    @canefan Yep. They already have too many wins (4) to be in the Lawrence sweepstakes but there are a number of exciting QBs coming out this draft so yes I think they are better off tanking from now on.

    It's so hard to read QBs in the NFL. Goff and Jimmy G both played in the Superbowl in the last two years, and at times looked the winner. Nick Foles actually won. And yet all three look pretty horrible this year, while rookies like Herbert and Burrow seem much more assured with far worse teams.

    Both were system QBs beaten by superior QBs. Jimmy is not required to do much in that offence, however when he is called upon to throw far down the field he is often found wanting. Imagine what a QB like Rogers could do with that O line. Get a top prospect if available and grab someone in like Fitzpatrick to run the cutter while the new kid is eased in

    @canefan bingo. McVay and Shanahan are elite playcallers that make Goff and Jimmy look better than they are.

    SNF is a big game, Saints v Tampa

    Tampa have had 3 possessions, 9 plays, 18 total yards. NO have more than 140 and a TD already.

    that explains the very weird box score of 26 completions for only 216 yards.

    Tough season to predict from here, so many close divisions

    Things we know:
    The NFC East is dogshit.
    The Steelers will win their Division

    Things that are very likely
    The Chiefs will win theirs
    The Patriots won't make the post season.

    I feel like pretty much everything else is up for grabs

    that said, he rescued 3rd and long many times today.

    Good fun game, I enjoyed it

    also, the two interceptions he threw yesterday were abysmal. No receiver anywhere near, and went straight to the Rams defenders.

    Denver play the Saints with Lindsay out with a bad knee, and a bunch of guys tipped out for COVID, including the QB and the backup QB

    And predictably get hosed

    You reckon Tampa are happy with their QB trade?
