National Football League

Page 604 - Get up to date with the latest news, scores & standings from the Cycling News Community.
I'm not referencing just height but weight as well when I use the word "size." Mahomes is 225 lbs on that 6-2 frame giving him good size for a NFL starting QB (he's bigger than Elway, Montana & Favre). And he's got tremendous quickness for a man that big recording one of the fastest times in the 3-cone drill at the combine. And I don't think I have to mention that cannon of an arm - one of the strongest ever in the history of the league.

It's all Mahomes that changed the dynamics of KC vaulting them to SB champs. If he were to step away from the game today the impact he's left at KC is legendary. In 5 seasons & 80 GS, he's 64-16! In the PS, he's 8-3 with 4 AFC championship appearances & a SB title. His career RTG is 105.7. The last time the Chiefs won a SB was 50 yrs ago back in the Len Dawson/Hank Stram era.

And Mahomes wasn't even a #1 OA pick but only 10th OA. Lol. His was drafted with one primary objective - to bring a SB title back to KC. Mission accomplished & there's potentially more to come if he stays healthy.

Btw, the guy is a beast with his workouts & demonstrates amazing agility for a 225 lb man. Good upper body muscularity & big legs also.


Agility is the key. Bulk without finesse gets you an old Rothlesburger. Mahomes is just a better all around athlete as evidenced by the agility drill you mentioned.
He's also smarter: for all of his apparent improvisations on plays he doesn't make many mistakes. Again; Andy Reid and KC's offensive coaching staff get credit for putting together the parts that make it all work.
If Seattle doesn't pass the 49ers I'd like to see a KC/SF SB. I'd tune in.

The Seahawks vs Niners game could be played in hazardous conditions. The storm(s) in California aren’t letting up. Could be an ugly one.

i think they were predicting the worst of it a few days after the game which isn't to say it won't be pretty bad on game day.............

It's just rain. Some people are making it sound like the game will be played during Hurricane Katrina. "Oh no, move everything inside a dome. We could get wet!" :sleepy:

QBs taken #1 OA over the last 23 years: Tim Couch, Michael Vick, David Carr, Carson Palmer, Eli Manning, Alex Smith, Jamarcus Russell, Matthew Stafford, Sam Bradford, Cam Newton, Jamis Winston, Jared Goff, Baker Mayfield, Kyler Murray, Joe Burrow, Trevor Lawerence.

Only two have SB rings. Eli Manning and Matthew Stafford. Eli's career starts are sub average, really. Caught waves of damn good playing and defenses that rose up at the right time. Stafford won when finally sent to a stacked team that spent the house. Burrow did get his team to the SB, as did Goff and Newton - both on teams with superb defenses. Burrow looks like the real deal to me, as long as he wants to play, and has a decent team. Smith was hurt during the 49ers SB year they lost to Baltimore. The rest of them? Vick had real flashes of excitement, but never won much, folded late in seasons, and some clutch time. Luck and Bradford showed real promise, but were far too injury prone. Lawerence too early to tell. A lot of them were grossly over-drafted. In fact, most of them were.

Even if you look at QBs drafted in the top 5, you run into names like Wentz. Trubisky, Harrington, Mariota, Zach Wilson, Darnold, Bortles, Robert Griffin. Mark Sanchez, Matt Ryan, Vince Young, Philip Rivers, Akili Smith.

Out of all those guys one name stands out to me: RG3 in that he had maybe the most electric rookie year in NFL history, only to have it ruined because a coach let him play in the playoffs ignoring the doctor's non-clearance. His knee was destroyed, and with it his career. Of course both Rivers and Ryan had very good, long careers. Ryan making one SB. The rest? Forgettable, or bordering on bust status.

As to contracts, rookie contracts for QBs are a lot more realistic than they were before things changed 2 CBAs ago. Sam Bradford's contract for example was just obscene for the time (six years, $78m, $50m guaranteed, in 2010 money), which of course his getting hurt helped alter the future rules. Vets were fine with the new CBA, as it gave them more money overall. This isn't to imply these rookie QBs aren't paid well, and with that expectations to deliver. But Lawerence signed a 4-year deal for $36m total, still far under what Bradford got. Deshaun Watson makes far more than that in a single season, all of it guaranteed. Counting his signing bonus, Matthew Stafford made nearly double Lawerence's entire contract, in just this year alone! So the money is being shoveled into veterans far, far more than rookies.

I'm honestly not shocked. I think he's done in Baltimore. He must have concluded a bit ago he didn't want to be there anymore. Keep in mind, he has no agent, and has been wanting a fully guaranteed contract all along (hint: not gonna happen). I'm sure some other team will throw a heap of money at him, but I wouldn't. Each season he seems to regress some if you look at the numbers, and each year he seems to get more banged up. Starting out great, then slowly hurt more. He didn't finish the last few games last year either. Just like all running QBs, you play like that and run into a lot of 245lb linebackers coming at you to a combined 30+mph collision, and you're going to have a short shelf life.

My prediction he goes somewhere warm next year. He's presented as the face of the franchise, and history repeats itself. He has some great games, gets banged up, tries to tough it out, doesn't play as well, and limps to the end of a disappointing season. (Save this post if he plays MVP level again and you want me to look like a fool. Not that I'm not capable of that already). I could see Mark Davis wanting to shovel a bunch of money at him, but I'm not sure JMD, Ziegler and Morgan will allow him to. I can see Steven Ross doing so, dumping Tua in the process. Maybe Irsey or McNair (Houston).

Edit - I'm not sure when his contract exactly ends and he'd be an UFA, but I think Baltimore could franchise tag him. But he'd likely get $40m for it. There are also other tags I don't fully understand. A limited tag that allows them to pay him less, but if a team matches that and is willing to give up draft picks, they lose him. There's also a transitional tag. Not entirely sure how that works either. I'm sure by Saturday pundits will have every possibility listed.

I'd put Kyler Murray in a similar category. Good early career but more and more banged up and nothing too memorable done in the playoffs so far. Maybe also Dak as well but he's not a running QB. He and Murray got their money but their next contracts will be much much tougher to negotiate unless their play takes an upswing.The difference is the Cowboys have a much better squad than the Cards, a free spending maybe even reckless owner, while the Cards are also trying to shop Hopkins by the sounds of it. Like Tua, Kyler's future looks murky at the moment. Same for Lamar. Flores by all reports was ready to move off Tua before he was terminated while the Cards and Dallas took forever to decide on Dak and Murray's extensions. It's taken the Raiders a long time to move off Carr while it will be a disaster for the Ravens if they are locked into a huge contract with Lamar and he keeps getting injured. At least the Browns, Eagles and Panthers were smart enough to move on from Baker and Wentz sooner rather than later but the Browns and Watson haven't proven anything yet and their expectations will be even higher next season while maybe side eyeing the situation in Denver !

Like you, I quit trying to 'know' how all of the contracts work. IMO, both BAL and Lamar would be smart to figure it out. That being said, they also need to find a balance with his running (two of the biggest hits I saw him take though were in the pocket, plus his season ending injury was from a scramble sack right? Granted with accumulation of previous hits).

There are several different 'styles' that get classified as 'running QB', but Jackson, Hurts, and Fields are really the only running QBs IMO. Others like Mahomes, and Allen are great at running, but that's not their go to (I think that Allen was 4th on the year, but that still isn't his #1 trick). Also, knowing how to avoid any hits, let alone big hits, is something that makes a huge difference (ie: look at how often Mahomes runs for 12 yards down the sideline and then out of bounds).

work...

Chargers vs Jags, I Iike both of those young QBs. JAX is a team on the rise and SD is solid.
I don't see the Fins beating the Bills.
Nor do I seethe Giants beating the Vikings.
Nor the Raven beating the Bengals.
Hard to pick the Monday game. The Cowboys are a better team for sure, but they already lost to them once (granted several months ago), and if DAK tries to win the game on his own...

Correct on Lamar's injuries this year. It was a scramble sack that banged up his left knee. But I'm mostly talking about where he is now, and the future. I'm not saying he's the next RG3, that guy's career was ruined on one play. But can Lamar turn into a QB like Mahomes, the way he runs? RG3 tried, but couldn't seem to mentally. Lamar can definitely throw the ball, but not like Mahomes (or Allen). So there are some tough decisions, and tricky assumptions to make. If the Ravens don't franchise/transition him to keep him, someone will pay him and play him.

That's something that will be interesting this coming year. Quite a few QBs will be on the market, some have played quite good in the past, recent past. Lamar, Carr (not a good 2022 though), Garappolo. Maybe Rodgers, Brady, Tua. Jury out on Mayfield. He still has real talent, but can he really take a team to be a winner? I'm not so sure.

Thoughts on Allen: He is built like a linebacker. That doesn't mean he can't get hurt, he could. But he's a pocket passer first, and in a position where he can easily be coached to run out of bounds, slide more. That's different than where Lamar is. Another thought on Allen. His elbow was hurt in the Jets game. He played through it, but his stats don't look great for the season because of the five game stretch where he was hurt. TD/INT of 4/5, passer rating under 100. He's only had one bad stat game since, vs. Chicago. But they easily won that game. He still shows up on their injury report. So, is he really close to 100%? Micah Hyde thinks he can maybe play in the Super Bowl, maybe even NFC championship, his neck almost healed. Coaching staff said they wouldn't rule it out. Even as a dime back, if he could contribute at all, his mind on the field could be big.

I'll list my final predictions for tomorrow's games later. The hardest to pick are the Chargers Jags game, and Tampa vs. Dallas. All the talk of Tampa feeling good at home, Tom never lost to Dallas. But Dallas is better on paper, without question. I agree if Dak just tries to take over the game, he'll make enough mistakes for them to lose. Derrick Carr has the same problem. There's a reason QBs like Darryl Lamonica aren't around in this league anymore. Lots of bombs, and a quarter of them picked off, isn't really a reliable strategy these days. ;)

Even Allen is getting dinged up and he's bigger than many RBs. But its hard to watch a Bills game lately and not notice how much running he is doing.

The injuries to Tua and Murray have virtually killed those games without viable back ups.

Give the Giants a chance and I like the Chargers to win but they probably need Williams on the field.

Cowboys should win but possibly won't.

Expecting a good game between the Hawks and 49ers but the Hawks probably have to win the turnover battle to have a chance.

The Seahawks Niners game will either be a last minute Seattle win or a dominant San Francisco performance where the Niners take control early and then coast. Seattle hast to play a very, very good game to have a chance, or make it really ugly with their running game and hope the defense can play above expectations. San Francisco is just a better team right now. Hard to see Seattle winning with their defensive struggles.

Because those guys were dual-threat QBs in college while Mahomes & Allen were listed as pro-style QBs coming out of HS. FFS, Jackson rushed for over 4000 freaking yards (6.3 avg) & 50 TDs in just 3 seasons in Louisville! But he had an arm as well throwing for over 9000 yds in those 3 seasons. Jackson could either beat you with his feet or arm (RPO offense) & drove defensive coordinators crazy. Hurts rushed for over 3200 yds in 3 seasons with Bama/Oklahoma. Murray was another stud at Oklahoma rushing for over 1000 yds in his last season there. Trey Lance is a dual-threat QB rushing for over 1100 yds in just one season of college ball at ND State, and Skylar Thompson, scheduled to start for Miami this week, is a dual-threat QB out of K-State.

If you look at the top 4 & 5 star QB recruits coming out of HS every year, they're classified as either dual-threat or pro-style & given an ESPN ranking at that style as well as given an overall QB ranking. For example, Justin Fields was ranked as the #1 dual-threat coming out of HS but only the #2 OA QB. Lawrence took the honors as the #1 pro-style QB as well as the #1 OA QB prospect that particular year.

Dual-threats are what they are. I don't think you can change their style once they get to the pros - they're the master of the RPO offense. The better question is can you let them utilize their style while minimizing their injury risk.

Can Lamar run less? Yes. Can he be Mahomesesque? No. Can he be a really solid QB somewhere between who he is now and Mahomesesque? Yes. Like I said, it would be in the interest of both he and BAL to figure it out, but there are several other teams that he could be really good at. A friend of mine really wants him to take over for TB12 at TB, but I'm not sure about that fit.

I have hated wildcat of whatever version.. Intentional.. hybrid like the NO Saints.. and the accidental like a bunch of NFL teams and in my mind Chicago being trash..
as if the coach should call in lineman being eligible because of the microseconds they hold the block..
there really is not a workable solution from no pass blocking and QBs without a pocket for whatever reason are doomed.
As I see the non existing pocket or the almost instantaneous disintegration and the quarterback scramble up field to match up against linebackers and defensive backs is dangerous ..the slide has become a lifesaver for sure and doesn't look to be second nature for many quarterbacks.. Josh Allen first player to come to mind with career ending horrible decisions made in every game.. guy snaps into fullback mode channels his inner Larry Csonka ..
I really hope that Justin Fields and others exit the league early for too much downfield running or even going between the tackles..

Allen has mentioned there's been much internal talk from coaches to have him run out of bounds and slide. My gut tells me we will see more of this next season. Now? He'll do whatever he can to win.

Trey Lance is a dual-threat QB rushing for over 1100 yds in just one season of college ball at ND State.
And there is part of the problem. He played one single year in college, a DIV-II one as well. Yes, his stats were gaudy, but SF became crazy in love with this tiny sample size, without really thinking about how far he had to go to play in the NFL. Can his dual-threat capability carry the 49ers for years to come? I personally doubt it. Could be a few flashes of amazing play. If people question if Lamar can stay more in the pocket, I see less of that from Lance. Then again, who knows how good he is? He played one single season in college. That's it.
Dual-threats are what they are. I don't think you can change their style once they get to the pros - they're the master of the RPO offense. The better question is can you let them utilize their style while minimizing their injury risk.
Exactly. And I think Lamar is a good example. As amazing as he is, the fact is he was hurt several times in varying ways the last two seasons shows you that if a running back has a shelf life of 3-4 seasons, a running QB isn't far behind.

If someone knows how to minimize risk on a dual threat QB who runs the RPO, and runs, everyone will follow. I just don't see how it happens. You run the ball, you're almost always going to get hit.
Can Lamar run less? Yes. Can he be Mahomesesque? No. Can he be a really solid QB somewhere between who he is now and Mahomesesque? Yes.
I honestly question that. RGIII tried this, and it didn't work. Then again, his knee really was trashed after his rookie year. He couldn't cut, couldn't even plant well he later admitted. Had some okay straight ahead speed. Lamar isn't that banged up. But I don't see him getting to the point where he's such a pocket passer that teams no longer have a spy on him, which then allows him to pick up 10+ yards in front of him without getting hit. This is what Mahomes does (many others before him). Josh Allen does similar, except Josh is 6'5", 240lbs, so he'll just lower his shoulder and get hit anyway (put in perspective, Gronk is only slightly bigger at 6'6", 260). Or he'll run to gain 5+ yards at times. That's what I'm sure Buffalo coaches are scolding him on.

I like Lamar, he's hard to not like. But I honestly wouldn't take a flyer on him at $40+ mil a year on a long-term contract, much of it guaranteed, like he's expecting (and someone will pay).

Final picks, just before kickoff:

SEA@SF - Weather looks okay. Not that it would have made a huge difference. I think Seattle will play hard, but will take SF by about 10. Seattle needs to be very close, or have the lead, in the 3rd quarter to have a real chance.

LAC@JAG - The more I look at this game, the more it seems to me the Jags are on a more positive trajectory in every way. Coach, players, stability, home. Chargers are probably better on paper, and Herbert has played great the last 2/3 of the year, but Williams is out, they have some internal noise, rumors Staley will be fired so they can hire Sean Payton (Rooney rule? What's that?). I'm sticking with the Jags.

Not quite Div-II - North Dakota State plays in Division 1 - FCS (they jumped ship from Div-II to FCS in 2004). FCS schools can play FBS schools in non-conference but are ineligible for FBS bowl games as they have their own 16 team playoff format.

Carson Wentz also came from North Dakota St. Who would have thought that two QBs drafted at the #2 & #3 OA spots would come from a small FCS school located in Fargo, ND? Lol.

Interestingly, Lance was only a 2-star recruit coming out of HS & his only FBS offers were from him to change position to WR. Like you said, he basically had only one year of college ball - though he did throw 28 TDs passes to no picks in his one full season.

Supposedly, he put himself on the map & became a top draft pick solely on his phenomenal showing at ND State's pro day (the combine was canceled because of Covid). I guess the scouts were in shock & awe with his arm strength & throwing capabilities, plus he's big kid (6-4, 225) with great speed (4.5). It sure had to be something special to go from playing just one full season at a FCS school to thee #3 OA pick in 2021 draft.

Hawks played well in the first half but got sloppy in the second with the penalties and run defense. Metcalf and Geno couldn't replicate their first half and the turnovers eventually came while Purdy looked frustrated but came good in the second half. Aiyuk dropped another certain TD. 49ers had a few too many guns for the Hawks.
