Hey Chris and Ahmed! I hope you enjoyed your little break, the homies and I sure am glad to have you back. I’m seeing these amazing QBs from NFL history grips being broken down on the last pod, but not one has been the purest spinner of all-time. Could you break down the grip of the legend Warren Moon and where would he rank for you as far as the pure spinners of the rock in NFL history? Love the pod, Go Hawks! ps Bonus question; If the NFL brought back the old school 1980s style NFL Fastest Man competition, who would win between undefeated 4x champion Darrell Green and the Cheetah Tyreek Hill?

I did meet Riq Woolen last summer and asked him if he could beat Darrell Green in a race, he said yes confidently enough that I am confident he had no idea who I was talking about! I’m kidding, he did say he was faster and I did hit him with “but it’s Darrell Green though?” We had a good chuckle about it.

Damn Chris used to be the dude highest on Lamar Jackson now he’s gonna put Stroud (who is really good but 1 year) and Williams over the 2x mvp for the next 5 years? Crazy.

What everyone forgets about him is other than andrews and him getting zay last year he’s just been throwing to a bunch of 3s his whole career so far.

@GeeWhiz77 Ай бұрын

Dude no other QB has had to do more with less. Lamar STILL has yet to throw to a #1 receiver. He just last year got a potential #2 in Zay Flowers. He single-handedly put the offense on his back to win games. His Oline is trash. Stanley is an injured train wreck. Give Lamar weapons and watch him cook. It's laughable to see a 2 time MVP (1 unanimous) get placed behind Allen who has done NOTHING. No conference championships or MVP's and he's had top tier weapons. Burrow only has success when LAMAR IS INJURED. Lamar owns Burrow head to head. It's just laughable these goofy ass lists.

Who?? Our top rusher was...LAMAR with 850 yds and next was Edwards at 800. We had RB by committee because our RBs were not elite. 3 Top TEs?? Dude what are you on? Andrews was hurt most of the season and had 500 yds and the next TE was Likely with just over 400 yds. There wasn't even a 3rd TE worth mentioning. Yeah our defense was elite but our Oline was GARBAGE. Like I said he has had to do MORE with LESS. Whether you want to admit it or not. It's facts bro. You can make up stats but it's us who actually read the stat lines and watch the actual games who know better. And when you have to resort to using a kicker as proof of your argument, you've already lost. Try again. 😂

@TylerHolt-n5q 22 күн бұрын

@@GeeWhiz77 Settle down buddy, I'm referring to career. I guess we'll all just keep imagining him going from an efficient player in the regular season to one who has twice has many turnovers as tds in the playoffs. That's all fake and he hasn't had multiple opportunities. Stop the more with less narrative. The players were the same when he won the mvps as he lost with in the playoffs. Having a top 5 defense alone is enough for a real mvp qb.

@GeeWhiz77 22 күн бұрын

Dude I proved my point. I'm not going back and forth with you. He doesn't have weapons and has to do it all. He takes all the credit AND the blame. Facts are he doesn't have a #1 and just got a#2 after 6 seasons. No active QB can claim a SB win besides Mahomes or Stafford so it doesn't matter in the end if you aren't raising a Lombardi. You raising all these other points besides what I said. He does more with less. Period.

@@UShouldLaugh right. I know it's not malicious but something might be wrong with your formula when top players that most lead directly to winning are graded as average. Pff is nice for linemen grades but the problem is with a lot of it is they can't calculate difficulty of throws for qbs and don't understand responsibilities of players on certain plays such as defenders who are directed to stay in zones. I just don't like when people reference them as end all be all.

How was Josh Allen working with less than Mahomes?? People keep making this point but Allen literally had a #1 receiver who could take the top off the defense in Stefon Diggs, even if his production fell off when they changed OCs, plus Khalil Shakir and Dalton Kincaid were fairly reliable when targeted. Travis Kelce isn't that kind of deep threat, as a lot of his catches are in the intermediate range of the field, and he was covered well a lot because of injuries so the only viable alternative was Rashee Rice, who was a great YAC machine but not a downfield pass catcher. Saying Allen did more with less is straight up gaslighting. Actually, scratch that, it's throwing a match at the freakin' Hindenburg.

Penalizing QBs because they have good coaches is definitely my least favorite trend of the last few years. The QBs still have to execute these offenses. Usually with accuracy and timing (which Simms has never seemed to respect much). If Shanahan is responsible for so much of Purdy's success, why was Lance traded away? Wouldn't a more physically gifted athlete thrive in such an easy to execute plug and play offense? Or maybe Purdy should get a little more credit for translating stuff from the white board to the actual field. Also, he straight up lied when he said he appreciates QBs who take what is given. The dude talks shit on slants all the time. Lmao.

@Joel-brody Ай бұрын

Purdy was BY FAR the most efficient QB in the league last year. Some of his advanced stats were top 5 all-time among all QB seasons. That can't be all system and play-makers. Yes, some missed throws - Still was the most efficient. Tape doesn't lie sometimes. I don't think he's top 6, but I do believe he's top 10. His career QB rating is 111. Insane.
