The Biggest Board Meltdown Ever
#1
Would have been if:

We'd traded Mixon as many wanted and he would have had this week for another team.

Let's get real.

No team would've taken his contract.

Not really the point but, we've already paid the big guarantee money.

It would have just shown it was the coaching. I still think they have to move on.

Biggest meltdown today is Carolina fans realizing the front office passed on 2 firsts and a 2nd for Burns. They were literally calling him that in their game day thread. “Two firsts and a second taken out by a TE”.
Although to be fair, 2 firsts from the Rams had to be in like ‘30 and ‘31.

What is the point really?

Okay.

What if they traded him and got a great player and Perine would've scored 5 TDs, but Mixon got 2 ypc on his new team?

The whole board erupts in joy!!

The point is: We're fans and often have no idea what we're talking about. 

For instance, after the Browns game, everybody who owned an internet device started a thread about how we were done and cursed with a HC

Would have caused a meltdown on massive scale for sure, but the biggest on the boards ever is a it of a stretch.

The board goes has nuclear meltdowns over any little thing and probably always will.

But the Bengals going 33 years in between SB appearances while never ever winning one, plus 30 years straight without a playoff win is tinder for those meltdowns to happen a little prematurely too.

Pretty much.  Gotta agree with that.

If you told me last year's team was going to make it to the Superbowl early in the season I'd say you were high AF.

Hate to bring this one up, but I cannot see how trading Mixon only for him to score 5 TDs the next week, would have been nearly as big a board meltdown as the one that must have happened following the Steelers playoff game. I was on holiday so I was very lucky to both miss that game and this forum's reaction to it. But christ, it must have been (understandably) quite rabid in here around then.

This board melted down after every loss. Funny how a win brings back the bandwagon.

If the Bengals would have accepted a 6th round pick, I'm sure someone would have taken the contract.

I'd say the Bills board is in full blown meltdown right now.

So many teams that were supposed to be good are garbage:

Indy

LA Rams

ARZ

Raiders

GB

Bengals would have won this week, anyway, IMO.

A thread, a few pages, sure. The biggest board meltdown ever? Nah.

If you stay after losses and are negative, you are deemed a hater.

If you avoid the boards after a loss (probably a wise choice), you are labeled a bandwagon.

Drafting Chase over Sewell is still a bigger meltdown than that would've been.
