It's not a Pro Bowl QB skills competition

Act like you don't know how the NFL works. It's a QB driven league and that's the narrative during the playoffs.

Stafford loses and he's going to get blamed if he gets outplayed by any of the remaining quarterbacks.

Why was this year the year that Josh Allen's failure to get it done got magnified? It's because he didn't have to worry about losing to Patrick for a 5th time. There was no Lamar or Burrow. He lost to Bo Nix who no one has rated as elite. He was supposed to beat Trevor and everyone left in the AFC. The only QB he could lose to was Stafford.

Fair or not that's the reality. It's not about the defensive matchup. You get compared to the opposing QB.

Yes because the average sports fan is retarded

That doesn’t mean people with common sense should agree with that narrative

Allen was up and down and that fumble before half was horrible but with all those TO’s he still put up 30 on a great defense

Allen isn’t Mahomes because of Mahomes accomplishments and I think Allen is a little more mistake prone but after that any team would gladly take Allen as their QB.

It was a dope episode, thoroughly enjoyed it. Thought there might have been some mention of Jack Johnson when it came to "that dude" type of brotha.

Yeah the episodes with Howard Bryant are always great. I learn something new everytime he’s on because of the historical context he provides on things

yeah I remember the time prior to this he had him on and he mentioned the book he was working on, and i was fascinated to hear more. I always enjoy the episodes with Howard Bryant and Spencer Hall.

I actually remember doing something on Paul Robeson in elementary school, but it was definitely whitewashed. Was never aware of the troubles and trials he went through.
