2025-2026 NFL Season: Sean Wants a Title • Page 57

Your position of the lions “forcing” other teams to pay their players is absurd

 

Should've just waited until George Pickens got 35m to say anything

 

Tbf anything Jerry does is an outlier to professional sports

(Unless you’re suggesting someone else does)

 

How? Its literally what happens and teams have outright said this. They said it about the Kirk contract, which is why I brought it up!

 

Someone will. If Jerry tries to give Pickens 35 after refusing 42 for Micah though idk if he'd survive

 

I work in assisted living/memory care and would start to recommend Jerry to many nearby communities

 

if it’s what happens regardless then it’s not a lions issue which is what you were insinuating

 

Still waiting for the collapse of a franchise due to salary cap concerns

 

It’s more the insinuation that Lions made sure they were “first” so they could set the market and other teams are forced to use the contract as precedent but it’s not like the Lions did so maliciously, they just kinda did it so yeah, it’s something they themselves avoided being the victims of

 

What gets me is that NOW Kirk is an overpay

But yeah I do get what Matt’s getting at

 

The Saints are coming

 

I’m just never going to bat an eye at a contract anymore because it doesn’t matter lol. Cap will continue to go up. Teams will continue to manipulate it to their benefit.

 

No it wasnt lol

 

Cap is never an issue but one of the best defensive players in the league just got traded because of money and the NFL sacks leader got to hold an entire team hostage for an offseason because they were being cheap assholes.

 

You really think if the cap didn’t exist all contractual issues would cease to exist? Jerry Jones would behave normally? The Bengals wouldn’t Bungle? It’s just the cap driving this lunacy? Come on. Be serious. Get a grip.

 

I miss cigarettes

 

Same and I never even smoked lol

 

No??

 

What i said was clear and was explained by another person and made even clearer

 

mannnn we are sooo back

 

I really think everyone interpreted Matt’s post as criticizing the Lions when it really wasn’t and just made a general comparison which in some ways is accurate and in other ways is inaccurate

Then yeah he specified the accurate parts

 

In fairness, I wasn’t responding to the Lions bit. I simply wanna die a little bit on the inside whenever “teams have to X because of the cap” comes up lol

 

like 15-20 minutes, Oakdale was in my school district growing up and a ton of my friends grew up there. we’ll definitely be checking it out once the crowds die down. they were shuttling people into it yesterday.

 

I didnt say cap to be fair

 

Your essence did
