Lol

Would Daniels do this if he was a Steeler?

It would take them years to figure how to get him a decent online.

You don't know what they would do....sometimes QB has the ability to elevate the play of those around him. That's sort of what a franchise QB does, especially mobile who is able to make something out of nothing when a play breaks down with his legs. Ever thought about that?

Goff isn't having a good game, and isn't on the same level as Mahomes, Allen or Lamar, but to say he isn't even a good QB is pretty ridiculous.

He has flaws and probably wouldn't play as well in many other offenses, but there are a lot of productive QBs you can say that about.

Testaverde never played as well as Goff has the past couple seasons or in his Superbowl season with the Rams.

Testaverde was never on a team nearly as good as this Lions team. BTW, Vinny ended up having a better career than most people think. He's 16th all time in passing yards and when he retired, he may have been top 5. A bunch of guys passed him after he retired.

Goff is a system guy. He can play really well if he doesn't have to do too much. That's why McVey moved on from him. He knew he was a limited player. Lots of system QBs have good success. Sam Darnold just had a great year. Brock Purdy. Ryan Tannehill had some big seasons when the Titans had a great run game and AJ Brown.

Goff isn't a guy who can win very often when the game goes off script.

When I was younger I had a weird re-occuring dream that Testaverde was a UPS driver and kept delivering me packages......I was not even a huge fan of him

Maybe Washington would trade Dan Quinn for Tomlin even up......:love:

Never hurts to dream....
 
Well….. congratulations to Washington…. I am quite surprised. Detroit fans must be pissed.

Make sure he brings the franchise QB with him or it will be much of the same or worse.

Maybe a team that was a little too confident? That was just a meltdown today with all the turnovers and a defense that couldn't stop anything Washington was doing.

Detroit has a good chance to lose both coordinators, but since apparently coaching doesn't matter, they should still be a well-oiled machine.

That explains the $50.00 thing
 
Great win by the Skins...This sort of reminds me of the run the Steelers made as a 6 seed. Wouldn't be surprised if they win it all.

I just resist the notion that Goff isn't a "good" QB. There are only a handful of QBs right now who could excel in any offense.

Having some limitations doesn't automatically preclude a QB from being a franchise guy you can win a Superbowl with, at least IMO., as coaching and scheme match are important.

It's also worth noting that the Lions offense still scored 30 points tonight despite turning the ball over multiple times in the redzone .
 
Goff and St Brown won me a lot of money in FF this year
 
The Commanders are for real!

They've caught lightning in a bottle, they're gonna shock the world. Calling it now!
 
Daniels is money. Detroit bounced a check.

All it takes is two solid drafts including a QB.

Detroit is all knuckle dragging troglodyte at all times, it's all Dan Campbell knows and now we see where that gets him: A loss when it matters most. I knew his neanderthal ways would catch up to him and they did. All he could do is to stare off into the distance as his team just kept blizing. Washington just tore him apart, bit by bit, into shreds.
