Good thing the offseason is almost over

I think we have reached the time to go to our early 90's look for a throwback one week.

It's also easier for the QB to make reads on outside routes with so much less congestion and open space.

I was a pretty big Jordan fan growing up and now that I have gotten older I realized Jordan is a SOB in just about every way possible. Certainly worse than Tom Brady. So it really doesn't make sense to hate on Tom as much as I have. Clearly it's because I'm a Bills fan. Ultimately it's code for respect. I would nothing anybody else. The fact that I can feel anything for Brady shows respect.

I’m sure most people recognized it. He’s said that quote hundreds of times

Penix Pulls

I found this funny but not humorous

For a second the first two threads on the wall were "Penix pulls out" followed by "Steel raised"

I would say if he belongs in this conversation he would have tp join Brady/Manning with several.

Couldn't agree more about the stats.

I'm playing the long game, 20 years and 5,000 posts of trolling 😂

I can never satisfy my craving for defensive ends. I even added some high motor! 😂

Can he get to 40? I mean that’s not even that abnormal at this point.

Funny you say that because it will be his 7th year next season and it was Brady's 7th year when they went undefeated in the regular season.

Ya, Henry is about as close as we can get to that type nowadays.

Nobody is a give it and go type back anymore, but some guys would still do just fine. Among the bruisers he's the most likely to be in that category. Tackling that much condensed muscle would hurt regardless of the era.

Curious what you have seen in the last 6 that doesn't tell you it can't go on for another 10? He has played in every conference championship since 2018 starting as a 2nd year player. We haven't seen that before. We sort of saw it with one other player. Plenty of threads you don't need to be compelled to go into them all Josh is way above Rivers. Big Ben, Peyton, and Brees comparisons are more accurate in the scheme of this conversation.

If you started watching football in the 90's or earlier you got to witness the entirety of Brady with some decent context to boot. It felt like Brady was inevitable . If he had the ball late it wasn't if he would score but when. Leads didn't matter. He practically erased other HOF level QB's of that generation. Sure Ben, Peyton, and Drew eventually got one, which is good lesson for us because it really felt unlikely for a period of time. I think most of us feel like that level of domination just isn't possible again. Like what we saw was a once in lifetime thing. Bruce Smiths sack record, Barry Sanders doing Barry things. You just don't think you will see some things again because until that point all those years taught you they shouldn't happen in the first place. So when we see a guy like Mahomes have this type of success we sort of think, ok, ya, he's good but do it again. Then the next year you say the same thing. Then the next and the next and eventually you forget that you have been saying do it again for half a decade. Maybe what we are seeing is in fact another version of what all of us hoped we would never see again. Which as history has taught us, does not mean we will not get one or perhaps more, but it does mean it will be a very difficult path. Brady played in an era where stats were just not as easy to pile up as Mahomes so when you look at the data keep that in context. After 6 years in the league...... Mahomes = 4 AFC Championships, 2 Super Bowls, 1 pending Brady = 3 AFC championships, 3 Super Bowls The stats after 6 seasons aren't really close. I included Allen's most recent 5 years and extrapolated it into 6 years for comparisons sake. We sit here every offseason trying to solve why we didn't get to the Super Bowl like it's a physics question. Nobody would think that way during the Brady era. You knew out of the gate you weren't the favorite. You never were going to be the favorite and it would take something special to overcome it. We don't think that way because we keep saying ya, sure, do it again. Over and over it goes.

He did a pretty good job with this. Free and a great blend of video. Worth the watch.

I was going for realism. I also decided on a trade to round it out with some more depth. I think I nailed it to be honest.

So lets say the league wanted the Bills in the Super Bowl. On our last drive Allen fumbled. We recovered and went onto to miss the field goal. What if we didn't recover the fumble? Are you saying when the league wants a team to win it would never get close enough where at the end something like I described could determine the outcome?

So excited the worst thread of the year was bumped
