is Khalil Mack the most underrated player in the NFL?
Based on the last contract I wouldn't think so

True. But he doesn’t seem to get the respect in the media that Donald or Miller get. And I’d argue that Mack is better than either of them.

I'd put him below Donald, but above Miller

I think he’s more valuable than Donald because he’s an edge rusher and it’s a passing league. Edge rusher is just more valuable than a nose tackle ever could be just by the simple fact that he can rush the passer far more frequently and affect the passing game far more. 

I’ve never seen Donald completely disrupt an entire passing offense by putting non-stop pressure on the edge like I’ve seen Mack do. And Mack has done it on several prime time games where he’s just lived in the backfield and disrupted the passing game all game long. 

Mack is also the only player to be named All-NFL at two different positions in the same season- LB and DE. 

If I have to pick one, I’m picking Mack.

Is it just me, or does it seem like CFB, with larger rosters, more teams, and without large game checks on the line each week for players, is doing better regarding COVID than the NFL?

Universities have more control of a roster of 100 college kids than NFL teams do of 53 millionaires grown men.

I dunno a lot of college games have been moved.  But colleges (well, some of them) realized that was going to happen and structured the schedules in a way that could accommodate that.  I'm worried about the B1G plan

Why would you make Alex Smith make his return against Aaron Donald?

Lions drafted this guy last year,and waived him twice.  Not that WR is the issue, but still

Dak just snapped his ankle in half. That was grotesque.

Dak Prescott out with a pretty gruesome looking injury
