The salary cap in 2016 is going to be 160 Million. Cry much about a non-factor? Wait till you see the next round of quarterback contracts under those inflated salary caps. All you cunts are going to shut the fuck up real fast.

Because his contract is specifically designed with managing the salary cap in mind...Its designed so you can eat a large cap figure right now or convert any given amount into a signing bonus so its over the life of the contract instead. I guess asking you to think is too much.

Josh was in seven other systems and failed. Found one he could perform in and decided to go back to an unknown one, I suppose will fail him again. Money out ranks success. Especially in sports.

Should we start trolling TB message boards about the hilarity of McCown signing for $5mil/year? Sure, the guy is a god, but they could have signed Sanchez and gotten a more consistent performer. Wait, has Sanchez been released yet? I haven't been watching the FA wire today.

UMM..... if we have no salary cap space now.... we can't even sign any big contracts with free agents. We aren't signing someone for 30 Mil 3 years with them getting 1 Mil the 1st year.

The way to fixing this team, or really just the defense, doesn't involve doling out a slew of large contracts to begin with and even if Emery did want to make a big free agent signing he could by having Cliff Fucking Stein play with the numbers on any of the contracts handed out this off-season. Furthermore you don't have any idea how the salary cap works if you believe money paid = salary cap hit.

I think it's a good signing for the Bucs. McCown will allow Glennon more time to learn and if he shits the bed they still have a rookie who had a 2 vs 1 INT ratio to turn back to. Lovie just wants a QB who will make the easy plays, not turn the ball over, and take advantage of the turnovers his defense causes. He now has two game manager types that he can rely on.

But the way to fixing the team involves giving Cutler $22.5 Million next year? A 31-year-old QB with literally no accomplishments. I mean from 2009-2012 even when the defense was above-average to great, he still did nothing.

Absolutely not! The way to fix a team involves signing a QB to a 5mil/year contract that had a negative TD/Int ration until last season. Don't you know anything?

Okay so what you're saying is you would rather fuck with the offensive unit to build the defensive unit when the offense just crawled out of the fucking stone age? Cutler got paid market value and some might even argue less than market value because he has no guarantees past three years. One thing is an absolute certainty, during those three years that are guranteed you're going to see what the market values for QB contracts will inflate to. Then, assuming you're not just trolling, you will see his contract won't just be fair market value...it will actually be cheap.
For fucks sake man. The salary cap, dead money all that shit...is a fluid situation that changes on a yearly basis. Money comes in and money goes out.

The thing is Cutler has never had a good season and nobody at any point has consider Josh to have elite skills like Cutler. Yeah better but Cutlers only decent year has been with Denver and he still threw a ton of ints and get this, was only sacked 11 times.
I'm more excited to see how good he should play next year. If this following year doesn't do it then let's reconsider what are thoughts are if he does well even the naysayers will be fine being wrong.
I'm still waiting for someone to post when was the last time Cutler threw 13:1 in a five game span. This year Josh just looked better. He may had got lucky on some dropped ints but so did Cutler.

Cheap? Less than market value? LOL. Yes, there were teams just lining up to give him $140+ Million over 7 years with a 25+ Mil cap hit the 1st year.

Not cheap now, cheap in 2-3 years...based on ever-inflating QB contracts. Oh never mind. You're just trolling anyways.

2-3 years of what? Finishing 2nd place in the NFC North and doing nothing in the playoffs (if we even make it)? Sounds like a solid investment to me.
