Somehow a vote that was never in danger of not happening now is happening when all along there was never any real doubt. This beat is like Groundhog Day. See you all in Minnesota where Josh Harris will be approved as the Commanders’ next owner on Thursday. https://t.co/tEekhFzlIg

Update: AFC Scout on #Jets QB Aaron Rodgers: “I think everyone is afraid to say he’s declined a little,” via @JFowlerESPN

Adding: “He’s still a great thrower and sees it really well, but he’s more like [ranked] eight to 12 for me.”

Derrick Henry shares his thoughts on the state of the running back position. pic.twitter.com/QbuCmopnmM

This is the kind of trash that has artificially devalued one of the most important positions in the game. Everyone knows it’s tough to win without a top RB and yet they act like we are discardable widgets. I support any RB doing whatever it takes to get his bag. https://t.co/sRYfAKwrpQ

— Austin Ekeler (@AustinEkeler) July 17, 2023

Again, the problem isn’t that running backs don’t have value. The problem is that there are too many talented ones. Thats the biggest issue dropping the financial value of the best ones. https://t.co/K9nzUl3AQl

— Aaron Schatz (@ASchatzNFL) July 18, 2023

Adding to the RB conversation: Remember that the lower down you go in football levels, the more important the RB is, and the bigger distinction there is between good and average RBs.

It can be hard to mentally differentiate between what works in the NFL, college, and HS.

My 1st update since 2017

No team has won a SB with their leading rusher having played more than 5 seasons for the team since Emmitt in 1995.

If Marshawn Lynch doesn’t make the HOF, the last HOF RB that led a SB winner in rushing was Marshall Faulk in 1999. pic.twitter.com/3hRWDf6I62

Washington solidified itself as one of football history’s all-time teams by winning three Super Bowls in 10 years in the 1980s and ’90s.

The first of these was Super Bowl XVII at the @RoseBowlStadium in 1983.

I think that the helmet looks great and the addition of the center stripes ties the whole look together. Very well done imo. The Browns original white helmet worn from 1946-51 was just white, without any center stripes. pic.twitter.com/BEkdHZiPeu
