Im going through some O/Us, and saw the Patriots are at 8.5.

What is their ceiling? Like 9 wins, maybe?

Only thing im reading into with the RB snaps is that Badie and Jaleel are probably battling for RB3, and maybe Watson and Estime are fighting for PS spots.

Dont expect to see RJ>JK week 1. I think they just wanted to give RJ as many preseason touches as they can knowing what theyre getting from JK.

I've concluded that the NFL needs Drake Maye to be a bust.

Patriots fans do not deserve another good QB so soon after Brady.

And the filmies are getting way too ahead of themselves with him.

The greater good would benefit from humble pie being served to both parties.

Im not writing off the possibility a starter misses more time than McGlinchey did last year, but the idea that last year was an outlier is just wrong.

Im noticing some concern about the Broncos OL health heading into this season, because the OL was so healthy last year.

Odd to me, considering the OL was actually even healthier in 2023 than 2024.

I don't get the Packers love this offseason.

Are people just fading the rest of that division? Because I dont see how they're a top 5 team this year.

Love this app

The Demaryious Thomas news has me crying at work

I have not, just started TJ Sanders and am trying to get Lott today.

I'll get to Farmer before the draft

Yea how often he ended up so far away from the ball was concerning. Not even from getting pushed down the field, there were at least 2-3 plays a game i watched where he looked legitimately lost

Nolen is weird for me. I see the pass rush juice, but I don't think it's as tantalizing as people discuss. I think the other 3 are bona fide top 20 players... Nolen not so much

Collins will have a role in this league, just dont see much (if any) pass rush upside. Doesn't seem like a VJ kind of DL

Just some general thoughts.

Mason Graham is the best, but I don't think he's as dominant as consensus makes him out to be.

Grant and Harmon are not far off. Neither are going to have dominant pass rush wins like Graham, but I think they can be very disruptive and are more versatile alignment-wise

Im trying to get through an in depth watch of the iDL in this class (as I think it's a position Denver targets early).

What i have so far:

Tier 1

1. Mason Graham

Tier 2

2. Kenneth Grant
3. Derrick Harmon

Tier 3

4. Walter Nolen

Tier 4 (big gap)

5. Alfred Collins

I'll try and update

I don't think one takes away from the other.

And also the staff has asked him to do a lot less as a passer in recent weeks, so idk why they would do that and not also help him with the designed QB run game

ESPN's pregame show is imploring Payton to use Bo as a runner more, something I completely agree with.

Felt like Denver's best stretch offensively was when they started using him in the designed run game. No idea why they went away from it

I think there's a reasonable middle ground here where we accept Payton has been great for the Broncos, but he has not been coaching well of later.

People wanting to fire Payton or deflect blame away from Bo are obviously doing so in bad faith.

But I think there are plenty of reasonable criticisms of Payton the last few weeks. And it feels like some (not you) want to ignore that because the team has a winning record.

Haven't been this upset the day after a Broncos game in a long time.

Bengals tried to hand the game away about 5 different times, and Payton, Bo, and a couple other culprits refused to capitalize.

I'm simultaneously laughing while losing my mind reading these Payton post game quotes.

Awful coaching tonight and he has in no way justified any of his decisions

Sean Payton coached a horrible game.

Absolutely inexcusable from start to finish.

Joe Burrow looked clearly down, what were they looking at on review?

Having 9 days off before Cincy will be very helpful for this team.

But I'm going to hate having this game on my mind for longer than a week.

Someone should let the HC know this!

10 targets for the worst RB on your team is nuts.

What is this staff watching?

Hopefully very far away from this team before the Bengals game

There has to be some politics behind the scenes. There's no reason on merit Javonte should play as much as he does

Estime having 9 carries this late into a game where Denver had the lead for most of it is inexcusable.

Fire the RB coach or whoever is in charge of this

Pretty sloppy play and questionable coaching decisions since those 3 TDs on 3 drives.

I think he's been solid for the most part this year. This game has been significantly worse

Strnad and Barton having disaster games at the same time has been very annoying
