This only confirms my original stance on the matter: Veganism is perfectly fine for your average Joe blow trying to improve overall health and nutrition but detrimental to athletes in a physical sport like football.

Anyone on the team a vegan that we know of?

meh, i doubt they controlled for preexisting conditions. a lot of people go vegan because they're already sick/frail and have dietary limitations that demand it.

show me a study of professional athletes who are carefully taking supplements with an engineered diet where they're all breaking bones compared to their indestructible carnivorous peers and i'll pay attention, otherwise this is just fluff for troglodytes who use vegan as a punchline to a misspelled joke on the internets

I don't doubt this survey is valid for 95% of the population.

But pro athletes have other professionals working for them to make sure that every potential problem with their diet is addressed.  I can't see a very generalized study like that yielding any valuable information regarding pro athletes.

Anecdotal evidence is superior (sarcasm). This is why I can’t have a real discussion with half of you on here.

Have you tried eating meat? Maybe you wouldn’t be so angry and argumentative all the time.

If by “no one” you mean the tinderbox clan you roll with then I take that as a compliment.

      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.
