On the Kyle brant with Josh podcast one time last year, Allen said he only spends what his financial advisor allows him to spend. He indicated that he has not gone crazy on a car yet, though he has some “toys” maybe a raptor which is a $100k pickup I think. He said his financial advisor is ex Syracuse QB Troy Nunes.
Von falling out of the 100 would be pretty harsh, considering his play and objectively calculated impact before that awful detroit turf destroyed the season.
I thought the job he did propping up Orton off the couch with a few weeks to go before the season after finally convincing Whaley that EJ couldn’t play - as well as Tuell, Thad etc was pretty good.
all the podcasts and campniks last summer were touting shakir like he was the steal of the draft, already had a pro game, great instincts etc. - not unlike the Kincaid raves this year.
That substitute writer really got to the point. I was reading reading and bam the report was over. I like the emphasis on the short passing game. Allen could be the greatest dink and dunker in league history because he can destroy you long any play.
Can’t figure out the dolphins strategy - they get rid of great players in their prime who are going to cost money, mincah, tunsil. Then use the savings to break the bank on declining assets past their prime, Chubb, Ramsey.
Tarkenton retired at 38 as the all time passing leader in an era when qbs were not protected and no one knew anything about nutrition or physical therapy. Maybe it was his great scrambling that helped him avoid taking huge hits standing in the pocket.
