RoyBatty is alive

He is betting on Tagovailoa to ascend is he and then claims the Dolphins have a higher ceiling? LOL. Well maybe all except the most important position , QB. Anyone that thinks Tua has a higher ceiling than J Allen is delusional. And three seasons predictions in the NFL are fairly worthless, you can easily go from one of the best to worst or vice versa trams in the NFL given three years,

My Uncle got me a ticket to that game, one of the best games I ever saw. I will never forget it. I remember how Howard Cossell and the MNF announcers were in a box visible to the fans and so many drunks were giving him the finger but he didn't seem to care.

oh aint that the truth, they would spend half a show on him easy I bet they worm their way into talking about former Cowboy Beasley and the Vaccine blah blah blah.

I agree with both of your points. So half say they never watch it while the other half complain the Cowboys are on it, cant please anyone. Fact is Dallas is an excellent candidate. Jerry Jones is amusing all by himself and the Cowboys have a LOT of HATERS and a lot of FANS, probably no more polarizing team than the Cowboys.

I keep reading how of tern Oliver was double teamed last year. Anyone have any real data on this, like what percent of the time he was doubl?. And when you say double i assume you mean legitimate double teamed, not one guy chipping him.

Bill Belichek would disagree

You cant slip anything past "the writers", i guess their first clue was out drafting 2 DE in the first two rounds.

I also think Diggs numbers will be down. Replicated that year will be very difficult and Allen will have more options as you note.

Who knows about Beasley, he might be zero, if he doesnt play I think that changes the entire dynamic for the passing game. I hope Knox numbers increase (assuming no Ertz). Kroft, Brown Smith Roberts will all be zeros.

For some reason that doesn't surprise me one bit.

Great! Congrats to Jessica.

As I said, this debate I have no interest. The real question for me is not who is to blame for starting a QB selected at #5 but who was to blame for Picking him at #5.

The AFL really opened up the game, made it fun. NFL to me as a kid was boring as heck, three yards and a cloud of dust.

WE will disagree and not going to debate every nuance of starting/not starting a QB that I think sucks, is not anything that interests me but I will say comparing starting Tua versus Peterman/Tyrod is absurd.

Maybe. Yes we shall see how he develops but I think Tua sucks and I am not going to put the blame on Flores. Flores did what he had to to try and win games. Tua is a bigger injury prone version of Mac Jones. Alabama products great with short passes, highly accurate in college where they consistently played inferior teams. Lets see how Jones handles real pressure & competition on the NFL. If he fizzles out, i wont be shocked at all.

I have to agree on Flores, I think he is an excellent head coach, what he did with the Dolphins his first year was a borderline miracle, remember people used to snicker at the Dolphins for trading away talent and recall the Tank for Tua comments. (ironically they end up with him and I think Tua will be at best a mediocre starting NFL QB).

Same mantra we heard over and over here about London Fletcher when he was a Bill, after he left he played another 7 years with 4 pro bowls.

Did your youngest daughter go there on a football scholarship?

Lack of speed in a small RB is a killer in the NFL. I think much of the problem with Devins very low yards before contact/attempt is his lack of speed. And Zach Moss is no speed demon either. I dont think the Bills current regime has done a good job at drafting RBs. I think that is why they signed Matt Breida, we finally have some speed in the backfield.

Yes, the academic strain at Miami must be brutal

I would agree with all of your assertions but not ready to say Mario >>Rousseau/Epenesa/Basham. All three of those guys have unknown capabilities, even Epenesa with the way his weight is varying so much. And IMO, Williams was sporadic, had great games intermixed with mediocre efforts.

Pete Rozelle award winner. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2021/06/28/john-facenda-posthumously-honored-with-hall-of-fames-pete-rozelle-award/ He certainly had a great voice for NFL films.

I dont think "perfectly" thrown balls that come out exactly where they are supposed to be is an ideal for a receiver. Until we have robots as QBs most balls in game time will not be anything close to perfectly thrown balls, I would rather have my receivers have the practice adjusting to imperfectly thrown balls. Now if you just want to do the drills nd no QB available, sure why not.

Thanks, good read. Coming out of Northern Iowa and not having a 2020 football season at all of course Brown is going to be raw. He appears to have the physical tools and the right work ethic. He has seemed to really adopt the Bills having celebrated jumping on a table. Absent injuries we dont need him to start anytime soon wo sounds like a great potential risk reward. I have to thin Spencer has a very high ceiling.

What changed was KC O Line was a mess, i think they were without both starting tackles.
