Quote from: Jclayton92 on May 04, 2024, 08:28:31 PMYou asked everyone to "Go and look up the offensive line rankings Tom Brady and Eli Manning both played with in the prime of their careers. It is no coincidence that both had elite level line play to give them time to dissect a defense."
All king did was give you an example of both players in their prime with horrible lines still thriving. He is one of the most knowledgeable and respectful people that post here.
We are all adults here, you've got to stop thinking everyone is attacking you with their responses. Just because someone replies either correcting you or informing you of something doesn't mean it's hostile, it's a NFL football forum, not a kids table.
You claimed king was cherry picking data when infact he was simply answering your question.
There are a ton of Qbs that you can list that played behind horrible olines and still produced at the highest levels.
Matt Stafford
Patrick Mahomes
Tony Romo
Andrew Luck
Peyton Manning
Deshaun Watson
Russell Wilson
These are just a few off the top of my head without doing research.
Eli Manning had a great line for about 4-5 of his 16 years, he spent 3/4th of his career behind a bad one.
Quote from: Ed Vette on Today at 09:28:18 AMIf they protect Jones and he has time in the pocket, he will put up top 10-12 QB stats. I'm more optimistic of the Running attack than most of you here although it may be a drop off from Barkley. Can they protect him? They brought in a decent crop of veteran Linemen.I agree the running game will be better with a rotation of backs that run forwards.
The bottom line is that there will be injuries and that Oline Depth concerns me. And while Jones can win games healthy, he would be foolish as they would to incorporate running plays with him. Jones also folds against good teams and in big moments.
Quote from: DaveBrown74 on Today at 09:01:39 AMI agree that Taylor is better than Lock, but I have to hope that our QB play is better than last year unless we think Jones' 2023 level of play is his norm, which I don't. I'd like to believe 2024 Jones will not only be better than 2023 Jones but will also be better than 2023 Tyrod Taylor and 2023 Tommy DeVito. That's an unbelievably low bar for a $40mm a year 6th year veteran starting QB

What kind of game are the Rangers going to throw at the Canes? Will rust from 12 days between games be a factor?
I'm ready to drop the puck now!
Peace!
