hi heady how sad will you be when he breaks his thumb in the next two weeks

it’s coming

[Melena]

Well, that explains why the Niners offense fell off a cliff on Thursday.

[Rhyis.]

is jimmy g physically capable of playing a full season

[Melena]

At this point, I'd say no. Not unless they change the rules to flag football.

[Boyiee]

I'd rather JT or Kupp get MVP, it's pretty dumb they turned it into a QB award. Better it goes to one of those guys instead of system QB's like Rodgers and Brady.

Where would the colts be without JT? Can't necessarily say the same about Rodgers and Brady.

[Xno Kappa]

They should just re-introduce the awards altogether.

Do something like baseball where the QB’s get their own category. Wouldn’t even take much since you already have OPOY and DPOY awards.

[Rhyis.]

it's pretty dumb they turned it into a QB award.

its the analytic crowds fault

the most valuable player must be a qb according to math, 'cause only a qb can increase a teams wins by more than faction of a game.

like aaron donald has probably been the best player in football for half a decade at this point but he only increases the rams win percentage by like 0.25% of a game 'cause of the position he plays according to nerds. meanwhile any shitty qb increases a teams win percentage by a minimum of 2 games. the great qbs its like 5

but fuck math and fuck giving ar12 or shitass more awards

Torn UCL in the thumb as well as the bone is fractured.

Parsons needs 2? more sacks to set a rookie record for sacks ever in 1 season. If he can get both next game, then noone can use the fact the season is 17 games now as an excuse either. At the very least he should get DPOY and Defensive Rookie of the Year, I'd personally argue for Rookie of the Year too.

[Xno Kappa]

Well that was quick in Ian Book’s young career.

[Xno Kappa]

Damn Saints absolutely nothing to help the kids.

[Xno Kappa]

Awww he was down.

Quinn and Watt both have an outside shot at the single season sack record tho

[Mertron]

also, i don’t think he’s dpoy, but at some point diggs having the most ints in like 40 years has to count for something

Most by a Rookie in their 1st season. Not most by anyone in any season.

[Rhyis.]

? they're 6 & 6.5 sacks away from 23 that they'd need to get in 1 game for a legitimate comparison

[Rhyis.]

but yes, diggs with 11 ints and 21 pbus is arguably one of the greatest cb seasons ever if you don't care about yards given up

[Koyangi]

He's 1 or 2 away from a Cowboys franchise record, regardless of rookie year or not.

[Rhyis.]

also parsons is technically a middle linebacker. it shouldn't be possible for him to have more than 9 or 10 sacks in a season when you account for all his tackles and time he's spending in coverage

[Koyangi]

Yeah, that's 1 reason why I think he deserves some form of a reward listed above. For his position he is extremely versatile and doing extremely well.
