First quarterback the best quarterback?
22 Apr

Just before that time period is one of the all-time examples of the possible difference between the first quarterback drafted (Peyton Manning) and the others (Ryan Leaf)...
Running wild

Checking into the numbers further, I see that this is, in fact, correct.
To look at this, I figured I’d leave jet sweeps and quarterback scrambles out...
Passing Packers
19 Apr
, 2019
I don’t know exactly what he has in mind (let’s see who they draft next week) but it’s a safe bet we’ll see more running plays...
D.K. Metcalf
16 Apr
, 2019
Metcalf broke his foot two games into his freshman season at Mississippi...
Alshon Jeffery
14 Apr
, 2019
Jeffery is probably Philadelphia’s No. 1 receiver. He’s bigger than Nelson Agholor and DeSean Jackson, and I think it’s fair to say he’s also better...
Nick Chubb
14 Apr
, 2019
But I'm not terribly concerned about Chubb's future. mostly because I think he's really good. We had some doubts coming out of college, but he answered them very quickly...
Alvin Kamara
13 Apr
, 2019
Dick Vermeil’s Kansas City teams are the leaders in this area, with a brilliant four-year run from 2002 to 2005. Lots of production from Priest Holmes and Larry Johnson in there...
Patrick Mahomes
13 Apr
, 2019
Anything is possible, but the history suggests he'll be beating the odds if he puts up similar touchdown numbers...
Ravens runners
11 Apr
, 2019
Baltimore has some other running backs, and I wonder how much better Ingram is than those guys. In his last six games, Kenneth Dixon ran for 301 yards, averaging 5.7 yards per attempt...
Running quarterbacks

Rushing production with quarterbacks is huge...
Ravens tight ends
9 Apr
, 2019
Baltimore’s tight ends, I was surprised to see, actually played better after the team switched quarterbacks. Joe Flacco is well known for liking to throw short balls in the middle of the field...
Bell Part II
8 Apr
, 2019
I think he’s good. I think he’s for real. Before him, the Steelers had Franco Harris and Jerome Bettis; those guys are both Hall of Fame players...
DeVante Parker
7 Apr
, 2019
He’s just not that good. He looks like another A.J. Green when he’s running around in shorts, but it hasn’t happened on the field...
LeVeon Bell
6 Apr
, 2019
In each of the last two years, Gase’s offenses ranked last in rushing touchdowns – just 4 in 2017, and 7 TDs last year...
John Brown
5 Apr
, 2019
Josh Allen had some success on deep throws last year, especially late in the season. Rookie Robert Foster averaged 20 yards per catch...
