What is the deal with folks and why is there so many 🍆 riders each year for Allen? He’s having a decent year but by no means is it close to being a “MVP-level” type season. He’s definitely not even a top 5 qb this year. Also, is there any other qb in the league that has so many people that make excuses for when he doesn’t win?
I played (jc) football on turf and can say I absolutely hated it. Especially during the summer during two a days where the field added like 10-15 degrees in an area where temps would reach triple digits. An I play during a time where there wasn’t all these safety protocols and water breaks were more of a reward than mandatory.
Anyway, for me it just felt like playing on concrete with a rubbery carpet on top. Nothing was worst on the football field than a fat man hitting you and then you hitting concrete with a fat man landing on top of you… I can’t imagine what it must feel like to get hit by these monsters in the NFL that weigh 280-300#’s and can run a 4.5-4.8 40-yard dash.
I can’t believe the Chiefs actually traded that dude…
Is this the first year folks started watching football? Injuries are always going to be part of the game until the NFL decide to completely implement flag football rules. I think that’s why the league office is pushing its players to participate in the 2028 Olympics to see how the ratings are!
Any let’s look at the injuries. A Aron - 40yo qb playing on a shit field. What could go wrong? Cousins - 36yo qb playing on turf who takes a lot of sacks. D Jones - running qb who takes a ton of sacks on a chit field. Watson - another guy who takes a ton of sacks. Burrow - dude has been in the top 10 in getting sack every season he’s played. What amazes me is how Sam Howell is even able to walk with all the sacks he takes.
2 points - pass heavy league = QBs getting sacked more = getting hurt more. Also it’s not just sack, it’s all the hits where the qb just barely got rid of the ball. Also the league has shifted from pocket passers to read option/running qb’s. Again that just means more opportunities to hit the qb. I think eventually the league is going to shift back to emphasizing the rb’s and the run. NFL can change all the rules they want but it’s still at its core a violent sport.
I didn’t know the OC was in charge of special teams and had 12 men on the field after a time out… 🤷🏻♂️
Is it me but did the Broncos o-line not pick up Russ or the rest of them team only celebrated with the RB who caught the TD?
Someone explain to me how the Steelers get blown out at home by the Cardinals?
