Lord BJ Posted August 9 18 minutes ago, Sexton Hardcastle said: The Brown helmet issue is pretty fascinating. Always the drama with him and his fantasy value just fell massively. I’m not sure fascinating the words I would use. A thread on Twitter ‘allegedly’ providing details of last few weeks. Amongst some of the stuff ie. tuning up late. He has has threatened to retire apparently. It looks like the AB drama has kicked off much quicker than I thought. Thought he would at least wait till the Raider had proved they weren’t play off contenders. The sources unfortunately seem pretty reliable. https://twitter.com/MikeSilver https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2849093-raiders-rumors-antonio-brown-files-helmet-grievance-against-nfl Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sexton Hardcastle Posted August 9 The parts about him agreeing to wear a new helmet and him sneaking his old one in, re painted badly and being busted. Fascinating in my eyes anyway. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord BJ Posted August 9 This might sound really stupid. how did he get a old style Raiders helmet? Thougn i I guess if your worth 500M or whatever you can get what you want. I just want DC throwing to AB no dramas just TD’s 😢 i think he will be there on 1st game of season but I guess where AB goes drama goes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Didn’t see the part about him sourcing an old raiders one. That would at least have been the right paint job. A lot of it doesn’t even matter just now as he can’t even practice it can be sure HBO will get good figures this week. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reading too many threads and believing some of stuff. Its hard not to question to his cimmitment, when ‘allegedly’ freaking out over a helmet. I get it’s not what you like but let’s be honest at 20M a year you think you would learn to adapt or at least give it more than a couple of sessions, Between this and the frost bite he needs to invest in a equipment manager!!! This is would be comedy gold if wasn’t the raiders 😡 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

luckyBatistuta Posted August 10 Maybe his feet are worse than we thought. He could be using this helmet excuse and retiring as a cover for the massive #### up he’s done with the cryo and he knows he is not going to be able to carry on, just a thought🤷🏼♂️ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cooper is due his contract soon as well and one of the reasons the raiders traded him as he thinks he’ll get top WR money. Cant pay those two, Zeke and other high end players.

Taking a chance giving Zeke his money, but if it was my money, I’d still be giving it to him before either of those two. He’s the engine that drives that team, Zak is average without him.

In his 3 seasons in the NFL: 2 pro-bowls 2 seasons inside top 10 for pass completion 2 seasons inside top 10 for int percentage 2 seasons top 10 QBR 3 seasons inside top 10 for game winning drives 2 seasons inside top 10 for comeback wins I reckon he's definitely under-rated.

Seemingly this whole helmet debacle might have been predicted by the steelers and the inevitable circus/distraction may well have played a part in their decision to trade. His helmet wasn't one of the banned models but as it's now 10 years old it can't be certified, something that the Raiders were unlikely to know before making the trade but the steelers could have been fully aware that 2018 was the last time he could wear that helmet!

I’ll bet his stats drop right off in games without Zeke. He’s not for me, but can’t blame the guy for trying to get as much as he can. The Cowboys are mad though, if they make him the highest paid QB imo. He’s not worth that money and if they did, how are they going to pay Elliott and Cooper. They have to tie up Elliott first, he is a true difference maker. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hmfc_liam06 Posted August 15 Fleaflicker. But the official NFL leagues are probably best in terms of joining a random league, I'd imagine they have the market share. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sexton Hardcastle Posted Sunday at 07:37 Gillan should hopefully make the Browns roster with massive punts again last night. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Everybody Loves Baz! Posted Sunday at 09:01 1 hour ago, Sexton Hardcastle said: Gillan should hopefully make the Browns roster with massive punts again last night. Kitchens spoke well of him last night too. A 74yrd punt had the commentators going "wow" during the game. It was pretty accurate too. I think it was him that had a shit snap though which contributed to Siebert missing his 53yrd attempt which would've possibly put him ahead against Joseph in the kicker position had he got it. Promising though for Gillan. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
