Conspiracy Theories: The bastion of the weak minded. 

Quote from: kingm56 on Today at 07:00:19 AMInteresting observation, Ed.  As a byproduct of 'recent' rule changes, I have to believe this will change in the near future.  If Justin J can remain healthy, I suspect he'll have the best chance.  It's also possible that if Jerry Rice wasn't a victim of the '87 player strike, he would have been the MVP.  His 23 TDs in 10 games garnered him 30 votes; Elway nudged him out with 36 votes.  I could be wrong, but I believe that was the closest any WR came to MVP honors.

There have been Receivers who completely took over and dominated yet they give it to the QB who has many options to throw the ball to. Moss, Fitzgerald, Johnson, Harrison, Owens and of course, Jerry Rice. Yet they gave it often to RB's who many say are a dime a dozen and need an Oline. lol

I was thinking the same thing myself yesterday with Neal Young's song in my head. Unfortunately somehow this will turn into a political thread, Lenn.

Quote from: MightyGiants on May 03, 2024, 08:01:54 AMTrue, but "fan" is short for "fanatic".  I sort of expect some fans to behave that way, especially ones who really liked Barkley and were hurt or felt betrayed by Barkley joining a despised division rival.   I would think the wealthy players who have a new base of fans supporting them and cheering them couldn't be bothered with the nonsense.

Did you ask yourself how you would react?

Neither can the ignorant fans.

If Tommy was in this years draft, he would have been sitting at a bar in downtown Detroit with Sam Hartman watching the draft.

Everyone likes Tommy and I hope he does well, but the Giants aren't going to carry three QB's and he's not making the final roster unless Jones or Lock get injured or traded. He's going to hit the waver wire and if he clears, he will wind up on the practice squad.

If they really believed in Jones, it would not matter who he was throwing to. Eli had some good receivers and a couple of almost elite and a lot of Jags. We're Nicks, Manningham and Cruz great receivers or did Eli make them look good? How would those three look on this team? The best receivers Eli had were Toomer, Odell and Plax. He found a way to get the ball to Smith, Tyree, and the rest.

I would have drafted Alt if not a QB. Evan Neal has to find a way to a starting role on this team. Either at RT competing with Alt or Guard. The best way to get better results from Jones is to protect him in the pocket. If you want to get his head clear, protect him. He didn't need a shiney hood ornament. Just ask this guy...
