2.  Not sure on this one, those teams have 4 of the best O-lines in the game.
3.  Palmer was easily a better QB.
4.  Dunlap deserves the hate.  HE acted like a baby and NONE of the players sided with him.  I appreciate all he did here, but the way he forced himself out was a disgrace to his legacy here.
5.  Agree.

1. When people are claiming Gio is better than Mixon then he’s overrated. Not sure how stating his actual role on the team disproves that...

2. You must not have read what I wrote very carefully. And this is a thing folks on this board tend to do when discussing trenches vs skill positions. I did not say OL is not vital did I? Or that’s it’s less important. I said elite weapons are as important in today’s NFL. The 4 teams left also have some of the best WR’s and TE’s in the game. Kelce, Hill, Gronk, Evans, Godwin, Diggs, Adams, etc. That’s why I don’t understand when people say things like “Burrow doesn’t need elite weapons.” Ofc he does.

4. Yes other players did side with Dunlap. Or at the very least take similar stances. Several of them were outspoken about the toxic locker room, lack of communication, wasting talent, etc. There was clearly a problem with multiple players on the defense this season, and it largely stemmed from Lou Anarumo.
