Of the 66 owners brave enough to vote in the poll "Best of the Rest" only 1 of them had the cajones or was unbalanced enough in their head to vote Nick Foles.

Because he did in 2016 and he was awful. Murray was clearly the superior #2 option in that offense this year. McKinnon needs a new team or he is going to be buried as the #3
You think Murray outshined McKinnon? Murray is nothing special. I think cook will take 90 percent of the touches next year so if Minn doesn't cut Murray he'll be a handcuff anyways. I wouldn't think Minn would even want to resign McKinnon so I think he'll move on but he has played very well this season and a team will give him a shot

All I can hope is that a team/coach sees and likes McKinnon's athleticism and pass catching ability and give him a chance at being a lead dog and I can off load for a good price or keep him and he proves himself, I got him off the waiver wire so it doesn't matter much to me, but I like the guy and hope he does well

Welp! For a guy that was rooting for a Jags v. Vikes SB today sucked. Dynasty slant: Tom Brady will not die.

Well I am a firm believer in what goes up must come down and what goes down must come up - so maybe you're due for a great 2018 fantasy wise. You're already projected to be top 2 in one league. :ewink:

I was going to let this go but I just can't do it. Calling me out because of something in my signature (none of those things being in my comment). Curious if you get on people who post the "X2" or "Player X. Not close" types of statements for not expounding on those notations. Or if you like to call out people supporting a player because they happen to be an owner (as opposed to being an owner because they believe in a player). But I guess I need to expound...

Wentz was great in college. The knock he was getting coming into the pros was it wasn't long enough... He was the best QB prospect (in my opinion) and sure fire franchise QB to come out since Luck . He developed well as a rookie and was great thru this season up to the point of getting hurt.

By contrast, we have Nick Foles. A pedestrian talent who has been floundering in the NFL since being released by the Eagles on his first go around due to poor play. There is plenty of NFL history to demonstrate his average skill set. Over the last month he's been playing not to lose football games. Just because he played a very good game this week should not diminish Wentz's superior skill set & talent as a product of the "scheme".
If you can't leave at least a 20% tip, you can't afford to eat out.

I read it as if Rodney Dangerfield was saying it for some reason.
