My take is that it’s Jahmyr. By my eyes, he was actually the best RB in college last year but Bijan had the historic body of work “carrying” him a little bit. (I say carrying, but he was still phenomenal).

Bijan has the more well-rounded skill set, but Gibbs has the top end speed that is unmatched. I think that will set him apart in the long run. Gibbs in space is horrifying.

Why does everyone think Hamas is worse than ISIS?

Ok but here’s a fundamental question:

Is this a change in referring or a change in playing style / ability? Is there a way to determine, empirically, if players are actually committing penalties and an increased rate - as opposed to simply being called for more penalties?

Also, are there teams that are just actually more disciplined and commit fewer penalties?

And one final question, only semi-related:

WHY DO DBs WEAR BRIGHT-COLORED GLOVES???????? If you wanna get away with holding, don’t wear bright yellow gloves!!

Richie Incognito should absolutely get in - if the only thing that matters is performance. Guy was an absolute terror on the football field. Apparently a terror off of it too
