    Well I guess I'm up chit creek then, not that I really care. Hard to prove something that has no proof unless you are one of those involved. I could say that I have working for me a triple agent that has infiltrated the inner rectum areas of the organization and this is the crap he told me.

    Another question is, how many pouted themselves into sizing their fingers for a SB ring? Some needed to go and maybe we waited too long to help them. I don't know, but if a player doesn't want to be a team member on our team, then he can GTFO of here before the cancer spreads. It also helps if we can gain something from it.

    Having a players union and a more than willing media, teams don't usually see this as a hill to die on regarding these egotistical employees.

    I liked what he had to offer but he knew his role on the team when he signed the contract and then pouted his way off the roster. We don't need player like that. A 6th round pick isn't much in return but we got rid of someone who didn't like being here. I hope he becomes a total dud for the Chiefs. Good riddance.

    I got really excited with the flashes he showed early on in spot duty like dropping the running back in the backfield or bull rushing the tackle almost into the QB but in the 2nd game when Watt left with the groin pull you could start to see him get gassed and chasing plays instead of making them. I want to say in the Bengals game there was a point where he appeared to just give up chasing Burrow. He still would have been a great breather guy if he could have swallowed his ego.

    That is a very good question. The simple answer is that the Steelers have demonstrated repeatedly that they will cave in such situations. This was actually part of my argument against selling low on Brown, because it helped to perpetuate the idea that the Steelers will always back down if a player really wants out. I really would have liked to see them tell Ingram to shut up and play. Dealing him is bad enough. Trading him to a team they will play in December when the two squads could be fighting for a playoff berth was idiotic. The sixth-round pick is nice, but it's not that valuable. Better to keep Ingram away from the Chiefs and threaten to make him inactive if he doesn't like it. That should work just fine for a guy who needs to earn his next contract.

    I guarantee you that I can find them screwing up, too. Your position on this makes no sense unless you have some specific issue with her.

    Chiefs also gave an O-lineman for a TE within AFC.

    This sums it up perfectly. Started off looking like a great pick up, ended up being a no show. Disappointing, but we move on.

    Was he playing or still on Covid leave because he was volunteering his medical skills on the front line?

    Hanratty posted in another Ingram thread that he had heard that Taco had passed Ingram on the depth chart knocking him to #4 and that is what was driving Ingram's dissatisfaction. I can believe some of that because of where Taco had lined up on Sunday. Tomlin likes swiss army knife type guys

    I wish they would have shipped Ebron instead but probably few takers if any.

    Ebron is a good locker room guy, sometimes you just need those types. May come a time down the stretch where someone can't go in week 17 and it will be an good insurance policy. Heck look how long some of the ST aces have stuck around with very little to show for it. Dangerfield had a good run of just making his teams play look good.

    But the point is they're still on the teams. For the Steelers it seems pouting is more rewarded.

    Actually when Ingram signed he said his role wasn't discussed, he wasn't promised anything, this is him being a ungrateful piece of crap.
