    the pats get the benefit of the doubt.

     

    No they don't. They have been terrible with draft picks for years. On the same day they gave a pick for Russell Bodine, they also traded last year's 2nd round pick Duke Dawson for a 6th. In fact they used a 4th to trade up for Duke Dawson in the 2nd, and 1 year later he's gone for peanuts. Tom Brady and Bill Belichick make that team what it is. Their decisions aren't infallible.

    You’re so right dude.  There is no way a guy who averaged 295 yards passing/ game, competing 68% of his passes, and a 100 qb rating is better than a 52% passer, who averaged 173 yards passing/ game, with a 67.9 qb rating.  No way.  Allen and Darnold are better, right now, because they were drafted higher.  Because that’s how it always works.  Thanks for explaining football to me. ?

     

    So, by this logic, is Nate Peterman a better NFL starter today than Trevor Lawrence?

  3. I know kickers don't get hit all that often, but the one time it happens to her it could legitimately end her life. Although I have thought for a while kickers should have special protections. They aren't built like football players and they aren't meant to be physical. But until that changes a woman kicking in the NFL is a terrible idea and has the potential to blow up in the league's face.

    The difference?

     

    How about Fitz>Peterman and I’m guessing you think Allen>Rosen. So what part of the equation am I missing? 

     

    Or are you saying they should throw Rosen into their tank like the Cards did? Or like we had to with Allen because we chose Peterman to start?

     

    I don't think you understand what I'm saying at all so I'm just going to move on

    Na, na, don't be hasty.  Fitz named as starter for Game 1 does not mean Fitz will remain the starter for game 5, or game 6, much less game 16.

     

    I'll be shocked if Fitzpatrick plays all 16 games. I just don't understand what Miami has to gain by starting him in the first place. FWIW Dolphins fans and reporters are also baffled by this decision. They want to know if Rosen can show anything over a full season, because if not the team has no ties to him and can easily move on. Now they're going to be left in limbo wondering. Probably the worst case scenario for them is he comes in week 8 and looks pretty decent but not great. 16 games would give them a better evaluation. Not that I'm complaining, I'd love to see the Dolphins flounder.

    who says they don’t want to develop Rosen for the future?

     

    Considering their whole team is apparently on the trade block I would say it's pretty obvious they are tanking. Rosen, the "pro ready" prospect, is not being developed for the future in his 2nd year by a team that didn't draft him. They have 16 games to decide if they need to draft a QB next year and they decided to waste it. If you can't see the difference I don't know what else to tell you.

    No worse than starting Nathan Peterman over Allen. 

     

    Rosen is in his 2nd year and they just traded a 2nd for him. Why do they not want to see what they have? They aren't trying to develop him for the future. What did they obtain him for if not to find out if he's any good?

    Fitz would beat out a lot of starting qbs.  

     

    I mean, this is just not true.
