Sounds like the owner wanted to get Brady relatively recently which isn't exactly a rebuild plan. Stephen Ross just sounds like a massive moron. So much so I wouldn't be surprised if he actually did put this in writing or say it to others who can confirm.

It was in 2019.

Ah, okay. Thanks. Actually in that case makes it stranger he wanted Brady in the same timeframe he just talked about tanking.

Flores goes on to state that he didn't think Miami was a good fit for Brady considering they were in the middle of rebuild mode. Didn't really say he had an issue with talking to him even though it could have been tampering, he didn't think it was good fit for Tom.

I noticed that the Broncos response did not address the allegations, though. They responded that there were several people in the interview and it started on time and they had notes. They did not state that elway and Ellis were there on time or that they were not disheveled and hungover.

Based on the Broncos' response, it is quite possible that the interview did start on time with the underlings who were prompt, and then Elway and Ellis staggered in late.

What kind of mental gymnastics does it take to think an owner offering a HC money to lose games is evidence that the NFL rigs games? It's actually the complete opposite.

Hell, you think if the games were rigged, then Flores would have said so.

.

:LOL:

Is that why he tied the ****ing game and dove for extra yardage on our possession to go to TO?

i feel like we should talk about where they would be if he had tanked..

At will. Amazing how the entire offense looked lost in the 2nd half, with Reid having Mahomes fire away into 8 deep shells....

I mean, the result pretty much shut everyone up about the OT rules, didn't it?

If we go down and score in OT, everyone bitches.

But Tyreek does his best Darrell Revis and bats the ****ing ball right to a goddamn Bengal...

You mean to tell me you guys think the Jets were trying? We're we trying back in 08 with Tyler Thigpen?

This should be the expected result if draft pick position is correlated with wins and losses. Perhaps the NFL should consider NOT giving the worst team the #1 draft pick.

All 1-32 teams put in a lottery of equal value without regard to wins or losses in prior season.

If an owner offers his or her coach money to throw games they could bet the other way against their team and win more money over and over again. Similar to fixing stock prices, etc. Unethical business behavior rules that should be enforced to ensure a fair game and people not gaming the system based on their socioeconomic standing or job role.

Remember when we had Brady Quinn at QB and Romeo Crennel as HC?

Holy shit...Romeo. RC Cola.
