Unless Jeanty went somewhere completely insane like the Falcons, Lions or Jets, the answer is Jeanty.

Weird career so far. Bouncing back and forth between Rams and Kentucky. The two rams OC's before him, O'Connell and LaFluer, became successful HCs and then he left that job for his old job as OC at Kentucky? Them he spends a year in Tampa. He leverages the Jax job to get Tampa to offer him the...

But you don't give Tomlin credit for beating the ravens consistently over the past 5 years? He's the big constant over the past 5.

Steelers feel like they are stuck in a cycle since Ben left. The roster has a lot of holes but a solid defense and Tomlin gets a 7-8 win team to 9-10 wins. They make the playoffs when they probably don't deserve it, then they lose in the first round to a superior team. They end up with the 20th...

The conversation really comes down to what do you think Siriani contributes. Vic Fangio runs the defense which is loaded with talent. Jeff Stoutland is widely considered one of the best offensive line coaches in the NFL and may be primarily responsible for the run game success. Kellen Moore is...

This is pretty bad take, Lamar was never a one read QB. Lamar's issues as a passer were his poor fundamentals that led to wildly inconsistent accuracy. Reading a defense hasn't been the issue for him. He's actually at an elite level of processing defenses. (source Tom Brady). His leap as a...

When Lamar was breaking out early a loud narrative was that teams would figure him out when they got more tape on him. That's a regular thing in this league, some players pop and then struggle. I'm not saying that Daniels is going to regress but putting him on Lamar's level at this point is...

Even with Etienne hurt, Bigsby is only seeing 66% of the snaps over the past two weeks. This could very easily be a 50/50 time share that makes both players difficult to trust.

Bad teams with holes everywhere on the roster drafting RBs isn't rare. Teams want to take pressure off their young QB and "get back to running the ball" and draft Jonathan Brooks when Chubba was a bright spot on the roster. They overpay Swift when Herbert/Roshon combo looked ok. I don't think...

I don't understand why he just didn't run all game. He was consistently getting pressured and it looked like was waiting to be sacked to prove a point.

Weird game. I don't think Aiyuk even looked that bad. He drew a lot of attention which led to Jennings going off for 175 and 3. Jennings also played out of his mind so Purdy kept going to him.

Teams also can only return 8 players from IR. Better not to burn a spot if he has a chance at being back earlier. Probably why Kupp isn't on IR, Rams are gonna need all 8.

I'm worried about Kincaid and all the Bills pass catchers. Long gone is the Daboll 4-wide high flying offense. McDermott is going to turn this into a ball control, run heavy team if it kills him. I think Allen will be fine for fantasy due to his rushing upside but this offense overall is going...

I can't see how its not Edwards. I know he's boring but he's been productive for Roman before. He had 5 ypc every year he was in Roman's system. Dobbins injury history is extensive and they gave him almost no money. He's a longshot to even make the team. Vidal might get worked in more as the...

With some exceptions (Mahomes, running QBs like Lamar and Allen) it is becoming clear that you need two legit receiving options to be a top tier offense in the NFL. Playmakers that can produce when the opponent sells out to stop your 1. Mahomes skews SB data but if we look at conference...
