That is For The Win’s day by day e-newsletter, The Morning Win. Did a good friend suggest or ahead this to you?. Have suggestions? ! Now, right here’s Mike Sykes.
Good morning, Winners! Any individual goes to pay Matthew Stafford 100 million {dollars} to play quarterback within the yr 2025 and, nicely, I really feel very, very sorry for that crew.
The Athletic’s Diana Russini experiences that Stafford is about to have conversations about his future with the because the NFL Mix presses on. That dialog will decide what the quarterback’s instant future will likely be.
So far as the place that future could possibly be, Russini says the and are two groups which have mentioned a possible two-year cope with $90 million to $100 million assured hooked up to it.
Guys. That is $100 million in assured wage. To Matthew Stafford. Who’s 37 years previous.
The maths shouldn’t be matching right here. I am sorry. One thing doesn’t compute. Don’t move Go. Don’t acquire $200. What on the planet is happening right here?
I had two instant ideas after seeing this information. The primary is that this: I can not imagine these groups are this down on the present quarterback class. It appears form of ridiculous, would not it? It is not an unusual sentiment, it appears. Mel Kiper’s newest mock draft has . There’s additionally an opportunity neither of the highest 2 QBs make it to New York or Oakland — our Christian D’Andrea has each .
Even nonetheless, to be determined sufficient to pay Matthew Stafford all that cash simply to be a holdover? Desperation shouldn’t be a great look, you guys.
And there goes my second thought. The desperation. Come on, y’all. The Giants I can see being this determined. The coach and GM are each on the recent seat. They only let The’re looking for wins within the worst approach.
However the Raiders? No approach. They only employed a brand new head coach in Pete Carroll. There ought to be a level of endurance there. Even if you wish to discover a bridge quarterback for the longer term if you find yourself drafting somebody, it actually would not should be $100 million for Matthew Stafford, who must go be a household man at 37 years previous.
Do not get me fallacious. Stafford nonetheless has some juice. The no-look throws are nonetheless fairly. However we’re nicely past the years the place you simply throw him in there and issues work out. It is not 2022 anymore, guys. It has been three full seasons because the gained the Tremendous Bowl.
Let’s perhaps act prefer it.
Notre Dame, r u OK?
Coming into Sunday’s recreation towards NC State, it’d been almost 4 months since then No. 1 ranked Notre Dame had misplaced a recreation.
Now, Notre Dame has misplaced two straight. Once more.
Florida State pulled off a shocking 86-81 upset over the Preventing Irish on Thursday night time. When it rains, it pours for this crew.
Effectively, actually, that could be a bit dramatic. It is extra like when it drizzles, it drizzles fairly arduous. It is best to most likely seize an umbrella. Two straight losses are nothing to scoff at, however then once more, it is solely two losses.
Niele Ivey is not panicking, .
The final time Notre Dame misplaced two straight video games was in November. They proceeded to win the subsequent 19 video games. Whereas this actually is not what you wish to see going into March, it is not the top of the world.
Getting old like fantastic win
Stephen Curry’s star has been fading a bit this season. He is not fairly the identical participant he was once. However he is nonetheless obtained sufficient juice to be higher than your favourite participant on any given night time.
The person dropped 56 factors towards the Magic to tug the to a 116-111 win on Thursday. With one more 50+ level recreation below his belt, the person now has 9 whole in his profession after turning 30 years previous. That is essentially the most in NBA historical past.
50+ level video games after turning 30:
Steph Curry – 9Wilt Chamberlain – 7Damian Lillard – 6Michael Jordan – 6James Harden – 5
Nobody cooks just like the Chef 👨🍳
The Warriors could be previous. However I would not wish to see these dudes within the playoffs.
