Unsportsmanlike Conduct

[27mtrcougar]

Actually part of the reason is because we hung onto to a QB that wasn't all that for too long!!!

but now it looks like we didn't hang on long enough and he's only 29

 

[Smed55]

Some of you don't like all this Sammy talk and it is utterly ridiculous, but I actually enjoy bashing Cougs comments, as Ive said doesn't take much effort at all, its just to dam easy!!

 

[Smed55]

Well do teams just give away starting QB's??

Evidently!!!

 

[Smed55]

but now it looks like we didn't hang on long enough and he's only 29

No it doesn't at all, you need to wipe that goo from your eyes

I don't care how good you "think" Sammy is, he would have done nothing here!!!

 

[27mtrcougar]

Evidently!!!

your ass. they do not. Foles was thought to be a good QB at the time. why else would we do it?

and thats why the Vikes had to give up a first because they weren't giving up a player

 

[LongtimeRamsFan42]

but if you want to look at it your way I guess his value is going up.

Again, a coach(Gruden) was MUCH more valuable than your boy and the trade proved it!!! A COACH!!!

 

[LongtimeRamsFan42]

your ass. they do not. Foles was thought to be a good QB at the time. why else would we do it?

and thats why the Vikes had to give up a first because they weren't giving up a player

Wait, I thought you were Mr. Respectability? And now you say "your ass"??? Talk about the pot calling the kettle black!!!

 

[Smed55]

your ass. they do not. Foles was thought to be a good QB at the time. why else would we do it?

oh so your saying they gave up a QB for a QB, no they don't give them away, of course you get something for something, Obviously Eagles were dumb to give up more than they should have, but they really did not want Foles so they did what they had to do, just goes to prove my point that there are clueless teams out there!

Oh and lets leave my ass out of this , I don't swing that way, not that theres anything wrong with that, you like what you like?

 

[Smed55]

3 teams in 3 years, that's considered a journeyman QB, and that journey will not end up in the HOF like you thought after his rookie year and you still may think that way. that journey may never even end up with a playoff appearance, but well done Sammy, well done

Aaron Rodgers was the top-ranked quarterback at midseason, and he only pulled further away over the second half of the campaign. His Week 16 outing against Minnesota was the best performance of any quarterback all year, and his 300-yard, four-touchdown game against Detroit in Week 17 wasn't far off. Rodgers may not win the MVP—he can thank his receivers for that—but he deserves it more than any other signal-caller.

The likely MVP winner at this point appears to be Atlanta's Matt Ryan, whose numbers have been inflated by an outstanding supporting cast. Julio Jones has been brilliant when available, but more importantly, coordinator Kyle Shanahan's play-calling—combined with an impressive offensive line and pair of great running backs—has put Ryan in position to throw from wide-open pockets of space into wide-open pockets of space. Ryan was also lucky with bad throws that could (or should) have been interceptions.

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady didn't play until the fifth game of the season, but since making his debut, he has been consistently impressive. Though Brady hasn't played at the peak of his powers like in previous seasons, he consistently stood out against weaker opposition. His best game of the year his 406-yard, three-touchdown outing against the Ravens, even though he had one terrible interception.

Sam Bradford's 2015 season with the Philadelphia Eagles was a battle over the first eight games or so, as he struggled to set his feet coming off the second ACL tear of his career. A last-minute trade to the Minnesota Vikings heading into 2016 threatened to disrupt his preparation once again, but Bradford was a stud. Playing behind the worst pass-blocking line in the league with unreliable receivers and often problematic play-calling, Bradford consistently threw receivers open while playing against pressure. Despite those less-than-ideal conditions, he led the league in completion percentage and rarely put the ball at risk of being intercepted.

Injuries also adversely affected Seattle's Russell Wilson in 2016. During the first half of the season, he had multiple lower-body ailments that prevented him from setting his feet comfortably or being his usual elusive self behind the line of scrimmage. Wilson had some great stretches of play this year, but his season as a whole was marred by not being 100 percent.

In the same NFC West division as Wilson, Los Angeles Rams rookie Jared Goff proved to be a disaster, while the player selected immediately after him, Philadelphia's Carson Wentz, wasn't that much better.

Dallas' Dak Prescott outshone both players, as although he has obvious flaws in his ball placement and doesn't offer the same value Tony Romo does, he has consistently done enough to help the Cowboys win. It hasn't all just been the offensive line, either. Prescott's acumen to diagnose coverages and change plays, combined with his poise, has made him an extremely valuable player in Dallas.

Hey did you see where it said Sam was a Stud?

 

[LongtimeRamsFan42]

Hey did you see where it said Sam was a Stud?

Yup, some unknown/uncredited jerkoff twisted the stats the way they wanted, I could do the same!!! 5-0 and misses the playoffs with the #2 defense in the NFL... That's a joke!!! One of the only teams in NFL history to tank like that...

"Studs" make the playoffs and don't use excuses as to why they fail. Good QB's LEAD their team to victory, they don't start 5-0 and collapse when the pressure is on like he did vs Detroit...All I hear from you and Sadford are excuses...

As i've said, he joined 2 winning playoff teams and turned them into losers. Quite an accomplishment!!!!

 

[LongtimeRamsFan42]

Let's also remember some of the "beauts" that you have quoted in the past few days...Like the one idiot who couldn't properly spell offensive line? Sorry, it's not Offense Of Line, jeez...

 

[Smed55]

I can't understand all these people that cover the NFL have such a different outlook on Bradford then a few in here?

Then we are finally in agreement, I can't understand it either!

 

[Smed55]

It's from B/R dah

I'm sure you meant "duh" but even if you did, how are we suppose to know that you didn't rightist, you. Didn't give B/R the credit?

As far as Bleacher Report. They suck, even if they didn't you didn't quite catch the part where Rodgers was the most accurate passer, shouldn't Sammy be with his unbelievably high percentage of 3 yard passes. Then they said He had unreliable receivers, GTFO, total BS!

 

[Smed55]

Dan Marino didn't make the playoffs often or the Super Bowl, yet he put Up huge numbers, which gave his teams chances to win, Sammy puts up decent numbers but doesn't give his teams chances to win, you have to look no further than his 6, that's right 6, 4th quarter comebacks in SEVEN YEARS, stafford had that many this year alone!
