true the article was odd trying to use Mahomes average day in sb against the leagues top defensive front 7 to daks 4 RS losses to decent teams most of the yards put up late after the game was out of hand..
also they forgot to mention while Mahomes scrambled away from that rush and poor OL play for around 500 yards and on two plays he hit wrs in the facemask and hand in the EZ that were Tds..
mahomes did his best and his wrs let him down this game..you take the good with he bad as his WRs have made him look great most of his career.it happens they had a bad game but individually Mahomes was Mahomes even on bad foot and his wrs unfortunately didnt come through when he most needed it..
when daks losing N(a)FCCGs like Rogers and mahomes then we can start doing comps on his worth and how much to pay him..fans are even fickle calling Rogers a choker because he loses championship games, laughable what have our qbs done? that true choking, cant get past the 2nd round type of choking..
the old phrase rather to have loved and lost that to have never loved at all, well instead of love substitute championship appearances. Ill take Jim Kelleys 4 losses and 4 straight appearances over any qb you try and say is better because well JK must be choker LOL cant win the big one, well how about get to a mthrfn big one before you judge..
IMHO Dak should have taken the first deals two years ago then if and only if he got us to a NFCCG or SB come back and ask for new deal.for sure that applies to the latest offers..beyond fair..insane the hardball hes playing..sure he has rights too but its not sitting well with a lot of fans..
I agree with all you said, and Rodgers, I dont think he is a choker, I do think he is arrogant, and believes the media when they say he is great,
which leads to him being a I am so good, I can just show up and play type. I dont think he tries as hard as brady to be the best he can be in off season
and during season.
Also they played the TB defense too lol this year, and he and his team were not ready for them and had a poor game plan.
Mahomes faced that same defense, and DC, and they too had a poor game plan, and could not adjust to what TB was doing.
About Brady and his pay, he gives a discount of lets say 10 mil, and that can help a team like TB who already have most of the pieces.
That 10 mil allowed or paid for ABrown, and Gronk, and maybe another player or 2. That makes a difference, what if TB didnt have that 1 player gronk??
Brady likes to be paid too even though he has a lot of money, he could play for 1 mil a year, but he doesnt do that, and that would really help a team.
Dak should have taken the deal of 5 @ 35,( which is too much) but he wants to get ALL the money he can get , and doesnt care how that affects his team.
Which leads me to conclude, he isnt really into being a SB champ, he just wants the money, all he can get and maybe they get lucky and get to a SB.
But Dak is fairly smart guy, so I dont see how he thinks his team can get to a SB paying him max market pay, so again he seems more interested
in the money than being a winner.
And Dak isnt the only player on his team that just wants the money more than winning, add elliot, lawrence, martin, cooper, and some others, and
other players on other teams are the same way, just give me the money.
Brady won his first SB on 2nd year of his rookie contract, which was pretty low as a 6th round pick, probably was the lowest paid qb to win a SB
in this century. He had success early , got paid then married giselle and at the time she was not that wealthy, marrying Brady , is what helped her get big
contracts, because what she does, pays more the more famous she is, and marrying Brady made her pay go way up. She is smart too, and probably
knew that would happen.
But many qb's in the league could do what tom does, and take less to be winners but none of them do it lol.
I would rather take 25 mil a year and get a SB ring than make top market pay and never get the SB ring.
Anyone can live great and be secure for life making 25 mil a year lol......except some who are morons, and they would wind up broke no matter how
much they make in football.
