2023 could be the ultimate prove-it year for Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo. While the veteran quarterback has never made a Pro Bowl, all he has done is win. He has a career-winning percentage of 71.6% in games started, which is the eighth-best number in NFL history, per StatMuse.
Despite that, the San Francisco 49ers didn’t even attempt to bring him back this offseason. The Raiders have just two winning seasons since 2002 so Garoppolo can finally prove whether or not winning is a quarterback stat. Minnesota Vikings quarterback was asked who the most underrated quarterback in the NFL is and his answer was Garoppolo.
“I kind of always scratch my head at the Jimmy Garoppolo situation in San Francisco, because I know how hard it is to win in this league,” Cousins said in a July 20 video for Netflix. “And it seems like every time he goes out there, they win. And then, they’re moving on from him or trying to draft somebody and trade up, and I’m thinking, ‘It’s pretty hard to win double-digit games in this league and that’s all they seem to do when the plays.’ So obviously I don’t know all that goes on there, but if he does it again with the Raiders, at some point, this guy’s just a winner.”
Garoppolo has been fortunate to play for very talented teams and coaches during his stint with the 49ers and New England Patriots. He’ll face a real test this year playing for a Raiders team that has struggled for decades. Getting Las Vegas to the playoffs this season could do wonders for his legacy.

I love Jimmy G. your right, all he does is win, and get injured. I heard his foot is not healing that well at Raiders?
Honestly, the Niners Quarterback situation has been fucked up ever since they sold the farm for Trey Lance, which has effected everyone.
I have never liked Trey Lance, not even one day, they basically drafted a high school QB, bad move, real bad move.
My hope is that they also get rid of Lance, not sure why anyone would want him, get solid with Purdy and Darnold, move on, by God.

Jimmy is a winner. The Niners have had a good O line --but there has been inconsistencies - and key injuries - in that O line the past few years.
Give Jimmy a SOLID Offensive line and the injuries end. Still have no idea why he was always in disfavor within

And I believe Jimmy G's proneness to injury is really the reason why the Niners kept looking beyond him every season. Tua is even more of an concern for the Dolphins. Anyway, I finally bit the bullet and had arthroscopic surgery on my knee yesterday, so I am available if either Garrapolo or Tua goes down this year.
Lions need a solid back up. AR will you be available ? Good luck on the heal --------lay low and Rock On AR !!
hey AR - Ive went ahead and provided the Lions org chart for you. I suggest you send your resume to Sheila. It 'may' help if she knows that you drive a Ford vehicle Here you go -

Yes, Mahomes does sound like Kermit. It makes me wonder what he will do post NFL career. Many of the best move to ESPN or other sports commentary. I can't see that.
Maybe it will improve when puberty strikes.
NFL reporter Peter King paid a visit to Lions' training camp earlier this week.
He spoke with Campbell about the organization's feelings toward playing in the season's opening game against Kansas City.
The head coach, as expected, appeared fired up about the opportunity.
"Well, I was excited. Who wouldn't be?," Campbell said. "I know for myself and for our guys, what better way to start the season then to go against the champ? They're the heavyweight champ, they're holding the belt. It'll be an unbelievable test for us. It excites me, it excites us, I was pretty giddy."

...
Tonight it all starts again! 7pm cst ....on NBC. NY Jets vs Cleveland Browns.
I can see Rodgers playing some. .Why??? .because it's the NEW Rodgers!
Forget the fact that he never played a snap in any GB preseason games for many years.
AR, you paying attention to all this?

Man you're really into this stuff
I've got it on but I will probably only watch a few minutes here and there. I just want the thrill of seeing NFL players on the field. I doubt many of the stars will play long if at all. Injuries matter more than anything else. Might as well let your position players get up to speed when the season starts. At least that's the way it seems to be heading over the last few years.Let the games begin

I don't follow the NFL anymore...but Demarcus Ware was LESS than inspiring
No, I'm currently involved in demixing and remixing Deja Vu into Surround Sound. This is appropriate because every NY Jets season is deja vu all over again.
That's no Deja News to me...
What? Yous guys don't believe me? Here's Helpless in Gang Green colors, no less:

Helpless is the key word. https://www.nfl.com/news/inside-training-camp-live-buzz-thursday-august-3
Rodgers is talking to Tirico and Collinsworth on NBC right now. He seems very happy. Honeymoons are wonderful. Aren’t they now?

anybody could be happy talking to Collinsworth
I watched last night till half time, I hate preseason, but I know it is a necessary evil.
Yes, agree, nice to see the season start.
If it was regular season, this game a good example, half time I thought it was a Jets blow out, woke up this morning to find
Browns 21-Jets 16.
