  1. Talking head football analysis is dead now that there are a million blogs out there and you can all test projections yourself for the low monthly price of $29.99 at myfantasydumps.com or whatever. Peter King is still more acceptable than the 49 year old Yahoo Fantasy manboys like Pianowski or whoever that are just more boring versions of Peter King. I personally hope he shakes and talks about whatever dumb coffee he prefers until he feels he's done.

  2. Honestly interested to see if Feliciano is as bad as many think. I haven't been paying that close of attention so am legitimately interested, great time to see some O-line depth against an awful Texans team. Definitely rest Poyer with the Chiefs looming.

  3. They're a good QB away from being relevant. It's all QB and Tua isn't it, don't kid yourselves. But if they do win the Deshaun Watson sweepstakes the tone here changes overnight, guaranteed. Waddle, Parker, Gesicki just need somebody who can throw and that defense shouldn't be as awful as they looked during their meltdown against us in Week 2. Definitely better than the Jets. A semi-decent QB away from being better than the Pats.

  4. I know it's very easy to hate on Rodgers right now and I myself laugh at his manbun, but the guy has put up with the Packers for going on 17 seasons which is pretty incredible, so I think the whole diva thing is a bit overblown. Guy just wants as many rings as possible considering his age and how long he's bled for that team. I haven't even spent 17 years in the city I met my wife and had my child in. Nearly two decades is a crazy commitment by any standard in sports.

     

    So yeah I could see him doing something similar at some point, but maybe after year 14 or 15 with no additional rings things start to get a little annoying, ya know. Isn't he Josh's idol by the way? I'm off the Rodgers hate wagon now that he's cleansed himself from that week 1 dud.

  5. Man I was kind of hoping for old elevator music Coldplay for the 8th time. Great music for scraping paint off your walls.

     

    Meh, they're all okay for the most part except Eminem who hasn't aged gracefully at all in my opinion. He's just too corny, a 90's relic like Limp Bizkit and Jncos. I can't take him seriously, especially when he squints his eyes and makes his please take me seriously face.

  6. I've seen the Matt Breida chunk plays for years but was surprised to learn recently how infrequently he hits the end zone - only twice going back to his last season in SF, zero TDs while in Miami. Barring injury (please no) I'm not sure how likely it is that he'll see it again. Seems he's primarily a special teamer now with emergency RB capabilities. I could honestly see Gilliam getting one before him. Some 2-yard dink from Josh for example.

  7. I agree that Moss has been the better back, but I'm not sure I'd change anything. Maybe I'd like to see them go with the hot hand a bit more which would likely be Moss, but we're 5th in the NFL in rushing right now so I think things are working. I also prefer our approach to Minnesota's, who is #4 in rushing, and just runs Dalvin Cook into the ground every year.

  8. Good thread, I agree he looks rough. He's got some weapons, they've definitely been trying with the draft and FA's but it looks like Mims might also be a bust. Elijah Moore is already hurt and I remember many on here interested in him. They keep drafting backs but none of them really do anything. Seems like they've pretty much given up on Perine already. It's a poorly managed team perhaps but Wilson still looks awful.

     

    And hey if you're looking for a cherry for that Zach Wilson might be a bust sundae, Mac Jones also looks bad. And if you want another cherry, there's Tua. It's nice being in the AFC East right now.

    Trolls with sketch names I have never seen on TBD were out in full force after one loss and did not want to take any time to dig into the whys. Just a lot of he sucks, they suck, season over nonsense.

     

     


    Oh there are definitely a few with lengthy post histories and non-sketch names that almost seem incentivized to be constant pessimists every single week. They were at it again early in the first half...

     

    got to love domination like this that just shuts all of them up.

    The thing that was great about him his whole career in college had been his work ethic and ability to improve, this is just his next progression.  I’ll admit, the jump he’s made this year is really surprising in comparison to the player we saw last year.  He’s actually an impact player out there now.  He’s not quite “there” yet, but he’s a top of the rotation player.  He’s making the choice to let the Vets walk next year really easy.


    Just checked a few of his scouting reports and intelligence was also mentioned twice. Seems those scouts were spot on. Somebody else mentioned it, apologies can’t find, but it seems he also learned a few new things that he’s executing this year. In that case those blue chip comparisons may not be too far off.

  11. Heck of a career, Shady. All the best. When he was at his peak in Philly he was frankly better than anybody currently in the league. Maybe if Saquon can get healthy and return to form he could capture the same magic. Maybe Kamara but he’s currently not as consistently awesome week to week.

     

    I think moving forward Shady will replace Fred Taylor and Corey Dillon as the RB forever on the HOF brink. He won’t and probably shouldn’t get in - Edge is the new RB baseline and he had better numbers than Shady - but heck maybe somebody gives him a call this year and he decides to come back and finds a way to another 500 yards and raises his chances. Cheers Shady.

    Going to a strip club with some thugs who get into a fight with off duty cops shows pretty good judgment.

    Every year with Carr and the Raiders and they always fade.. Maybe this is the year though. 

     

    Truth but I think a lot of this year's hype is due to the real Waller emergence. He's special. I've personally also always been a Kenyan Drake fan and now he's just hanging out catching 5 passes a game for them as well. Look like they hit on that Maxx Crosby kid. They could stir some things up 

     

    Hunter Renfroe doesn't suck. Ruggs is contributing. Man for all of the early heat if they pan out could this mean Mayock knows what he's doing?

  13. I don't share the same level of concern because 35-0 is historical. People want domination and this was domination, but not the right kind of domination? Ok I guess, I'll listen to the Josh Allen concerns.

     

    However, I'm much more blown away by the QB pressure today. This is what we wanted this year. We got it. So now when Josh puts it together, what are we going to do? This will be a fun game to point back to when Josh lights it up for 400 in week 10 or whatever. This defense looks insane.

     

    Also, sure seems like we do have a running game as long as they're allowed to play. Singletary/Moss looked great today.

  14. Sure looks like Derek Carr is actually very good when it comes to the Raiders talk as well. Easily good enough to keep them hanging around all year. And Darren Waller will put up Kelce like numbers this year again, he's a freak. I think the Raiders are legit as annoying as they are.

    #2 WR is a legitimate weakness for the Chiefs this year. You can double Hill and dare their other WRs to beat you. It's like the Ravens conceded plays to Kelce just to make sure Hill didn't beat them over the top.

     

    Yeah good point. Didn't they only lose Sammy though or am I forgetting somebody else from last year? They've always kind of just ran with a mixture of 4s and 5s - Hardman, Pringle, Demarcus Robinson - guys who can't carry the load but are good and varied enough to keep you honest. I completely missed that they picked up Jerick McKinnon for example. They always have a pile of guys after Hill and Kelce that can break a game open it seems.

     

    Perhaps that may not work as well this season. I'm so sick of the Chiefs worship personally so I'm all for people figuring them out.
