Edit:
Plus the new trend is that article comments are disabled on a large number of websites as well.

This feels more like a bar, whereas those other mediums feel like a curated comic con or something. 

There are some pretty smart folks here that offer some great analysis. There have been times where someone offered info that seems very insider. Like someone definitely in the know. 

What ever happened to the official forums? I used to read them as a guest and then one day they disappeared and google took me here. 

Either way, I always find it funny when people post like the players can read it.

Someone better in the know could get more specific...  but the teams are all in on social media as a replacement to official forums.  The Admins here were able to export the official forums to this location.  It was great that 1 they took the initiative and 2 the team assisted.  NFL Teams like controlling the message and the forums had people/posting stuff that the team couldn't endorse.  Everyone is risk averse in many many ways.
