Thoughts? Obviously a great player, but also seems very cool and nice off the field. Are comparisons to Tom Brady inevitable? :format(webp)/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/71242584/usa_today_18861346.0.jpg) |

When they aren't calling quick timing routes, he holds onto the ball way too long and takes too many sacks. Idk if he has an issue identifying the mike or is just trying to force the big play, but that won't be a sustainable way to play. Brady is the opposite: great feel in the pocket and knows when to quit on a play or go for the check down, and nobody is gonna warrant Brady comparisons until they win at least 2 rings.
Off the field, Burrow seems fine enough. I don't care to watch him talk, being a Ravens fan and all, but he seems like he'd be a cool teammate.

I'm surprised how measured the hype is after last season, but maybe everyone knows the D's of those other three teams in his division will batter the crap out of him for a few years and Joe Burrow will be Joe Burro before long. Or maybe everyone knows Josh Allen is the one to really get hyped over.  |

lol at mikediastavrone taking this seriously. It was obviously a gay thread. Okay, Jesse Helms. I just didn't think this thread was seriously about football. But if we're being serious, he's a one year wonder. That division (known for defense and general badassness) will be too tough for him. His arm talent isn't good enough to survive that long. The Ringer, a football analyst site, says his deep balls die in mid air Here's my QB rankings: (as of VERY Current 10/4/2022) 1. Rodgers 2. Allen 3. Brady 4. Mahomes 5. Jackson 6. Tua 7. Prescott 8. Hurts 9. Herbert (Not sure if he has any stans here, and I know I have him lower than most people, but he's not elevating the Chargers so not sure if he deserves any higher) 10. Wilson (could just be a slump, but until proven otherwise I'll say he's declining) |

Wilson (could just be a slump, but until proven otherwise I'll say he's declining) No way you actually have Rodgers as your current #1 I've demoted him. This is my most current. (10/18/2022) 1. Allen - Been the best in the last 10 or 11 games. Wondering when his streak cools down a bit. They're peaking too early. But it's hard to deny him currently. 2. Mahomes - The most consistent, for sure. 3. Brady - Not doing anything special this year, but I still like him the best in clutch/and near the end of the year. 4. Rodgers - Looking more like half man, half old man. But there's simply been no one else better. 5. Tua - Injured, and too small a sample size, but you can tell the Dolphins aren't worth a thing without him. 6. Prescott - Injured, and hasn't been great lately, but this current Dallas team won't require much elite QBing so he can just do enough to stay around this level will be sufficient. 7. Jackson - Past 3 games have left a stench (especially those last 2 drives against the Giants), but I think he'll be back eventually. 8. Smith - Best QB in the NFC West shockingly. No one fears him, but he can at least get Seattle above their expectations and I think most are surprised he's actually been better than 50 million man Kyler Murray at 1/50th the cost. 9. Hurts - I don't think he's the reason The Eagles are 6-0, but still he's moving the ship well. 10. Herbert - Michael Vick of his era. Putting up highlights and getting the media hyped while his team is still just above decent. That win last night off of a punt return fumble is nothing to praise. |

I learned this from watching Kay Adams on "Up and Adams" on Fanduel - it's on Youtube ffs guys  ...... Joaquim - hey pal, visit the music board and make some 2022 music recs if the mood hits you - the music mood - I mean not the Kay Adams mood The Bengals throw all the time now - they don't even try to run.... In Sunday's 35-17 win over the Atlanta Falcons, Burrow became the first player in NFL history to have five games of 400 or more passing yards in the first three years of his career, according to ESPN Stats & Information research. He was 34-of-42 passing for 481 yards and three touchdowns, with much of that damage coming in the first half. |

Beats Dolphins with Tua injured midway thru the game. 0-2 in his own division, probably lost the tiebreaker to the Ravens already. Great that he gets his stats in games nobody watches, but the 4 games of his I actually saw (Cowboys, Steelers, Ravens, Dolphins), a lot of people called him Carson Burrow and Joe Palmer. |

Oof. Lost to 3 backup quarterbacks (or eventual backups) in the first 8 games. How many times have we seen that? He's been downgraded from decent to below mediocre.

I'm not a huge fan of this guy or anything but they can't have him throwing 40 times a game, every game - beat up a bad Panthers team today - he was 22-28, 206 1 TD ........and Mixon scored 4 TD's - 3 rushing, 22 rushes for 153....Joe Burrow would look a lot better if this team had a coherent offensive strategy like this tbh

After his 5TD performance which benefited me greatly in one fantasy league and did me no harm in another because some genius left him on his bench, this is now a Joe Mixon thread Thoughts? Obviously a great player, although with some character concerns coming out of college but he seems to have grown as a person since then. Are comparisons to Barry Sanders inevitable?  |

Great player, great fun to watch .......it's a miracle they even got him tbh - I think he dropped all the way to the 2nd round iirc Reminds me a little of Kamara because you want to get him as many touches as possible or you would if the Bengals had an offensive vision ......who knows maybe it starts now  |

Namely beating women. Nothing as bad as what Kareem Hunt or Ray Rice did but of course this is a big no no I expect to see him keep getting this increased volume while Ja’Marr Chase is out. It’s clearly worked out for them albeit against a weak panthers team |

What the hell is PFF smoking? Bengals 7th? the eye bleeds. OMG. The NFC South consists of 3 of their wins lol. 0-3 in their division. Their offense looks drastically different playing division opponents and good teams compared to playing the NFC South. Keep in mind Tua was injured in the 2nd quarter when they beat the Dolphins. 49ers, Dolphins, Jets, Giants, Titans, Seahawks are all better. I'd say even the Patriots.  |

I'm a huge NFL nerd. By far my favorite sports league by a mile, and probably my favorite overall hobby.
Here's my revised rankings: (Nov 25, 2022)
1. Mahomes - There was a time when him and Allen were neck to neck. Now Mahomes is way out in front.
2. Tua - Is he the 2nd best QB in overall abilities? Probably not, but he's been playing the best. He has nearly a 10 point lead over the next highest guy in QB rating. Granted that receiving unit is a gold mine, but he's been taking advantage of it.
3. Allen - Not been the same Allen in the past 4 games. Still they went 2-2. Can't blame him for Buffalo's insane expectations since he's the one that created the expectations in the first place.
4. Prescott - Like Allen, he created those skyrocket expectations that the media assigned as Super Bowl or bust. But Cowboys are rolling, and he's one of the main reasons why. He's done everything that needs done in the regular season at this point, just needs playoff wins.
5. Jackson - Quietly manufacturing a huge payday. Baltimore plays everyone close. They could sneak up on the Chiefs or Bills and rob them of a Super Bowl appearance when everyone is on team KC or Buffalo.
6. Hurts - Maybe deserves higher, but I still need to see more from this newbie. My concern is like Jackson, running Quarterbacks rarely if ever win Super Bowls so they got a lot of history to overcome.
7. Brady - Can never count him out, but he's starting to lose tricks - and luck, like he usually gets. Tho that lucky charm of a bad division might get him undeservedly in the playoffs.
8. Smith - Doing really well, but I think San Francisco will annihilate him like in the first game. If the game ends up being competitive, I'll change a new tune.
9. Herbert - He's mostly a highlight reel. Too bad nobody cares about the Chargers, and I don't believe in praising a non-winning Quarterback when he's supported with plenty of talent on the team.
10. Rodgers - The hammer is really starting to come down on him, but I'm still rooting for him big time this Sunday night, need him to dethrone the Eagles.
