NFL 2022-2023

There is no way the Steelers front office wants to deal with another QB with sexual misconduct baggage.

The Steelers were going to trade Big Ben in his prime because of misconduct so I agree, Deshaun is not a Steeler's kinda guy.

I think the 49ers... wanting to make some of their guilt about Kap go away, might be in the second chance business for Watson.
 
There are lots of signals that the Seahawks are after Jackson.

I heard a discussion between a couple of lawyers this AM on Denver radio. One of them had read at least one of the complaints, and said there was not even close to enough to indict. He said that some of the complaint made no sense, and the overall credibility was weak. If that's true of the others, no wonder the grand jury didn't indict.

Now that the criminal suits are discarded, what's left on the civil side is just money...nothing that will take him off the field. Jackson will have plenty of money to pay for whatever comes down. He's ready to play.

You mean Watson, right?
 
Tom Brady Unretires a Month After Retiring

In a stunning Sunday night announcement – but not a completely unexpected one – Tom Brady announced that he is coming out of retirement to play for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2022.

Brady took to Twitter on Sunday and announced that after taking time to consider it, he still wants to play. He believes he has "unfinished business" and is looking forward to playing a 23rd season.

"These past two months I've realized my place is still on the field and not in the stands. That time will come. But it's not now. I love my teammates, and I love my supportive family. They make it all possible. I'm coming back for my 23rd season in Tampa. Unfinished business LFG," Brady wrote.

Interestingly enough, most people reacting right now don't seem surprised. The writing has been on the wall all day and for the better part of a month.
