    100 highest paid athletes?

    Ok, probably not right for a steelers-only forum, but still..

    Have you guys seen this:

    Matthew Stafford, Matt Ryan, and Joe Flacco seriously?

    Mayweather at 37 years old too....jesus

    Stafford deserves that...he was drafted in a non cap year and made ridiculous money there but after missing a lot of games in his first 2 seasons he has been very durable for 48 straight games, has put up huge numbers with really only 1 target thats an NFL caliber player, after calvin its a bunch of misfits. I think Schwartz ran a circus there, but stafford just turned 26 hes still very young. When you take over and do decently well on a team that went 0-16, they will pay you

      Floyd really put his business hat on when it comes to pay per view.

      Not sure about Stafford... he is decent but still crumbles in crunch time when they really need a play. Stafford reminds me of Carson Palmer... good, but he won't take over games when the playoffs are on the line.

        Poor overall supporting cast and defense for stafford I think.

        He definitely has his bright moments, against dallas last year comes to mind. Absolutely put the team on his back
