Obviously, that's something we have to consider when you're talking about long-term ramifications of a contract extension and different things like that or letting somebody like Jalen Nailor leave.

I don't see BFlo coming back with all of the vacancies. I can definitely see him going to the Steelers, since he knows the program over there. And I don't see the Steelers veering from their typical hard nosed defensive coaches to a young innovative offensive mind. Remember Tomlin left on his own accord and the Rooney's didn't necessarily want to fire him. Enter BFlo a similar personality to Tomlin, yet superior with Xs and Os. Like a cross between Tomlin and Dick Lebeau.

That's the way it should have been all along.

Best case scenario is the charges get dropped and we can still get a 4th or 5th rounder for him.

Charges might get dropped but the NFL is still likely to suspend him regardless. Teams, rightly so, will factor that in.

The two 3rds will comfort the blow of losing him.

What the FO can't have happen is someone outbids us and he remains a DC.

It sounds like it's going to be a misdemeanor trespass... will be interesting to see what the NFL makes of that.
I could see anywhere from nothing to 6 games (because he already had a 3 game suspension THIS YEAR!)

I'm a broken record... but this is why I push back about Jefferson being a diva.

No AJ Brown like bs.
No Pickens like bs.
No Diggs like bs.
No ADDISON like bs.

Just shows up, doesn't complain, is available and plays.
Of course... he is well compensated to do so... but still...

Tomlin out is Pittsburg... wouldn't it be wild if KOC gets fired after 2026 and Wilfs hire Tomlin as HC for the 2027 season.

I could kinda see it... trying to recapture the one you lost.

Vikings star Jordan Addison refused to leave a casino bar before his arrest this week despite being asked multiple times, according to police docs ... TMZ Sports has learned.

Addison -- who scored four touchdowns this season -- was taken into custody by the Seminole Police Department on Monday on a misdemeanor trespassing charge.

Police documents indicate law enforcement was dispatched to the Noodle Bar, located inside the Hard Rock Casino in Tampa, Florida, after Addison, 23, refused to leave the restaurant despite several requests from casino security.

It's unclear why they wanted Addison removed.

The docs say that while being escorted out, Addison had to be redirected to the front exit multiple times before authorities ultimately arrested him for trespassing.

REfusing to leave a casino?

I'd personally like to know why they were asking him to leave. What did he do that precipitated all that from happening?


Is this going to get him more suspension time or will it be much ado about nothing?

Tomlin is one of the most overrated coaches. He's decent but his name gets thrown around as one of the greats because he's had nothing but winning seasons. That is quite the feat, but the Steelers haven't been close to being a contender since 2017. The Steelers were built to handle Baltimore but they've been absolutely trucked by any good team in the last 5+ years. I don't think they really had any impressive wins outside of beating the Ravens a couple of times. I would also add their innate ability to pull games out of their asses, if that's coaching then bravo but in no way is it sustainable.

Ask any Steelers fan, and most are happy that he's gone.

If he refused to leave a restaurant it was likely because he was either sloppy drunk, being too loud/obnoxious/belligerent or repeatedly hitting on a staff member or customer and not taking no as an answer.

i think the nfl would be overstepping if they suspended him if all he did was argue with a noodle bar manager for a few minutes for trying to shut the place down earlier than posted....

If it took several requests from security and eventually calling in the police, it took more than "a few minutes". There is also nothing I've seen to them "trying to shut the place down earlier than posted". Are you sure you didn't just make that part up?

The report notes that Addison was asked by casino security several times to leave the premises and refused. The police then attempted to get him to leave and he had to be 'redirected' several times towards the exit before they finally decided to arrest him.

He was given Notice on the spot. He can't be arrested immediately upon being given notice. He has to persist in remaining on the premises to trigger the charges. There has to be a reasonable chance afforded for him to leave on his own.

Again, what is the number of games you're OK with him missing due to suspension each year?

yes, i did make it up...but maybe the people at the noodle bar were rude to him, and he felt slighted...i don't feel like we know the 'honest' story....

being redirected? - so they arrested him? - sounds like bullshot to me....

for 2016 addison's cap hit is about $4.4mm...his 2027 5th year option will be around $17mm...that's about $11mm/yr...i'd say he's worth that even if he loses 3-4 games each year for acting like a knucklehead....
