Re: NFL 2017: With Dollar Signs in Goodell's Eyes

So McAdoo tells Eli he can start, but he wants to play the other QBs to see what they have. Eli says just start them. Among the QBs- Davis Webb and Geno Smith


Geno Smith

Geno Smith isn't great but he kinda got screwed by playing in a terrible situation as well.
 
Re: NFL 2017: With Dollar Signs in Goodell's Eyes

So where's the NFL team that is close to Super Bowl level and needs a caretaker, one or two season, QB so Eli can go out like older brother did.

My first thought: Minnesota (after Case Keenam craps the bed and loses their first playoff game*).


*Book it; it's Minnesota.

Second round, not first.
 
Re: NFL 2017: With Dollar Signs in Goodell's Eyes

I said first playoff game.
I'm assuming a first-round bye (first game in the Divisionals, not the Wild Cards) so it stings all the worse.
It's the Minnesota way.

I meant second playoff game. So the NFC Championship game. It'll get the local yokels here thinking about a hometown Super Bowl appearance, and then they'll shyte the sheets just in time to tear out the faithful's hearts.

I was stopping at impressively malicious.
You're being downright nasty.
Que sera, sera.

I'm looking at recent Vikings history when they've had a team with this good of a record going into this part of the season. They've usually won their divisional game, then lose the NFC Championship game, going back to 1998.

Goes back to 1987. Darrin Nelson dropped the pass in the end zone.
 
Re: NFL 2017: With Dollar Signs in Goodell's Eyes

No franchise has found a way to so creatively crush souls like that of the Vikings in BIG GAMES not even accounting for their 4 SB losses:

1. Drew effing Pearson
2. Darrin effing Nelson
3. Gary effing Anderson (Denny took an effing Knee)
4. 41 effing Donut
5. 12 men in the effing huddle

Never mind we were saddled with one of the worst stadiums in the history of sport, a 10-headed monster ownership group that was more interested in making money than putting a quality product on the field, the Herschel Walker trade....
 
Re: NFL 2017: With Dollar Signs in Goodell's Eyes

Eli will go to Jacksonville, reunite with Coughlin, go 9-7 and get the 6 seed in the playoffs, beat NE in the the AFC Championship game and go on to win the Super Bowl and retire a champion on like Peyton.

Oh, and make commercials for Nationwide in perpetuity

Re: NFL 2017: With Dollar Signs in Goodell's Eyes

There is a Katrina-level Twitterstorm about Eli, and I don't get it.

Dude has a worse QBR than Brett Hundley, they're 2-9, and about to make it just one playoff appearance in the last six seasons. Sure, he's one of the franchise greats, but if you can't cling to that if you want a future. Not that Geno Smith is that future, but sometimes you just need to hit reset.

He’s an example of what a good QB looks like behind an incompetent O line.

And missing what, 2 big time receivers? He's stuck in an unwinnable situation, IMO, and didn't want to play the management's game. Basically said, you're benching me using a company line, so just bench me, period. I get it.
