hurts was in the MVP convo last year till he got hurt as well.

He got a whole 1 first place vote. Real impressive MVP convo stat line. 3,701yd - 22td - 6int

The guy is surrounded by some of the best talent in the NFL. Played one of easiest strength of schedules in recent history. Played Daniel Jones and Broc Purdy to get to the SB. Then lost to Mahomes who had a high ankle sprain.

I predict in 2038, Jordan Love will be traded to the Jets.

It's all about the DRAFT tonight!!!

Hoping for a team to call up the Giants for Barks in exchange for a 3rd rounder. Giants can get a RB in the draft as who knows how long he could (potentially) hold out.

Very true.

I just hope Dallas doesn't get desperate and trade up for BIJAN.

He's fantastic but by now they should have learned their lesson with picking a RB that high.

he missed a couple games...

do you not follow the nfl during season? he was the betting favorite to win MVP through week 15.

4400ish total yards and 35 total tds in 15 games.

*BREAKING*

WOW.....

And I seriously doubt they will even win their Division!

^^^ Let’s see if he and Odell can stay on the field all season long.

Eagles defense just got better with the selection of Jalen Carter out of Georgia. Never thought he would drop that far.

Welcome to Forbes island! Now we get TE or OL in round 2. Hoping for D. Washington, Musgrave, O’Cyrus, JMS, etc. wild card also be thrilled w/ Simpson at LB. Woo!!

But who is your QB?

Not Will Levis thank god. Sam just beat Cowboys in his 1st start and we left points on the board. He came out of NC early but had 1st rd grade. Dual threat and absolute cannon. Eric B should only help him get better but we’ll see.

Kinda shocked that the Redskins didn’t draft a QB. Can’t expect them to be a factor in the upcoming season as the Giants/Eagles/Cowboys are clearly better on both sides of the ball.

Exactly, good luck with your Commodors in the basement yet again.

Don't think so. Only the Eagles I put above the 3 right now.

feeling pretty good about the Cowboys draft.

Mazi is a monster and will be great against the rush and based on tape, looks like he can develop in to a good pass rusher. Especially since teams wont be able to double/triple team him like they did at Michigan

Schoonmaker seems like he has the athleticism and hands to be a good TE. And hes a solid blocker and will work well in rotation with Hendershot and Ferguson

Overshawn was great at Texas and with our current LB depth, he will get to sit behind and play ST as those guys age out/dont get re-signed and should be a starter soon.

Only other guy i really know anything about is Deuce Vaughan. If he was just a little bit bigger, he woulda been a 1st round HB. As is, pretty small, but that didnt seem to affect him at KState and im excited to see how he gets used.

How does everyone not see its a huge d!ck move to flex games between Thursday & Sunday? Used to be a diehard NFL watcher, not so much anymore, kinda tired of most sports in general as it's such a greed fest and most athletes are entitled jerks. But the NFL used to care highly about the fans, but now they think those attending the games are too small portion of the pie to matter. Just another example of billionaires out of touch with reality.

Exactly right, the league doesn't care about fans attending games, its about TV revenue. and more of the "big" games are gonna be streamed or otherwise made to be paid for when for all these years they've been on "free" network TV.
I don't think there should even BE Thursday night games, way too hard on player's bodies. NFL pretends to care about player's health and fan's concerns but really the only thing that matters is $$$$$.

It makes sense. At most, 100k fans attend a game in person but millions watch the Thursday night game. As someone who watches football, i prefer to not watch 2 trash teams play thursday.

and at least they are giving at least a months notice if they are going to flex it. And there are really only a couple games that will probably get flexxed.

Week 13: Seattle @ Dallas - Not getting flexxed. Cowboys one of the biggest markets
Week 14: New England @ Pittsburgh - Maybe, but NE and Pit both have big markets
Week 15: Los Angeles Chargers @ Las Vegas - Division battle, most likely both are jockeying for playoffs, probably not getting flexxed
Week 16: New Orleans @ Los Angeles Rams - Good chance of getting flexxed.
Week 17: New York Jets @ Cleveland - Rodgers and the Jets probably battling for division, Cleveland and Watson same thing, maybe but would be a game between 2 good QBs and probably 2 good teams. Unless theres a divisional rivalry game with playoff implications, i dont see it.

Fvck Dan Snyder!

I still remember when he took over the team, thinking: "Local guy, very rich, big fan. What could go wrong?"

Turns out, A LOT. A lot could go wrong, and did.

Here's hoping to a bit more success on the field, and a little less drama off it.
