Good, maybe the NFL will get rid of Goodell and the game can get back to being played how it should be. Violently, you know what you're signing up for when you want to play in the NFL no need to pussify the game more and more each year. Ray Lewis used to break guys down and kill them, break their fugging will power on the field and show them who the man was. Football needs to get back to that in order to increase interest. Football is a mean and nasty sport, dont like it for your kids? Let them play soccer.

The way a new league could actually succeed would be to embrace the reality that football is dangerous, make sure the players understand that and to play the game like it was before. Quit trying to make the sport "safer." Let the D actually hit players, keep the kickoff, no special rules to protect QBs, etc. Just completely ignore all the political stuff and focus on quality product on the field. And let extremely talented players play if they aren't in prison. People loved the LTs and the Irvins and Cris Carters... Who cares what they do off the field if they aren't in jail or prison keeping them from playing. Let us see their talent on the field.

I've been saying this forever with the NFL since they started changing poo, and when there was a rumor of a XFL coming back I really hoped they would let the old game back onto the field, fingers crossed

They could succeed as a kind of professional minor league to the NFL.  I'm sure somebody somewhere who was desperate for programming might shell out a few bucks.  They'd never compete with the NFL for talent though as nobody would play for 1/10th (or probably less) of what they can make in the NFL just to make a political statement, or whatever.

      He really impressed last night. Accurate. Lightning release and throws a ball that 100% passes the eye test. He drastically upped his draft stock showing out like he did on the biggest stage in college football.

      I am not at all up for under 6' myself. That list is small and unimpressive, I really can't think of anyone but Wilson in that category recently I would call good that I can think of. Murray could have made it work but he is incredibly dense IMO. That's just bad odds. Over 6'? Shouldn't be an issue by itself.  100% on the second part. That's what matters first and would dictate an exception.

      I’m pretty sure he isn’t referring to outliers. Lamar is the most athletic QB in history, Top 1% athleticism. I get his point, about the ideal QB being 6’3 or taller.  Kind of funny how billion dollar QB needy organizations refuse to look at QB’s they just don’t like. Org’s rather flounder than be flexible. Lamar, Shedur….etc  Both QB’s we could make the argument we could have had.  Shedur would have been a distraction to finally see if Bryce was worth the draft spot (and Bryce emphatically isn’t) but we would have a low capital investment for 2026. Allowing us to invest resources in the defense (Sonny Styles etc..)
