If we're talking about players whose prime was wasted you start with Drew Brees who was saddled with literally the worst defenses in league history. There was a season they gave away 7000 yards (that's not a typo)

That Texans coach and DC need to be fired before the end of the game though. Great as Mahomes is you still shouldn't turn a 24 point lead to a 20 point deficit

Khanben:
Rodgers was that good the packers just had the wrong GM for most of his prime. I remember watching an interview from one of the veteran D-line men who was cut after Rodgers won his first SB he said I am paraphrasing. The GM said they will build the defense from the draft and even if they are not good that Rodgers will carry them, and that stupid decision cost Rodgers his prime.
Imagine if the packers had chased FA through all these years the way they did this off season, Rodgers might have won more than 1.

Nope. Rodgers was never as good as this electricity I'm watching from Mahomes rn. I have seen all of Rodgers. From getting outplayed by old man Kurt Warner in his debut to his one magical run in 2011.

The next year nko? They went 15-1 in the regular season only to get torched by Eli Manning and the Giants at HOME!! After that na back to back L's to Colin Kaepernick of all people both home and away. Then he had the lead and couldn't seal it vs Seahawks. Blew a 16pt HT lead

Got outplayed by Carson Palmer, then completely got wrecked by the Falcons and Matt Ryan.

Don't get me started. I have a laundry list of Aaron Rodgers and his postseason chokejobs and under-performance

And please don't tell me he had no help. James Jones, Donald Driver, Greg Jennings, Jordy Nelson

And before you bring up the defense let me remind you that Tom Brady once took a 31st ranked defense (in yards) to the Superbowl.

Who are the free agents that the Patriots chased when they were winning all those SBs? This ain't the NBA, free agents guarantee you next to nothing more often than not.

Aaron Rodgers is overrated. There is no reason he shouldn't have made more than one Superbowl if he is as great as being purported. I've already seen enough of Mahomes to confidently tell you his peak is and will be higher than Aaron Rodgers, it will be on him to maximize it and looking at him today I wouldn't bet against him.

Patrick Mahomes is the best player in the league. The difference between him and Lamar Jackson we saw it today. You're watching the game and the minute Kansas scored the very first touchdown you knew the Chiefs were back in it despite needing 3 scores. You knew there was too much ball left to play. That's the difference between the Brady's, Mahomes and the rest. The inevitability, the fact that you know your lead is never safe

Khanben:
The Chiefs defense was crap last year and even at that it took Deford lining up offsides for the patriots to win (The patriots deserved the win, just pointing out the circumstances).
IMHO if the chiefs needs to continually invest in the O-line and their pass rush while Mahomes is still playing, they will be contenders each year.

In every game there are always circumstances involved. If Rashad Mendenhall didn't fumble that ball maybe Aaron Rodgers has 0 Superbowl wins by now

41-24. 6 unanswered touchdowns.

Khanben:
Assinn, 4 TD in a quarter. Patrick Mahomes just led drives that resulted in 5 TDs in 12 minutes let that sink in, if the chiefs can figure out a way to pay him without gutting their team on all 3 sides of the ball, they will win multiple SBs with him at QB ( injuries permitting).

The only way to beat Mahomes is to keep him off the field. I don't know how Tom Brady was able to do it last year. I keep hearing about Rodgers but Rodgers was never this good. After Tom Brady this kid is surely next in line

This man completed a 24 point comeback in a little over half a quarter

Ohh my Lord Patrick Mahomes. No lead is safe with this man. Ogini na fio

21-0 and still in the first quarter. The Chiefs are getting destroyed

Lool what's happening with the Chiefs!

Tundesam923:
i get. But it speaks to a certain lack of confidence In your QB when the team runs the football this much... 30 carries? The best teams are the ones who have always been able to do both! It shows a lot about your offense and how predictable it is...vrabel has been a doing a Phenomenal job with the play calling tho'. tannehill job has practically been- "get out of way and let henry cook, and maybe don't make a mistake". A game manager! And am trying to remember when a team has won a super bowl with a Qb like that in this era. Joe flacco? He was cold as ice in their 2012 superbowl... 11 touchdowns, no picks.

You're overreacting here. They led the entirety of the game which made it unnecessary to require any type of passing game.

The Ratbirds didn't score a touchdown till midway through the 4th and so since they were not chasing the game the sensible thing to do was to keep feeding Derrick Henry. And when you're armed with a power back you have to keep feeding him the ball till the defense can't take the pounding no more.

Did you see what he did to Earl Thomas who was flapping his gums all week? One stiff arm and he was spinning in the opposite direction. These guys after some time start making business decisions and literally refuse to tackle this man. Tannehill does not need to do anything crazy or heroic. He's a competent QB who just needs to keep it simple where required. Wilson was a 'game manager' when the Seahawks won, Peyton Manning was even worse

chic2pimp:
Though I am a bit more optimistic about this season than I was Last, two things still greatly worries me. Numero Uno is the Supporting cast. Most especially Bledsoe. Khash has been more a bit more consistent this season however He still tends to blow Hot and Cold on the regs. No2 is Coach Bud. Great Coach but I'm still not convinced He knows How to make ingame adjustments. If they sort those two things out, they'll go far.

76ers are my pick in the East. Not only do those dudes know How to turn it on against the Big Boys, they also match up well with them. If only Ben could shoot, they'll be my Favs overall.

The Bucks had to go through the growing pains and right of passage any team trying to win a Championship goes through. Bar the 99 Spurs and 08 Celtics I don't think any team jumped straight to a title without encountering difficulties.

I want to believe they will be better suited to take care of business this year.

As for the Sixers I'm still not sold on them, they could finish as low as 5th or 6th and have to go on the road all 3 rounds. Bar Embiid who you can't even trust to stay healthy I literally don't trust any other player on the roster to deliver. Not Harris, not Horford and definitely not Ben Simmons (Mr zero points in the second half)

Tundesam923:
right? 195 yards! Oof. But is this sustainable? And In a passing era? Maybe in the 1990s, it would feel more convincing cos how the game was structured; a running back contributed more value to winning. Emmitt smith did win a superbowl MVP(he did have troy aikman and Irvin), but with a ryan tannehill as your QB(did throw a 2 touchdowns, but 88 yards? Lol) .

Yards are the most overrated and inflatable stat anybody looking at a box score can observe.

They led from wire to wire so no need to pad stats with vanilla yards ala Dak Prescott to try and mask a mediocre performance. The important thing is they ran the ball, Ryan didn't turn it over and he made big throws when it mattered

Giannis and his band of white walkers marching to another routine win. Would be really interesting to see how Milwaukee do in the playoffs. I expected a slight drop off from last season but they have insanely gotten even better.

Hard to see them not winning 65 games at least

Lmaooooooo I told niggas who were drinking the Lamar Jackson Kool-Aid. The playoffs are a different animal. Did they think it was beans to win at Foxboro?

Derrick Henry is a problem. Wow! Loudmouths like Earl Thomas was talking a good one before the game. Derrick ran 195 yards on them and sired Earl Thomas and made him his blocker by spinning and stiff arming him to next week

macjireh:
Actually,, Liverpool is about to break 100 points D's season,,, u heard it here first

That would be tough. Can still see them losing a game or two and drawing another two

Godx:
Maybe it's just me but there is nothing really special about this Liverpool side. They are just capitalising on a weak Premier league at the moment.

They are 20-1-0 but there is nothing special about them?

I agree a lot of the traditional contenders have been underwhelming but to say Liverpool has not been special is not entirely accurate. This is arguably the deepest EPL squad I've seen ever assembled especially in the midfield. Maybe not in star quality but the fact that anybody can go down and it's next man up without breaking stride

larride:
Spurs deserve a draw in this match.

It be like that sometimes

What's the earliest time a team has been crowned Champions in EPL history? because Liverpool is about to break it

This clown actually came on TV claiming he was the difference maker in OKC getting past the first round. Jesus take the wheel

The 08 Celtics are the worst thing to happen to Sports. One little championship and none of them allow us make we hear word again

Your mentor taught you not to celebrate awoof pks, but you wouldn't listen, that's one of the reasons, he stopped sending you Christmas gifts. Ajakaja40.

Apoche cra cra. Why you dey always reason like Ewure? How often does Morata score from the spot like Hidden Hazard who has scored half his CL goals from the penalty spot.

Morata can celebrate PKs because he does not rely on them like Hidden. Since Hidden joined Madrid we can now see he is just Milovojevic with Belgian pali.

This is what I have to drum into that your apoche cra cra skull

airmark:


What made you to highlight the circumstance if not to ridicule Totti and Hazard? But Morata's circumstance of scoring shouldn't be highlighted and must be welcomed with a cool emoji. Shame on you ajakaja40, even raumdeuter wouldn't be proud of you for celebrating 'awoof' pk.

You're a m0ron. Has Morata scored half of his goals from penalties like Hazard did in CL competition?

Totti scored 60% of his goals from penalties in the season in view. Why would any objective person compare him with DelPiero in that argument? Apoche cra cra.

donlittle25:


Lol this life Sha. He talks like he was an all star or something

KD needs to learn to unlook sometimes. No need to go down that rabbit hole with a dude that is trying so hard to be a clown on TV. Whatever happens KD is still going down in the HOF.

Whatever anyone has to say about this '73-9' team. He's a significant reason why they finished with 3 titles and not 1.

The weirdest part is Perkins was on the same team averaging 2 and 4 yet he is dragging his teammate for a collective failure. The sheer shamelessness.

airmark:
The fool below.

You have the comprehension of a dyslexic baboon. You can't tell the difference between not counting a goal and highlighting the circumstances.

Fool. There's a reason there's always a (P) beside any goal scored from the penalty spot in any match report.

Your aggressive stupidity will not let you see this

airmark:
I was expecting you not to have counted Morata's pk as a goal, since it wasn't from open play. Ajakaja himself, elenu peye peye.

Werey alaso. Who doesn't count PK goals? Oniro alailojuti.

OKC looking like a problem rn

Where is the lie? If Perkins didn't drop poverty numbers maybe OKC wins.

Perkins really talking too much lately. He was a below average big lucky to be on winning teams. He needs to chill

airmark:
From open play? Your head, like bicycle seat.

Mumu. Who takes more penalties between him and your MCM Belloti. New year and you still no get sense
