Oh, you know they are hating us. They are in a bad situation because Julio is not Jerry Rice or Fitzgerald. He is a fine tuned Maserati. Not built to play into his 30's like they are. They are going to have to start dialing him back where MT is still a young buck.

They are going to be tough this year. They have arguably the best receiving corps in the league. If they are going to make a run this is the year for them to do it. They can’t pay all of them and keep the defense. I hope they do break the bank on Julio. It will screw them long term.

Our whole division is loaded with pass catchers to hang with us. The NFC South is the Taj Mahal of pass catchers. Julio, Evans, MT, Kamara, Howard, Mcafferrey, Samuel blah blah, DJ Moore, Calvin Ridley...this division is stacked with pass catchers. All to compete with the Saints.

Everyone knows the NFC South is the division of playmakers.

But only one NFCS team has a GOAT. A little GOAT with big f..ing hands.

On other sites, the joke about the NFC South has usually been that it's the "all offense, no defense" division. That has kinda changed the last two years with us developing a defense.

And we're going to have a cap that is likely to be $25M higher than it is today, along with several contracts that can be restructured and roster bonuses that can be converted into signing bonuses, ect. The whole cap game has changed tremendously over the past ten years or so
