NFL 2017

I think Romo is better than Prescott, even at his age. But I would have played Prescott too. Because most players don't actually develop on the bench. Rodgers was better than Favre. He didn't "learn the system". In my opinion.

Yea, didn't work for Prescott didn't work for Steve Young, did work for Brady but Bledsoe wasn't as good as Romo. Jerry Jones wanted the win and lost. In hind sight Jerry could have given tony a last chance at glory and it wouldn't have hurt the team's season.

After that red headed step child krappernick and his support by the league I started watching rugby.

The NFL was America's game. Average working joe's like me can be a Ram's fan for 40 years, have a crap team, get excited, get let down, stay faithful and for what? Some scum bag idiot that hates the USA?

I still love the game, my son plays QB. But I don't enjoy watching the NFL as much and probably won't unless they come out against the leftist losers at espn and elsewhere.

Brady didn't get better behind Bledsoe. But to his credit, he has gotten much better with age.

It's funny. When he was half anointed the next great one he hadn't earned it, but in his less successful years (in terms of rings) he actually matured into it.

I'm just saying.....


But I still give him credit for improving to elite, where as most called elite coming out of college are nothing of the sort.

Marshawn Lynch to the Raiders. Particulars for extras are not yet settled. This is a couple of days old.

The 49ers got a steal. So did Washington. And Tampa will be happy with Howard. But taking RBs in the first round? Really? :nono:

Last year Dallas demonstrated what a good running back can do for a team. And the NFL is made up of copy-cat teams.

I think Fournette is the real deal. Some say durability is a problem. How so? 50 carries in a game is not proof? He won't have to do it in the league. He is a thin Earl Campbell. Nobody wants to tackle him.

And now Cam Robinson will block for him, from day 1. That is how you do it.

They had a pretty darn good RB before him too. But it's still a passing league. If you have a rookie qb, a rb is going to carry a load, but where? Dallas was in a unique position. And even then it ended quickly enough. No, you can find talent to help the air attack in the later rounds at RB.

Best pick announcement goes to Drew Pearson. He abused the Philly crowd. Very nice.

They have it coming.

Michigan now has 10 players drafted. Crazy Jim Harbaugh will have them in the playoff soon. The problem for them is the Big Ten East which is now the toughest division in football. They were not Harbaugh's players, as the saying goes in college football. But he developed the talent.

 

[Jerry Shugart]

Wait and see. Dallas' draft will be rated as one of the best. And last year it was the best.

Willie McClay is a draft genius and the Boys will be lucky if he doesn't end up being the GM of another team soon.

Besides that, Drew "Mr. Clutch" Pearson abused many NFL teams during his career and he should be in the Hall of Fame.

His stats, including receptions and yards, are much better than those of Lynn Swann who was inducted.
