At least they don’t need surgery

How fun
Fun for KC going against a shit D, not gonna be fun seeing a young Lions team get slapped around by the defending champs in their home stadium

Can’t wait lol
rustic ore
Admittedly though it is kinda cool the Lions are gonna be featured in the opening game for the first time I can actually remember
versed forge
Oh wow that’s right
Hopefully lions put up a good game
I believe they added new players to their offense
I forgot who
robust grotto
A little bit of a hot take
rustic ore
Montgomery replacing Williams as the lead RB and Jahmyr Gibbs replacing Swift
robust grotto
I actually dislike that they removed the rule where each team has to play in at least one prime time game
Sure, I might not was to see Falcons Texans on Monday night.. but their fans deserve one game I feel
rustic ore
They also added Sam LaPorta in the draft who is a freak TE
dim kettle
Primetime games means shit to losing teams. Sorry, not sorry. I sure don't miss the days of seeing the Bucs lose 59-14 on TNF.
robust grotto
Yeah, Bucs losing 38-7 can stay at 1 pm on a Sunday
Don’t get me wrong though, as if I’m going to watch the Texans on a Thursday 😂 so I’m definitely contradicting
rustic ore
I see both sides of the argument, great players on shit teams will shafted out of recognition by not regularly being on primetime but also if people know a team is shit it's not gonna be a fun experience watching said shit team get embarrassed on National TV
robust grotto
It’s definitely better for the league as a whole
Yep and fans too. Like you get picked for 1 prime time a year and that’s no guarantee it’s even a home game
So as a season ticket holder for shit teams, you’d be guaranteed 1 prime time game every 2 years
rustic ore
On a side note, alleged Packers schedule
robust grotto
I’ve been to a few MNFs, it’s lowkey really hype hahah, you know the whole country is watching

Thank god it isn't another Bears Lions Thanksgiving game.

Packers getting 5 primetime games despite a complete unknown at QB

Well, it also involves Mahomes and the Giants are gonna get one because number one media market.

@dim ledge @proud coyote @celest zephyr Frontpage of Eagles SBnation site 
Eagles still butthurt people pointing out they stomped a team with literally 0 healthy QBs
dim kettle
The Bucs are down here because they assume the Bucs have no QB. But then you see the Falcons are a wildcard contender? Who is their QB?
robust grotto
Surely the jets can move down a tier as well
rustic ore
I'm guessing they're going all in on both the NFCS/NFC being shit and possibly Bijan going insane running the ball this year
Bold strategy Cotton
dim kettle
But this still doesn't explain having two 1K receivers, A defense (that lost some pieces) but pretty much the same last year that won at least 6 games alone, and yes, Baker is Mid but he's still decent enough to win some games. It's like they see Tom Brady gone and assume the Bucs didn't have talent around him.
rustic ore
I actively want Tampa to tank so badly
I want a shot at a legit QB prospect, Williams and Maye both fit that bill for me
dim kettle
It's a dream. But a dream that isn't likely coming true unless we get 100 injuries by week 6
rustic ore
On a side note what do you think of Michael Penix as a prospect? If we miss out on both Williams/Maye I wouldn't bet too upset, I kind of like what I've seen from him on film
dim kettle
Think it's a little early for me to 100% say.
rustic ore
If he has another season like he did last year I'd be shocked if he didn't go R1 next year
dim kettle
We have to see how Baker or Trask does next season. Because that could change a lot of things coming into 2024
Would be a fun one though. Penix playing for his hometown Bucs.
rustic ore
I'm not expecting much from either tbh
We know what Baker is, Trask is a complete unknown but based purely off of what he showed in college I can't help but think he benefited from top tier pass catchers and a "scheme" that was mostly just chucking it a lot
To my eyes his play style looks identical to Case Keenum
smoky fable
I actively want Tampa to tank so badly
Tampa will be good enough to miss out on Caleb
They have too much talent for that
dim kettle
My only argument for Baker is, Tampa is a lot different then what he had in Carolina, definitely a lot different then what LA was late in the year.
rustic ore
Tampa will be good enough to miss out on Caleb
You shut your mouth 
They're gonna tank dammit

Feel like the Bucs are being shit on like Seattle was last year. And no, Bowles is nowhere near Pete in coaching, but many might be surprised at the results next season.

That’s if the qb is good enough
And the offensive system is better

I mean, we went from one shit playcaller. Bucs at least win 5-6 games with the defense.

They did. They got trade offers, but wouldn’t budge off of him for the pick.

well if another team was gonna get him, I'm glad it's the steelers
yeah I like Avila
so I'm not mad
smoky fable
It made too much sense
dim kettle
Notice they also hyping up the Jets. Like, this is based on the odds of winning the division and SB. But Aaron Rodgers played like crap last year and you're just assuming he's gonna have a Brady in Tampa situation every single time?
honest umbra
plus bills are in that division still
I’m gonna assume we still go OL next year
if we are really really bad and stafford breaks down
then QB is possible too
smoky fable
Notice they also hyping up the Jets. Like, this is based on the odds of winning ...
I mean Brady struggled learning the system for the first year anyways
It wasn’t easy

I haven't seen anything
smoky fable
did the schedules release btw
Thursday night
honest umbra
so tonight
dim kettle
Jets were able to win a lot of games with the defense alone; don't get me wrong. But they're just assuming Rodgers will not have another 2022 season. Just pump the breaks on that for now, guys.
honest umbra
was rodgers solely at fault for 2022 season though
he’s not really that far removed from MVP seasons
dim kettle
Rodgers sure didn't help himself.
honest umbra
I’m more inclined to believe he’s still got it than he doesn’t
ofc I’m not gonna make assumptions about jets being insane but I expect him to play well
hollow wind
They drafted that center from Wisconsin in the 2nd round right?
dim kettle
He got paid and looked like someone who got what he want and was now lost.
honest umbra
yea I feel he will actually be motivated too
moving to a new team
he’s been on a lul for the last 2-3 years
he’s still imo the most talented QB of his gen, hard to count him out
dim kettle
Like, Peyton Manning also wasn't far off his MVP type season when he started playing like crap either.
hollow wind
I mean I'd hope so lol. If he cares at all about legacy then he needs to prove something here in NY
honest umbra
still balled out first year in Denver doe
threw 7 TDs first game
but at twilight years, he looked bad
I mean jets def know their window with rodgers isn’t very long right?
dim kettle
Don't count A-Rod out. But I'm saying don't just assume he'll just go back to MVP Rodgers either
honest umbra
I agree with u
Do think this the best team he’s been on in a while
Also the NY media is diff.. and for someone like rodgers. He’s gonna learn lol
hollow wind
I mean jets def know their window with rodgers isn’t very long right?
They're in win in the next 2 seasons mode. I do think they're a top 7-8 team with potential to be a top 5 this season so

RBs who carry the offense is the exception and not the rule in today's league.

Without question

Saints have Derek Carr?
dim kettle
Young is probably gonna have an meh season,
Gonna be harder to build around Young when you traded a lot of draft capital to move up to get him.
hollow wind
I don't ever put much stock into rookie QB seasons, especially small ones. If he's good yay, if he's not so good then sigh. As long as CJ Stround is MVP that's all that matters
dim kettle
Young is not gonna be a bust. But IDK I think they could've stayed at where they were and gotten Levis. Just don't see how Young is so much better than Levis. That's just me though.
hollow wind
I'm not super hot on either
Assuming Hurts plays 15 games or more, do you think he breaks 4000 yards this season?
dim kettle
That's assuming that Eagles offense can produce as much as they did last year. But they have the weapons to for Hurts to throw for 4K yards.
Stroud is the most NFL ready rn. Anthony Richardson has the tools to be the best QB in this class if he's developed right.
rustic ore
I would've taken Stroud over Young if I had the choice but I don't know about calling him more NFL ready rn than Young is, Young actually came from a pro style scheme, Stroud didn't
hollow wind
HENDON HOOKER SEASON BABYYYYY
rustic ore
Fields is the closest thing to a successful NFL QB OSU has ever produced and even still it feels like he's still learning the position
hollow wind
lmao
Dw, I was there this season for Stroud, I gave him the luck charm
He's gonna be the best QB from this draft by a mile
rustic ore
As much as I dislike the McNairs I hope Stroud kills it in Houston
dim kettle
I certainly think CJ is the most NFL ready pocket passer in this class at the very least.
hollow wind
I guess the main downside to his game and what separates him from Young is some of his vision and awareness
rustic ore
He's gonna have to get used to the O-line breaking down and him having to improve on the fly
Outside of Tunsil the Texans don't exactly have a great O-line
dim kettle
Will say though, if I were to give you s NFL comparison. It's probably Jared Goff with better feet. Like he's been Jared Goof before, but he's also had some good years. I think many teams would want a Goff.
weak gull
Bryce young will be best out this class easy

I think CJ will be slightly better than Goff, so it's not a one on one comparison, but you can see the similarities.

they won last game because of that backup center that can actually catch rebounds

can u do it for 40 mins against jokic lol

better than biyombo that's for sure lol

yeah the white guy has actually been decent
It's cuz he his heavier, i doubt he has the same touch on scoring

they needed a body on the post

yea but you also need to be able to score inside
otherwise they’re gonna zone it even harder

Well ayton really has given them empty stats and minutes like. I don't understand this team

It makes sense. He really does need to be used a certain way.
He is used the same way now as he was in 2019 with the pistons. The stats from that year are similar to his season in Denver this year, he’s more efficient though as Malone can coach. But admittedly, the pistons had too many guys trying to run that same role the year he was traded.

even if Luka Doncic leaves ( i might legit cry) i would still be a Dallas fan, same way i was after Dirk won
honest umbra
It just sucks he’s shadowed by the two greatest shooters of all time
Plus he’s more of a ball handling shooter so he needs more time
calm mulch
I think he can be a good player
He can be a good player but he is struggling to fit the shoes of someone that was called "steph curry clone" and was given a max of 128 mil
He clearly still needs to develop

Steph wasn’t even the star he is like 6 years into the league

I don't think anyone thinks Poole doesn't have talent. He's fast, he's agile, he's a great shooter. But he's just not a very prudent player

Luka was soo good so early that it damaged their team's chance to build around him cuz they won too much to get picks

The last few games he played he was pretty good
Even tho he only plays a handful of minutes

he wasted much of his prime being forced to play as a defensive midfielder when he is attack minded
and he is also reckless, constantly dribbling inside his own box

But this season he's been great (in the very few minutes he played)

Doesn’t make an entire team trash
The Jets roster has talent everywhere except for qb and outside backer.
Everywhere else they were solid last year. IOL arguable
dim kettle
Unless the Bucs get 100 injuries by week 4, the Bucs should be middle of the pack with all the talent still there.

On the plus side since we have a super early bye week that should increase our likelihood of tanking this year
rustic ore
3 months straight with no break is rough

They should tank fr
I want it, I want it more than you can imagine

They're not gonna tank. I would love for them to tank, but they aren't. Tom Brady not being there isn't gonna make the Bucs a basement team. The defense alone last year won 6 games.

Like, Baker is our QB. But here's my argument. The Jets with Zack Wilson and Mike White were able to win 7 games last year. Doesn't mean the Bucs are gonna be a trash team, unless, once again, the injuries start picking up early.
That's just the reality.
Really, the only thing that's keeping me from being super negative for this team is that the Bucs won a SB. Their mission was successful.
