  Why Christian Ponder thinks he didn't pan out

It started with an injury his junior year and it affected everything from physical to mental to emotional from there. In his words.
An interesting (and philosophical) read.

  Do the Eagles have an OL Whisperer?
Posted by: MaroonBells - 04-15-2025, 08:31 AM - Forum: The Longship - Replies (7)

There's one 1st rounder on that line. They have a 7th rounder starting at left tackle. 

Mekhi Becton, a tackle called "the big ticket" was taken 11th overall by the Jets, where he was considered a massive bust. Signs with the Eagles for $5M last year, moved to guard, and was a big part of their success. Last month he parlayed that into a $20M deal with the Chargers. 

Kenyon Green, a guard taken 15th overall by the Texans, was the lowest-ranked guard in the NFL in both 2022 and 2024. An obvious bust, he was traded to the Eagles for next to nothing. Can the Eagles OL coach turn Green into another Becton? I wouldn't bet against it.

  QB Will Howard

I watched a lot of Howard when he played at Kansas State......not sure who he thinks he is, but he's not that guy. Average arm, mechanical and predictable. Slow setup in the pocket. Tool box is limited. I think Jon Gruden blew pot smoke in his face when he said he 'reminded him of Josh Allen', lmao. Played on the best team money could buy last year at Ohio State.

  Wannabe Emperor says "Homegrowns are Next"
Posted by: Zanary - 04-14-2025, 06:22 PM - Forum: Sensitive Topics - Replies (5)

So...the same full-on traitor that's maneuvering around due process (as a president, that's pretty damned treasonous) and is blowing off complete lacks of evidence on the deportees, now wants Americans caged in El Salvador.
If this isn't an entire sea of red flags to anyone, I can't begin to imagine what it'd take.

  OT: Easter Brunch For The Fam
Posted by: JustInTime - 04-14-2025, 04:38 PM - Forum: The Longship - Replies (20)

We decided to go out instead of cooking a big meal. First restaurant we contacted was $550 for 4 adults and 2 kids. I asked if that includes a 20 minute Q&A with the risen Jesus himself.

WTF

  SI.com's Breer: Why the Vikings are betting big on JJ McCarthy
Posted by: StickierBuns - 04-14-2025, 11:25 AM - Forum: The Longship - Replies (13)

Really good article, long and in-depth. And yeah, by the end of training camp, the only thing that separated Uncle Sammy and JJ 'was experience'. This is The One. 

'O'Connell on working with quarterbacks in Minnesota: “We’ve kind of built things to be quarterback friendly, but yet the quarterback has to have ownership of those things.”
