I thought this was announcing he was dead. Glad to see it isn't. Always liked Mort during the draft season and was shocked to see him looking so ill a few years ago. Glad he's still going strong, and good for him for quitting ESPN

But not as interesting to listen to

The podcast format is better. They have the full hours but also split up into topics, or the segments where sal talks to them. This means you can pick and choose what to listen to rather than all of it which can be a bit much. I do enjoy the podcasts during the season

I read that the rams have a huge number of rookies on the team, that's what seems to have started the tanking talk with them.

Is he a Phins fan? I assumed KC, he seems to drool over them every chance he gets

You're very lucky to have such a phenomenal QB

That's good. 357 times a day isn't enough

It's okay, Patrick (The Greatest Sports Person in the History of Mankind) can throw the ball to himself and still move up and down the field

They can absolutely be run on. Their run D ranked in the middle of the league last season. The Bills have never been able to effectively run it during Allen's time with the team, something a lot of his critics forget, so it'll be interesting to see if they can genuinely improve with the new guards and Cook being the lead back. It doesn't need to be dominant, just something teams take seriously. Also want to see some quick short passes to take advantage of the middle of their defense, which is the weakest part. It's probably asking too much for Kincaid to have a great day in his first ever regular season game but hopefully he and Knox can cause those LBs problems. Would also be good to see Cook get involved with the passing game.

Finally we can sign Mario Williams

Yes you're right, thank God the phenomenon of hot takes within the media hasn't yet reached the NFL

The point is, a loss doesn't mean they're destined to miss the playoffs. Even though that will become the narrative by tuesday morning

Erm no, I'm saying teams often start badly but ultimately it has no bearing on their overall season. Instead of your Pats I'll use the bengals and burrow's 4 interceptions last season instead

Great, he can't even jinx us properly

I don't think this will happen but imagine if the Bills blew them out? The NY media would just crucify the Jets and Rodgers (well, Saleh more than anyone). The truth is, even if we lose this game it's not a huge deal in the grand scheme of things. We destroyed NE on opening day 31-0. The team's seasons ended a little differently as I recall. In fact those great Pats teams often started slowly.

Well the ideal for us is the offense starts well and builds a good lead to they have to lean on Rodgers in the second half

No problem man, I do my best

I think the winner should get Kair Elam's notebook

It'll be interesting to see what Arizona does with Kyler this season and, if they do finish with pick 1, what they're able to get for Kyler (and how that insane contract they gave him plays into things). I'd imagine the drama queens at ESPN are praying for this to happen as it'll make a very interesting offseason for them.

Are you onboard with the Williams hype? As someone who doesn't watch the college game much I can honestly say I'm pretty stunned when I watch him and some of the things he does. There have been lots of electric guys playing QB in college who are highlight machines but he seems different. His passes just look so smooth and fluid, the arm strength is great, he's got wheels, seems to have coolness under pressure. I do completely get the Mahomes comparisons. It'll be fascinating to see how he does when he turns pro.

Yeah I meant to say that in my post. Never mind having to face him, the NFC just needs some good young QBs to balance things out a bit.

I don't really watch college ball but I've been watching some of this guy. Originally I wanted to see if the hype was real, then because he's just so damn good to watch. I hear a lot about him being Mahomes-esque and I actually can see that. Man, he throws a pretty pass, and his movement is so smooth and fluid. That pass he made as he headed out of bounds Vs Nevada was actually Allen-esque. He gets a lot of time to throw which is always something to take into account but wow, I'd be shocked if this guy isn't great in the NFL. And this brings me to who gets him next year. There's a lot of talk about certain teams tanking for him (mainly the Cards and Rams). That will definitely be one of the things to look out for later in the season. If the Cards get the number 1 pick it'll be interesting to see what they do with Kyler and what they'll be able to get for him in a trade (hasn't he made noises that he may not come out?) You have to imagine McVay is frothing at the mouth at the thought of getting this guy. What do the college experts think?

I predict this thread gets bumped every time he has a sack

Oh *****, not again. Didnt this old fart pick us to be in it last year? He must be on Andy Reid's payroll.

I sure hope we don't end up revisiting his thread with comments like "looks like Fraizer wasn't the problem after all" if it ends up being even worse under McD How aggressive were his defenses in Carolina?
