Miami pissed off at Pittsburgh?
-
Miami wanted to see what they had in Tua. Well, they saw. They were surviving off their defense, but the Bills' offense is better. End of story.
I'm not all that impressed with Tua and his noodle arm...

Coming off the injury he had he looked better than I expected.
Jury is not in yet, but he looked the part of an NFL starter to me in the couple Fin games I saw.
As for noodle-arm... he's chucked the pigskin 55+ yards both at BAMA and for the Fins. It's just that he mostly throws with touch and anticipation... things a certain #6 needs to show more frequently.

They just used the number five overall draft pick last year on him. Do you want them to pick somebody else this year? You know that they have the number three pick which they traded for with Houston.

The guy has been with the team for four years, they didn't need any more tape on him, Hurts is the guy you want to develop, put him in a game-winning situation, don't bench him so you can "give snaps" to a loyal henchman. Besides, you are playing a division rival, you want to win all of those games, he did the fans and the league a disservice.

Hurts is their guy. They also have him at a very decent price. His playstyle at qb is conducive to injuries. So why not get some live bullets flying at the guy you think may be a backup to see how he performs. Then you are in a better position to know whether you need to go out and spend a little of that money you save going with hurts and dumping Wentz on a vet backup like a Case Keenum, nick Foles etc or if you have confidence in nate sudfeld to come in if needed so that money can go elsewhere.

Tanking if you want to call it that Z, but the Eagles weren't making the playoffs regardless. So I can see the logic of not trying too hard in the last game to improve your draft slot. Sorry the Giants are all butthurt about it. There's no guarantee Philly would have won even if Pederson had played Hurts the entire game anyway.

Do you think the Browns would have lost had BR played Sunday?
Nevertheless......It seems that the Football Gods are conspiring against the Browns now.

I really don't understand where NYG gets off presuming their thoughts matter regarding Philly's ingame choices. Philly has no OL and doesn't want to kill one of their QB's for next season.
If the Giants want to complain about something, it's their own offense that needs to score more points.. and their GM Gettleman needs to stop failing on draft day.

So, you're saying that the Steelers rested players against us because they wanted to lose to us so that they could play us in the playoffs instead of the Ravens or Colts.

That IS a theory that I came up with. It would take some clever and devious thinking to have come up with that. And with the new developments of today, if that were so, it could be considered genius.
