Oh yeah they looked weak out there, question I have is if they looked like that and they traded for ISM is he worse than them (oh poo) or did they get it wrong and trade away a real playmaker? 

Good question. He was balling out in preseason though and could actually catch the ball. That's more than all of the WRs could say for KC last night.

For me, some of the strongest evidence that the NFL isn't rigged (besides the obvious) lies in the outcome of their 100th season.

Coming down the stretch, it looked like we were headed for a Steelers-49ers Super Bowl. Both teams were undefeated in previous Super Bowls, and you can imagine the kind of insane hype that matchup would have generated.

But it didn't happen...

The Chargers beat the Steelers in the AFC championship. So instead of a game for the ages, the historic season ended up being capped off by an embarrassing blowout and thoughts of what could have been.

No way I believe a rigged NFL would have passed up that opportunity.

I don’t think it’s rigged but I do belive they do stuff to try and manipulate storylines, influence outcomes of games etc the best they can without blatantly doing it. Sometimes tho teams are just too strong. 
 

I remember the KC panthers game like two days after the chiefs LB went to the stadium and blew his brains out …nfl was being called out for not cancelling the game, they didn’t throw a penalty on the chiefs the entire game with dogshit QB Brady Quinn and Romeo Crennel as coach and against a respectable panthers team led by cam. Chiefs of course won and nfl was able to portray the game as KC coming together to win in face of tragedy lol

The same offense we outscored with Sam Darnold at QB? The same offense that missed the playoffs in the NFC? Yeah im shaking in my boots from the scary Detroit Lions offense!

If the Lions were overrated and not that good last year, you are hurting your Wilks should have been HC case a little.  Beating Detroit the way he did was easily his best win.  You take that away and he was just running over a bunch of bottom tier teams/defenses.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
