2019 NFL offseason discussion.

Good start for the Raider`s season not to mention the season will start on prime time Monday Night Football! Antonio Brown froze his feet so badly in a cryotherapy chamber that his start to the season was in jeopardy, he then skips multiple practices, reportedly gone AWOL from the Raiders, created a huge distraction with grievances about his helmet and then decided to post a fine letter from the GM on social media. He then gets into an argument with his GM over the letter and his posting it on social media. I`m pretty sure Ben Roethlisberger is thinking to himself "Glad he`s Oakland`s problem and not ours anymore!".

Looks like Antonio Browns punishment is playing week one. Lol

A Marc Davis power move no doubt!!

I think AB has learned his lesson...

right?

/sarcasm

[redirish]

I thought he was done also but looks like great players get a lot of chances.

Check out Antonio Browns self serving YouTube video titled "THIS IS MY LIFE. AIN'T NO MORE GAMES". I`m not going to waste time linking to it, I already wasted 1:56 of my life watching it.

My head is spinning from this...however it looks like the Raiders have now released AB after fining him again and taking away all his guarantees. AB didn't want to be playing week to week. Or he just doesn't want to play anymore based on this entire preseason.

[Steve Dallas]

And, now I'm hearing that the Patriots have picked up AB.

Could this be the downfall of the Patriots and the Brady/Belichick era?

I doubt it will be the downfall for the Patriots, Bill Belichick does have experience managing a personality like Brown. There are way too many top players on the Patriots for Brown to start thinking he`s their best player and Belichick doesn`t tolerate fools and primadonnas well but it will be interesting to see how the Patriots deal with him. I`ll guarantee if he`s a disruption in the locker room he`ll be gone......AGAIN!!!

I wonder what the language is in the contract? I just wonder if brown didn’t see the raiders as a good team and brown and his agent started talks with the Pats and they wanted to break the contract? If he turns out to be this perfect teammate now that he is on the pats then something smells fishy LOL

That's already been reported that this agreement with the Pats was done beforehand, so AB knew he'd have a place to land.

Well, I never said he'd play badly for the team. Just that he could be their downfall. For example, what if it's proven that they colluded with him prior to him being released, per that link I posted...there could be repercussions

[PoorMansCamaro]

Wtf? Why would anyone accuse the Bears? They gave up two 1st round picks. The bears still probably made the better deal, but it wasn’t given away.

[PoorMansCamaro]

But let’s be real...the patriots cheating? Naaaahhhhhh. Never happens. LMAO
