Man...the pic they put together for this article is in very poor taste.

The company has a Fantasy Foozball League. I let the computer pick my team (and will normally let it pick my lineup every week. I don’t really give a rats ass about Fantasy Football). The computer picked Jaylen Hurts and Joe Burrow for my QBs and wants to start Jaylen this week. I might actually override it and start Burrow. He’s going to want to prove something with that contract.

Tom Brady had a long and illustrious career because of a few things:
- He landed in an offense suited to his strengths. Quick reads, timing patterns and the ability to get the ball out fast. When Tom planted his back foot, the ball was coming out.
No. He landed in an offense where he was fed the defensive coverages, blitzes, and open zone areas before each and every play.
The difference from worst to first in QB is not that large, and the very biggest difference is how well the QB learns to read the defenses, coverages, and blitzes. That’s the 2nd year jump that everyone looks for in a QB. It’s all about what they see and understand before the ball is snapped. That’s why the the commissioner destroyed the New England tapes and gave them an unprecedented penalty over spygate. It’s also why they were on such thin ice with the commissioner over the last 2 decades. If those tapes were made public they would have destroyed the public confidence in the league for the entire 2000s…

Part of the league is rigged, we know that. Watch what Goodell does to Denver this year. One of two things will happen:
A. Goodell hates Payton so much, he shafts the Broncos.
B. Goodall wants the Walton money so much, a lot of calls go Denver's way. -
Here’s the absurdity… In 2018, Matt Ryan became the highest paid QB in the league at an average of $30 Million per year… 5 years later there are now 4 averaging $50 Million per year, and 8 more over $40 Million. 14 others are on their rookie contracts but will all likely fall into that range over the next 4 years… Talk about wage inflation…

I don’t get the Maholmes love. He’s thrown more incompletions and interception than any other quarterback this season.

Yeah, if Detroit had lost that game, this would have received A LOT more attention…
