I'm a big Jacoby guy, but while he looked good early on...then things went downhill after the first 3 or so games :/

Second half of the season they were 24th in EPA/play (vs 8th in 2024 w KM!)

Talked about Murray in depth with @danpizzuta.bsky.social on the pod. But in short: A bunch of teams *should* take a swing here…and Kyler *should* prefer Minnesota.

Also, Jones tore his much later in the season. Let’s say he’s back by week 4….will he be BACK back? What if he’s not himself again until a year out (Kirk took longer than that imo)?

Alright let’s try this again….

I get why the Colts did this given the lack of options, but some of the discourse around the market for Jones is confusing to me given the Achilles injury. Cousins took forever to get back to normalβ€”Jones is younger, but athleticism is a big part of his game.

Less money ($38 mm) but if another team offers a deal and you don’t match it, you don’t get draft compensation. They’re betting no one will.

Man. Feels like there are quite a few teams that need centers right now--could lead to a few rising in the draft (and Tyler Linderbaum making an absolutely ridiculous amount of money, ofc)

One of my favorite things about Fernando Mendoza is bc he is smiling in literally every photo ever taken ofhim, he looks happy next to any headline

Gadsen is great but he’s basically a receiver. Sadiq’s ability to line up inline and block adds a completely different element to the offense.

I wrote this book as personal history of the World Cup. A magical telling of the power of the men’s tournament which is like a solar eclipse that engulfs the entire planet for its duration... 🧡

He’s *extremely* Mike McDaniel coded. I know they have other needs but it wouldn’t surprise me!

Talked about why I think Oregon TE Kenyon Sadiq’s well rounded game would fill a need in Philadelphia

One of the best talking Bears (and the NFL generally) out there. Someone smart should hire her.

Huh. Call me crazy but I don’t think ceding all mainstream platforms as a form of resistance is the way to sway the public.

Don’t disagree with this but uh why is OP making this about Jamelle? Is the argument here that working for the Times is in and of itself disqualifying bc that seems…pretty unproductive

Today should be your 38th birthday..
When you lose your son you lose more than a child you lose a piece of your heart and your joy. Life is forever altered, and nothing can ever fill that space. Yet in my soul, he remains, my precious boy, forever loved. His laughter, his smile, and his love are woven into who I am. My love for him will never fade. Yor are my pride and my joy - you've made a change that cannot be broken..

Taking a gigantic cap hit then giving $30+ mm to Malik seems wild to me and I like Malik!

Not shocked that Taylen Green put on a show today. He’s the most Randall Cunningham-like athlete that I can remember at the QB spot.

Talked about Green’s background (with another player comp) when previewing the combine this week with @minakimes.bsky.social!
