I already knocked on wood, we good

Quote

Who is the best team in the league? Most responses usually involve the Cardinals. What did we see the last time they were on the field for a real football game? Arizona getting shellacked by Carolina. Now, it's fair to say the Panthers aren't the most talented team in the league. Yet, every team in the top five lugs some problems. Ron Rivera's biggest issue is that he will be playing kids in the secondary. Just remember two things: 1) CB Bene' Benwikere was hurt when this team made the Super Bowl, and 2) much of what Cam Newton accomplished last season was with the core of an 0-13 fantasy team. Kelvin Benjamin regresa.

Our offense is starting to look like an NBA team, but we're lacking in talent? AZ is not that talented, especially with grandpa Palmer stinking it up back there. Seattle is our main threat. They'll be there trying to knock us out of the playoffs.

I feel like the rest of the NFL media only remembers KB, and that we have a bunch of scrubs elsewhere...

Let's also remember that the NFL media really doesn't love the idea of a dominate NFC team.  Looking around at preseason Playoff Brackets (one of the most useless exercises in human history!), we're going to get there, but we'll never beat Green Bay, AZ or Seattle...  According to guys whose job it is to write about the NFL.

At least things have changed a bit: we're not an expected playoff team, just not the best team.  I guess everyone felt like we over achieved last season, and since we don't have the coolest story line, we're not good enough to make it.

Fug'em.  I can't wait for Thursday night!  Let's go and show'em we're ready for primetime again this year!

    • KP is not a straight up carbon copy but they look awful close to me.  T
    • You are right. At the same time I don’t think people are watching games going come on Bryce put it on the ground or sail it OB or whatever. They just have trouble seeing him turning his 3 or four or five top games of 2025 into the weekly standard outing. Which you expect for the kind of money he will ask for (speaking for myself anyway).  
    • In terms of comparing Pickett and Young's arm talent it's basically a push at best. Pickett is sitting at 6.2 yards per pass attempt for his career while Bryce sits at 6.0 Last season Bryce was 6.3 in yards per pass attempt. Only Justin Fields Spencer Rattler (both 6.2) Kyler Murray (6.0) 41 year old Joe Flacco (6.0) 44 year old Phillip Rivers (5.9) rookie Cam Ward (5.9) and Tyrod Taylor (5.8) had less pass yards per attempt than Bryce Young in his third season as a starter. Folks going around acting as if it is beyond the pale to say Pickett might have a better arm than Young are living in an alternate reality. You can choose to not believe your own eyes after 46 games but everyone else will acknowledge reality and move forward accordingly.
