* Correcting: Mitchell, not Stephen:
Mitchell Schwartz legitimately just had one of the greatest postseasons in NFL history.
100 pass blocking snaps exactly over 3 games.
Almost the entire time in obvious pass situations as the team trailed, against legit pass rushers.
Two, hurries. Nothing else.

13:34: Betts, Bryant And Baseball’s Bullshit.
* If you can’t “afford” to pay your (best) employees, get out of the business!
* Coffman: “It’s grim.”
* Rhodes: “It’s called a ‘luxury tax’ because they have luxurious bank accounts.”
* No Arenado.
For the last time and please listen closely. There is no credibility to any Arenado to the White Sox rumors. None what so ever. So don’t tweet about it or ask about it or speculate about it. Not happening. Hasn’t happened. Won’t happen
