I uh, probably wouldn't lock up Mooney unless he wants to take a deal far below market value until he's like practicing from his injury at least.

Carlos is an all-pro at coming up with the absolute worst takes, it's frankly impressive. I'd love to see a top 25 list of his worst articles, just for the laughs.

I know I just said I don't take pre-training camp reports seriously but it is hard for me to not get excited about the fact that one of the most consistent reports out of OTAs/minicamp is that Moore looks great and Fields is connecting with him constantly

Also the trade was worth it just for Moore's answer in this video (starts at :29)

There is a rant about Rex Grossman in this podcast that is so so powerful, that it is like a religious experience.

Also an argument for J`Marcus Webb being the worst offensive tackle of all time.

If you hate some Bad Bears players, these podcasts have been amazing.

And I like how the washington commanders (football team) are the only team in the article to not get a hyperlink

e: final episode is them asking Dan Campbell what a successful season looks like and he just stares at the camera for 58 minutes before responding “grit”

I think a beat writer asked for the shittiest take on Jamo as a chat prompt and the first comment was "Did Carlos write this article?" Dimestore rear end Skip Bayless without any talent. I get it's hateclick farming but goddamn have a little respect for the craft. I'd say it's like he engineers the absolute worst take possible in a lab, but even that would be giving him too much credit as it shows at least a modicum of intelligence and professionalism towards something.

There is a subset of fans that love Carlos articles as they hate the team but follow it for some reason.

I think this is it... I think this is how it ends
Carlos is weird because sometimes he leave the hot take machine and write something deliberately supportive and non-provocative to the point you have to check the byline multiple times to confirm that he actually wrote it

I hope I'm not getting too hyped but I think Moore is really good. Not elite tier like Jefferson, Hill, etc, but in that second level. He put up really good numbers with just the most atrocious QBs.

I decided to go looking for this article to refresh myself on how bad it was, and somehow I found this spectacular piece of art, which feels like it was created in a lab by the nation's top scientists to give me a stroke.

I don't know if he wrote an article. I owned myself and watched the freep podcast with him and Dave, and Carlos isn't as hot takey on it, but he did say after year one Patricia calmed down and became a good guy to the press, so he liked him.

There’s not much evidence that Jordan Love can pass the ball either and Fields is a better runner so the math checks out to me.

I'm not a big Kirk fan. He did have more yards, TDs, and wins than any other NFCN QB last year. He's high floor, moderate ceiling. Like I said, he could easily be passed.

Kirk threw 2x as many picks too. I'd say Goff was the best NFCN QB last year, but I am totally biased.

Kirk had like a 100 more yards than Goff and the same amount of TDs with twice as many picks. This is extremely open and shut.

I'll take the QB who had more than twice as many game winning drives. Goff clearly had fewer interceptions because he was too busy being a coward loser than letting it rip and being a winner.
