    You are still wrong about the moving goalposts thing. Doubling down on being wrong doesn't make you right.

    The only thing I changed was my claim that they should have kept Brown. I made a point of saying I had changed my mind once accusations of sexual misconduct came out. I did point out that it was information that NOBODY had at the time y'all were going on about it being a good thing they lost Brown, so it is all hindsight. If those accusations don't come out, he would be helping the Patriots with a playoff run right now. And yes, I do believe they would still be playing if they had another playmaker at receiver, an issue that hounded them all season.

    That said, the accusations did happen and that tanked his season and possibly ended his career. With that information that nobody had when he was traded, it is clear through hindsight that the trade wasn't a bad idea.

    You and many others refuse to admit the loss of Brown hurt this team. It did. I'm not saying it was avoidable, but there is no question that losing an elite receiver was a problem. If you want to stick your head in the sand and refuse to see it, that is your issue, not mine.

    Actually, I wrote that you don't want to hear any criticism of Smith-Schuster. Is calling another poster clownish really the way we are supposed to address one another here?

    Fine. You criticized him. You still didn't acknowledge the decline in his play this season. It wasn't just the quarterbacks and his own injuries. It was also the loss of Brown and Smith-Schuster's inability to handle being the No. 1.

    I called what you said clownish because it was. You are just embarrassed that I pointed out a mistake of yours.

    Your whining is really unbecoming.

    I'm done here. Im sure you will come back with some silly inaccurate quip because I'm fairly sure you have never walked away from a conversation. Getting the last word is kind of your thing.

    I'm not embarrassed at all, but I'm also not the one who resorted to a rude response. You can't let negative posts about Smith-Schuster's play this season go without making excuses for him. That was my point and I'm absolutely correct.

    The bit about getting the last word is just a dishonest message-board game. You know there is a flaw in the point you made, so you hope some fifth-grade reverse psychology will keep the other person from pointing it out.

    You insisted Smith-Schuster would be fine as a No. 1. You were wrong. Many posters on this board insisted losing Brown wouldn't hurt the team. Everyone who posted that was clearly wrong.

    Your main basis of why he wasnt good was because of several other factors and not his ability as a palyer to produce.

    Losing brown didnt hurt the the steelers but losing brown's production hurt them? WHAT? His productivity IS HIM.

    I believe the logic there is that getting rid of his off-field bull**** is more valuable than his production. I don't buy that logic for a second, but that seems to be the thinking.

    Part of it. Get his attitude out of the locker-room makes more sense.
    AB doesn't buy anything either, he stiffs the bill. Many, many, many lawsuits some possibly criminal.

    All time? No it was already too late for that but he did have a better 6 year stretch than any receiver in nfl history.

    You're walking back into convo that is already 8 pages long that you and I already took part in and want to rekindle it.

    Do you think there is anything new to say? :facepalm:

    JuJu has some drop issues and trouble securing the ball in big spots. Those are my criticisms of him, may not be enough for you but too freaking bad.
