  1. No way he should have thrown the slant to Thomas on first down. I had no clue what he was doing. Even if they dont get the 1st running the ball, they milk more of the clock and still kick the field goal. At the very least the Rams dont have time outs left.
  2. I think Rypien has a really good chance at becoming the best quarterback drafted in this year's class. He won't get drafted until the 4th or 5th round but feel like he could be a cousins type long term, or at least a nice backup.
  3. Because none of these guys stands out as a top ten quarterback prospect. In my eyes Haskins is the best of the bunch but the hype on him is tepid.
  4. This keeps coming up. Thought Mouse McNally taught Peters?
  5. Or maybe just stop having relations with every rando you find at a bar. May be a good idea to have an idea of someone's character before you go there.
  6. Can we crown McVay when he wins a playoff game? He has done a good job but at this point he is the exact coach as Matt Nagy.
  7. In that category my favorite player to this point would be Deebo Samuel from South Carolina.
  8. Starting to go through 3 games of each wideout. So far I've watched Harry, Harmon, Hollywood Brown, A.J. Brown, and Metcalf. So far I'd rank them Harry Harmon A.J. Brown Hollywood Brown Metcalf For me it's not close as to who the number one wide out is. Harry may not be incredibly fast but his ability to adjust to passes and high point the ball is tops here. He dominated games in ways no other guy I've watched so far has. He also does a great job on back shoulder throws, something Allen excels at, just saying.
  9. Guarantee the GM who text he was a 1st rounder has everything to gain from Kyler being in the draft, and I dont mean as his pick. A GM was also quoted in the article as saying he hadnt watch any tape on him because he was only considering baseball, now a few days later he watched tape and "he is a 1st round pick." This kid is going to get caught up in the offseason NFL games executives play and end up a Brad Smith type player in the NFL. I sure hope he can play special teams.
  10. Gase is a mediocre head coach who thinks he is Bill Belichick. He seriously needed to check his ego in Miami and didn't. He refused to use the talent he had based on whatever issue he had at any given point. I am sorry but to say Miami had no talent is ridiculous. Who here wouldn't have traded olines with them this year? Not sure what his personal issue was with Kenyan Drake but he is a talented back. He had both Drake and Damien Williams two seasons ago. He let Williams go, then decided to bring in gore rather than feature Drake who was younger and cheaper. That team had talent and he pissed it away or cut it because he has ego issues And not for nothing why didn't Denver run back to him? They could really use an offensive "mastermind"
  11. So he wasn't good enough to be the interim, but he was good enough to be the permanent? Not sure about this one.
  12. My worry is he ends up more like Kyle Shanahan than he does Sean McVay. I think its kind of a hot trend in the NFL to hire younger coaches with more of an emphasis on their schemes than on their experience as a coordinator. I think you could favorably compare Lafleur to guys like Anthony Lynn and Sean Payton, plenty of years working in football but not really a lot of experience as the leader of an offense. Going to be a wait and see. I just wonder if he is a strong enough personality to coach in Green Bay.
  13. Used Air BnB for a family vacation two years ago. We rented a beautiful farm house in Maine for a little over 1k for the entire week. I thought it was a great deal and the owner was incredibly communicative. I'd do it again.
  14. My company won't allow me to speak at conferences without them clearing it first which they never allow. A few years back I had articles published in a magazine and got a cease and desist call from our lawyers, mind you I never mentioned I was affiliated with anyone in the articles. Additionally they make me pay 40 dollars if I'd like to buy one of their golf shirts. It's not a big surprise that mega companies care very little for their employees and on the grand scale I think football players do very well.
  15. I dont mind Rex. However, his assertion that it was one play is myopic and probably part of the reason he isn't a better coach. Does the kick matter if Mack doesn't lose against Peters? It's a team game. The Bears lost as a team.
  16. Not sure about the separation bit, I think his speed is pretty evident on tape. One thing that did stand out to me in the three games I watched is the guy runs one route. Like a pass rusher who constantly uses speed to get around left tackles but overshoots the quarterback, Metcalf's bread and butter is to try and run around the outside of the cornerback and beat him on a go route, and its over and over again. It's clear he is immensely physically gifted, but I think he is going to be over drafted based on his gifts and have to learn a lot on the fly about being a wideout.
  17. Pretty sure he came out a month ago and said he would consider the TB job as well.
  18. It will be interesting to watch. I am not a Foles guy, throws way too many lame duck 50 50 balls. But Wentz didnt look like the same player this year.
  19. My real confusion here is why everyone here seems to think the only two generations in the last forty years are millenials and baby boomers. Have a feeling that points to the greater underlying problem. Also 1987 wasn't the random cut in date for being a millenial.
  20. 100% Correct. The Ravens are running an offense very similar to what Kentucky did this year, should tell you a lot about Lamar. Run, Run, Run, play fake the run throw to the Tight End for a small gain and hope he takes it up field.
  21. I agree. Brown is electric speed wise, but his hands, consistency, and size should all be considered major issues. The height doesn't bother me as much as the weight but his stature reminds me a lot of Roscoe Parrish.
  22. He has no value because the Steelers should force his hand after he acted like a total jerk. If they trade him they have to suffer the dead cap. If they don't trade him, and he keeps up the bs they can put him on the failed to report list. This is the OBJ crap from last year. It's good for the football news guys but it seems far from reality
  23. I think they bring in Devin Funchess as a less expensive alternative to Tyrell Williams.
  24. He should be the top quarterback in this years class with Herbert staying in school. The mechanics guys will be all over him, saw how well that argument worked with Rosen last year. He is the most gifted at the position and did a great job this year. People have him ranked in the #50s right now, but if I had to bet he will be the guy who rockets up the board in the next few months like he was some well kept secret. The thing that worries me is lack of experience, but someone has to be QB1.
