I’m telling y’all about Anthony Richardson. He’ll be the best qb in this draft. The next Josh Allen:

He's talented but if you watched the end of the game he wasn't in because he kept dropping his head and lowering his shoulder and getting hit hard. He eventually couldn't get up and had to sit at the end.

I wonder if teams are going to start franchising their QB’s after their rookie deals rather than giving them franchise crippling deals. Guys like Burrow and Herbert are worth their deals individually but they won’t be able to keep the guys that make the QB better.

Everyone laughed at Washington franchising Cousins but they only gave him big money for two years.

Well let’s hope that’s coachable

Since SNF was so exhilarating tonight I was checking out this years SNF and MNF tv schedule. One question- why are the Broncos on so many prime time games. I know it’s because of Payton and somewhat Russ, but IMO they are boring to watch

Best takeaway today for Arizona. CJ Stroud was absolutely awful for the Texans and they look like a real candidate for a bottom 5 record. He isn't ready to play and that team as a whole sucks.

That won’t happen. After a totally embarrassing performance against their a divisional foe, we will get a completely focused Giants team next week.
That Giants team play Thursday night in San Fran, after AZ. I probably like the Cards chances more this week, than yesterday. QB will continue to be the X factor until it's figured out, though.

Did anyone watch the Rams/Seahawks game? Stafford shredded Seattle’s secondary with no names & Rams truly beat up the Seahags. Pete Carroll cannot be happy with what happened in the 2nd half of that game. Expect Seattle to bounce back next week.

Seahawks lost both starting tackles and after that they couldn’t move the ball at all. Unless those guys come back they won’t be able to score on the Lions.

I’m just now watching the condensed version on NFL+ & they don’t necessarily show injuries. Can’t say I’m sad about any Seattle injuries, but that doesn’t explain their D sucking. McVay is a really good coach. That Rams team was ready to play yesterday.

I mean, I really don't understand how you can be so sure about that.

Cards looked much better than them today.

Maybe because over many decades of watching the NFL, I’ve seen well coached teams rebound after a beat down like a thousand times. Football
is an emotional game & Daboll will have his team emotionally ready to play next week. Can the Cardinals win? Sure, but we won’t get the same team that lost 40-0 at home last night. It actually plays to their benefit that the game is in AZ. Most of the mice in our stands will be rooting for them anyways.

If you're talking about the Giants being well coached, just look back at the comments during the Cardinals coaching search when Mike kafka's name came up. Many were very very very against him even getting an interview, IIRC.

That’s because Daboll made the improvements with Jones work, not Kafka. Time will tell if last year’s Giants were a fluke, but I expect the Giants to be a handful next week.
