Maybe we could trade a 4th for the Slant King 😄

Height and weight are measured against others at that position, so if a MLB is freakishly athletic, but only 5’10” and 220lbs, both will count against him and lower his relative athletic score.

I’m not pissed at Beasley for saying Aaron Rodgers is better than Josh Allen (still). It’s his opinion. And even if it is off-base, it isn’t a ludicrous take.

Yeah, I tend to agree. Still curious Beane locked him up with a top deal before seeing how he performed in a Dorsey offense, but let’s hope he becomes more of a focal point next season. That’s on Dorsey and Josh, less on Knox I think.

A seasoned, veteran play caller versus a first year one can’t be understated. Daboll had his faults too, many on this board wanted him gone, but I like that Dorsey and Allen have an entire year of tape to pore over. They’ll get it right, I fully believe that. It’s on McD and the defense to get their side corrected.

Your post had made it sound like the two QBs were simply interchangeable, “put this guy here and this one here…” and I didn’t think that was the case. Josh’s turnovers have to get cleaned up, like you said hopefully a better OL won’t have him feeling pressure where there’s none. He did leave clean pockets and made things tougher on himself as well. Another aspect of Josh’s game that must improve is field vision. I don’t know what happened this last season, but it seemed he regressed a bit. Players were open, but he wasn’t seeing things clearly. Does that have to do with the OL as well? Possibly. Allen is his own worst critic and I loved seeing his was still visibly distraught talking about the season after a few weeks had gone by. He knows what needs to be improved and hopefully takes his game to an even higher level next year.

That’s to say Allen is exactly on Mahomes level, which I don’t think he is. I do think Allen would’ve won a SB as a Chief two seasons ago when he was red hot in the playoffs and they had Hill and Kelce, but I don’t think he wins it this year with the group Mahomes was throwing to. Pat elevated those scrubs and took his game to an even higher level in the SB. Give Mahomes his credit.

I wonder how much Dawson Knox would’ve got in FA if he hadn’t been extended for $13M/yr. Does he get close to that amount? Or significantly less?

He’s a beast of a WR when targeted, catches everything. But unlike Gronk he isn’t nearly as physical. He should do better than their last two FA TE acquisitions as far as being an offensive threat.

I advocated for trading him when Lloyd was available at the Bills pick and grabbing him as a replacement and then getting a CB in the 2nd. A trade could’ve netted Elam or Pickens at the top of the 2nd, but I understand why it probably wasn’t a consideration given the expectations the team had. I’d be a more shrewd (cutthroat) GM though.

Bernard probably looked slower than he timed because he wasn’t fully sure what he was doing. If he has a firm grasp of the playbook and can play without thinking, I think you’d see that athleticism start to pop on the screen.

Chiefs are in a great position to run it back. Loads of draft picks, cap room, and rookies who received extensive playing time. Oh and not to mention the best QB in the game. The NFL is funny though, with all that going for them, luck is still a major factor and I bet they don’t repeat.

He needs to get lucky and land another blue chip talent in the draft. A real difference maker. He’s only selected one such player to date.

He’s always quick to blame others when he gets roasted too, looking around like “it wasn’t my fault!”

If Bears fans were unhappy with Roquan, I can’t wait to hear their complaints about Edmunds.

How long before we hear Bears fans complaining about Edmunds?

Oh yeah, because that’s applicable. Careful, don’t provide context or any perspective for the 6.70 time Tyreek ran. You’ll have the TBD trolls coming at you. Sad group some of them are.

Oh get a life 😂

With the perceived step back the defense will take losing Po and Tremaine, AFCE Champs should be even more of an uphill battle, but the offseason is long. Let’s see how the Bills upgrade.

I do 😄 Would never use the word “excellent” to describe Edmunds pass coverage ability and awareness. He was better this year than he has been, but his presence alone has never consistently stopped a good -> great QB from going anywhere he wants with the ball.

Probably also gave him a well deserved raise.

So what? I wasn’t comparing him to the dudes he ran against. I put his 6.70 time into context which others appreciated.

I don’t know who the guys are he’s racing against, but I’ll never forget what Marquis Goodwin said, who was a speed demon in his own right. He said that he always thought he was fast, but when he raced against legit track athletes he felt slow. He said as fast as he was, those guys are “on a whole nother level.” It’s scary the divide between guys like Marquis and Tyreek and guys like Usain and Asafah. And just for reference, Bolt’s split at 60 yards was a 6.32, which would’ve smoked Tyreek’s 6.70. Watch Christian Coleman’s 4.12 40 yard dash. 4.12 40 Yard Dash EDIT: Also for reference, Hill’s 6.7 60 yard dash would tie him for the 76th fastest guy in NCAA Division 1 track… this season. The fastest NCAA time this year is a 6.51, so he is at least in the neighborhood of collegiate fast, but not Olympic fast.

This should be a poll, but the answer is easily London Fletcher.

We had an exec become a GM and a OC become a HC in the same year and we get nada. (And yes, I know the reasons why, but still seems unfair)
