How they ultimately rank this season probably comes down to health (both the TE's and their QB's for both teams) and for the Eagles Goedart progressing in his second year.

Remember one year when Payton miss all of training camp with that problem with his knee and it took him a few weeks to get going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He won the MVP that year I believe. Let's not confuse Luck with Manning and the overall team talent. That team had some margin for error. This team I believe will be very good but not good enough to overcome no Luck or a very rusty Luck. Just my take on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my take on it I don't know because the defense was not very good when Payton was here and it cost us more championships. Also I think the OL is better today than it was back then but not by far.

Steubenhoosier Posted August 15, 2019 Report Share Posted August 15, 2019 If Luck’s shoulder is good, we should be okay. He can stand back in the shotgun and throw the ball. May be limited on longer passes that take longer to develop and require a sustained pass protection, but no reason why he couldn’t throw the short to intermediate routes and be successful. Not ideal, I know. But not impossible either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted August 19, 2019 Report Share Posted August 19, 2019 Admittedly not a Big Ben fan at all so I always sided with Antonio Brown on issues he had in Pittsburgh. That being said....this guy needs to either play or take his $ and go home. I applaud Mayock for saying what he did last night. Basically we've exhausted all time and energy. Either all in or all out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Mike Tomlin can't keep him under control being the players coach that he is, I can only imagine what him playing for a no nonsense kind of guy would be like.

Tomlin isn't without fault here either. Maybe Tomlin is part of the problem and not the solution. I don't know. You chase off two of the biggest playmakers in the game....all sides of the equation have to be evaluated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted August 21, 2019 Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 FYI...for anyone who plays fantasy. Few guys on twitter are saying Melvin Gordon situation isn't getting resolved anytime soon. One of my drafts was last night (never been this early but work schedules forced it) but I started stockpiling handcuff rb's in 7th-10th rounds. Go get Austin Ekeler now if your league has already drafted. Others to really target are Tony Pollard (Zeke's backup), Darrell Henderson (Gurley handcuff), and Mattison (Dalvin Cook's backup). Good luck drafting! I'm in several leagues. Love this time of year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
