NFL 2020 NFL - Wild Card Weekend

He isnt in the spotlight so people voters wont put him in. Like how they keep passing over Leroy Butler.

Manning and Woodson are up and locks.
Megatron or Reggie Wayne who might get in because they always seem to put 3 first year players

 

[AmericanCrow]

He deserves to get in

I trust Tony and Mary Kay will get him in

It is a lot of politicking in that room

Everyone knows Leap deserves to be in, but keeps getting knocked back for lesser players. I fear he will be forgotten about till he is in his 80's like Jerry Kramer.

Because not everything is about the Browns and Packers p), here are the rest of the HoF semifinalists in case anyone is interested

Very hard to get in with that class

 

[offtherails9]

CBS are considering having Romo call the Bears/Saints game from home

That's crap.

Herbie was shocking from home on the weekend. Not the same.

Well then perhaps he shouldnt of caught Covid.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports there were no new positives for the Browns in Tuesday's round of COVID-19 testing.
The Browns didn't have any high risk close contacts after coach Kevin Stefanski and two players tested positive. They'll do a virtual walkthrough Wednesday but should return to their practice facility later this week. Special Teams coordinator Mike Priefer will act as the head coach for Sunday night's Wild Card matchup with the Steelers. Offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt is expected to call plays.

Part of what makes the greats great is how they perform against fellow greats. It's what they live for. Consider that when seeing a precocious Chase Young calling out Tom Brady while sauntering off the field this past weekend following a playoff-clinching victory.

Young is only a rookie, but after watching Brady his whole life -- not hyperbole, with Young being 21 and Brady in his 21st season -- he's probably been yearning for this meeting for years. The Buccaneers quarterback, in response to Young's "I want Tom!" declaration, was more diplomatic in discussing his team's upcoming matchup with Washington (7-9) on Saturday night.

"He is obviously a great young player and we have our hands full with that (defensive) line," Brady said Wednesday.

Not one to provide bulletin board material yet happy to engage in humor, Brady offered an alternative explanation for Young's eagerness to get after him.

"He went to Ohio State, so I think that Ohio State-Michigan thing wears off on him a little bit," said Brady, a Michigan product.

Young also addressed the media Wednesday, for the first time since his soundbite heard ‘round the world.

Despite Bruce Arians' warning earlier in the week to "watch what you wish for," the star pass rusher doubled down on his desire to play Brady and the favored Bucs (11-5).

"I'm excited for every game. Tom Brady? You think I won't be excited to play against the G.O.A.T? You trippin'," Young said. "I'm not going to apologize for saying I want Tom."

Strong words from someone playing in their first postseason, especially about someone who's played in nine Super Bowls. But if Young is truly going to be super, what he says will matter much less than what he does.

Like Young -- and Brady, for that matter -- we can't wait for Saturday.

Hopefully they can get to Brady during the game. Only hope they have. Sounds like your man Heineken might get some snaps GG. Smith isnt gonna get it done. Him against the Bucs rush worries me too.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

I'm starting to come round to Washington being a live chance. The two teams that made Brady look silly during the season were the Bears and Saints via pass rush. If Arians gets too pass happy I can absolutely see Washington's line causing havoc in a similar fashion.

Bucs have to get Rojo over 100 yards rushing. This isn't the week for Tom to prove he can still throw for 300+ yards in a playoff game. Time of possession will be the key to this game.

Get on that Heinicke Train....limited seats

Get on that Heinicke Train....limited seats

Antonio Gibson is the key offensive player for Washington. If he can get going early it will help Smith no end.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Brees only threw for 160 yards and two TDs when the Saints murdered the Bucs by 30+ ....just goes to show, Smith doesn't need to do a heap if the defense shows up.

 

[aussiedude]

The washington D will get flagged for unnecessary roughness, breathing on Brady in a pandemic 15yds and Young is ejected.

 

[Exe Gesis]

Tom Brady has a losing record against Alex Smith. If you didnt know

Taylor Heinicke to majority of first team reps. Ron Rivera sounded pessimistic about Smith's status, saying he wished he had another day to get healthy.

 

[aussiedude]

Tom Brady has a losing record against Alex Smith. If you didnt know

The Football Team has never lost a playoff game

Tom Brady has also never beat a NFC team in the playoffs in January.

If DeShaun wants out and the Texans want draft picks, I'd be willing to put Zach Wilson on the backburner.

If DeShaun wants out and the Texans want draft picks, I'd be willing to put Zach Wilson on the backburner.

His contract is like Wentz, new money doesnt start till the new league year. you need to take like $60m dead money to move him on. but in 2023 its down to $10m

 

[Exe Gesis]

Those stats for Watson are surreal

 

[aussiedude]

If DeShaun wants out and the Texans want draft picks, I'd be willing to put Zach Wilson on the backburner.

I just noticed the thumbnail has him at the Bears.

Wasnt there some interview or something where he said the Bears didnt have any contact with him before the draft?
If the went with Watson then they would of won the Superbowl in 2018. because that D was insane, everything they did worked. but the stats were not sustainable.
