I feel like few of these moves really moved the needle. Saquon and Henry go to better offenses but will lose TDs and even carries to the QB. Similar deal with Jacobs but it's Dillon and not a QB who will dampen the effect of a better O. Aaron Jones gets the opposite - what should be plenty of...
Regular-season records of active HCs when a current or future HOF QB doesn't start for them (minimum 90 such games coached):
Shanahan 114-64 .640
Reid (w/o Mahomes) 183-122-1 .600
Pederson 60-42-1 .587
Harbaugh (w/o Lamar) 102-79 .564
Vrabel 53-45 .541
Rivera 102-102 .500
Carroll (w/o Wilson)...
I think the Bears will move on, but it’s not like Fields is trash. He’s gotten better as a passer, a new staff might help his decision-making, and with a change in culture he could be a winner.
For the Bears, first you want to look at the AFC, but all I see there is the Raiders and Patriots...
In January he managed to crack the top-10 all time. He has a chance of making it to the top-5, maybe even top-4 this season.
Maybe the year after, he can catch Big Ben and Brady and then take the #1 spot.
He can do it!
Pretty simple - post your top-ten picks, forgetting team.
Scoring is (how far off your pick is) x (11 minus the number of the pick)
So your #1 pick is multiplied by ten - if you're off by 3 it counts 30 - and your #10 is multiplied by one - if you're off by 7 it counts 7.
Low score wins very...
My layman's view is that he is athletically gifted, business savvy, and very good at talking to people. I see a guy who is putting in a lot of effort off the football field to maximize his draft position. He killed it at the combine and interviews extremely well - I think he not only says the...
A lot has been made of this, so I thought I'd take a look.
Garoppolo's record is 31-14 with San Francisco over the past five years, and they're 8-28 without him. That's pretty convincing. Trey Lance went 1-1.
So who went 7-27?
CJ Beathard 2-10
Nick Mullens 5-11
Brian Hoyer 0-6
Garoppolo is...

This is a contest thread for selecting draft position.
Call the score for the Rams/Cards game - we'll take how far off a call is for each team's score and add them together. (No penalty for getting the wrong winner.)
My call: Rams 34, Cards 32 (so if it's actually Cards 40, Rams 28, I'd be off...
Before peeps retire for the season, I'd like to see who would be interested in a new kind of FF league to play in the off season to sharpen your skills.
This is not a league of Know-It-Alls, but rather a league where everyone knows it all. An Omniscience League.
In general it's the same as a...
Number of QB seasons with passer rating >100:
1971-1975: 1
1976-1980: 2
1981-1985: 2
1986-1990: 3
1991-1995: 5
1996-2000: 8
2001-2005: 9
2006-2010: 16
2011-2015: 25
2016-2020: 38
So far, 2021 has FOURTEEN QBs on track for a season with a rating over 100 - more than for 1971 to 1995 combined...
First, happy to see Hubris Goodell find out he's something less than omnipotent. Two games was ridiculously light; indefinite suspension was ridiculously heavy. Two penalties is illegitimate anyway. Maybe he thought they'd average out?
Second - in 2013 Rice played poorly both before and after...
Is a player on the exempt list barred from team facilities?
Or from attending team meetings?
Or from practicing?
No.
The only thing the policy says is:
That's the only explicit effect. You don't count against the 46-player limit for active players. (The 53-man limit is for the combined...
Some guys who were expected to be the top fantasy backs for their teams coming into this year:
Pats: Ridley
Dolphins: Moreno
Bills: Spiller
Jets: CJ1K
Browns: Tate
Ravens: Rice
Indy: TRich
Jaguars: Gerhart
Broncos: Ball
Oakland: MJD
Detroit: Bush
Vikes: AP
Panthers: DWill
Bucs...
And I don't even mean AP and Rice - although they're not helping.
I brought this up last year, but with the NFL now setting "almost a third" as the number of players who will develop Alzheimer's and other dementia, and develop them young, I wonder, say a couple of years from now when this...
So if, as AP has reported, the NFL had already seen the elevator video when they first gave Rice his penalty, and that can be proven, might Rice be un-banned? And having been released by the Ravens, could he sign with any team and serve the second game of his suspension and then play?
Not...
