    I know the #NFL is a cold business but watching the lack of concern or empathy from the scouts, coaches and observers following David Ojabo’s injury bugs me. Perhaps someone should’ve checked on him instead of grabbing the ball and moving to the next drill. Just a thought..

    You can’t allowQBs to run around and play games with defenders with all of the protections the NFL provides them. If they’re gonna run and slide late, then defenders should be able to hit them like RBs. Can’t put all of the onus on defenders to “protect” the QB. It’s stupid..

    In 2018, Black QBs STILL have to deal with the perception that they are intellectually inferior.. I’m tired of the “coded” language in scouting reports.. I’m tired of the double standards.. I’m tired of sitting here acting like it’s ok to ignore the “dog whistles”.. It’s dumb

    Ryan Tannehill is perfect example of why coaching matters. He looks like a completely different QB with the @Titans . Sometimes we need to evaluate the play-callers and QB developers before we call young QBs busts or flameouts. It might the COACHING that’s holding them back

    Hmmm... I guess a team full of social activists can focus on 🏈 while also helping those in the community. Maybe more teams should embrace and encourage their players' pursuits outside of football. The #Eagles success proves the "distraction" narrative is a myth..

    It’s too easy to blame the special teams for the Packers’ loss, but the offense was shut down for almost 3 quarters. We can tip toe around it, but MVPs should be able to seal the deal in playoff games.. The standard is the standard, right? 🤔

    I woknder why I no one suggested that Josh Allen move to WR or TE to take advantage of his athleticism and running skills 🤔 Asking for a friend...

    Jameis Winston plays pro football like it’s a neighborhood game with the homies. Don’t worry about turnovers.. Just keep slingin’ the rock. At some point, one of the homies will make a play. Just make one more play than the other guys..

    This might not seem like a big deal but NFL scouts will share this story with execs and coaches in pre-draft meetings. It speaks to Burrow’s competitiveness, poise and clutch factor while also highlighting his multi-sport background (All-State HS BBall Player).

    The Oklahoma football team faced the LSU football team in a basketball shooting challenge. The Sooners had all but locked it up. Unfortunately, Joe Burrow went last — and of course went 10-for-12 😳 (📷 from @emilyvdixon)

    Perhaps a certain QB should’ve spent more time working on his game with his teammates and less time campaigning for personnel power..

    Russell Wilson is the consummate professional to handle the Broncos’ financial ultimatum and benching threats, while continuing the lead the team to wins. Though he is not the player he once was, he deserved to be treated with more respect. The sideline tongue lashings, in

    Don’t know why this take is controversial. Cam basically broke down the QBs into “trucks” (QB carries the team) and “trailers” (Team carries the QB). The guys rated at the top of the list routinely put their teams on their backs. With or without a dominant supporting cast, we’ve
