3) Nobody had film on him last year. - Oooph.
4) Left-handed throws should be outlawed. - haha_meme.jpg
5) AS11 taught him everything he knows. - He taught him SOME things for sure, but not the talent. Laughable.
6) Just hasn't experienced adversity. - Sure he has. And to add, the AFCCG was a HUGE stage. Down a shitload at halftime. GTFO.
7) It's the scheme. - It's always the scheme. Mahomes is Scheme+

It's a lengthy and growing list ...

I have taken the time to respond with my personal comments as they relate to your list.

That kind of pressure coming up the middle is damned hard to replace.

I would keep him at all cost- trim the fat by cutting Hitchens, don't have the highest-paid punter in the NFL, cut Watkins if he does not produce this year and stays healthy. There are plenty of places to get replacement grade players at a fraction of the cost.

The Clark and Jones combo is going to wreck shit this year.


They might cut Colquitt from a full-time salaried position to a part-time hourly position. That would probably also cut costs on his benefits plan like vacation and dental coverage.

ROFL

I am sure the dropoff down to Fox would be negligible for as many times as we punt. PM2 does not play to set up the punter- he keeps him on the bench.

What's with these videos? The Zapruder film was better than these.

Question here. Couldn't you extend Watkins for 2 years, roll his 25.7 million dollar base salary into a signing bonus, and save roughly 6 million against the cap this year and 8 million against the cap next year, and have him cheaper for years 3 and 4 of his contract? Or is it too late to roll this years salary?

The laughable part of this (and it is highly amusing) is that they're still reaching for "reasons" that explain his past success and future potential limitations on the field, Mr. eDave.

It's become a bizarre parlor game with the pundits ... who can come up with the stupidest reason in the shortest amount of time?

Apparently, they're either unwilling or unable to recognize the truth right in front of their eyes ...

I’ve quickly become a huge fan of Kissel and Leckey, watching In The Trenches currently... add Baldy and that would be a great trio
