That high ankle sprain with 1 reception and 15 yards cost me my championship. Was a very nice prize pool. 

I had the first overall pick in my league and went with CMC over Taylor.  I was laughed out if the draft room.  A few months later CMC carried me to the fantasy title.  Meanwhile the guy with pick 2 and Taylor finished near the bottom of the league.

They were gifted the Patrick mahomes of their era in Peyton Manning and only managed what, 1 Superbowl?

That's Sean Payton with Drew Brees level bad. I think a below average franchise gets at least 2 Superbowls 

In all fairness the Manning led Colts had to deal with Tom Brady and the Pats during his tenure.  Imagine having one of the greatest QBs of all time only to watch him have to play the greatest QB of all time in the AFC playoffs every year.

I wouldn't say that I agree with Jim Irsay (ever) but Taylor strikes me as the kind of guy who's going to have a really strong season or two but also a very short shelf life due to his style of play.

I probably wouldn't trade for him.

Wasn't just that either.

That era in the AFC was absolutely gnarly.  You had prime Manning 1, Brady, Roethlisberger, and Rivers, along with the always good Ravens, and amazing Steelers defenses.

      Who do you despise more… LaMelo Ball or Bryce Young

      By Lurk21 · Posted

      Names I'd keep an eye on... Coby White,  Jalen Suggs, Amen Thompson  and Stephen Castle...  3 teams except Orlando has checked on Melo before and rumblings of sours getting rid of fox too. I'd think they think Melo and Wemby would make them nuclear out west.

      Well he somehow had 12 preseason carries for not playing. He also has 20 carries in the regular season, not three. He has actually played in about 7% of the offensive snaps for this regular season(33% of the special teams snaps). This isn't stuff you have to make up, these are very easily referenced statistics, man.

      It's not common for a RB to recover from two ACL tears in the same knee. It's fairly rare. You are correct that it isn't the career ender that it used to be but there is also the fact that we appear to have largely moved on with the additions of Dowdle and Etienne.  Dobbins is a very good example. He has basically missed 54% of his career regular season games since he came into the league in 2020. It will end up being 57% at the conclusion of this season. It's a big contributing factor to why he is on this third NFL team in 6 years. It's certainly possible that may be 4 by the beginning of next season. I would say there is very little chance that Brooks ever contributes in any meaningful way in Carolina. Possibly with another team but I am extremely skeptical of his future here because of those injuries and because of the roster.
