I would pick him over Antwine, who is on the ballot.

Brooks had great sack totals. But are people burned out on Rams defensive line?
Antwine was inducted to the HOVG last year in 2023.

Re: Purdy's draft position

Doesnt a team who makes minority hires in coaching and management also get compensatory picks? What a year for Purdy. He probably wishes he could have had the first thirteen minutes of that SB third quarter back but he kept giving the lead back to SF ... the defense, missing Greenlaw, couldnt seal ...

Re: 2023/24 Super Bowl

Here's my dream match-up for SB 59, now that the media has already decided on the 3-peat story line..... The Detroit Lions, finally making their first-ever SB appearance, vs the Chiefs, looking to be the first to win 3 straight SB. Might not even need a romance angle. I still find it odd that only ...

Re: JOE NAMATH vs LEN DAWSON

Dawson definitely had a stronger defense behind him. Six of KC's players were inducted to the Hall of Fame: Buck Buchannon, Emmitt Thomas, Bobby Bell, Willie Lanier, Curly Culp, Johnny Robinson.

Re: Purdy's draft position

There are compensatory selections/JC resolution picks added beginning at the end of the third round, which effectively adds selections to the draft. The number of compensatory/resolution picks varies from year-to-year.

Re: Divisional Playoff Weekend

With Jim Harbaugh in LA, I hope he gets Derrick Henry despite playing on field turf. Henry needs a chance with an offense that has potential. Will he persuade Ekeler to stay? Heading into 2024, the Chargers are roughly $45 million over the salary cap. That does not include re-signing players like E...

Re: NFLPA All-Pro team

TJ Watt should have been selected over Garrett. Watt has more sacks (19 vs 17), the most QB hits in the league (36), and tackles for loss (19 vs 17) than Garrett.

Re: George Kittle HOF Future?

I'm not big on commenting about current player chances at HOVG, HOF... but I think health is the top factor for Kittle. Can he stay healthy? Also, can San Francisco maintain its offensive prowess? Because Kittle is a big part. If both hold true over the next 4-5 years, it could be enough for him.

Re: 104th season, Week 17 recap

I still cant believe the Bears could win 8 games this year and spoil the Packers playoff chances. If they win, they may not try for Williams in the draft after all ... Big If A better choice for Chicago might be Marvin Harrison, Jr. He would give Fields a solid target to compliment DJ Moore. IMO th...
