I'm on the pro-Barkley train. It seems to be the unpopular opinion because it's an era of QB's above all else and RB's being "a dime a dozen" (still untrue, but it continues to be a talking point), and yeah I guess Barry Sanders never won a ring, but Barkley is a true generational talent. Everybody knew he was going to be good but nobody expected this so soon, and he's getting better every single week. Put a threat like that with any rookie QB and they've got the best offensive safety blanket in the league for years to come.

Matty Ice is so under-rated, I don't care who hates that opinion. The guys is in the upper echelon statistically and recently took his team to the Super Bowl, and the talking heads still act as if he needs to turn a corner, like he's in the Ryan Tannehill tier or something. Blows my mind. The fact that he's 8th on that index currently says everything. He's never really good enough to be on the A team and has to prove it every year it seems. Same for Julio Jones, really. The guy might have 1,800 yards receiving this year yet he's always getting knocked for his touchdown totals. It's as if the whole Atlanta offense is still getting dinged for that Super Bowl meltdown.

Typically you'd just play Ridley, but he's up against the Cards who are shutting down second receivers, and I figure Zay has to get targets. This is for the semifinals so I'm scrutinizing everything. Thoughts?

I think there's a notable difference. You know Lamar Jackson is going to run. Allen is known for having a cannon, and the mobility isn't surprising, but the multiple 100 yard rushing games definitely is. All thing considered I think you can certainly say that Allen is currently harder to "figure out". He's a freak and his ceiling is ridiculous if he can put it all together. He has a better arm than Lamar, and is surprisingly just as good on the ground. I don't find the point too far fetched.

Edge not being in yet is a travesty. Can't say I've really heard anybody call Shady a "lock" yet but I'm hopeful that he's got another big season or two left in him. I'm rooting for him to make it, although I'm cool if we move on.

Could McAfee have been more of a douche in his response? "Real football players get decleated"? What a stooge. No matter how much you try to be the "cool punter" Pat, you're still just a punter. No amount of interviews with current players or attempts at historical revision will ever change that - you were a friggin punter. And I don't know why at this point, but I'm continuously amazed by the amount of Twitter troglodytes with cut-off sleeves responding to this as if Mrs. Haushka is in the wrong and as if Steve just needs to "sack up, bro". Idiocracy for real. I feel like we're about a decade away from Presidential debates being replaced with steel caged ladder matches.

Also has more than Dion Lewis, Kenyan Drake...and every QB in the league. Crazy. I did not expect that when we drafted him. Of course everybody wants to see him put the passing game together but how is anybody whining about the QB adding 100 yards on the ground every game?

LOL a Crossman apologist? Well at least it's a unique angle. Do you I guess

As a happily married man, the incel rage on here is palpable sometimes. Sad really. Bunch of lost, angry little boys.

So kicking a woman while she's disoriented and on the ground isn't brutal? WTF man? Your sarcasm is obvious. Some of you are really showing your true colors here.

Some deranged ***** children on this board. Anybody trying to justify or dismiss this in any way is a complete and utter scumbag.

Classy move on Allen to accept it. Ramsey is a clown.

Can't love this enough

Excluding the first pick and future of Cleveland, this is the best performance by a rookie QB all year. Rosen and Darnold what?

Certainly not dumber than Blake Bortles apologists. The Jags are the dumbest organization in the league for continuing to trot him out there. Serves them right.

Is this the best game of Kyle Williams career? Incredible

Karma's a B word. Hopefully Ramsey will be seen as the absolute cancer that he is by year end. Entitled POS

I don't care if this is a new trash rivalry of dumpster teams, I frigging hate the Jags. This is awesome!

Kyle Williams having a ***** game. Lawson having a ***** season! He'd destroy Fournette and his rickety knees, get the ***** out of here

That drive was about as bad for Jalen Ramsey as it could have been. Love it.

Carr is also like "dude I'm throwing to the corpse of Brandon LaFell and some guy named Marcell Ateman because you gutted my receiving corps"

Gruden is such a dweeb. That visor still, man??? He's like the Guy Fieri of football coaches, I really can't stand him.

One of our simulation overlords isn't a Redskins fan apparently. I will not be watching that play again. Feel awful for him. Alex Smith is a great story and seems like an even better dude. Hope he can make it back with the help of modern medicine.

AP is an anomaly. He's cyborg Earl Campbell. He will be top-5 of all time when it's all said and done. He's old and missed time for good reason so it seems like people kind of forgot how incredible he was when he was at the top of his game. Were it not for bad knees and bad decisions he would possibly be in the discussion for best of all time. That said, McCoy is up there. He's definitely still showing flashes but I don't think a rebuilding team like this needs to bank on an aging superstar. Let him get his ring and reach 12,000 yards with a contender. We can't overlook RB though. Marcus Murphy ain't gonna cut it. We should only move on from McCoy because of his age and salary, but we need to replace him with somebody young and legitimately good - not a stopgap journeyman who may have a good year. This is a fantastic Carl Crawford drop but we've got to give Shady more credit than that. He's more Rickey Henderson than Carl Crawford at this point. Maybe Tim Raines if we're really being specific.

OK I'm fine with Barkley and Allen moving forward. Great day for Zay!
