Yea shitty rules trying to favor false scores...the hollow inflation of scoring literally means nothing to me I mean  people don't tune in to see so many scores based on penalties.

The casual fan wants to see high flying high scoring football. They want to see Pac12 score in the NFL and those are the fans that ultimately drive viewership and revenue.

Do they though? If anything the NFL has a particularly higher level of non casual fans than a lot of other things not just sports either.

I mean the SEC is the most popular league in CFB by a longshot and people constantly poop on Pac12. What it seems to me is like a lot of other things about the NFL and that is they have no fugin clue.

I mean hell, we've got people on here who care more about the game being entertaining than they do about winning.

I think it's pretty dumb myself, but that's just how some people think.

Entertaining and high scoring are two different things.  A tough hard fought low scoring game can be more entertaining than a 49-35 shootout.

Then there shouldn't be any excuses for sam.

What does that have to do with Brady?  Brady is one of the best ever.   If that is our expectation for Sam D, then I think there is a good chance he will fail to meet our expectations.  

Brady is so good at getting the ball out fast and accurate, he makes offensive lines look better than they might otherwise look.  I ready that his average is 2.5 seconds. That is not to say he hasn't had good offensive lines, he has.  But I don't think they were quite as great as some make them out to be.  The reality is that a good qb makes a offensive line look better, and vice versa.

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
