Shows how competitive this dude was

He wasnt about that whole probowl fluff

Eh.  I loved the way he played.  Never loved that play.  That’s me.  

Did you think the guys going after Cam were more competitive than Cam? Or were they just dudes wanting to get hits on and embarrass a dude....knowing Cam was at a disadvantage wasn’t going to get proper protection

Greg is going to be SO good when he finally retires and goes broadcast.  Not quite ready to say "the next John Madden", but he is going to be great.

Honestly part of John Madden’s greatness was when he got really old and started drawing random crap on the screen with his telestrator and forgetting guys names, and of course his love affair with Brett Favre

As long as I live I will never forget Madden during some Giants playoff game (SB maybe?) cutting to a shot of two large Gatorade coolers sitting next to a smaller one on a bench on the Giants sideline.

He draws circles around the two larger ones

”You got poppa Gatorade over here, and momma Gatorade over here. They get together...Boom!....

*at this point he draws a third circle around the smaller cooler.”

”...and make baby Gatorade.”

 

That was at least 20 years ago. To this day I don’t know what that was, but whatever it was football needs more of it.

i love the clickbait titles of the videos.   greg never said anything about being worried about cams future or that the team should stick with allen.  we sure could use his diplomacy skills to mod some of our discussions

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      By electro's horse · Posted

      I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
