    “I’m going to tell you one of the things that really surprised me with Anthony because I was concerned about it, but this guy is a passer. We all kind of — because here’s this big talented athlete. 

     

    IMO, doesn't need to be said and I also would NOT spend a number 1 pick on a QB if I'm concerned about him being a passer?

     

    Every player had concerns. The concern for stroud was not his passing, it was his ability to grasp bigger concepts at the nfl level, by all accounts. Little man Young's was just that, his size. Richardson's was his accuracy (not his arm) and it was due to being so raw. Of course he was concerned about his passing. That was his only knock. He's admitting he was concerned and thought it would take time to develop, and he doesn't think that anymore.

    Ballard still scares me. I can't believe he admitted he was surprised by AR passing ability. This was the guy Ballard would have taken with the number 1 pick and he was surprised by how good of a passer AR was? That could imply Steichen had more to do with who we picked than Ballard.

     

    He said he was concerned about his passing, which he didn't have much film to base it off of. Why is that shocking? They drafted him on his potential and his athleticism. He had as strong of an arm coming out of college as has been for some time. He Stroud and Levis all did. They had one season essentially to base it off and there were known concerns with his accuracy, by every source you can find. 

     

    I think Ballard's comments regarding AR's throwing is good to hear. They are pleased with where he is, and they believe Steichen will continue to coach and groom him into a legitimate dual-threat weapon.

    Agreed. Week 6 I get it... This the championship game. Extend that lead.


    they gave the momentum back. They literally gift wrapped it. You have to extend that lead. It’s a play away from a tied football game with 20 minutes left to play.

    This. 
     

    It’s not even about professionalism. If I’m playing music on shift, I can’t hear and understand the radio. I. Love. Music. But I never play music on shift.


    maybe the officers that filed the report didn’t hear the dispatch tell them it wasn’t an overdose…

    In 20 years, I'm not sure anyone will look back on the current AFC and think it was loaded, especially compared to the 2000s or 1970s AFC.  2023 was a pretty lackluster year in the AFC, really.


    They will if the chiefs keep winning superbowls. They are grinding out postseason wins like it is easy… 

     

    it would be easy to look back at the afc and say, man those teams could have been in the superbowl but they had to go through the chiefs

    I’d like to see someone besides the Chiefs, but I’d MUCH rather have the Chiefs than the Patriots. 
     

    Watching the Patriots suck now makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. 


     

    give it another decade and I bet you change your tone.

    That’s nice and respect your family for their service.  It doesn’t change the fact there is no credible source to support the idea these officers didn’t do their job once they arrived.  


    im not sure anyone has stated they didn’t do their jobs… 

     

    the department could have released a report that stated while the offers initially suspected overdose, there was no evidence of that being the case. 
     

    they did not. And they did not provide enough in the report to alter my opinion that there was evidence of a drug overdose, aside from it being known by the department who the individual was…

    My dad was an IPD officer.  I have a brother that was an IPD officer.  I have several classmates that are officers.  Having music playing on your way to a call isn't a thing.   If they are communicating with dispatch on the radio, music playing would be an issue.   It seems unprofessional at best


    it’s very unprofessional. It wasn’t just playing music it was blasting it and the dashboard was all over the internet. 
     

    the fact that the other officers weren’t playing anything speaks volumes.

    Maybe,  just maybe all the facts aren't known.   Maybe they did the right thing maybe they didn't.   Was blasting a Taylor Swift song the right thing to do on the way to an non responsive person?


    before anyone responds to that, it should be known that the other officers that showed up did not have music on at all according to their dash cam. 
     

    the whole thing is a clown show in my opinion. Little chance Irsay doesn’t make comments if/when he recovers.

    Welp. Calling it now - if the Ravens don’t hold the Chief to 3 at most now it’s game. 
     

    Yes it’s early, but there’s blood in the water now and the Chiefs are absolute killers in the playoffs. 


    they are rolling that’s for sure. Momentum is a funny thing though. Can flip on a dime. 

  11. I would like to see a ravens-lions Super Bowl. Not anything against the 49ers, I think they are a very good team and I would put all of my betting money on them winning today. I just would like to see it for Detroit fans. 
     

    The ravens-chiefs game is an interesting game to me. I agree with @chad72 that it could be a double digit win, but if I were betting on games today, I would avoid it. Just because I cannot bring myself to think Lamar is going to beat Pat Mahomes. Should be a good game. 
     

    I would love to see classic down to the wire games today. I really don’t care who wins, I just don’t want to watch bad football, and I don’t expect to today.
