Beats me.

Because if you don't remove them you end up with skid marks.

Cowherd has been losing it lately.

He made a list of QBs who couldn’t win a Super Bowl this year and named Dwayne Haskins on it….. Who died in April of 2022

technically correct is best kind of correct

He says we have one decent hotel. He says we have a weak fan base and are basically a college sports town. He says we've always struggled with attendance. He says Trevor is probably the only thing that could prevent the team from relocating to Europe.

Remind me again why anybody pays attention to dingleberries like Cowherd?

Same reason people pay attention to Skip Bayless, they say silly things and people are entertained by it.

Serious cringe
Cowherd has Lawrence/Ridley as his #2 QB/WR duo in the NFL. Burrow/Chase were #1.

Derek Carr and Dak on this list invalidate the entire thing.

Mahomes and Kelce should be 1.

Im very excited for Lawrence and Ridley but they’re not better than Allen/Diggs yet.

As much as I love the idea of Trevor and Ridley being the best duo in the league, the real question is how do you put anybody above Patty Mahomes and Kelce.

Well it's only a projection and Tlaw and Ridley certainly have the potential to be elite while being young enough to have a few years together.
Pundits do stuff like this to be different and "controversial" and get folks talking about them.
All I can really say though is I hope he's right  Smile

The other thing is, the Jags have four pretty damn good options in Ridley, Kirk, Jones, and Engram.  I think they spread the ball around a lot and even though Ridley may have a few more receptions I don’t think you see a huge disparity.

What's going to be so exciting is what does a D try to do against that? Double Ridley? Your leaving Zay and Kirk one on one. Send 4 and drop 7? Give Lawrence time and he'll find an open guy. Send the house? That ball is going to the house!

Going to be a fun year!

Exactly! Weapons all over the place. Trevors got a lot better at trusting guys and not thinking he has to make wonder plays every snap which he won't have to with all these weapons and knowing the system better.

This offense really has no excuse not to be top 5 this year honestly

I would hope they are at least close to top-5, but it will depend on a whole lot of things that might not be controllable.
Trevor must also remember that if he has the opportunity to run the ball and defenders close in, SLIDE DAMMIT.

Other than that, yeah, he’ll do fine.

because the list asked for best QB and WR tandem?

Good gravy, did I just defend Cowherd? I feel icky.

The rush the passer. Reduce the amount of time the defensive backfield has to cover. Pray that the big guys up front stay healthy, folks.

Between CC and CJB I'm not really sure who has the worst take history.

Well he ranked Mahomes-Kelce 3rd so I don't think that's the reason.
