    I don’t understand how a lot of sites have him as a 2nd round pick. He looks like the best QB in the draft. His pocket presence is insane.

    Quite extensive injury history, I’m not sure if that’s it, but I would be concerned. QB’s are tough to find, it’d take that risk in the first round though. Besides that, I have nothing as to why he’s not rated higher. 

  2. I actually feel bad for Milroe. I know he isn’t great, but this isn’t the same type of Bama team they’ve had in the past, yet Milroe will take a large share of the blame. Bama got pushed around tonight, that never happened in the past.

    These teams cannot throw the ball downfield 

    To be fair, Marvin Harrison Jr was the only reason any Big Ten team could throw downfield this season, and Milroe has just been awful too.

  4. Even the first playoff game I’m watching now has been terrible. The NCAA is the big loser so far this bowl season. The college football product is looking really bad. I miss the game I remember, back when everyone turned it up a notch for bowl season, and we saw good football.

    What???

     

    Kincaid has 282 YAC this year. Good for 11th among TE.

    I have no clue where stupid statements like this come from. 

     

    I think you misunderstood. I basically said I don’t think Kincaid passes the eye test of being a Kelce like playmaker, but he showed that ability more in college. The stats do indicate it’s better than it looked to me, but there’s no denying most receptions have been dump offs that limit YAC yards. That’s mostly what I blame for not being even better in that category. I appreciate the stats, because that makes your point, but Kincaid can be even better than that.

    I should have been more clear - he hasn't shown an ability to break tackles/shake free of defenders.  

     

    Regardless,  considering he's 8th in receptions, is being 11 in YAC good?

    I agree, Knox (when he actually catches the ball) looks like a threat for a big play every time, while Kincaid does appear weak by TE standards with the ball. However, Kincaid might be more the shifty type, than power runner, we just haven’t maximized that potential. I wish we could combine Kincaid’s hands with Knox’s power. With that said, Kincaid is a really good player who will only keep getting better imo. It’s not like I don’t really like Kincaid as a player.

    See, I think Shakir is kind of like Davis. He is an excellent 3rd option. He thrives in being the afterthought on offense. But I think we need someone more dynamic in the #2 role, and I don't see him as a dedicated slot player.

     

    I'd like to see Davis walk, draft a WR high to be the #2, bring in a good slot option, and then let Shakir continue in his current role, with maybe rotating at #2 some with the rookie to give him some more reps.

    I’m definitely on board with drafting a number two. My only disagreement is that I wouldn’t be fearful of trying Shakir in the slot position. The addition of a solid rookie in the number two receiver role would be huge, and frees up a lot of space in the middle of the field. Guys like Shakir developing into starting roles separate championship teams from those chasing their tails. You can only bring in so many players, draft choices need to become those guys at some point.

    Kincaid has shown zero RAC ability so far.

    I’ve noticed that with Kincaid as well. In fact it’s been my only disappointment with him. I’ve mentioned this lack of playmaking ability when folks compare him to other elite tight ends. However, that’s not what I saw from him as a college player. The NFL is obviously a step up with faster defensive players, but I’m not convinced his RAC ability is as bad as appears. I don’t think the routes he’s asked to run put him in the best position to make plays. He’s taking on a role that’s similar to running backs as outlet receivers.

    Washington dominated in the best conference (Pac12) this year. Penix vs Ewers should be a dual for the ages. I kinda like Washington here.

    I’ve questioned Washington, but the more I look at Texas, they’ve gotten a lot of mileage out of the early season Bama win. The Longhorns had an easy schedule outside of Bama, and still managed a loss to Oklahoma. Texas is a good football team, but I don’t think they defeat Washington easily as many assume. The possibility of a big Bama win over Michigan is more likely. 

  9. If the offense looks good in the playoffs, keep Brady. If we fall short with the offense still looking average, maybe it’s time for a fresh prospective. He’s done a lot of good things, but this offense struggles mightily without Diggs being elite every game. The Dallas game where Cook went crazy was the exception with someone unexpected stepping up. I don’t think you can replace the elite version of Diggs, but I’m not fully satisfied with how Brady makes use of the roster. I have yet to see Brady or Dorsey use Shakir and Kincaid the way they should be utilized. Allen is elite, we need to put him and his teammates in better positions to succeed.

    At least we will know before kickoff whether it’s an elimination game or just a matter of seed (#2 or 6 or 7)

    I like that from a fan perspective. However, if we clinch a playoff spot before the game, I don’t trust us to play as well. It seems like Allen and this team are best with their backs against the wall. The number two seed is still important, and I don’t want them to play flat knowing they’re in.

    It’s complete horse 💩…either the ref is an incompetent moron and should be fired immediately for not knowing how to ref a game or he’s dirty and blew off decker clearly trying to report. Until the NFL holds refs accountable for making mistakes we will always have this BS that taints an otherwise awesome sporting event. 
     

    Fix the problem by making them full time and accountable to get suspended and fired for doing a bad job. No more “tenured” lifetime gigs for these dudes with no repercussions for sucking at your job 

    Don’t hold your breath on accountability. ESPN has been busy making excuses since it happened.

    I think this is correct 

     

    Aikman was wrong twice … he did report and it wasn’t an illegal formation 

    Right, I hear people talking about illegal formation, but the ref didn’t call it. So I don’t understand people saying “it was an illegal formation anyway”. That’s not what they called, so the play would have stood.
