Pretty good haul for SEA. Depending on how much you value Goff, it's more than what DET got for Stafford. Knee-jerk reaction is I somehow thought it was going to be even more expensive than that.

Apparently Rodgers' money isn't official yet, but assume it's true... they're saying his cap hit will reduce from the $46m or whatever it is. I guess I don't understand the cap more than I thought.

Not if you have to sign them to a long term contract.

Welcome to the reality of life in the NFL. Great Quarterbacks don’t grow on trees. It took the Colts the better part of two decades to find a successor to Bert Jones. The Dolphins have had zilch since Marino. The Broncos have been reduced to taking stabs at great players in the twilight of their careers.

Wilson is 33, he's got 5+ years left by modern standards.

Can they still get out of the AFC West? We’ll see.

Sorry; I forgot that half the nfl goes to the playoffs now.

Year 3 - 2021 - Trade for wonderkid potential in Carson Wentz. Thought it would be effective but was shown that it was not.

Year 4 - 2022 - ???

For as much as I want to rail at Andrew Luck for retiring, I cannot. These guys are modern day gladiators out here selling their health for our entertainment. I could argue that the HOW he did it sucked but the why? Yeah, not me to judge.

JB had every chance to show that he deserved the starting job and flubbed his season long audition.

PR was an aging wonder who did well but at the end, was on his last tank of gas. Solid move by Ballard that gave us a great chance to win but not a deep playoff run.

CW? Yeah, miss. He has it all except the most important 6 inches between his ears. I saw multiple young QBs in the playoffs WILL their teams to scores in the waning seconds of their games. They said "put the team on my shoulders" and they delivered time and again. I saw that and knew that CW is not that guy.

In the end, do I blame Ballard and Reich for the loss of resources we traded away for an ineffective player? Yeah, but I don't blame them much. It was a good gamble to take and it just did not pay off.

But I don't blame Ballard for trying. He has been trying to fix QB ever since Luck retired and has tried to do it pretty well. He just rolled snake eyes on Wentz.
It’s really been two years. Just feels like forever. Rivers was a stopgap who decided to hang it up. Wentz was a gamble the coach pushed for.

Stuff I more blame Ballard for is not drafting a LT after Castonzo was even hinting at retirement. Or keeping so much cap room with obvious holes that need filling.

Still hoping for Jimmy G

An interesting side note Desmond Ridders high school coach was Will Wolford
