While I agree with everything he said, the problem continues to be that people are talking about Cam getting hit and focus on whether or not he had a concussion, and the focus should be on the pieces of poo that kept spearing him. 

So Sherman can (rightfully) bitch that the NFL didn't do enough to protect Cam, but can't sidestep the fact that had those players been suspended like they should have, the NFL players union would have fought tooth and nail to overturn it. 

Well said, Monsta.

I agree with pretty much everything. I do think the NFL is trying to help the players out by putting rules in place to limit the damage they take. Every year players and fans complain that they are putting in rules that make the game less competitive like eliminating kickoffs by moving the ball up, or you cant use your head to tackle, or rules against hitting defenseless receivers. 

The Nfl is also helping themselves too since they got sued for 750mil for head injuries. This way they can avoid getting sued and help the players long term health.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      How about just don't draft project players in the first round? How about especially when you have arguably the worst roster in the NFL(we did all those years in question)? You don't even have to dig into those player debates specifically. Just don't grasp at straws early in the draft.

      Week 6 PFF grades vs. DAL

      I think there were 9, and since I haven't took time to watch each of them on each play individually Its impossible for me to say, which I doubt you have either.   It's not a stat driven grading system; it's a per play grading system.  Tommy Tremble making a great block to spring Rico for that 10-yard run might actually score higher on that play then Ricos run. The actual run might not be anything special; it might be a run that pretty much every back in the league would have made. Here again, I would guess, if you look at every RB in the league, he is towards the top in rushing grade for the year which is what most of us are seeing.  Whether you call that a 90/80/70, 50/40/30, A/B/C, Gold/Green/Red star, it doesn't really matter it's how he ranks relative to everybody else at his position.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      By strato · Posted

      Well I will never knock a strong arm, in a vacuum, but it is a lot more than that to it.  Did we kill our roster building and our defense in particular to stick PJ out there?  No. We knew we sucked and he was really just a temporary thing too.  While with Bryce I see the up and down, mostly down, roller coaster on loop now in year three. It has been a Looooong time.    Back to strong arms, it is like having a powerful motor in a car. All the power in the world isn’t going to overcome a bad driver.   But at the same time, even a decent drive with a killer car will beat the best driver if you put him in a go kart   Exaggerating for effect, I know Bryce is not a go kart. Maybe closer to a 6 cylinder with not much displacement…..
