Earl Thomas: traded or cut

#1

Ravens are so set on parting ways with Thomas they set to eat 15 million dollars. And here I was thinking we were the only ones with that much dead money....

They cut him.

He posted video of their private team practices on his instagram... That's likely why they cut him with "conduct detrimental to the team" and why they're going to go after that $10m guaranteed he's owed. He'll file a grievance but it's doubtful he'll win. Him posting a video for the world to see, that is private film for only people inside that building is a big no-no.

Dude is losing his mind. Rumors are hes been an issue since he got there. Being late, or missing multiple meetings, getting in fights with multiple players (not just this recent one with the other starting safety Clark) etc etc. Got to wonder if CTE is hitting him.

Already reports of him being linked to the Cowboys. Dude just needs to hang it up.

That's been his goal all along. Sounds like he took a page out of Jalen's playbook.

But he could have just signed with Dallas last year instead of Baltimore if that was his goal all along.
Sounds like he's just a turd.

Which makes Dallas a perfect landing spot lol

I have a feeling Chiefs will trounce the Ravens in the AFC championship. I think the Pats will surprisingly win the East and make some noise with Cam at QB. The South will be a tough battle, but no teams will make much noise. Philip Rivers has a noodle arm these days. Titans will regress, just like the Jags did after 2017, and the Texans will implode as Watkins is exposed without Hopkins.

Man I hope so but... Watkins is Houdini in the pocket with or without Hopkins.
Most of the time he avoided pressure because his guys were covered and he bought the time for them to get open. He still has Fuller who is a deep threat when healthy. 
I do think they take a step back in terms of total wins and offensive production because you just don't replace a talent like Nuke easily. But implosion and exposed aren't the words I'd use necessarily.

Wonder if it will be like that year Seattle won their division at 7-9?
