NewEra Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 1 hour ago, ScottLaw said: Yea, we’ll see. It’s not that he’s bad or even average at this point in his career. He’s solid but this is a big year for him to take another step …Every other position is a position of strength for them…. And I don’t think he even needs to be a Mahomes or Allen for them to be AFC champs. Their roster is that good, IMO. I agree. And that’s why I’d trade him rather than pay him 40M plus. Partly due to his contract, they won’t be able to keep this level of talent up. And once his contract kicks in, they’ll be losing talent by the boatloads. Next years free agents: Wyatt Teller, Clowney, Chris Hubbard, Tak McKinley, Njoku, malik Jackson, Andrew Billings, Anthony Walker, Ronnie Harrison, rashard Higgin, MJ Stewart. 2024 FA- baker, Landry, bitonio, Conklin, tretter, Denzel ward, Kareem hunt, Troy hill, greedy Williams, Mack Wilson, sheldrick redwine. Dione takitaki. Other than Teller, this years FAs are mostly top of the line depth. The 24 class includes several of their top starters. I hope they extend Baker long term @40M per but I think this could be another Kirk cousins type situation where the team knows he’s a better QB than what they can likely acquire in the offseason, but not good enough to commit 100m gtd. They have a nice 2 year window set up, but the window might be too expensive to keep open for long. We don’t have that problem…..our QB is worth 50m+ per year and can carry a team to the super bowl. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albany,n.y. Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 During the Jets & Giants game the coaches each had 4th downs around the 40 yard line. Saleh went for it & even though they didn't make it he did the right thing considering it was preseason. Judge punted. I know it might be an overreaction, but at that point I wrote Judge off as a head coach. Who punts in preseason on 4th & short inside the other team's territory in pre season? I understand why the Jets did at the end because they were 4th & long and protecting the lead, but not early in the game where seeing your offense try to get a 1st down is more important than seeing what your punter can do. If you have no guts in preseason, you're too conservative to be a head coach in the NFL. The day the Giants fire Judge, in a year, two or 3, the reason was evident on 8/14/21 that he wasn't going to make it as the long term answer.

Rochesterfan Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 (edited) 1 hour ago, YoloinOhio said: This is a taunting penalty now?? Yep - because he did the first move right at a Panther. Stupid, but they decided that actions directed at opposing players was going to get called and they will be using the preseason to enforce. My guess is by late September- that would go uncalled, but for the next month - including weeks 1+2 of the regular season - any taunting calls will not surprise me. I got worried in our game with some of the ball spinning from the WRs - if it occurs in the general direction of the opposing team - they could call it. Insane for little acts, but they are trying to lessen middle of the field actions as they allow more end zone celebrations in the last few years.

It's usually called when refs hear specific derogatory remarks, I think. Like, remember when Diggs taunted the Pats CB on his way to a TD last year? He was clearly looking back at him and holding the ball out as he went into the ez. I was really word that would get called, but it didn't. I think if you action the ball towards a player or get really insulting with your words, then they throw it every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 My view on taunting is it should be a 5-yard “walk-back” penalty. Don’t lose a down or the play or anything. A 15-yarder is brutal. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time will tell the last 10 years 3 Qbs i would call elite have won super bowls mahomes ,brady ,russ. meanwhile non elite qbs eli manning, payton mannings corpse, joe flacco , wentz/ foles have won superbowls. just in the last 5 years goff, jimmy G and matt ryan have made it to the super bowl i think baker is better than those 3. the point is it is a team sport you can pay your elite QB like Aaron rodgers or drew brees and build a team around them or you can pay your non elite franchise QB like Eli manning and build a team around them.

Flacco played that postseason out of his mind. Only the Philly win falls outside of the “great QBs win SBs” argument — and Brady still almost won it. QB is everything in the NFL.

I think if you action the ball towards a player or get really insulting with your words, then they throw it every time. That was true in the past, but the NFL put the dreaded “Point of Emphasis” on taunting this off-season to reduce the amount of actions - just like that - directed at other teams players. They wanted any action that appeared directed at an opposing player - things like flexing, spiking a ball, spinning the ball, yelling, pounding the chest, etc. if done in the direction of an opposing player that could be interpreted as potentially derogatory or inflammatory in nature to be called. Players can celebrate, but they wanted them to do it away from the defenders. It is one of those calls that they go overboard in preseason - make a few calls week 1-3 or 4 and then let it slide back as long as the players don’t get to over the top.

Eli manning played 15 years and only had 30+ tds 3 times meanwhile he has had years when he has thrown 20, 25,27 Int's in a season with a career 60% completion percentage.

Lots of teams make the playoffs; not all have great QBs. The teams who win the SB typically get great QB play during the playoffs. In Peyton’s case, the Broncos had a tremendous defense but there is no doubt Peyton’s leadership as a HOF QB meant something. I haven’t scoured this thread but I’m guessing you’re a Browns fan since an earlier post mentioned Baker. I guess you’re saying he doesn’t need to be great for the Browns to win, and I’d agree with that proposition during the regular season because the Browns have a very good roster. In the playoffs, however, your QB needs to be better than average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
