Yeah that’s what I said...Jesus... Velocity wasn’t measured at the combine until 2008. Even that is testing 20-23 year old kids/young men. Who will inevitably improve in strength and speed over the course of the next 5+ years of their lives. One, because of body maturation. Two, access to, and full time training with NFL coaching staffs. You are assuming that after the combine arm strength/velocity can only go down. They aren’t pitchers and don’t throw nearly the same number of fast balls or torque their elbows as often. Because of that, I would assume an NFL QB could see an increase in velocity until their late 20’s to early 30’s. For all we know Brady’s arm is on the decline, and 5 years ago he was chucking 65mph. Inversely, Josh Allen or Mahomes might be singing it at 70mph in the next 3 years. It is not a widely tracked stat over the course of a QB’s career, and we don’t have a baseline for Brady from day one. It’s a silly speculation because you hate the guy. If JA is throwing at 65mph 15 years from now, I am sure it will be because he’s tough as nails and a leader of men...

I don’t really get the PED stuff when people accuse Brady. He doesn’t run faster. Isn’t increasing aerobically. Not adding mass. Not leaning out. Honestly, football is largely a game of genetic freaks with an emphasis on anaerobic skill. Which is largely born and not “trained” the same way an aerobic base is. Brady isn’t really showing signs of PED other than being better with body maintenance and diet.

Thank you! The anger shouldn't be directed at Kaep necessarily. Why is there so little outrage that white supremacists and nationalists are using the OG American flag to replace the confederate flag. I am not sure I am with Kaep on this one, but this is a valid concern. I just think he is ahead of the curve on this issue actually. As the confederate flag is being phased out amongst the under class (yes, underclass, if you are a racist, you belong there), they have learned to adopt the Betsy Ross flag. While it has yet to catch on (give it 150 years) like the confederate flag, it is happening.

Ok. Well he made less "aggressive" throws with less production than Driskel, Winston, Eli, Darnold, Trubisy, Dak, Flacco, Lamar Jackson, Keenum, Beathard, Foles, Watson, Fitz, Andy Dalton, Baker Mayfield. Deshaun Watson.

With significantly less production

As the OP, I just thought it was an interesting single piece of data, worthy of an offseason talking point. I don't think it paints an entire picture, it is one small part of a much larger puzzle worth discussing. Also didn't mean to make this Allen specific.

I think the takeaway is a little different. He’s only throwing the ball to receivers with less than a yard of separation about 13% of the time. He’s not throwing into tight windows. The context comes in when talking about why his passer rating is so low. Your issue with aggressive is pedantic. You’re missing the point. Albeit, “aggressive coverage” might be a better term.

Hahaha. I totally wasn't meaning to go there. If anything we got about the same Josh based on this stat line.

It is literally in the first line...In a thread with like 2 replies, that answer would have taken about 5 seconds.

Thought this was a cool bit of info. Aggressiveness is measured as a throw with a defender <1 yard away. Interesting Rosen is the highest for "aggressive" throws. Brady and Rogers are pretty low. JA is slightly below average for "aggressive" throws with the worst passer rating.

it is not just his fiscal discipline and at a whim. If he hasn't touched that money, he is making about $2mil per year in interest.... Wowza!

As a young guy in my 30's, can you explain the significance of Mr. Treesweet? Also, why was OJ checking himself into the hospital?

7/12 interceptions were in the division....

Agreed. I think trust goes both ways for a QB. He has to trust his WR. But he also has to trust his own decision making and ability. Unsure JA is just saying he didn’t trust his WR’s here. He may not have trusted himself to either make the throw, or the read. That’s not a knock, if anything I hope that’s what he was saying as well because it would be a pretty honest appraisal of his current skill set.

Dude, what? You asked what what I meant by trending down. I simply responded with, if what CBS, predicts happened the Bills will have lost more games every year for 3 years under the current regime. In most cases that means you are making more wrong decisions than right ones. Again, this is all predicated on an article that has the Bills picking top 5 next year. The point is IF that happens, then the result would be they got worse every year. If that DOES NOT happen, then this whole thing is meaningless, and year 2 just happened to be a down year for the staff.

Happy to. Year 1- Playoffs Year 2- Top 10 pick Year 3- Top 5 pick. thats the wrong direction

As much as I disliked AZ's move from Rosen so early, mostly because I am not as high on Kyler in the NFL as others...what ever that is worth.... If the Bills somehow end up with the 4th pick, and keep moving in the wrong direction, somebody probably loses their job. That also probably means the Allen had a very bad year. I would take a QB there.

I need to him to start making better decisions, and finding the open receiver, rather than the big play. He also has to see the field better. I would like to see 60% completion, 200+ yards per game. More passing touchdowns than interceptions. more than 7 yards per attempt. I will feel much better about him in year 3 if he can get to this point. I won't really love a year where he completes 56% of his passes for 3000 yards with 15/21 TD:INT and 6.6 yards per attempt. That stat line would put him at about 20th in the league last year.

Mentioned it on the one of the prospect videos I watched. I’ll have to dig up which one it was. His targets went down every year, deducted it was because he only caught 6-10 his senior year.

I sort of agree. I think special teams play is always a good indication of roster depth. Obviously Crossman was a very serious issue, but we’ve gutted the roster the last two years as well. It hasn’t been a surprise they haven’t been good.

He was credited with 4 drops on 10 targets last season...

Dad has got to ask questions right? I mean a quick quick google search shows both is son and daughter are both way taller than he or his wife. Not to mention she’s way out of his league. ?

John is the same kind of person who runs Marshawn Lynch out of town as a dirt bag. All because he had his parked car searched in CA, under probable cause because the cop smelled weed when he walked to the car. That POS tested sober and had some pot and a registered gun in the trunk. What a dirt bag...??‍♂️

The DK hype and Harry ‘skill’ are analysts and fans moving to fantasy footballs DK gets hyped because maybe he can put up a ton of points. NK gets pushed down by pundits because he’ll jusr be consistently productive. I will say, with the way the draft fell, I thought for sure NH would fall to the second. Would be worth a trade up into the 33-38 range for him. Didn’t think the Pats would take him at 32.

I would be absolutely SHOCKED. No way DK fits what they do in NE. Should note, I’m not on the DK train. At least not in the first. And probably wouldn’t trade up in the 2nd for him either.
