  1. Competition is well and good but John Ryan is going to be 38 years old. His career average is about .6 yards better than Schmidt's. Guess you need a camp body but I wouldn't view this as a serious competition.
  2. It's weird when you look this up because every site has a different number for Mahomes. Ourlads has him at 55 to both the left and right, Allen at 62 left and right. Other sites have Mahomes at 59mph, and yet another at 62.
  3. My bad, I started to think about Calais Campbell and the Arizona connection made me think of Peterson, total Brain Slip. Sill, wouldnt mind to have a guy like Yannick Ngakoue or A.J. Bouye. But guy like Bortles, Ramsey, Marrone, Darues, and to a lesser extent Fournette make it easy to dislike them. I also think they slip a bit this year, but we will see i guess.
  4. 100% yes. It starts with their quitter head coach. I know a lot of Bills fans have forgiven and moved on, but there isn't a person in the NFL I detest more than St. Doug. I think the way he left the team was cowardly, and furthermore I feel like the way he handled the questions about the situation last year during the lead up to the playoff game was gutless. There are a few members of the Jaguars organization who I really admire. Coughlin most notably, but I also think guys like Calais Campbell and Patrick Peterson are both players you'd love to have on your team, and not just for their play on the field.
  5. Brady is the GOAT, and I really don't think its close anymore. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but I've always felt like anyone who said differently was blinded by bias. Kelly was a good quarterback but probably is only in the conversation for the top 15 of all time at most.
  6. Felt the same way going into the 17' draft. Regardless of who his Uncle is, Kelly had a lot of good things going for him. Always felt he was a better prospect than guys like Peterman, Dobbs, Beathard, Kaaya etc. I even liked him more than Mahomes who I thought was an absolute tire fire mechanics wise. What hurt Kelly was the injuries on top of shady character history. Those two things together, plus the fact he was admittedly overweight heading into the draft may have shown a lack of discipline. With all that said, he seems to have turned a corner maturity wise. He was a speaker at Kelly's Camp this year and did an incredible job at being humble and admitting he was a good example of how not to be as a person and player. Wish him the best of luck as a player, but more than anything as a person because his story will inspire a lot of young guys.
  7. Both Anderson and Moore played in Daboll's offense in Cleveland and Miami respectively. On the short notice is be surprised if it wasn't one of them, depends on how much they like retirement so far, both are up in age.
  8. Been having a hard time understanding why they would cut O'Leary. Feel like his lack of reps has more to do with him being locked into a spot, and coaches wanting to see more of Croom, Thomas and Lee to determine who they want to keep as #3 and #4 if the roster calls for it. Sidenote: O'Leary is doing an autograph signing on September 11th, may be a little uncomfortable if he is cut.
  9. He was Travis Henry years old. Kidding, he was 21. No lie.
  10. Yep. Pretty much the only two vets worth signing out there.
  11. Is it Derek Anderson time in Buffalo?
  12. What I mean is when I watch Darnold I see a guy who dinks and dunks down the field. Rosen, and I didn't watch tonight, looked like the guy I saw in college, slow in the pocket, game manager. Neither seems to have the tools Allen does. Allen looks special. Now, it's two games into the preseason so who knows. Just happier than I thought I'd be with Allen.
  13. Heads up Baker really likes throwing it number 10 in the middle of the field.
  14. Sucks to see him hurt but you make more money from an injury settlement than you do being cut. Just saying.
  15. Baker is a good football player. Hope the next coach likes him enough after Tyrod does just enough to get Hue fired.
  16. Todd Haley looks like every dead civil war solider ever.
  17. I was on record as not wanting Allen. After watching the rookie Qbs so far no clue how he was still there at #7. I am glad he was. Hopefully I can say that 10 years from now. For what it's worth the TD throw made me laugh out loud. Just incredible.
  18. Tasker is fine. Not sure what people want from announcers.
  19. Linebackers are a big issue two games now. Better fix it before week 1.
  20. Peterman will look good as long as he is playing in the preseason and the defense is playing more zone. He is an intelligent quarterback who knows his reads and gets the ball out quickly. He also has a weak arm which makes it hard for him to challenge against man to man defenders. When the season starts and those windows he had to throw in get smaller he wont look quite as good. I think he is the perfect back up quarterback. I wish him the best of luck, but hope I dont have to watch him start more than 3 games ever in a season.
  21. Multiple guys with 4.3 and 4.4 speed will be cut from NFL teams before week 1, Foster is more than likely going to be one of them. Justin Gatlin was a 4.2 guy who ran in the Olympics but couldn't make an NFL roster. Foster has great speed. In my opinion, the play he gave up on cost him a job. He had a great spring because he played in the offense in college.
  22. His assertions are completely wrong as the editor's note shows. But, he is the best corner in football and is ahead of where both Sherman and Revis were at in that stage of their career. My hope is Josh gets to start and shuts him up. Until then, what can you really do. The guy is a great football player, but maybe not a Med Student.
  23. Pretty sure New Orleans gave it to them to trade up this year and get Marcus Davenport.
  24. What I dont understand is if he really beat his dog and did that stuff to his kid, how is she not complicit in it?
