    So I guess Michael Irvin, deion sanders, kurt Warner, shannon sharpe, cris carter, ladanian Tomlinson, booger macfarland, and all the other football adcinados and analysts that basically I have echoed what they said about leveon are stupid to right and you know so much more then they do right?

    Conner is no Le'veon. He's doing well enough though. The issue is not the offense. With Brown, Ju Jue, James Washington, Vance McDonald, Jesse James, etc and of course Ben Roethlisberger, the Steeler's offense will be fine without Bell.

    They would have been foolish to pay his demands. They can go with a running back by committee.

    It's obvious what they need is a top tier pass rusher, more speed at ILB, and need to get better with communication and play in the secondary. IMO.

    Le'veon does not warrant the 18 x pay of conner. He doesn't provide 18 X the production.

    Le'veon's been great, but his time is up here. Time to move on.

    Don't the Jets have two 3rd round picks? Just take that and be done with it...

    Your Football Outsiders link now has the Week 3 data incorporated. PIT and NYG both are both ranked in the bottom third of the league for run blocking. That’s not even “far superior”, let alone “FAR SUPERIOR”.

    With the exception of Kurt Warner and Chris Carter the rest of those guys are meatheads. Michael Irvin is a huge dip ****. Deion sanders good football player but a big dunce. Shannon Sharpe it’s just a blowhard who talks like he’s got a mouthful of marbles. Booger McFarland? Give me a break thank I need some plastic surgery before he says another word.

    I pondered elsewhere, but this thread seems more relevant...

    What does Bell get by signing and reporting by the November 13 deadline?
    1. Another season accrued toward veteran status? He’s already an unrestricted FA (4+ accrued seasons).
    2. Some impact on pension or post-career benefits? (Not that he seems to care about that.)
    3. Free-agent eligibility at the end of 2018? Is he not eligible if he isn’t on the roster this season?
    4. A big bump in tag salary? Definitely—sit out and he can tagged again for the same $14.4MM, otherwise it’s more like $21-$25MM. (Although it’s a different question whether any team would actually pick up the tag for that amount.)

    So can tell me what you've done in your life or accomplished athletically that your opinion on football is more credible or valid than people with gold jackets and busts in Canton.

    For someone who is so good at sports, and getting all this tail, you sure do spend a lot of time fighting with middle aged men on a message board.:hmm::lolol:

    I would imagine that tonight, Vance Mcdonald is watching TV on Chris Conte's couch with his feet up on Chris Conte's coffee table, relaxing after the meal Chris Conte's wife cooked for him. Chris Conte got owned! :lolol:

    He's just a different type of runner. Doesn't mean he can't be just as effective. Which is what I have been trying to show by comparing stats. Does 3 games mean JC is Bells equivalent? No, its just meant to show that he is giving us Bell like production so far. We'll check back on this conversation at the end of the year. If JC is like you say, he won't keep this up.

    I cannot. Its a paid site, need a membership. It has Steelers rated at 55.0 for run blocking and 76.0 for pass blocking and Giants at 58.7 run blocking and 65.3 pass blocking. I knew the Steelers were a superior pass blocking team and as you can see, pretty equal in the run game.

    Your link by the way, bears out the same pretty much. Except in overall rank, they have the Steelers a little ahead at 25th to Giants 31st. But individual situations like short yardage the Giants line grades out better, getting stuffed the Giants grade out better, running back yards the Giants grade better, open field yards, Giants better.

    Its only because of some adjusted line formula they use that Steelers somehow finish 25th to Giants 31st but even that by itself, doesn't do much to support your argument how much more awful the Giants line is than the Steelers.

    I could give you my resume, but that really doesn’t matter.
    I’m ok with those guy’s football opinion, but not their ethical views or business views. Just because a guy can play ball doesn’t make him an expert on everything.
    Look guy I know you have some kind of thirst for debate, but you’re so one sided on the Bell issue that it makes your posts ridiculous. I’m going to give you advice which you probably won’t take. Just cause you think it doesn’t make it right and be open minded on issues and look at both sides.

    They played in the nfl. They know how teams do players. You were never in their shoes so you dont know. They've seen it first hand. You're only concern is what's best for the team you root for. That's one sided. They are looking at a far larger picture.. and we are talking about a situation dealing with football. You act like I'm holding the weight of what they say about the presidential election or something. This is a subject about the nfl and football..
