Yep. I know. How crazy is it to actually judge a player by how he produces on the field. No one does that.

I can't stop laughing at the people who think NFL teams pay the better players more than the bad ones. What a ridiculous concept.

Seriously, what kind of rube would believe that the ability to make an NFL roster has anything to do with how good a player is. Just look at the long list of amazing players who don't produce on the field, don't get paid in free agency, and don't make NFL rosters. Who would be stupid enough to think you can judge a player by any of those standards?

Right, I mean just look at all the posts YOU made after the 2018 season about how Joe Burrow was going to be the greatest QB in the country in 2019 based on all the LSU games YOU watched.
I remember how all the college football analysts and NFL experts who actually scout and break down film predicted that he would be the #1 overall pick in 2020 immediately after the end of the 2018 season.
