Dude didn’t really play himself. What happens if he tore his acl last season. Dude simply didn’t want to play for a team that didn’t value him enough to give him more than $14 million gursnteed. Imagine taking a year off from work and returning the next year to get paid again.

You're not wrong. But in his mind he held out for more-than-Gurley $ and ending up getting "only" $35M guaranteed from what I'm reading. Therefore, you can argue he played himself.

He didn't quite get the same guaranteed money as gurley, but I think I read that Bells contract is 52M base, 61M with incentives so it very well could end up being more than gurleys contract in total.

I don't think any of us actually know what the hell the steelers really offered, but it sounded like it was $10M guaranteed and $70M total. He was never seeing that $70M with the workload they were giving him. There is some advanced stat out there that of all the running backs would touched the ball more than 400 times in a season, only 1 played more than 8 games the next year. Dude was going to die in Pittsburgh if they kept giving him the ball like that.

Saquon is a beast but drafting im at #2 overall is starting to look senseless now

If the Giants were smart they'd unload him for picks like Jimmie Johnson did with Hershel Walker.

it does when you remember why zeke was drafted #3 by the cowboys

also when you remember why the last 2 HCs have been fired by the organization
