The reality is each team is different and there is a lot going on. The fact is, if 1 team goes to shit it is 3.125% of the league.
Green Bay trading Adams and Rodgers quitting is 3.125% of the league.
Tom Brady finally getting old is 3.125%
Baker being a bag of shit is 3.125%
Russ being a bag of shit (  **** Donk Forever ) is 3.125%
Herbert breaking his self is 3.125%
Dumb**** Carr coming apart at the seams is 3.125%
9ers inexplicably sticking to Trey Lance and trying to **** over Garoppollo is 3.125%
NO - whatever the **** is going on down there is 3.125%
The wheels coming off the Brother****ing Cheatriot ****bags is 3.125%
Indy was somehow better with Carson Wentz ( ) is another 3.125%
And those are the easy ones. That's 28% of the league just having weird shit happen. |
This is a good point and I think all true.
ALSO:
You'd have to work pretty hard to talk me out of the idea that a LOT of all the crazy shit that happened this offseason isn't all a part of what I'll call THE MAHOMES EFFECT.
As in, "we're not going to be able to get past KC without an elite WR", and "we need to trade for an elite QB or we'll never compete with Mahomes and KC!"
There was a whole lot of that going around, like everyone in the NFL without a top 5 QB lost their minds.
Now maybe it's not Mahomes, but I think the fact that the rest of the league is looking at him and realizing that he's 27 years old has them all doing desperate things.
