The JETS have money to spend. Not saying DCarr will end up there but they will set the bar HIGH on offers from other teams.

It’s an enticing landing spot for him. It’s a big market, lots of weapons on offense, and a great defense. If we don’t land Carr or Jimmy G, we need to be smart and not make stupid decisions to faux compete.

How long did it take Buffalo to land Allen? We may be the new Buffalo Bills before the Bills of today.

Yeah all we need to do to liquidate $95 million cap is to double down on every bad or risky contract on our roster and make all those players untouchable for years with giant future cap hits that will force us to offer them extensions again next year even if their play merits cuts. Have you need the film Speed? Mickey Loomis’ cap management philosophy is that bus. If we go below 55 million over the next league years cap by opening day of the current year we explode. So the accelerator is locked to the floor, the steering wheel is locked straight ahead, and we just keep going until we hit a brick wall.

Dalton had Carr’s career average qb rating this year. Carr had a lower qb rating. He may not even prove an upgrade. But even if he did, we are going to lose players this offseason and others are getting older. We dont have a top coach. We arent contenders for a ring. Car wont get us one. To get Carr we will have to restructure Taysom Hill and backload Carrs contract in ways that Carr + Hill will probably have a bigger combined cap number than Maholmes in 2025. That is not a glorius path to a dynasty. That is how we become the Washington Generals of the NFC South.

22 years. Kelly's last year was 1996. Allen's first was 2018.
