Jalen Hurts took a massive leap all the way up to #25 on Chris Simms QB top 40 list

Interesting... I thought he'd way over correct himself and have him around 15.

    I'm sorry I brough such a depressing topic into the blog.  A little back story without too much detail. I met my friend 12 years ago during an AF commissioning program. He was on top of the world

Chris Simms, obviously racist.

Nah. He basically said he moved him up because he underrated his running ability but he's still a bad passer. 

 

First compliment??

Helmet technology is changing quite a bit.  What Riddell has created with the Axiom is the ugliest thing I've ever seen.  Even with the visor it looks bad.  Without it, absolute trainwreck.

Took them 2 minutes to work up to that too.

Yikes...16:24.   He's a better runner than I thought, not enough credit for leadership and toughness.  Throwing isn't up to par.   

How is that a good QB?

Because Madden rankings and fantasy football.

Had to go back to the start of the video to see who Simms ranked him above.  Boy, tough to rank Hurts above Tua and Trubisky.  No way I'd rank him above Mariota.

#25 might be charitable; would have to see who he's ranked #20-24, though.  I had Hurts at around #22 most of last season.

But surely if its harder to purchase and own the guns in the first place, then thats a start? 

Who in their right thinks its ok for someone on their 18th birthday to go out and purchase 2 guns which ultimately killed those poor kids. No permit or background checks required. Here you go, have fun shooting up a school. 

Make them more expensive, increase the legal age. tax the crap out of ammo.

Do something?

 

Make it like a car, mandatory liability insurance on each gun annually. Let the insurance companies play god and pay good

That’s a weird list. I don’t think Hurts is anywhere close to a Trevor Lawrence.

Yeah, TBF I'd have Hurts over Wilson and Fields for now.  It will be interesting to see what Lawrence does with coaching from Doug and Press (not sure if good).  

Mac Jones will be coached by Joe Judge this season.  Finally hearing national reporters starting to ask WTF Belichick is doing with his coaching staff.  Joe Judge as QB coach and passing game coordinator, Matt Patricia as OL coach and run game coordinator.  This has the potential of Bill pulling the plug and retiring soon.

So Howie wanted to trade him after the concussion in the playoffs? I will say he did self report the symptoms but I am assuming he was told he couldn't go back based on an evaluation by the onsite doctor.  https://foxsportsradio.iheart.com/content/2020-01-10-carson-wentz-was-cleared-to-return-vs-seattle-self-reported-concussion/

Part of his argument is take away anything specific, so Hurts doesn't have the Eagles O-line or skill players or coaches, and replace them with average generic players. I'd probably take Wilson and Lawrence in that scenario. I dunno about Fields.

Getting Brandon Hunt, the actual best member of the Steelers FO, is an upgrade over Weidl.

If he is better than Weidl then why aren't they keeping him? I trust the Steelers FO  more than ours.

Yeah, but we can live with that if it keeps them safer.

Is it too much to ask for that scumbag Gruden to get reinstated by the league so Jerry can hire him to coach the Turds?

Jerry has his eyes on Sean Payton.

It's not rated as high as the more traditional newer helmets.  Helmet safety can only go so far.  More and more with the newer helmets what you're seeing is head scanning capabilities but that's nothing that the F7 or Speedflex doesn't offer.

The big selling point on the Axiom is field vision.

I don't know how you guys can even tell the difference in helmets.

Well they look different, so there’s that
