tsylvester Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 ESPN: Arizona Cardinals star Kyler Murray agrees to 5 years, $230.5 million deal, is now among NFL's richest QBs, source . The deal, which runs through the 2028 season, includes $160 million in guaranteed money, the source told Schefter. The Cardinals officially announced Murray's five-year extension Thursday but did not disclose terms.

GrubberRaven Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Gross to say. Little man throws a tantrum and gets his way. Oh well, if AZ will pay it, might as well capitalize...Murray is nothing without talent around him...good luck affording that talent.

tsylvester Posted July 25, 2022 Author Share Posted July 25, 2022 Hey, the kid can play, if you want a real passing game to set up a run game, this is the price you pay. Gone, perhaps, are the days when an average qb, solid running game and top 3 defense are going to win a Super Bowl with any consistency. We shall see but this is the price you pay for dynamic quarterbacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papasmurfbell Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 You still dont win a SB with a QB going into the 13% of the cap. There is a reason why it is won in rookie deals and when a vet is traded and the new team doesnt have to account for the bonus money.

tsylvester Posted July 26, 2022 Author Share Posted July 26, 2022 Interesting, his deal includes a clause that requires him to do 4 hours of film study, outside of the practices or else the deal can be canceled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsylvester Posted July 26, 2022 Author Share Posted July 26, 2022 Eh, 4 hours a week, what's that 30 minutes per day? Seems pretty simple. Shoot back when I was writing about football I did far more than that per day/week. If any young qb, college or pro is not doing that, maybe they don't belong...

Weight claues, dangerous activity clauses all exist in players' contracts, this is just like them. Leave it to the media to make a mountain out of a mole hill..

GrubberRaven Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Murray, supposedly, has openly said he doesn't watch much film. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2022/07/25/kyler-murray-admitted-last-year-that-he-doesnt-spend-extensive-time-watching-film/ Reading media bias/sensationalism is exhausting. If I want to read that, I just look to Papa's posts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have Ray Lewis looking over his shoulder as a film teacher? It's pretty easy to track how long a person is logged onto a system, now, how could they determine exactly what else a person is doing at the same time? Maybe they realized that they couldn't find a way to properly track him with out cameras in his house..? Maybe they caved after the outrage by the media and fans, what will they clamor for next, make teams take out weight clauses, or dangerous activity clauses? Seems to me a team has a right to put stipulations in contracts especially if said team is going to pay out that much money. If the player really objects, don't sign.. Murray signed, likely knowing that there was no way to truly track him and, conspiracy nut time, maybe so he could leak it to the press and get the subsequent outrage on his side to get it removed....
