Stone cold post of the century, of the week.

it's a tough call, he did one of those side hits where you try to lead with your shoulder by you really lead with the side of your head, because that's how the human body works. It's bad form and I hate that style of tackle. Unfortunately, Latimer braced for the tackle by leading with the side of his head too. There didn't seem to be any malice in it, just bad technique by two players at the same time.

When he realizes he's getting pressured, he's pretty damn good. He seems to find himself in too many situations though where he loses his pocket presence.

Tua probably deserves to be a 5th round pick based on how he'll do in the pros, but he'll get all the Kyler Murray hype and some team will draft him (likely Phins) at the top of the first.

I don't doubt that we have a different set of morals and how we apply them to ethics but that's not what's at play here. The Author, the OP, and by extension you, seem to be willing to place blame for a crime on customers of a service of which it's highly likely that they have no direct knowledge of. Now if you were to tell me that they were aware of the circumstances, or even sought out such circumstances, ala Epstein, that would be a different matter entirely. I see no evidence presented in this article to even indicate that was remotely the case. What I see is a woman with a drug problem and a pimp that enabled it and then leveraged it. Pretty classic story here. This isn't about a girl kidnapped from a small mid-west town and sold on an underground chinese black-market. My statement about coffee and chocolate hardly seems absurd to me. If you really want to look into where the things you buy come from: clothes, electronics, textiles, etc let alone more dubious products and services like drugs and sex, you could draw a lot of lines from decent upstanding people who pay their taxes, love their family and support their community, to international crime, human trafficking and defacto or even literal slavery.

He's absolutely going to be top-bill on the first ballot.

You might be standing alone there. Eli is as good as most of the QBs in the hall and is a 2 time SB MVP and Champion. He's playing at an fortunate time where we've probably watched the #1,#2,#3 QBs of all time play in the league simultaneously

And so do people who drink coffee or eat chocolate. This is nonsense. There's no reason to exaggerate the point here. Bills players involved in prostitution, ok sure. Bills players involved in human trafficking, yea not unless OJ found a new hobby.

See I see that as his most likely destination. Bust QBs tend to not play games like he did last week. I don't think he has the tools to be a top guy, but if he keeps getting better he can be the kind of guy that you can win with. He'll win games for you like he did last week and he'll lose games for you too, but I don't see him ever doing the kinds of things Brady, Brees, Mahomes or even Watson (in a valiant losing effort) did last week. He might be able to be the version of Rivers that actually gets it done though.

I think Manning makes it twice, once as a colt and once as a bronco.I think he had two hall of fame careers and no one even noticed.

This isn't human trafficking. It's prostitution. Saying they were "involved" seems to imply they were involved in keeping her a prostitute, but what she claims is that they were clients. Big big difference there which makes for a misleading article and post by the OP

He's never been very good to begin with. 3 winning seasons in 8 years and this one looks like another stinker too. He's always been capable of huge games, but he's often had suspect decision making and an unreal ability to throw a terrible ball at the worst possible times.

Shouldn't week 1 count as time served?

I had mono as a teenager, and it essentially made me sleep 16 hours a day.

You have to look into their methodology to see where/why this happens. This is all data driven: Performance is measured according to “VALUE,” a regression between ESPN’s Total QBR yards above replacement and basic box score numbers (including rushing stats) from a given game, adjusted for the quality of opposing defenses. The formula for VALUE is: -2.2 * Pass Attempts + 3.7 * Completions + (Passing Yards / 5) + 11.3 * Passing TDs – 14.1 * Interceptions – 8 * Times Sacked – 1.1 * Rush Attempts + 0.6 * Rushing Yards + 15.9 * Rushing TDs.3

It's ok - I hear you get free ones with a case of blue light these days.

Yea, I dunno. I mean I hate the pats, but I do spend an awful lot of time wishing I was born in Boston, so I could be one of those obnoxious fans with every world championship.

How crazy is it that Trent Edwards is indisputably the best QB of that draft?

Unless something drastic happens, the only thing standing in the way of 16-0 for the Pats are the Chiefs.

Careful now, or they'll report you to Tucker Carlson.

Apparently we were in different classes when it came time to discuss punctuation. Thanks for reaffirming my suspicions. right.

Accurate description of everyone in this cringey af thread

Pretty different situations.

he had a very nice game. Hopefully he's just a late bloomer.

Completely agree, OP. As someone who has been notoriously down on Allen I thought he actually had a good first half- he was faced with a ton of adversity outside of his control, and the turnovers that occurred weren't really due to the poor decision making we've seen from him in the past. They could have happened to any quarterback. In short, he didn't struggle because of any of his known weaknesses and that was excellent to see. His short to intermediate game was spot on, he made quick reads and found the open targets. His second half was just great. Seeing him get the opportunity to go down and win the game and then doing it made me feel like something I hadn't seen a Bills QB do in 25 years, even if I had. He absolutely looked the part.
