He's top 10 in receiving because they don't have any other receivers getting open. Their next best WR Chark only has 229 yards. I don't think Thielen is much more than a possession WR at this stage of his career.

While it is true that Allen taking the leap coincided with Diggs coming to town, he also showed more than enough flashes that he had the talent to be a top guy, it was more a matter of whether he'd put it together. Even though Carolina's roster is absymal, Young really hasn't shown anything that suggests he could be the guy. I'm not quite at the point where I'd say he's definitely a bust, but assuming they gave up Caleb and passed on Stroud to get him he's going to be under insane pressure next year to start showing something, in addition to Reich and management being under extreme pressure. It could unravel quick there.

How awesome that you get to win a game and improve your chances at the number one pick all at the same time. This should happen more often.
Conroy should trade first rounders with the Oilers.

My comment has as much to do with the Texans suddenly having more intrigue now.
Jax and SF is my top game.
Cleveland and Baltimore could be good if the right Browns team shows up. With the Bengals on deck for the Ravens it might be a flat spot for them which results in a closer game. Otherwise I think Baltimore easily wins by 10.
The crazy thing about the NFC is that someone has to claim that third Wild Card spot...and that might end up being a team with 8 wins. Maybe it's Minnesota, but knowing that Dobbs is the opponent I expect the Saints will handle it better than the Falcons.

I hope Dobbs runs with this opportunity in Minnesota. What he did last week was pure insanity (he hadn't practised with them, knew no one and even had to quickly go through the main cadences with the OL on the sideline), I imagine he can do quite well once he's settled in and Jefferson comes back.
Always liked him, cool dude and easy to root for. The Steelers' decision to keep Rudolph and trade Dobbs instead looks pretty insane in hindsight.

I bet Dobbs rips up the Saints in the first half on the ground on Sunday, they're soooo bad against running QBs. Dennis Allen seems to make good halftime adjustments, but I'm already ready to be annoyed. But yeah even if/when that happens, I have no ill will towards Dobbs. Great story.

Have to admire Mac Jones for committing to direct the Patriots so they can replace him. Must have been offered a lifetime job of some kind.

Pretty obvious that BB would just be another failed DC to HC without Brady.

That was the NFL showcasing football? That was awful. Men's curling was more riveting.Not much you can do when legitimately half to two-thirds of the league flat out suck.
Maybe teams should stop paying mediocre QB talent so much money. Back up QBs are making more than star RBs and lineman. Maybe rethink your league.

Nah that was late payback for WWII, forcing the Germans to sit through that is almost worse than waterboarding.

He's still a defensive mastermind but without Brady and even McDaniels it seems he's pretty clueless about running an offense. The past few seasons they have been a trainwreck offensively.

Liquidate the NFC South, what a disgrace to the league.
