what the fuck lmao

[Weltall]

Never wanted the Daily Mail to be more right

[Weltall]

Fucking ATL is doomed, damn

I guess that "break for my mental health" was nonsense.

[Rhyis.]

maybe arthur smith gave him mental issues

[Rhyis.]

also kyle pitts is cool but i bet they regret not going after fields/big sexy 'cause that shit is a rebuild

[Weltall]

Absolutely no one currently regrets not going after Fields lol. In fact, I bet Denver is thanking little baby Jesus they didn't.

[Rhyis.]

actually now that i mention it i might be wrong on that. the 2021 draft class may go down as one of the most successful in recent memory for all the non-qb positions

pitts hits 1k receiving his first year as a te
chase is a total stud
waddle makes tua look like a viable qb
sewell sounds good
horn was hurt, what can you do
surtain is amazing
smith makes hurts look like a viable qb
parsons is already in the hof
slater is a pro-bowler year one
tucker doesn't seem to suck despite being on the jets

outside of horn getting injured, everyone has been awesome

josh allen sucked balls until year 3. qbs take time

[Krandor]

Josh Allen is a weird case and should not be compared to anyone else in terms of QB development.

[Xno Kappa]

Third Year Josh Allen is the new Sit A Year Patrick Mahomes.

[Rhyis.]

it applies at any qb that isn't j herbs or dak presgod. all qbs either suck their rookie year or aren't good enough to even play. year 2-4 is when guys start show something

fucking peyton mannings rookie year looked like trevor lawrences this year. rookie qbs suck. that's just how it works minus like 3 outliers

[Weltall]

Fields flat out sucks.

[Rhyis.]

is there a black rookie qb welt hasnt hated out the gate. i believe the answer is no

[Weltall]

It has a lot more to do with him coming from OSU lmao

RussWils erasure

[archibaldcrane]

Also Mac Jones is fine

[archibaldcrane]

The 4 worst QBs this season by QBR have been all 4 non-Mac rookies

[archibaldcrane]

Also Peyton's rookie year - 26 TDs, 28 INTs

Lawrence - 10 TDs, 17 INTs (he sucks dick)

It's wild that 28 INTs led the league in 1998 and only 17 leads the league in 2021.

Favre threw 17+ INTs in a season 9 times!

[Weltall]

Big Ben 13-0 to start his career and AFC Championship appearance.

Manning had 3700+ yards and 26 TDs, 5th overall in yards and 3rd in touchdowns. This was during a time when it was WAY, WAY (WAYYYY) harder to get those stats than recent years. Comparing him to Lawrence is ridiculous beyond reason. Hell, not long ago SportsIllustrated had Manning's rookie year as 10th all-time:

https://www.si.com/nfl/2016/10/11/be...uccaneers-2015

Lawrence has 3400 yards and 10 TD in the same number of games and in 2021. His season is horrible and is not REMOTELY close Peyton's lmao

the colts were 3-13 that year and likely had better personnel and coaching. i bet a lot of those stats were garbage time or otherwise insignificant

peyton manning sucked his first year.
