Just wanted to quote this for posterity.

I think it's more like 'maybe I should figure out the difference between gender and sex before I make a fool of myself'

Why do I have a feeling if that was Roberts vs the Patriots people would have said ‘Belichick teaches his guys to know the rules’? Our return guys knew exactly what happened. So did the ref. Very, very easy call and not at all controversial to rule in our favor.

Good point.

College stats lmfao

‘Honest question’ lmao Great contributions abound

Lol. Are we experiencing roster stasis? Did I say Allen’s career is likely to mirror Mahomes? I expect Allen to improve with the addition of Diggs and a second year behind the same offensive line, similar as I expected improvement from his rookie to second when they overhauled a bad offensive roster. You want some arbitrary rate of statistical improvement, do it yourself.

Well if we go by Mahomes we can expect little improvement or slight decline with same personnel. Or we could just admit it’s an exercise in futility. Growth is not linear. Different quarterbacks improve at different rates.

No. You posited a hypothetical wherein Allen returns the 2019 offense in 2020 and wondered what his improvement might be. I responded with an actual example of the best young QB in the league, returning basically the same roster, whose stats did not improve...illustrating my original point that there’s no point in looking for some non-team dependent statistical benchmarks you can point to as a referendum on a QB’s trajectory. ^said point a lot

How did Pat Mahomes’ stats look from 2018-2019 returning basically the same roster?

Who cares? Why would anyone waste time pondering a player’s improvement in a vacuum?

So when you stand shoulder to chest w someone you consider that parallel

You call that forcible contact lmao Football much

Hope you got in early cause that line went HOU-2.5 fast and betting Texans money line as a Bills fan seems less like a hedge and more like self flagellation

Tampa Bays defense was bad in points allowed because ol crablegs gave the other team the ball inside the 40 2x per game. Their defense was low key very decent. PPG is not how you evaluate the defense of a team whose QB throws 30 picks.

All reds>>>>all blues

I’ve heard of him

You could tell it got on Brown way faster than he was anticipating...I always think 'arm talent' is a dumb phrase but if there was ever a guy it applies to it's Allen

Best examples I can think of rn are the TD to Brown on sideline vs Dolphins and the endzone throw to Beasley vs Cowboys The ball looks different coming out of his hand...legit cannon

Love gin working my way thru a bottle of the botanist rn

Really? It was like the most important play of the last decade when it happened

What about the round 1 2018 draft thread...would it surprise you to see the people who hated the pick from day 1 are the same ones who jump in every thread to say their bit against Allen?

Might not have been playing on wildcard weekend, I can point to at least two games (Ravens and first Pats) too of my head that were lost pretty much singularly on receivers not being able to separate and come down with a contested catch.
