  1. I think he's less troll and more incel, but if he is a troll then he does fine work.
  2. I don't subscribe to any theory that garbage time stats have a significant impact on the overall stats of a QB over the course of a season. I'm sure there's an exception out there where a team stunk and was blown out frequently, but the QB ended up with substantially better season long stats from things that happened when they were say...14 plus points down in games they ended up losing. It's certainly not the norm and I would seriously doubt that it would impact this particular 'contest' between the two QBs to any degree worth mentioning.
  3. Homerism aside..and ignoring my issues with the way Deboll calls an offense...I don't see how Darnold throws more TD passes than Allen. The talent around him, so many new players, and his coach make it seem like an uphill battle for him.
  4. I'm interested to see the conclusion of the NFL investigation into this 37 years from now. I suspect it could be a real blow to Snyder's corpse.
  5. 1st team offense went against 2nd string defense and 2nd team offense went against 1st string defense
  6. We're not here to kink shame. You do you.
  7. I thought the cards just drafted a QB...why are they angling for the #1 overall pick?
  8. How much of the covid did you drink?
  9. So what you're saying is that you just hate everything all of the time?
  10. They should keep a QB on the roster just for this..Fitz might shake loose in Miami when Tua takes over.
  11. I feel like the dude with the hulk hand on a stick needs to give more effort
  12. I don't think it will be as big of a deal as it seems, but an NHL game is a different experience. The way fans interact with the game is wholly different (like a direct effect on the opposition when they're trying to call plays). Not to mention ~15-20k people compared to 60k plus.
  13. Not necessarily surprised he didn't know that before ?
  14. turns out there's big money in being a douchebag. You have no problem screwing people over and other douchebags will love you.
  15. Unfortunately, Joe Douglas seems competent so I doubt he makes this move. Just signing this guy to the massive contract he'll get is a mistake let alone any draft capital used for him.
  16. If only there was an entity that was responsible for investigating crimes...
  17. I hope the Jets do everything they can to get him a 1000 yard season
  18. Oh, just f*ck you, 2020
  19. Yes, there are exception that prove the rule, but I wouldn't take those odds in vegas
  20. It's not a personal attack to point out that you're wrong...
  21. If you pointed out all the times he's wrong...you won't have time to do anything else.
  22. Diggs is an important piece and I don't think it's easy to quantify how a true #1 can have a cascading effect on the rest of the offense. It's a make or break year for Allen because: - This is about as good of supporting cast on offense as you can expect (to be clear, not saying they're great or amazing, but year in / year out you can't expect much better) so if he can't do it with these guys...then he's not going to be able to do it most years - QBs who dwell in the bottom of the rankings for 3 straight years generally don't go on to become 'good' QBs - Continuity on offense - A clear and fixable problem (deep ball) that could change the entire offense (defenses have to back up and open up more allowing easier reads) - Diggs, even if he only meets lower expectations here, is a game changer. His abilities line up in this offense and Allen's problem areas. He pushes two very good receivers down the depth chart into roles they should be able to flourish in as well. - If he can't read defenses or continues to struggle under pressure that's not likely en 'experience' issue any more If Allen can't get the offense out of the basement this year then it's pretty unlikely he's going to...History isn't kind to QBs who dwell in the bottom of the rankings for 3 straight years. I say all of this as a huge Allen fan. He's a gamer and I love his mentality, but he's got to show he can take an offense to the middle of the pack in the NFL. Yes, if that happened then that would be an extremely tough situation to overcome, but regardless of supporting cast..a QB needs to perform at some point and QBs who have had poor stats and offenses for 3 years rarely 'turn it around' even with a better supporting cast.
  23. damn...Belichick has jedi mind tricked them into recording themselves for him...
  24. I'm not sure he makes their roster. He's 32 and coming off his worst year in a rather unremarkable career.
