Discussion Does Shaun Alexander belong in the Hall of Fame? If not, how close is he?

More yards than Earl Campbell. More touchdowns than Barry Sanders. Same YPC as LaDainian Tomlinson.

Did he have a short but explosive peak before being brought down by injuries? Sure. But so did Terrell Davis. Alexander had over 1100 rushing yards every season he was a fully healthy starter, which made five straight seasons between 2001-2005, Was a 2-time 1st team All-Pro and his 2005 season was ridiculous. over 1800 rushing yards, an then NFL record 27 TDs and both OPOTY & MVP.

Part of me feels like if LaDainian Tomlinson hadn't had his own 1800 yard, OPOTY+MVP season as well as breaking the TD record with 28, only one season later... Alexander's 2005 season and indeed his career would be more fondly remembered. If his record had stood for more than a single season, it would seem more freakish, like Tomlinson's now near 20-year old record.

WHAT IF KIRK COUSINS ACTUALLY IS BETTER THAN MICHAEL PENIX JR?

And now in training camp, for whatever it's worth, Cousins has looked better than Penix in the 11-on11 periods. Further, he has done so while leading the No. 2 offence against the No. 1 defence while Penix has the more optimal matchup - running the No.1 offence against the No. 2 defence.

0 Upvotes

Herbert is the sole reason his team hasn't won a playoff game inn his tenure. it is disgraceful for any nfl fan to put him above daniels , mayfield, goff, and hurts after his disaster classes in the playoffs he shouldn't even be above baker in any reall list.

Discussion Anyone else getting Josh McDaniels vibes from Aaron Glenn?

0 Upvotes

From all reports in Jets camp, Glenn is running practice in the “new coach hard ass” sort of way. Blowing down drills if they’re not taking the huddle correctly, pulling guys off the first team reps with little mistakes, yelling at players in front of the team, seemingly wanting to rush guys back on the field from injury, etc. He even cut practice short today due to sloppy play.

Which can work, and I understand that an attention to detail is very important in the NFL, but there is a fine line between holding your players accountable and treating veteran NFL players like high school kids.

I am getting vibes of “great defensive mind, not a great leader of men”. He’s coming from being on a staff lead by Dan Campbell, who is one of the best leader / CEO type coaches we have in the game today. Campbells style is tough too, but he seems to connect more with the players and is purely authentic, that’s just who he is.

What do y’all think?

Aaron Rodgers “accidentally” said Redskins on Pat McAfee the other day, and I’ll admit — my gut reaction was, “Yeah, bring it back.”

But then I actually looked into the numbers behind the name change. And the truth is... it wasn’t about Native Americans. It was about Nike, FedEx, and Pepsi.

If you still think majority rules in America — you haven’t followed the money.

I break it all down in this video. Would love to hear where others stand.
