I enjoying watching the chiefs whenever I tune into NFL but the whole Taylor Swift thing is almost a complete turnoff.

The Dodgers? Take it easy. We haven't hurt, broken, and made cry half as many franchises as the Chiefs have

Dodgers has always out spend most teams due to the market they are in but they never cheated the game as far as I know but win with class, unlike the Astros who blatently cheated from top management down to their key players to beat the so called hated LAD in the 2017 World Series. Worse yet, that scandalous team did not have their WS banner stripped from them is one of the main reason why I stopped following MLB. The Blacksox scandal were treated far worse for doing much less cheating. Astros is probably still universally hated by other teams to this day!

And Taylor is nothing like Kardashian, so you should lay off the ignorant comparisons just because you don't like her.

Other than Allen vs Hurts, feel like the Eagles are better at pretty much everything than the Bills. Should be able to limit KC much more.

Hoping Saquon goes off again, and the pass rush actually gets to Mahomes better than the Bills' did today.

On a per game basis the quarterback (that matches the stipulations above) most likely to get a roughing the passer flag is currently:


Josh Allen with 0.309 per game.

To match or top that per game rate:

Tom Brady would have needed 44 more calls in his 253 games from 2009 until his retirement.

Patrick Mahomes would have needed 10 more calls.

Lamar Jackson would have needed 19 more calls.

Jalen Hurts would have needed 19 more calls.

The whole Taylor and Kardashian thing to me is like this. They are pushing her on everything like even in Toronto when Taylor came to do her concert here they renamed city streets and basically gave her everything she wanted. I have a feeling Kelce is retiring at the end of the year and we are getting a reality show with Travis, Jason and mama Kelce plus Brittany Mahomes or whatever her name is and Taylor is going to be in it. I honestly don't get how she's this popular my girlfriend loves her and I tried to watch they tour thing she did and found it super boring

As for the Dodgers it's simple they are linked to every generational superstar from Ohtani, Soto, Guerrero Jr and everything in between like now I am hearing they are going after Max Scherzer to just be an insurance piece in case one of their 7 capable starters goes down and potentially not let Ohtani pitch this year if he's still not ready.

I agree what the Trashstros did was bad with Altuve but the Dodgers are the new evil empire

Idk maybe I am putting too much into both but watching KC win and hear Mahomes being called better than Joe Montana or Brady is asinine

So obviously there's the big 4 of Mahomes, Allen, Burrow, and Jackson, but after those guys, I think you can make a strong case for Hurts at #5 when considering playoff performance. Other guys that might do better in the RS fell flat on their face in the playoffs (Herbert, Darnold, Goff, Love).

I guess if you've seen enough of Jayden Daniels, and Stafford is still really good, you can take those two over him. But talks of the demise of Jalen Hurts have been greatly exaggerated. Dude is a baller.

Meh, not sure why it's so asinine. He's annoying as ****, and the Chiefs get the benefit of the whistle every game, but his numbers are great, he's got MVPs, he's got rings, and he's obviously super clutch.

He's the current generation's Brady/Montana, and in terms of pure talent, he's better. He's Aaron Rodgers if Aaron Rodgers wasn't a playoff choke artist and was actually a good leader.
