  1. I'd describe him as... A tall WR who moves better than a player his size should be able to, with an absurd catch radius and vice grips for hands. But my point in the other post was when people use the word "another" before "big bodied" is just so clear that they're expecting him to be some big plodding WR in the mold of a KB or something like that, which couldn't be further from his game. He was regularly used in the quick screen and slant game to get the ball into his hands and let him make defenders miss. He was 5th in the Big 12 in YAC this season, not something you'd usually see in one of those "big bodied WRs" in the way people talk about them.
  2. calling T-Mac "another big body receiver" is the clearest sign someone hasn't seen enough of his game to know what they're talking about.
  3. I'm surprised to see McVay in the unpopular list. He seems like a coach who is liked by his players, he's an elite offensive mind, and he's won a SB, why is he in that list?
  4. It was a jerk move by Coen to not let the Bucs know he was re-considering the Jags, but this is nothing like the McDaniels one. This is an OC telling a team he was going to stay as an OC and then change his mind and take a HC job. McDaniels was a team announcing him as their HC and then him changing his mind to stay as an OC. The only bad part is that he ghosted the Bucs, but it's nothing like taking a job as a HC and then changing your mind, that really screws that team over much more and is a way worse PR look.
  5. To who? Only way I can see he goes Top 8 is if someone BADLY wants him and trades up to take him there, as there aren't any places that make sense for him. Right off the bat, Titans, Patriots, Jets, Jags, Giants, and ourselves have starting RBs for next year so none of us are taking one in the Top 8. That just leaves the Browns and Raiders who could potentially take him, and even then, there are going to be a lot of FA RB options this year, not sure either will pass on the other top talent to take an RB instead of signing one.
  6. Kiper has been coasting on his name for at least a decade now. He was big back in the day, but he's really not that good anymore, he has tons of big misses on his evaluations these days, and it goes both ways, players he is high on often suck and players he's low on end up being stars. I think Frank Caliendo extended Kiper's usefulness for years, if not for him keeping Kiper relevant with his bit a number of years back, I think ESPN might have moved on from him by now.
  7. Just saw this a few minutes ago, literally shocking to make this move at this point and after other HC's have been hired, particularly Johnson who might have gone to the Jags had they made this move 2 weeks ago.
  8. Are there real rumblings or is it the same assumptions people have been making since they drafted JSN that they'd just end up trading DK to save money before he needs a new contract?
  9. This has absolutely nothing to do with our defensive struggles. At any given time, even a great team that is good at drafting has probably 5-7 of their own first round draft picks still on the roster. You need a lot more than good first round picks to build a good offense or defense, let alone a full team.
  10. I think they're more self aware than you think, it's literally the exact same thing about Jordan fans complaining about Lebron flopping or complaining to the refs, same things Jordan did himself (at least in complaining to refs and getting preferential treatment, I know flopping wasn't really a thing quite yet in his era). They see Mahomes and the Chiefs as a thread to Brady and the Patriots as the GOAT and GOAT Dynasty and don't want to lose that mantle, so they attack them because of it.
  11. and we've changed our HC every 1-2 years during that time frame too lol. Bottom line is GM jobs open up less than HC jobs and there are far more potential candidates for a GM job too. If a team is looking at you for theirs, you don't pass it up, you go for the job.
  12. I have a weird back and forth love-hate thing for Brady Grew up a big Michigan football fan, so of course I liked him before he was drafted. Then of course HATED him after they beat us and became "Brady" But then having Gronk be such a key player to their second set of SB's, my favorite non Panther as the 2 years he played at Arizona were my last 2 there so I got to watch his college career in person, I begrudgingly rooted for the Patriots and grew to appreciate his greatness. Now I hate him again for stealing Olsen's job on the #1 fox crew.
  13. The real question with Chinn was why we didn't trade him last year before the deadline. Evero wasn't playing him, there was a literal 0% chance he was going to re-sign here this year after not getting on the field the year before. Even getting a 7th round pick in return for a player we wouldn't be able to re-sign and we weren't playing, would have made it worth it. And that's coming from someone who was a big Chinn fan and upset that we weren't playing him, but once it was clear Evero didn't plan to use him, there was no point in not trading him as he had traded value.
  14. He's the assistant GM there though, he won't ever have any kind of legacy there. GM jobs are much tougher to get in the NFL than HC's, as it's rare for a GM to be fired but not the HC, while a lot of GM's end up being given multiple chances at hiring HC's. If you have a chance at a GM job, you go for it.
  15. Honestly, I've been rooting for them all year and would like to see them win the SB. Spent too much time hating on guys like Brady or Lebron just because they won a lot. As I've gotten older it's allowed me to appreciate being able to watch the legitimate generational talents and enjoy it instead of hate watching them. Sure these guys get calls that others don't, but that's been the case with all the all time greats in any sport, and it's not their fault either. If a player/team has done something to make me hate them, that's different, but I've got no qualms with Mahomes or the Chiefs, so I'd like to see them make history and get the 3 peat. It's the same reason I'm following and rooting on Wemby in his young career so far. He's that next true generational player and I'm going to enjoy watching his career unfold.
  16. There basically is these days. MVP is the best QB while Offensive Player has turned into the best non QB award, which is going to be the case again this year. Allen or Lamar will win MVP while I'd have to imagine Offensive Player is going to be Barkley or Chase. Barkely seems like he's the clear choice with going over 2k, but Chase winning the triple crown by such a wide margin is equally as impressive to me.
  17. Absolutely Lamar's stats gave him a better season, but take Lamar off that team and Henry, the other offensive weapons, and defense still have them competitive with an average QB. Take Allen off the Bills and replace him with that same average QB and they're not making the playoffs. Most Valuable Player, not who had the best season
  18. they're going to make Andrews walk back to Baltimore after today
  19. Campbell is a really good coach, but one who is going to end up having some rough years along the way as well. He's always going to need good coordinators as he's not really an X's and O's HC, which is rather rare, normally a HC is really good on one side of the ball. The more turnover they have year to year on the coaching staff, it's going to end up leading to some down years when he doesn't pick his assistants properly. But when he hits on his OC and DC in a season, then the positives of him being a HC are magnified and his team is going to have a real shot at contending.
  20. wow, that's a potential season ender right there
  21. It's also an INT if Hamlin didn't play that horribly
  22. Hmmmm, wonder if the snow/cold played any factor there on Lamar not being able to make the defender miss there like he usually does.
  23. She will be the halftime show at the first SB after Kelce retires, bank on it
  24. To be fair, Foles didn't get paid until after he won the SB lol
  25. Just went and looked it up, the Ravens also had more passing yards than the Bills this year. There really is no logical argument for the snow helping the Ravens more than the Bills. When one team has more passing yards and a speed/agility running QB than the team with the power running QB, a heavy snow game is clearly going to give the advantage to the Bills, no matter how much it could help Henry's power running game.
