a diff to them!

browns, jets and raiders making a tonne of moves could have good years if they come off

Ryan

The pats have gone and got themselves a baller!!

Ryan

@bob I actually love it!! I think its bloody brilliant, you get to see the coaches at their best and makes it really entertaining and to get a top top player you have to give up a fair bit....

I'd love to see it in the top leagues with the talent playing in the lower leagues lol then drafting from there.

Martin

@bob yep it's what makes the game great a level playing field!

Bob

I find the draft system and the trading system fascinating in the NFL when comparing it to the European football (I refuse to use the word beginning in ‘S’). Some of the biggest players going to some of the more average teams that you wouldn’t expect to be competing deep into the end of next season. Imagine the top players in europe signing for a mid table team in the prem. I realise it’s a very different system but still find it hard to get my head around! Haha

Ryan

@martin-futter its mental!!

Martin

@ryan-carruthers Bell to Jets and Brown to Raiders!

Ryan

Some huge pick ups already OBJ to the browns, Earl Thomas to Ravens....

Martin

Had a couple of small early bets on the 2020 Superbowl.
Patriots at 8.8, think their squad will be improved and their run game is really making them tough to beat. Hard to ignore their success and at this price have to be worth a small bit. Chiefs at 8.6 looks a nice price but want to see them improve that D in a big way before backing.
Bears at 22.0, love this price for a team that made a massive step up last season, that D was scary and the offence should improve as Trubisky continues to grow. Could have a slump after such an up year but 22 is big odds considering how good they were.

@martin-futter said in NFL Strategies:

I fear another Patriots Superbowl looming! AFC looks very weak to me again this season, Chiefs could beat Patriots at Home but their D is a real problem and Hunt out is huge. Chargers look very strong but again would probably need home-field to feel confident taking on the Pats. NFC looks stronger but Saints were poor this week, Rams still looking good though.

My fears came true! They were 8.0 at this point!

Martin

@bob I think the combine but I may be wrong will check

Bob

@martin-futter Any idea when he has to make the decision by?

Martin

@bob yeah he will get a lot more notoriety playing NFL but potentially less money long term (unless he really makes it as an elite QB)
