Nobody gives a poo about gen x because they're the sandwich generation between boomers and millennials.  They're a smaller cohort.

Thanks for all the music where guys in flannel mumble about heroin over detuned guitars though, that was pretty cool.

I don't claim grunge. I identify more with the era mumbling about drugs with all the instruments and a synthesizer.

    • Well it's not exactly new information that you don't have to draft a QB in the top 5 to compete for a championship. But the poorly run organizations end up with the first three picks. Most of the QB's drafted there never stand a chance. And then you have teams like the Panthers led by the Tepper's that would rather make a big splash to serve their own egos and get talked about in the media for several weeks by trading all the way up than actually being intelligent and strategic and staying put. Worst outcome in that is if you miss you can try again without mortaging your future. But there is another layer in all this. The league is changing again. Even a guy like Darnold with all his physical tools every box checked in that area did very little in the Super Bowl. Seattle had a stout roster all around. Same thing with the Eagles when they blew out the Chiefs. Yet here we are stuck with the tiniest QB in the league.
    • Which highly drafted QBs have actually experienced having a short leash? Most of these guys get multiple years of starting to show what they have.
    • I actually think Cam Newton is directly to blame for the crazy short leash these QBs are given now.  He was so good so early in his career that he reset the standard for young QB play.  Before he showed up it wasn't uncommon for the learning curve to be a full two or three seasons.  The high draft pick guys that had short careers prior to him typically had injuries or off field issues.
