Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Watching the HOF game... Najee Harris looks slooooooow. He doesn't look very good to me.
 
#TeamNeither for me

I mean, Etienne had three college seasons with over 1500 all purpose yards, and two seasons where he rushed for over 1600 yards. No idea what's not to like about the kid. He's not going to be Nick Chubb, but he could be Alvin Kamara.
 
LOL. I usually like Kirk, but that press conference was embarrassing. Plexiglass, lol. I think he wanted to come across as pleasing both sides (hey, look, at least I'm social distancing!) and being diplomatic, but instead everyone saw through it, and it was just awkward. Either come out against the vax (which everyone suspects of him given his conservative nondenominational Christian background) or say you got it (which he likely didn't). His evasive "personal decision" comment has ramifications for his entire team, so why not just come out and be truthful about it? It's like he's afraid of backlash from either side. Not good leadership by any means. I'm a person of faith, and I don't hide my decision to have the shots. The denomination I go to has reasons for being pro-vax on the web site, and I'm not afraid of backlash from some fellow believers. But if Kirk is part of the Christian majority that's grown skeptical of vaccines in recent years, which everyone thinks he is, then he needs to own up to it, too. His "personal decision" affects the team and his game. This isn't a matter that can be separated and compartmentalized from his job.
 
Earned every bit of it.

Hell of a transformation from raw prospect to elite young superstar in this league.

I know it was only against second stringers, but Ballage looked significantly better to me. He looked like an NFL runningback. Najee looked way out of his element.
 
Unpopular take: I'm still not buying Josh Allen. Not as a superstar, franchise QB anyway. I think the Bills are going to end up regretting this deal. Not nearly to the level of the deals that Wentz or Goff got, but my gut tells me both he & the Bills peaked last season.

He and the team could still get better, but KC utterly owns them right now in a way that they don't with us.

I do think that we, Buff and (yuck) Rats will occasionally break through and win the AFC, the same way the Pats had many interruptions to their dynasty.

It’s just tough to see them taking a step back this season with how good their OL is.

He’s well protected, and much like Baker he’s returning a core unit he’s developed a pretty good connection with that has good rhythm and timing.

Doesn’t hurt getting four games against Miami, NYJ. They also get Houston, NO, Washington, Jacksonville, Indy and Atlanta out of conference.

May need to wait until the postseason to see just how real they are, but if Allen does fall back this year it likely won’t be because of their schedule strength.

The main question will be if his jump in throwing accuracy was a one year fluke or a trend.
