  1. I know it's obviously not true, but it looked like Brady was trying to give GB a shot when he just airmailed 3 consecutive interceptions in the 4th quarter.
  2. Lamar is really good, and I like to see football teams play the game in different ways. It's what makes football so much fun to watch, follow, and discuss.
  3. Well-said on the $$ a 50,000 salary for 25 years is 1.25 million dollars, or about 3 years salary for a fringe roster guy in the NFL. By age 25 or 26 a mid round draft pick will have earned as much or more than most Americans earn in their lifetimes.
  4. There is such a fine line between winning and losing in the playoffs. Browns, Colts and Ravens ALL could easily have advanced further last year, except for a few plays here and there that cost them. In that scenario, a wild card like Lamar can strike a defense at any time. The Ravens are never out of it with him, and that's worth a lot. Lamar can do nothing for 3 quarters then suddenly become unstoppable. He's a special and unique talent.
  5. a life sized replica of the upcoming Lombardi Trophy
  6. I think it helps players to understand/know that the coaches, front office, team ownership, etc. have taken the vaccine. It won't convince everyone, but it has to move the needle a bit, the more they see that the people running the show have already done it.
  7. I remember when Aaron Rodgers couldn't win in the playoffs too.. Oh wait... LOL But seriously, Lamar is a dangerous QB, and the Ravens were a few plays from being in the AFC Title Game. Bills were the better team, but IMO the Ravens were #3 in a pretty loaded AFC. No reason to change what they are doing. People just want to criticize Lamar because he is unique. The Ravens did the smart thing: design an offense totally around him and go all-in.
  8. I think he's a decent QB. I wouldn't say top 10, but he can make some plays and challenge defenses. That division is brutal. Between SF, Seattle and the Rams there is not a lot of room there, barring injuries. In the 7 team format it's not crazy to think all 4 NFC West teams could make the playoffs this season, especially since the rest of the conference is meh at best or has 1 good team in each division.
  9. Definitely! The Jaguars are suddenly interesting, especially with him, Lawrence, AND Meyer.
  10. 5 picks is the glass half empty perspective. The headlines could have been: "Tua throws fewer than 6 INT in practice" or "Tua throws significantly fewer than 20 INT in Practice Drills" or "Tua throws barely more than 4 INT in drills"
  11. I never realized the scene where Buck hits golf balls at Bug after letting him out of the trunk was even in the movie until I saw it on DVD. It was always edited out when it was on TV.
  12. I wouldn't sign a malcontent, washed up, slow RB that has been totally ineffective on 2 teams now since holding out an entire season for more money if he would come here for a nickel. We've got a guy in Singletary who is process personified, and is a better back today than Bell. I'm excited to see how his work with a speed coach pays off. Bills have dodged 2 disasters now in AB and Bell. Sometimes not getting a guy in FA/trade is a blessing.
  13. Although I would like to see Star sitting down to an all you can buffet to train for the season, I am very happy he is back. The defense is better with him, and he will help Oliver free up to make plays. Whatever he weighs is what McDermott and company asked him to do, so since they seem to have a good idea of how to run the team I'll defer to them, even though I love my 350 pound DTs.
  14. Best line I've heard in a while! LOL It's like NFL defenses said "challenge accepted!" right after that.
  15. I say we put the teams back in bubble wrap like last season until the real games start. Watching guys around the league go down in preseason games is going to suck.
  16. If Andy Reid coaches 6 more seasons and wins 12 games a season, he will sit at 293 wins all time at age 69. Bill Belichick is 69 right now and has 280 career wins after 20 years with Tom Brady as his QB. Another way to put that is that Andy Reid will almost certainly have more career wins than Belichick at the same point in their head coaching careers. But yes, overrated!
  17. Rams about to trade their 2037 and 2038 1st and 2nd round picks, leaving them without a 1st or 2nd until 2039.
  18. That makes sense... I am always amazed at how much work it is for professional athletes to eat enough to replace calories. Here's an article that details The Rock's eating regimen. As much as I love food, just the eating part sounds exhausting! https://manofmany.com/lifestyle/fitness/the-rock-diet-and-workout-plan
  19. LOL That's my reaction. I don't think he would have worked out well with this team if Andy Reid is too tough for him. Our RB (Singletary) is working with a speed coach trying to get faster and now looks like someone from a terminator movie. Total dedication, 100% commitment. Who knows if you can actually get faster, but if you can, he will. Then there's Le'Veon... the guy who has a problem with every team he's on. I'll give him a pass with Gase, who might be insane, but Tomlin and now Reid? Maybe he should have taken the big $$ from the Steelers and not sat out an entire season? Instead, he sits out a year and comes back slow as molasses and (allegedly) not wanting to put the work in. He was so bad with the Jets that it was pathetic.
  20. Baker could be the 3rd best QB in his own division. Lamar was a recent league MVP and Burrow looked really good last year in limited action with almost no help on an awful team.
  21. "dieting..." It seems like this regime wants all of our DL to "slim down." They even mentioned it with Rosseau. I wonder if that's why Epenesa was so thin last year.
  22. Kelce should focus on not dropping balls in big games when his QB needs a lifeline. More than once in this past Super Bowl Kelce was open for a first down and dropped a perfect ball that would have moved the chains.
  23. We've got Jones, a guy who looks more like a 3rd term congressman than an NFL QB, and Wilson, who looks like a 10th grader, in our division at QB. Seriously... One hit by a 300+ Lb DL and Wilson will go straight to IR. He looks like he weighs 150 pounds soaking wet
  24. I would rather see video of Star eating an entire large works pizza and a box of wings in preparation for being the anchor at DT
  25. The top ones for me have already been mentioned: Moulds Schobel Fred Jackson But I would also add Ruben Brown. Brown is already recognized as great, but if he was part of a top offense he would be considered one of, if not the, top guard of his era.
