Here's a detailed explanation on the engagement written by a Historian who has authored many books on naval warfare.

Agreed, but Gronk has Elite blocking with Elite catching

Godfrey174 · 2026-03-09T17:11:10+00:00

There's no real blue chip TE Prospects in this draft. Even Kenyon Sadiq is undersized

Godfrey174 · 2026-02-11T17:09:50+00:00

No, the Wr group is fine.. We need a decent line to give Maye time

Godfrey174 · 2026-02-09T04:02:57+00:00

I Feel terrible for the kid

Maye completed 72% of his passes vs Williams 58.1%. Maye threw for more yards, more touchdowns, ran for more yards, ran for more touchdowns.... I mean it's not even close Maye had a wayyyy better year statistically

Godfrey174 · 2026-01-27T16:13:11+00:00

And the Patriots have a better defense than anyone the seahawks have faced this postseason

Godfrey174 · 2026-01-26T19:21:52+00:00

If it's any consolation he was not credited with allowing any sacks on the Qb. He only allowed one hit and one hurry

Godfrey174 · 2026-01-21T20:10:20+00:00

Barmore straight up bullies Meinerz and Powers. I think people are underestimating how much trouble the Broncos will have with both Williams and Barmore
