This whole thing is, to me, evidence he does not prepare. I realize his contract was probably 50 pages or more and full of language the average guy doesn't understand. But for that money you better believe I am going over it with someone who does understand what it means. Dude is crazy gifted as an athlete, but his immaturity is also off the charts. Once he can't win solely on athleticism he will either have to try and learn all the nuances that he currently ignores, or he will be out of the league. Guess it doesn't matter though with that much money.

Cards are a joke. It can still work out but jeeze. Kyler has a long way to go to win the fans back. IDK a single AZ fan over 13 who is cool with him rn

It feels like they are close if he can lead effectively. LAR are certainly a hurdle, but Seattle and SF seem more of a mess now.

I feel like this year is going to be really, really ugly. Hopkins is so important to the offense and he is suspended the first 6 or 8 games and then the back end of their schedule is brutal. Even if they have the quality of an 11-6 team, they could end up 6-11.

IDK what's right, but it's a 23 game suspension since he already missed 17

You're right. The NFL should issue an immediate apology and reimburse his salary for last season, maybe even double it because of the trauma he has had to endure.

Being a toxic individual and no team willing to sign him directly and solely because of his actions is not a suspension. He wasn't even on the commissioner's exempt list.

WTF are you talking about?

He was on a team. He didn't play. He wasn't a free agent last year or even this offseason. He got traded and signed an extension. You can call it whatever you want, but he has 17 games as time served already and you won't see any soap box people on TV mention this. I would have given him a year suspension this year, but I also admit that IDK what is just and I'm not going to bury the fact that he missed 17 games already.

If we're being fair to the NFL, we have to point out this was the ruling of an independent party, a former federal judge. This is not the NFL's decision. Goodell caught **** no matter what he did. It was always either too harsh or too soft. He learned from that, and they are now using arbitration for deciding these complicated cases and agreeing to abide by whatever the ruling is.

I heard on the radio last night that settlement talks had broken down between the NFL and Deshaun Watson's attorney trying to negotiate a suspension. I had NO idea that it was even possible under the new collective bargaining agreement to try to negotiate punishment for player wrongdoing. Nevertheless, the story was that Watson was seeking a 6 to 8 game suspension. As I recall, the NFL was pushing for a 12-game suspension and a very heavy fine. I was blown away to then hear this morning that he received nothing more than a 6-game suspension. What a joke!

Yeah. I commented on this story last week (on the previous page of this thread). The AZ Cardinals management team and head coach are completely incompetent.
