Aaron Rodgers just got mega paid. Joe Flacco, your reign as king of the elite money, has ended before it ever really began. Though from what I can tell, Mr Rodgers got a far better structure in his deal and the Packers won’t be nearly as shanked by it and the Ravens will by Flacco’s deal. The Ravens already had to cut half the team’s veterans and wont resemble the team we saw last year. The Packers? They just lost Greg Jennings.
Also I like to imagine Aaron gets a lot of company in his money castle because what the hell else is there to do in Green bay?
“…what the hell else is there to do in Green bay?”
Meth
Love the comic, but have to get this off my chest with the description, as it hit a pet peeve of mine. Flacco was grossly overpaid, but his cap hit is $7m this year, only $1m more than it was on his rookie contract.
Again, definitely overpaid, and you can blame him in two-three years when his cap hit takes a big climb, but he’s not to blame for the exodus of players from Baltimore this year. Again, this isn’t anything against the comic, it’s just a pet peeve of mine; I’m a big salary cap guy, and it bugs me when I see people blame Captain Gummybears for all the FAs that left.
Fair enough, my salary cap knowledge could use some grooming. Also I might steal Captain Gummybears from you
Overpaid until proven otherwise, eh? Don’t worry, just wait till next year. Flacco’s gonna show he’s worth every penny. 40 TD and MVP!
How did that work out for you?
The Ravens didn’t cut half the teams veterans because of the Flacco deal for this year you idiot
Sexy Rexy FTW…. And joe flacco gets paid WAYYYYYYYY too much.
Ok so question, ever since the Denver Fax Machine comic I’ve been noticing Sexy Rexy in every comic, and for some you really have to look for it but its always there and its always funny, but just to be sure was the fax machine the first Sexy Rexy? also I guess it didn’t appear in the Geno Smith/Rex Ryan comic but then again it had Sexy Rexy himself.
I have no idea what you could possibly be talking about. Why on earth would I have started sneaking Sexy Rexy grossman references in every comic? That’s just silly. I certainly didn’t put it in this comic, on the chair. That would be absurd.
So, are you ever going to do a comic about Revis going to the Buccaneers?
Actually, with that being said, are you ever going to do a comic about the Buccaneers at all? Seriously, I don’t think you’ve even referenced them in a single one of your comics.
I couldn’t get a good joke out of the Revis situation when it happened because I was busy with the draft. But now that we are in the offseason and less is happening I’m starting to get to my backlog of ideas I couldn’t get to earlier. I won’t leave the Bucs hanging for long. In the meantime, I made this for a website when it happened: http://i.imgur.com/HDaJqxM.png
Okay, cool. Looking forward to it.
Yeah Flacco killed their cap so much, that’s why they brought in Dumervil, Huff, Canty, Spears, and McClain. Not to improve the front seven from the worst Ravens D since 2002, but becuase Flacco makes too much.
Btw, his deal gets crazy in 2016, he only even gets to 15 mil in 2015 (which is the price of a QB in todays NFL [looking at Kolb and Fitzpatricks deals]) and will be redone before that ever kicks in anyway. It’s only 45 Mil guaranteed, he def will renegotiate a better deal before then.
