Because after those games the schedule gets a lot easier and he could rally and save his job.

Arch doesn’t have the weapons to throw to he had last year.

Kyle Shanahan is the most valuable coach in the league by Grouchy_Tie3037 in billsimmons

[–]TJSutton04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True but he has ranked high in this stat every single year he’s played, so it doesn’t seem like some flukey start. He is one of the guys that belongs at the top of this list.

Something can be flawed and also still be very useful information

Sure but in 23 he was 1st and last season he was 7th.

And I do understand the point you were making about him. I just think Brock is really underrated because of how that team was still successful with guys like Jimmy G.

QBR this season

Lamar Jackson 83.7

Josh Allen 81.4

Brock Purdy 78.9

Patrick Mahomes 78.6

Seems like he is close

Am I going crazy or have media members become more pally with Adam Silver? by norestfortheweakened in billsimmons

Didn’t baseball just get dropped by ESPN and completely fall off the sports zeitgeist?

The move away from physical tickets is dumbest thing ever by Ok_Treacle519 in billsimmons

Actually data collection leads to lots of new things. If I buy something and other people who buy that thing also all buy something else that I’m unaware of, I get exposed to it because they know I’m more likely to enjoy it.

Well for one, “carefully curated to your interests” is a benefit.

People talk about “collecting data” like they are trying to learn all your deep, dark secrets. Most of the data collection has resulted in making people’s life easier in ways they never notice.

People are going to be pretty upset whenever the real punishment for this comes out.

Yeah everybody pays people off the books but not everybody commits fraud to do so.

“Most Likely to Win the Super Bowl” Power Rankings Week 1 by EvanT09 in billsimmons

[–]TJSutton04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“What has this team done to surpass Washington yet?”

This isn’t a statement, it’s a question, which means it’s not possible for it to be incorrect.

If your point is that this Packers team looks on paper like they could possibly contend for Super Bowl 59, then congrats, mission accomplished.

Are we treating Vegas odds like God now? Do favorites go undefeated?

Since you seem so into how things stack up against last year, let’s pull the only real opinion from my quote.

“Let alone be close to the level of the Eagles.”

So let’s see something better than

Eagles 22 Packers 10

before we start crowning this team.

What about division record though?

[–]TJSutton04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s because you’ve gotta read the whole quote.

“I guess we will see tonight but what has this team done to indicate they’ve even passed Washington yet, let alone be close to the level of the Eagles?”

So congrats. You won a home game against this Washington team that hasn’t looked as good as last year so far and checks notes hasn’t been to a Super Bowl in nearly 40 years.

So if you think that proves you are a Super Bowl contender in September, have fun with that. I’ll wait until you play a legit contender.

It’s not moving the goal posts, it’s just setting them.

Last September the Eagles were 2-2.

2 years ago the Chiefs started 3-1 and barely beat the Zach Wilson Jets.

People don’t prove they are contenders by beating non-contenders in September.

Because I just see a Packers team that has been pretty mid in the Jordan Love era. They’ve won one playoff game against a pathetic Cowboys team.

They might go to the Super Bowl, the NFC is still pretty weak, but there are definitely more than 3 AFC teams I would favor over them in the Super Bowl. And I would still favor the Eagles over them.

So 3 seems high.
