Quote HistoryQuoted: Yet no one has disproven the stats I posted. Oh, wait. there was the one about a "guy with 400 yards rushing for the season" but somehow he failed to mention a name. Yet to see anyone "run circles around" me on football. I've been involved in football in one way or another since the early 1960s. Played post-secondary too. How bout you, sparky? Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Dude, what the fuq is your problem? Most of your posts are confrontational and or condescending starting with the first one. You do know people can have different opinions right? And the regulars will run circles around you with actual stats. Yet no one has disproven the stats I posted.

Quote HistoryQuoted: I agree whole heartedly. Actually, Sammy Baugh wasn't the first one to begin throwing the ball. Many say it was the GB Packers in the 1930s with Don Hutson & several different QB's over his career. Read here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_Hutson Hutson played at Bama in college, playing end. Who played the other end, one might wonder? Some kid from Moro Bottom, Arkansas named Paul Bryant. Wonder what ever happened to him? Given the changes in the game & players, the only way to compare players from different eras is "did they dominate their peers or not?" The "best pure passer of all time" should dominate his peers. He did not. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: From this discussion I will speak my opinion that I truly believe in the importance of a running game. Not the importance of a running back, but the running game in general. An o-line, scheme, and multiple backs with different strengths are very valuable to the success of a QB as well as a defense obviously. Marino had one year supported by a good running game if my memory is correct. John Elway didn't win a super bowl until he had a running game. True his RB was a big part of that, but that O-line was very good and any decent back would do well behind it. I agree whole heartedly. ...I also gathered from this discussion that the argument is the stats from a guy that was one of the first to make the forward pass a big part of the game led the league in passing stats more than others makes him a better passer than Marino? LOL...be far better than others of your time in an era where the forward pass wasn't as big a part of the game isn't really a sound argument in my opinion. Obviously, rules have changed, and athletes are better, but this current era has a heck of a lot of great passers which will make it very difficult to lead passing stats several years in a row as there is so much close competition at the QB position. Actually, Sammy Baugh wasn't the first one to begin throwing the ball. Many say it was the GB Packers in the 1930s with Don Hutson & several different QB's over his career.

Did you just seriously type that Dan Marino didn’t “dominate his peers”?  https://www.espn.com/classic/biography/s/Marino_Dan.html After a disappointing 1999 season (12 touchdown passes and 17 interceptions), Marino retired at 38. He owned 25 NFL records outright and shared five others. Among his marks: Leading the league in completions six times, throwing for at least 20 touchdown passes 13 times, throwing at least four touchdown passes in a game 21 times (six in 1984), having 13 400-yard passing games (peaking at 521) and having 13 3,000-yard passing seasons. |

Now do which QB had the most All Pro WR's during his tenure. I know Marino had 2-3, it seems like? I also question pure stats = "pure passer", which was the criteria, was it not? Is there a stat on arm strength? If so, please point it out. I was remarking on Jones's arm strength regarding the pure passer criteria, not who had better numbers. Nor was Jones a motley QB. Staubach & Stabler, that's not bad company, IMO. Is it yours too? The 1976 regular season was Jones's finest as a professional; he threw for 3,104 yards and a career-high 24 touchdowns, compiling a passer rating of 102.5. He was one of only three quarterbacks to achieve a 100+ passer rating during the entire decade of the 1970s, joining Dallas's Roger Staubach (1971) and Oakland's Ken Stabler (1976). Jones was honored by the Associated Press as 1976's NFL Most Valuable Player[7] and NFL Offensive Player of the Year, selected first-team All-Pro, and named to the Pro Bowl team. I guess Bill Belichick doesn't know squat either, like all those GM's who kept signing Fitzpatrick & Schaub? In 1990, Jones participated in the first NFL Quarterback Challenge. He finished first in the retiree category and third in the regular competition (The regular competition taking the top three finishers from the alumni competition and adding them to the regular field of current quarterbacks). Given his strong performance, Bobby Beathard, then the general manager of the Chargers, wanted Jones to come out of retirement, but Jones was 38 at the time and chose not to try a comeback. Longtime scout Ernie Accorsi is quoted as saying that if Bert Jones had played under different circumstances, he probably would have been the greatest player ever.

I don't want to put words in your mouth, I want YOU to say if it's the same or not, make it clear. Nor did I call foul, I pointed how GD childish it is. Lack of intellect, lack of facts always results in childish name calling. Just like liberals. How utterly LAME. So, go ahead & tell us all how you know more than Bill Belichick. I'm anxious to hear that particular presentation.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Derek Carr on his ending with the Raiders (being benched the last two weeks): "I was, for lack of a better term, I was very upset; I was mad. You spend nine years in a place, you have all the records and you can play at a high level and for something to get in the way, whether it was whatever reason, money related or whatever, injury related, I would have said I don't even want the money, just to play two more times in front of our fans. I didn't get that opportunity. So, it definitely lit a fire inside me to keep going." "If you win more games and you keep being productive, you stay there forever. But we didn't win enough games and that's the kind of stuff that happens with all the turnover of coaches; with all the different things. Eventually, the last guy in the room is usually going to be out at some point. And that's really what happened." "I've survived about 20 coaches and that's how it goes, and it is what it is." "Once they made my wife cry, that was pretty much over. Once they made her cry, that was out. But the love for my teammates is what probably would have made me do it. But the way it worked out and the timing of things, I was just ... it was time for me to move on. But who knows? You never know what will happen." "I have so many friends over there. I want them to succeed. I want Jimmy to be healthy. I want him to play great, because that helps Davante. It helps Maxx, Josh Jacobs. It helps all my friends, Kolton, Andre. I'm going to stop naming names because someone will get upset, but all my friends over there, I just want them to have success. That's all I was ever trying to do is give my best so they could win." "The thing that matters to me the most is the Saints win. I want my friends to have success and I don't want them to have hard times, but I still want the Saints to win a little more." I know Carr just murdered the Titans when he played against them. Might've had career days, I'm not sure. It was like the Pepsi commercial where the NFL QB goes to a college team in disguise & lights it up. |

Did you forget about Scott Mitchell? Marino led the nfl in passing yards 5 times. Brees passed him with 7. What does Mitchell have to do with anything? George had a million $$ arm & a five cent head. But he was in the league for many years, so he had something to keep him there, didn't he? Tell me, is Belichick digging my Homer Simpson grave too? You know, since he doesn't know shit from shinola about NFL QB's either?

Tom Pelissero, speaking with Rich Eisen, said that Dalvin Cook has "multiple offers" with around a half-dozen teams having expressed interest. Pelissero mentioned the Jets, Broncos, Patriots and Dolphins as possible landing spots.
Pelissero expects somebody to sign Cook to a "significant" contract. The four-time Pro Bowler was due to make $11 million in base salary in 2023 and count $14.1 million against the Vikings' cap. |

Steelers QB Kenny Pickett, after suffering two concussions last season, will switch to the new Vicis helmet specifically for quarterbacks, designed to lower the probability of concussions when having the back of the head strike the turf. It was the highest rated helmet during this off-season's helmet testing period.
"I showed up and it was in my locker. I told them, 'Yes, I will try it. Throw it in there.'" "They said that was the best one for quarterbacks, so I said, 'Fine, give it to me.'" This will be Pickett's third different helmet in the NFL. Used a Riddell SpeedFlex to start (same as college), then switched to the Riddell Axium, and now the Vicis Zero2 Matrix.  |

The four-time Pro Bowler was due to make $11 million in base salary in 2023 and count $14.1 million against the Vikings' cap. shit |

Quote HistoryQuoted: The game was much different in the 70's and prior. Receivers really became a bigger weapon mid 70's and on. The speed of the game is so much faster. It's a shame Oscar Robertson didn't have a 3 point shot line during his time in the nba. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Okay. Let’s see these incredible statistics that somehow show Namath had every bit the arm Marino had. Embarrass us. And I’m not sure how your claim that he never had an above average RB helps your case. Watching Joe Willie play was awesome. I wasn't a jets fan, but that guy was fun to watch. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Steelers QB Kenny Pickett, after suffering two concussions last season, will switch to the new Vicis helmet specifically for quarterbacks, designed to lower the probability of concussions when having the back of the head strike the turf. It was the highest rated helmet during this off-season's helmet testing period. "I showed up and it was in my locker. I told them, 'Yes, I will try it. Throw it in there.'" "They said that was the best one for quarterbacks, so I said, 'Fine, give it to me.'" This will be Pickett's third different helmet in the NFL. Used a Riddell SpeedFlex to start (same as college), then switched to the Riddell Axium, and now the Vicis Zero2 Matrix. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Fw67nVWXoAYKExR?format=jpg&name=small  Those two were close together. |

Another report from Pelissero. Says that Josh Jacobs could hold out into the season (beyond camp) amid ongoing contract negotiations and his continued refusal to sign his franchise tag.

The NFLPA has hired Lloyd Howell as the new Executive Director. He will replace DeMaurice Smith who has held the position since 2009.
There was some mystery to the move as reportedly the NFL players have been kept in the dark regarding the hiring process. There were some questions of whether the NFLPA Constitution even allowed the hire as the NFLPA did not provide a list of candidates or 30 days notice to the players. Lloyd Howell was most recently the CFO at Booz Allen Hamilton. He was not mentioned previously as a candidate for the ED position and there has been no statement on what his priorities will be with the union. |

Quote HistoryThe AFCCG will consist of two Wild Card teams while the NFCCG will be the 1/2 seed. In the AFC the Dolphins are coming out over the Bills, but will still only be the 4th seed (worst divisional winner). The Jaguars are going to have a better record than the Chiefs. The Bills will finally defeat the Chiefs in Arrowhead Stadium and they will follow it up with defeating the #1 seed Bengals in Cincinnati before then defeating the Ravens in Baltimore? Derek Carr is going to lead the Saints to the best record in the NFC in his first season with them. The NFC East will have 3 teams in the playoffs. The 49ers don't even know who their quarterback is going to be (Purdy/Lance/Darnold) but will be the 2 seed. Are we sure Ryan isn't doing drugs again? |
