Eagles are going to be really good for awhile. And it's so annoying. Giants were absolutely fucking retarded to give Daniel fucking Jones $180 million and let Saquon Barkley walk for nothing. If I am the owner of the Giants I am firing everyone right now and there is zero shot in hell I'd ever let someone as fucking awesome as Barkley ever leave the team.

Great moogely-googley, I'm sure the Chiefs prioritized him freeing others up

don't be surprised when Barkley doesn't get 100 yards

I replied, don't be surprised when the eagles put up 40

I didn't see it coming, but when I saw how it was happening, I wasn't surprised that the Chiefs couldn't turn things around.  

Utter domination on the lines is something I'm more accustomed to in college than the NFL, but occasionally it happens.  Only other SB I recall that in was the Seahawks over Denver for the 2013 season.  Mahomie, like Peyton back then, never had a chance to try to get a play going.  Their lines were just utterly whipped forwards and backwards.  

Mostly backwards.

That's what I said.  It looked like Georgia vs. a buy opponent.

The difference between those two Super Bowls, is Mahomes is great at extending plays and still finding guys downfield.  Manning was never great at that, and that Denver team was post neck surgery.  Mahomes frequently made a guy miss, but it was just wave after wave, even when they didn't blitz.

I generally agree, BUT he wasn't awesome with the Giants before leaving.  3.9 ypc and a long of 36 yards.  You can blame the blocking and/or play-calling, etc, and you'd be right, but if he was sucking with them, what's the big tragedy?

The way the NFL is now, I think the running game has clearly made a comeback.  but in the sense that you can't be a great team without a great running back, but a great running back is wasted on a bad team.  He's not going to elevate them

Saquon was an awesome player for the Giants his first two years in the leauge, got injured in his 3rd and was slow to bounce back in his 4th and dealt with injury but his 5th year he was back to being awesome. No doubt he had a down year to his standards his 6th and final year in New York but that entire team absolutely fucking sucked. Guy literally had no o-line, no QB, no play-makers out wide to help him out. Saquon wasn't the problem. Everyone else was. That's when it should've been a hint to get rid of everyone else and build around Saquon.
