that more women haven't come out with tales of the pervboys. how about them pervboys! more hush money and more illegitimate children. lol

jerry Richardson got kicked out of the NFL for "keep pounding" slogan and life.
Both named Jerry !
JR didnt get kicked out, he just bailed when faced with the PC media.
I read about it , didnt find anything on "keep pounding" slogan.
What he did was not PC,and not that bad, but it was stupid, why mess with ordinary women at work when your a billionaire, and can hire 100's of girls who want your attention?

Same for Kraft, going to some parlor for his thrill, I think these guys are all cheapo's, and that gets them in trouble.
Same for watson he was a millionaire wanting thrills for price of massage ! lol cheapo!

Tom Brady playing 2 games per year against Sam Darnold, Marcus Mariota, and Jameis Winston! Like when he was in the AFC East all those years.
yeah , but it wont help him in playoffs.
Teams in weak divisions , get to playoffs, and then get beat by team used to playing tougher teams.

Watson’s contract and trade to Cleveland.
Adams to the Raiders.
Von Miller’s contract. And people ruing not giving him that.
Brady’s initial retirement.
Matty Ice to Indy.

Actually…. I guess the ruing isn’t surprising.

The deal for Watson and how Cleveland tore up his old deal and gave him a new one that ensures his upcoming suspension will cost him hardly anything in fine since his next year salary will barely be over 1 million. His agent was brilliant.

I am very surprised Gregory left Dallas. I am also surprised Adams left Green Bay.

I am shocked the Browns gave up 3 first round picks and then some to get Watson then gave him a $230 million contract for 5 years! That's $46 million a year supposedly fully guaranteed to a player who has not played in a year, still could be suspended by the NFL and is one woman's story away from being banned from football. Talk about taking risks. I wonder if he has a guarantee voiding clause in his contract...

Agreed. Too much guaranteed money for a ‘where there’s smoke, there’s fire’ guy. Big big risk.

Biggest Dallas shock for me are the DEs. That we lost Gregory and that we were able to figure out Tank’s contract.

Biggest NFL shock? All the QB movement. Russell Wilson traded, Brady back, Matt Ryan traded, Browns giving up on Mayfield, Rodgers staying in GB when it looked like he was a goner, and so on….. including the entire guaranteed contract of Watson I mentioned above!

So many interesting stories have happened since the season ended, what is the biggest surprise to you?

It can be from the Cowboys or any NFL team, player, etc..

Three of them . 1) Davante Adams to the Raiders. 2) Watson to Browns, 3) Cowboys having top 5 cap space in the NFL

the keep pounding slogan was some team saying. I was messing around, but it fit the narrative. lol

Cowboys trading Cooper and signing an often injured Gallup, when everyone said it would Gallup leaving.

A team giving up THAT MUCH for Watson. Zeke was suspended for almost nothing, or maybe actually nothing—an allegation. Watson has an avalanche of allegations being made against him and NOT A PEEP from the commissioner’s office.

For those of you who do not believe that there is no anti-Cowboy bias in the NFL—if you still believe that after this Watson situation—you must live in the land of rainbows and unicorns.

Biggest surprise are how many people are still defending Dak and how much the Browns are paying Watson.

It has to be Adams to the Raiders for me. Given how weak the NFC looks I was shocked Adams showed he's basically only playing football for money (many would) with zero ambition of winning a Superbowl which is a bit sad. Perhaps I'm a bit old school in thinking professional sports people should be playing to win not just for the money as the latter will take care of itself in any event.
