I can picture Belichek wearing his hoodie while watching the Bucs game this weekend.
Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are dumber than that.

Derrick Henry only got 47 out of 50 1st team All-Pro votes and this is one of the jokers’ reasoning.

Re: NFL Playoffs - Wild Card Round
Sometimes, it actually is just a really simple formula. 2,000+ yards, 5.4 yards per carry, 17 rushing TD's on a playoff team = 1st Team everything. It easily passes every test. No need to dig any further to find the deep dark hole of advanced metrics.gaskill15 wrote:Derrick Henry only got 47 out of 50 1st team All-Pro votes and this is one of the jokers’ reasoning.
I'd like to think some of these guys do it just to get attention, but I don't think that's the case here. I think he believes it.
Re: NFL Playoffs - Wild Card Round
He's on the best 20 game stretch of any RB in NFL history.....but he doesn't catch the ball well out of the backfield so he doesn't get that guy's vote!manchild98 wrote:

Not to mention he's doing this in a pass happy league with a 3rd string LT and a back up quality RT.

Re: NFL Playoffs - Wild Card Round
I think if Kamara had came close to the total yards I see the case but despite having so many receiving yards he still finished well behind him in total yards.

Honestly I didn’t realize Kamara had 21 total TDs. He had a better year than I thought. That being said those TDs are inflated a bit getting 6 against a JV Vikings defense.elmerjfudd wrote:I think if Kamara had came close to the total yards I see the case but despite having so many receiving yards he still finished well behind him in total yards.

Jim Brown got 1863 yards in 14 games in the 1963 season, averaging 6.4 yards a carry. Not as many touchdowns, but stil mind boggling.gaskill15 wrote:He's on the best 20 game stretch of any RB in NFL history.....but he doesn't catch the ball well out of the backfield so he doesn't get that guy's vote!manchild98 wrote:

They have similarities. Brown was a 235 running back who was also extremely fast who could run over you or around you a lot like Henry. If you had a magic Delorean and could have transported Brown to this era, he probably would have been playing at around 255 pounds and faster than most defensive backs.

Yep I’ve seen a lot of comparisons from Jim Brown to Eric Dickinson. Just straight up freaks of nature.vcsgrizzfan wrote:Jim Brown got 1863 yards in 14 games in the 1963 season, averaging 6.4 yards a carry.

I’m literally the first one who made picks and the only one left out of official tally.

After the first 4 games, the road team is 3-1 straight up and 3-1 against the spread (ATS loss was by 1/2 a point).
