The second question and answer comes off to me as LaFleur outright lobbying Miami to give Malik Willis someone to throw to. He was pretty vocal about it. Is there subtext about a potential Dontayvion Wicks trade?

@hypocritex @OmarKelly I read what you wrote which is why I included the quotes of open field tackler, good form, good technique etc.

@Macstradamous @OmarKelly Sonny’s tackling leaves a lot to be desired. He doesn’t have great tackling power and is often getting dragged when he tackles. I fear he may be a bit of a workout warrior.

In better news, I found a bug in the WebSocket implementation of OpenClaw's OpenAI API implementation that causes these "yes I will do x" for GPT 5.4 - and then the model just stops.
We didn't send the new "phase" parameter. We'll do in the release coming later today. #new-phase-parameter" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">developers.openai.com/api/docs/guide…
Also found a bug in how @Kimi_Moonshot Coding toolcalls are handled, which will stop degraded performance.
Also sneaking in fixes from our friends at @ollama and @alibaba_cloud (Model Studio support)

@Marcel_LJ Out of a possible 51 games he’s missed ~32 due to injury coming off a QB who can’t stay healthy. With a GM that said you have to look at trends and patterns of availability and determine if that is a problem.
Not sure I see that as something this regime sees appeasing.

Not sure what the asking price will be, but Jon-Eric Sullivan should have a conversation with Chris Ballard before he leaves Indianapolis

Cassell was traded for, which disqualifies him. But he was a decent backup come-up story. But is that the level of success you want from Malik Willis?
RIP@rip327
@OmarKelly What about Matt Cassell and Jeff Hostetler? They received starts last season before free agency only because the starter got hurt.

Tahj Washington is in there hiding though.

I love Cignetti and I would love him in Miami but I do wonder how quickly he would adapt his college strategy to something completely different in the pros.
His college strategy is essentially the pro equivalent of acquiring a bunch of veterans with a ton of experience via trade and free agency. It’s a “fuck them kids” strategy. He has one of the oldest teams in college football.
But the NFL is a young man’s game. We have seen up close some of the pitfalls of relying too much on those free agents, veterans, and big trade targets.

My issue with NFL officiating -- I don't see a material difference between Jordyn Brooks standing over Pat Freiermuth last week and Darren Waller staring down a DB while he spikes the ball
One flagged for taunting, one wasn't
Not advocating for Waller to be flagged, just looking for consistency
