Wilson was cheap. So was Fields. Pickett saw the writing on the wall. mtmuley

I wish the Vikes had scored the Fields deal instead of Darnold.

I hope he balls out and shows people wrong. mtmuley

Me too. Definitely, me too. I'd love to be wrong.

I think he just needs good coaching. He needs someone to use him the way he can play. Kinda like how Trevor Lawrence has come along after the Urban Meyer debacle. mtmuley

That's how I feel about Fields. Put good coaching and a good team around him and he will excel.

I kind like what the steelers have done. Take some swings!
Edit- let Russ cook

So Denver and Chicago will be better next year?

Yeah. Payton the savior. Hilarious. mtmuley

 

[Southern Elk]

Yeah. Payton the savior. Hilarious. mtmuley

As a Saints fan, I've said it before. Brees was a bigger reason for the Saints success than Payton was.

But is it dumber that what they had? Most kickoffs were not returned at all. Massively boring.

I think all of the teams will have to do this, not just the Bears.

Between this and the hip drop tackle......

I told you a couple months ago that soon QBs will only be tackled with flags. Might as well do it for kickoffs too.

 

[noharleyyet]

Bean counters watch the gate...not the game.

 

[PRO MO]

I'm excited for the new kickoff rule. Should bring some excitement back into the game. the hip drop tackle ban is dumb though. They continue to stack the odds against defenses, and i'm sick of it.
