    Genuinely, what a performance. Fangio’s scheme magnificent, executed perfectly by this team. Sweat and Coop with particular shoutouts.

    Offensively, Jalen played incredibly well imo. Efficient, accurate, and created a running game that had been largely shut down on Saquon. O-Line perfect as usual, Maliata >

    Andy Reid worked out how to stop Saquon but forgot about Hurts' legs. That Kansas O line was absolutely destroyed, which was great to see, Mahomes will not be looking forward to playing against that defence again..

    And so it begins, the Eagles lose OC Kellen Moore to the New Orleans Saints who will be their new HC. This is what I dislike the most about the NFL, you get a team who could dominate the league for the next few years and the coaching team gets poached away by money.

    Hurts is now going to be on his 9th OC in 10 years lol.

    Anyway, I’m still riding the high. Go f*cking birds.

    That Geno Smith contract :laugh:

    I like him as a bridge QB while they decide what to do for a year, but that money is pretty ridiculous, no? Should’ve gone for Fields.

    "Poor Build, skinny, lacks great physical stature and strength. Gets knocked down easily."

    25 Years ago today the New England Patriots, with the 199th draft pick, select Tom Brady.

    Tennessee take Cam as the first pick, the Patriots start building their leaky OL and Deion's lad gets ignored in the first round shock..

    Is Shedeur Sanders the biggest slide of all time?

    I've got to be honest the limited I know about this lad I wouldn't touch him with a bargepole. Reminds me of Johnny Manziel.

    Seems that no one thinks Sanders is quite good enough to be a starter, but know that selecting him to play as a backup (particularly in the early rounds) would cause an unnecessary media circus that his talent and status wouldn’t warrant.

    Oh for christ’s sake

    Gone in Round 5

    Which is mad - not that I’ve ever seen him play but QB is notorious as a position teams tend to reach for because it’s an important position & one that tends to not have as much depth in the draft as other positions.

    Even the aforementioned Manziel went in round one & one draft analyst literally said he was an arrogant little prick.

    Absolutely bonkers that even the very QB needy teams wouldn’t even take a punt on him in round 3 & 4. Must be something more to it?

    Still think I would rather have a certified star player than 2 draft picks.

    Dallas are canny at this. Remember Hershel Walker going to Minnesota for all those picks in the 90s and then Dallas winning all those Superbowls with the following draft?

    Glad I fell out of love with the NFL a few years ago to be honest. Dallas just go round and round in circles and it will never change whilst the Jones's are the owners and general managers of the team.
