Obviously, Chargers need to win out, but need a loss by NE to Buffalo, and a couple of losses by the Chiefs (Steelers, @Bengals, @ Denver)
    That’s just crazy talk…or is it? All those losses are as believable as us losing James and tanking to the Chiefs. Crazy season.

      Not to mention all the COVID crazy.

        10-7 does not guarantee a playoff spot, unfortunately.

          At least we know the Lions could never beat the Cards. Oh, wait, maybe it is possible!

            I do find Hunter 9TDs and 70 catch percentage to be quite a bit better production than Cooks 4TDs and 57.7 catch percentage. But thats just me.

            You can be happy with unknown comp picks and cap savings. I think Henry would have made the team better this year and help win more games than Cook. Again, thats just me. And I could easily be very wrong about this.

            :shrug:
            I think this year is arguable for you if you just look at the salary comparison. I agree that Henry is a little better than Cook this year, so you could easily argue that we had an extra $2.323M in cap space this year and we could have had a better player in Henry.

            However, the problem is that Henry has a 3 year $37.5M contract with $25M guaranteed. His dead cap next year is $19M and his cap hit next year is $15M.

            All of that is to say that the Patsies do not get Henry for $6.823M this year without biting off on the large commitment for at least next year. There is no way that Henry is worth a $15M cap hit next year.

            And the comp picks that we are going to gain by not re-signing several of our players should help us get some potentially useful special teams guys at a minimum, so they do have some value even if Over the Cap is projecting only a 5th and three 7th round picks for us. I like the idea of having the extra picks.

                So far the Saint's defense is playing great.

                  You trust TT to turn those comps into answers?!
                  Who has it better than us?

                    Taysom Hill can't hit the broad side of a barn. How much did they pay that guy?

                        NA would have been #1
