Kalli posted:On the Seahawks: "What people don't understand is despite losing a lot of veterans, that team is still incredibly talented. I know also from speaking to people there that they feel getting rid of guys like Richard Sherman is addition by subtraction." I really don't understand how anyone can say this, with how little continuty there is between this year and last year's starters. Many of the new players will have so little experience, and many who are staying (ie the O line) were terrible last year and are banking on better coaching to improve. I suppose I should defer to a scout in terms of talent evaluation, but boy does this seem unlikely.

quote:On the Ravens: "I think Joe Flacco gets benched by midseason. Lamar Jackson is a future star in this league." I wish I could bet everything I have that this won't happen barring injury. Everyone, from the media to random fans attending open practices has said Lamar has promise but has some things he very clearly needs to work on to play in the NFL.

Ok so when's the last time a generational player on that level was traded so early in their career? Bonus points for that player not giving the team a reason to trade him other than wanting paid. ie: not a criminal or "locker room cancer" edit: I don't believe that report for a second, just curious

fsif posted:So assuming the Chargers never face an opponent choosing to wear white at home, they will wear their standard home uniform precisely three times this season. The Bucs only wear the red unis like 4 times a year. The first couple months when it's still hot in Florida they always make the opposing team wear the dark colors. This obviously has not helped them win a single game but they still do it.

Grittybeard posted:From a neutral perspective: Do you, right now, feel like the old Andrew Luck plays another NFL game? Last year, he was shelved for the season after throwing for about a week, and looked like he was terminally ill to boot. He has currently been throwing for months, and has completed about a week of training camp. He may be a little rusty, but I have full confidence that he does not miss a game due to his shoulder surgery. I legitimately think that he comes back as a top 10 QB as his floor. e: Intruder posted:Sorry Colts bros He was flirting with the possibility either this or last offseason. We have picked up a few guards to help deal with it. We are actually thin in the tackles, not the guards. Shadow225 fucked around with this message at 20:45 on Aug 1, 2018 |

Is Nick Foles back to being good or does he still have considerable holes in his game? Honestly I think the first QB injury or gently caress-up midseason gets a 2nd round pick. My bet is on Bucs
