Wont even win 5 games. I was really tempted to bite to this and quote it. But I said to myself, no you're better than that, don't quote it and don't reply.So I didn't.

Especially for a team like the 49ers, who I don't think are special in any way. Not some juggernaut by any means. Would not be afraid to face them under really any normal circumstances.

No. I think he'll bust cause he's 3rd round talent that was taken 1st overall. I thought in 2018 he was better than his numbers. So you could say I was higher on him than most. However, I never saw him as a 1st round caliber NFL QB. The only difference between me and the rest of you is I simply didn't change my assesment of him from 2018 to 2019. I rate players based on their tools and ability not their collegiate production. Its really that simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philadelphia does not win that Super Bowl if Nick Foles did not blow up in the playoffs. I do agree Cincinnati is more talented than their record indicated, but a rookie QB has never started in a Super Bowl and Cincinnati isn't good enough to take one to the Super Bowl. In 2004, Big Ben went 13-0 as a rookie and had the Steelers looking like they would be a Super Bowl team. He didn't have the biggest numbers either. He just played well enough for the rest of the team to carry him to that record. I don't anticipate the Bengals to be as dominant in the regular season as the 2004 Steelers but they should be very good. For the record, in 2018 I projected the Bengals to go 12-4 despite having Andy Dalton as their starting QB. So I have been a fan of the overall talent on the Bengals roster despite mediocre QB play for a while now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philly wasn't that much better, since we match up well with them. But when you lose your starting QB for the year (Bradford at the time was a bit better than Keenum and Bridgewater was better too even though he's not very flashy) and starting RB, its tough to win vs top competition. Heck, it took a freaking miracle to beat New Orleans the week before. And Philly has screwed us over for like 5 years straight now I think.

I agree Cincinnati isn't as bad as their record indicated, but I highly doubt we'll be seeing a rookie QB start in the Super Bowl any time soon. The pressure is just too much.

Basically owned Mahome’s for 3 and half a qrts in the Super Bowl until that major collapse.The amount of disrespect this team gets is straight laughable.

Keenum was on fire, until the NFCCG. The Eagles lost their Starting QB a month before that game. Not 3-4 like Bradford. What always seems to get lost with the Foles hoopla winning that SB is the fact the Eagles had a Top 5 Offense and Top 5 Defense. The best OL in the NFL that year and a DL that was creating Rediculous pressure. The depth on that team was absurd. Sorry , but they were better.
