Interesting draws:

Chelsea naturally gets Athletico Madrid.  Crazy.  Tough group that includes Roma as well.

Man United have a very favorable draw IMO.

Real Madrid has a very tough draw.  Group includes Tottenham and Dortmund.

Bayern and PSG drawn together as well.

Juventus and Barca also in the same group.

i'm sooooooooo shocked that United got the easiest group. who could have seen that coming, nobody in the whole world.

Being picky but I think Group G is actually the easier group.  Initially I thought Liverpool had a good chance but I'm not completely sold they can overtake Spartak and Sevilla.  I think they probably fight Sevilla for the top spot.  That will be interesting.  Group F won't be a cake walk for Man City either...but I think they'll top it in the end.

Almost feel bad for Spurs getting the group of death, Group B should be entertaining with Bayern and PSG, City have a manageable group, would say either group A or group E are the easiest.

at least they have all those new signings to help them. lmao.

It's collusion I tell ya!!!

FIFA and UEFA are both corrupted...  I think it's been proven multiple times.

That said, I have no clue if there is collusion or not but it's odd MU always gets weak teams in group stage.

Group H will be fun to watch for sure.  My dream Group of Death was Real/PSG/Tottenham/Leipzig but Real/Dortmund/Tottenham will be pretty damn good

Group E is the weakest to me, followed by Group A

Groups B and D are the easiest to pick you R16 teams, the question will be which of Bayer/PSG and Juve/Barca get the in the Group Winners pot.  Group C probably is next in this category with Chelsea/Atletico although perhaps Roma can keep it interesting, I do not see that possibility in B/D

If I were to pick the team most likely to top their group it would be City in Group F

I find Group G very interesting.  You have two teams outside the Big Four leagues that have experience past the group stage while the group's lone Big Four team (Leipzig) is brand new to the competition.

I think we can all agree that APOEL got screwed

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By woahfraze · Posted

      Why are you so fixated on yards? Even if yards were a good judge of QB play, his low yardage totals in some of those games were partly a function of drops (looking at you Xavier Leggette…).  I’m not advocating that Bryce was elite for the last half of last year, but the eye test certainly supported high level QB play for large stretches. He made a lot of high difficulty, put it on the money/drop in the bucket throws. He converted on 3rd and 4th down, kept drives moving, and put the team in position to win games. And it’s not on him that the defense blew it late after he led game tying drives, Leggette dropped a game winning TD, or Chuba fumbled the ball in OT. We could have finished the season close to .500 with wins against 3 playoff teams including KC and Philly during that stretch largely due to Bryce’s play.    Has he sustained this level of play long enough to deserve an higher ranking? No. But for judging based in that stretch alone, he would. But whether he can perform more consistently at that level or build on that, and thus earns a higher ranking, remains to be seen.

      Totally agree with you, if we had invested in drafting a corner or two I wouldn’t even ponder adding Ramsey. But, to be honest we legit added nobody to our corner room this offseason we have nobody worth developing. Even if Chau Smith Wade is better then what I think, he is the only guy we have invested draft capital into outside of our starters.

      Look at his snap counts, your telling me that his entire college and pro football career every coach he has had has misused him? No offense but I don’t think you understand the role of a slot corner. Mike Jackson is the literal definition of an outside zone corner, he would be totally inept as a slot corner. Ala why he has been an outside corner his entire career.
