I don't think anyone will take the Chiefs to a SB win, LOL.
Quarterback A:
343 completions on 570 attempts for a 60.2% completion rating. 3,822 yards. 23 TDs to 9 INTs. 87.0 rating. 239 yards per game.
Quarterback B:
308 completions on 508 attempts for a 60.6% completion rating. 3.313 yards. 23 TDs to 7 INTs. 89.1 rating. 221 yards per game.
Hint: One is a consensus top five QB and the "future" of the league. The other is Alex Smith.

Agree with Lacy. Packers receivers? Great group of guys, none of them truly exceptional. Rodgers makes that offense shine.

Oh, never change ez
I've taken ez's constant hate as a sign of respect and admiration.
If Cam was a nobody, ez wouldn't take the time out of his busy schedule (mowing the lawn in between DOTA sessions) to hate on him.
It's really hard to project what we're going to do this year. Closer we get to the season both my optimism and nervousness increase.
Yo seriously
fuck that ending. Ugh, I hate watched seasons 5-8 of Dexter
Yvonne Strahovski doe...mmmm
Your second part on Luck is spot on. Consensus top 5 today? I don't see it.
Also Luck put those numbers up when he was 24 in his second year. Smith's was in his 9th.
Going based on far from perfect DVOA/DYAR Smith is in the bottom third (Luck was at about midline).

Sounds like the type of offense you would want to beef up your secondary to face.
...
watch us take an RB in the first or second round next year.
Well, many would be right to doubt Cade McNown.
But we don't have him so that's not our business.

I think Cobb and Nelson are both really fucking good. People seem to forget how good that offense looked with HoFlynn against the Cowboys and Falcons.
Plus Luck didn't have Jamaal Charles, although I'd say Luck's receivers are slightly better than Tiny Hands'.

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
DT is almost a given in one of the first two rounds. They're losing Suh and Fairley next offseason.
I am sorry I should not have gotten upset, that was very immature of me, I apologize, please forgive me!! Also please feel free to root for who you wish, this is America after all!!
He's been driving the McCown bandwagon, not the Bucs bandwagon.
Although I'm not sure you wanna be driving either bandwagon
McNown hasn't played a game for the Bucs yet. He'll show you! He'll show all of you!
They're gaining the chance to play someone other than Fairley.

Also Indy's o-line. It's a damn miracle Luck put up those numbers with that team. Smith wouldn't stand a chance.

I still say that's the worst TV show ending ever. That whole season was very bad, but the ending put it over the top.
Neither would Manning...
Luck and Rodgers can succeed in any condition with any players around them. It's a rare quarterback who's that skilled and adaptable.
Again, if you want to hype up a player, "McNown" is not a name you want to bring up.

Luck lost Wayne for a bunch of games last year. Not sure his WRs were that good without Wayne.
16-22
42% win rate v. 41% win rate. Same difference!
I kind of doubt McNown will ever show me anything except maybe where the bathroom is at a Chicago land Wal Mart.
Yup.

Considering Luck a top 5 QB now is a stretch. Anyone who says that is overrating him a tad.
And like ez said, a second year QB putting up comparable numbers as your guy who's been in the league for a decade isn't a good look for your dude.

This is a Popeyes thread friend. You better take that gas station-tier garbage out of here. Have you learned nothing from our posts?
unless you don't have Popeyes where you live, then you have my sympathy
:jnc
It's not all that it's cracked up to be when the Seahawks are acting like a big dog with one championship compared to Green Bay's 13, Chicago's 9, and New York's 8.
Hell Detroit has 4 so you should take their place.
Man if you were kidding you pulled an Officer Farva by taking it way too far.
Edit: found a great gif that seems applicable
Hey they name the thread after my comment the following week.

Uh, Jordy is exceptional. He put up 85 rec, 1,314 yards and 8 TDs playing half the season with the poo poo platter of Matt Flynn, Scott Tolzein, and Seneca Wallace.
With Wayne, yeah, but he had Hilton and nobody else for half the year (including the post-season). Smith is a good player but he's always had that strong run game behind him (both with SF and KC).
That is a trio of great quarterbacks. Watch your tongue.
This is the reason I feel they take a step back this year. That o line is just terrible.
Texans pass rush will be fierce, Gus Bradley will greatly improve the Jags defense with some nice additions and Horton now calls the defense for the Tacks. As bad as the AFCS is the Colts o line is worse

The worst D in the league and a 4-12 team?
Pack also dropped a ton of points on the Steelers last year but that defense was also shit.
Steelers D made Brady look like 2007 Brady.

Ah, football arguments. Feels good, man.
The Colts O-Line has been dumpster fire trash since Luck was drafted and yet they've still put up 22 wins in 2 seasons.
Not going to happen. The home teams always win these home openers (I think), and Seattle is still stacked. Brutal draw for the Packers.
And now it has gotten worse while the 3 other defenses in the division have or should have improved greatly. He took quite a few nasty hits last year. this year it gets worse.
Eh, it's not that bad. Every team has rough road games, and it's only one game. The pressure is on the Seahawks, because they've set a standard where they basically aren't supposed to lose to anyone at home.

Bad D's or not you still have to have some abilities to put up points in the NFL. I dont see the Bills racking up points and yards each week no matter who they are playing. The whole was that the Packers WRs are better then middling, do you really disagree with that?
Their division is dumpster fire trash dude.
They were 5-5 out of their division last year.

Pack has no chance. Opening day game. Seahawks aren't like the Rats who managed to win the Super bowl in their last gasp and had nothing left come opening day.

You are assuming Luck is going to become way better over the years. I predict a slightly less husky Stafford.
Smith isn't going to improve at this point, but I think Kool-Aid Reid will loosen the reigns on him some. Especially after the playoff performance, where he thoroughly outplayed Luck and was the best player on the field. Shame about the Chiefs' defense.
