No one cares when Herbert or Lamar was hurt. Yea it’s a little tongue and cheek but it’s also just funny. Obviously he’s hampered but I still simply don’t agree with your absolutism on him being #2 and the gap not being close

Exactly, they’d be saying see his play style requires him to be 100% healthy to be effective since he can’t throw like a traditional pocket passer.
For me its just that out of all, borruw is the only one who deserves and earned that #2 spot! After this season, it could very well be borrow vs allen for the #2 spot though. Dnt forgot about stafford, he is a bad situation right now but we all know what he can do

If Burrow didn’t get within 4 points of a Super Bowl win he’d also be getting the Justin Fields treatment.

It’s always he got to a super bowl and an AFCCG, it bugs me to no end knowing it was all made possible by Tyler Huntley’s all time decision. And some of the luck the year prior too. But alas, I know RMC about to come in and school me about hypotheticals versus objective realities

Seriously, I’m grateful for what he did on that final super bowl drive but this guy has always been supremely overrated in my book. Turnover machine
Lol.. he can get the job done though and thats all we can ask for.. he might throw 20 ints doing so but he got the job done lol

I noticed that when they win, it's questions like "how wary are you of the Ravens offense" or "is the Ravens offense meeting expectations?" Some shit like that.

Or the entire segment I'd about Joe burrows injury
He looked slow as shit in preseason. Hasn’t looked that way in his last 2 games fortunately

The F word
you got that right......all around
While they have high draft capital outside of Brown all of their linemen grade terribly. I wouldn’t have their OLIne in the top 20 with that setup. As we both know being drafted highly (Justin Fields) does not mean you will be better than someone drafted later (Brock Purdy). Having highly drafted busts is rarely how you build a good line. It’s not quite Giants bad but it can certainly see them from a glass bottom boat.
Even more than Burrow can’t push it, he also can’t move out of the pocket do now you have an immobile QB who can’t move or push the ball downfield who if they had let rest for a month, they would probably have the same record and yet be an actual threat. Suddenly I am less bothered by how cautious Harb is with injuries when you have organizations like the Bengals.
It’s not just me, it’s just about every coach, scout, and GM. Allen COULD be in that conversation if he could be more consistent, and Herbert if he was better in the 4th but Burrow (healthy) is the only non Mahomes QB you can say is great without qualifying it.
I have struggled to actually find more than 3 games I like this week which is a first since probably 2021.
I kinda regret that I have not fought with @rmcjacket23 much this week as that usually helps me iron out my good picks. Right now though outside of 3 games (Buffalo, Jets, Texans) I could be talked into every other game going either way, which is an odd feeling for Thursday.
