Whoever builds the better team will have more success the qb matters to a point. Eli Manning is a borderline HOF QB with two SB wins in which he played great. Peyton is a HOF QB. Flacco played that postseason out of his mind. Only the Philly win falls outside of the “great QBs win SBs” argument — and Brady still almost won it. QB is everything in the NFL. There are only a handful of stories of great teams with average QB play who won championships.

It's usually called when refs hear specific derogatory remarks, I think. Like, remember when Diggs taunted the Pats CB on his way to a TD last year? He was clearly looking back at him and holding the ball out as he went into the ez. I was really word that would get called, but it didn't. I think if you action the ball towards a player or get really insulting with your words, then they throw it every time. That was true in the past, but the NFL put the dreaded “Point of Emphasis” on taunting this off-season to reduce the amount of actions - just like that - directed at other teams players. They wanted any action that appeared directed at an opposing player - things like flexing, spiking a ball, spinning the ball, yelling, pounding the chest, etc. if done in the direction of an opposing player that could be interpreted as potentially derogatory or inflammatory in nature to be called. Players can celebrate, but they wanted them to do it away from the defenders. It is one of those calls that they go overboard in preseason - make a few calls week 1-3 or 4 and then let it slide back as long as the players don’t get to over the top.

Eli manning played 15 years and only had 30+ tds 3 times meanwhile he has had years when he has thrown 20, 25,27 Int's in a season with a career 60% completion percentage. Sorry payton manning played horrible in 2015 he had 54% completion percentage averaging 179 yds per game and had 2TD and 1 interception combined in 3 games lol

Lots of teams make the playoffs; not all have great QBs. The teams who win the SB typically get great QB play during the playoffs. In Peyton’s case, the Broncos had a tremendous defense but there is no doubt Peyton’s leadership as a HOF QB meant something. I haven’t scoured this thread but I’m guessing you’re a Browns fan since an earlier post mentioned Baker. I guess you’re saying he doesn’t need to be great for the Browns to win, and I’d agree with that proposition during the regular season because the Browns have a very good roster. In the playoffs, however, your QB needs to be better than average.

If they don’t get a SB win within 2 years and then they sign Baker long term i’d bet that they won’t win one. Time will tell yes i am a browns fan that became a bills fan for the short time when the browns left. i root for both teams now unless they play each other. well that brings me back to how this all got started with NewEra i guess it doesnt matter if they sign baker if he plays well in the playoffs ? see below playoff stat lines 😁 Allen 60.8% 5TD 1int 87.4 rating Lamar 55.88 % 3TD 5 INT 68.3 rating Baker 61.97% 4TD 1INT 94.0 Rating

Bangarang Posted August 19, 2021 Posted August 19, 2021 Huge injury for the Jets. Lawson has been having an excellent camp based on everything I’ve read.
LeGOATski Posted August 19, 2021 Author Posted August 19, 2021 I'm interested to see more Jalen Hurts tonight. Will he be worth drafting in fantasy football...
LeGOATski Posted August 21, 2021 Author Posted August 21, 2021 KC vs Arizona on NFLN right now... Chiefs looks smooth, as always. Isaiah Simmons on the Cards is a stud.
LeGOATski Posted August 21, 2021 Author Posted August 21, 2021 Kyle Murray should throw the ball away and try to draw a roughing the passer call....
