I didn't watch it either, just curious if one had their opinions. Twitter was going to be pissed regardless so wanted a non ZOMG HOUSE IS ON FIRE take.

This is the first non OMG JIMMY G IS A HOF PLAYER take I have seen, “On Garoppolo:

I’ve never been a huge fan. There are certainly some positive traits. Garoppolo has a live arm and can whistle it into tight spaces on short and intermediate throws. He does not lack for confidence. He’s also incredibly good-looking and a decent athlete. But when he’s under pressure his most natural comparison is Brandon Weeden. Everything good goes out the window, save his handsomeness. It was obvious in New England’s preseason games. It was obvious when he played for Tom Brady last year before Jimmy G got hurt…which is another recurring theme for him.”

Risdon sucks, but I'll take it after a brutal couple of weeks.

He led the entire NFL in passer rating when he played for Brady last year, so not sure I️ agree with him that he was “Brandon Weeden when pressured”

Maybe he wasn’t great under pressure (who is?) but I️ doubt he was as bad as Risdon is making it seem.

Yeah for sure. Risdon also sounds he really wants to bang the guy, but not call him back.

Jason La Canfora‏Verified account @JasonLaCanfora

It was not lost on some w/ Browns, during course of McCarron talks, that Jackson could end up back in Cincy in '18, w/ that 2nd and 3rd

Typical La Canfora

As you all know, I'm leading the Baker Mayfield hype train so far this season. Seems like draftniks are starting to follow:

Also this brought some lulz:
The Saints cut OL John Greco today to make room for DT John Hughes.

I'm on the fence with him. I think he could be really good but his height and o don't think he has the absolute strongest arm concern me a little but the kid is johnny manziel with a work ethic and no drug problem lol

Interview with Gordon yesterday had me rolling. They asked him his goal and he said something to the effect of "I want to be the greatest WR of ALL time. That's ALWAYS been my goal."

Really, dumbass? I don't recall some of the greatest WR's of all time (Rice, Moss...although he could be a problem child, etc, etc) missing 3/4th's+ of their early career to drug issues. Yeah, you're really locked in/focused on that GOAT goal. lol

Obviously he means going forward in his career he wants to be an all time WR. He’s still very young.

I️ wouldn’t call him a dumbass for having high hopes for his future.

On top of that, if he came in and said I'd love to have the career of Kevin Johnson he'd be killed for that as well.

I'd put Andre "bad tennis shoes are burning" Rison above them all.

You might actually have them in order.

Better to say something like "I want to be the player people thought I was going to be".
