Sure, and Embid was the MVP of the NBA

Their job is to score points and lead the offense. Whether they do it by passing or running doesn't really matter. However, the problem with QB's like Jackson/Vick is: 1) Running the ball leads to more injuries. Besides the fact that rules afford QB's special protections from getting hit/hurt, once they run they're treated like a RB. RB's take more abuse than any other position in football. Their careers are shorter as a result. So, you're shortening the career of your QB if they run as much as Lamar Jackson does and you risk them getting injured on every play they choose to run. For the most important and highest paid position on your offense this is not smart. Teams like BAL that choose to have a QB such as Lamar know this and expect to need a new QB much sooner. 2) Most running QB's are less accurate passers than non running QB's. The fact is Mahomes is a decent running QB but he doesn't NEED to run that much because of his passing ability. Also, learning how to navigate the pocket to extend plays to give yourself extra time to pass is important. Running QB's tend to run at the first sign of trouble in the pocket so they don't tend to develop this skill to a high level. 3) You can have multiple RB's on your roster so if one gets injured you just go to the next one. Rarely does a team have a backup QB that can be as effective as the starter. Teams just hope a backup QB can play a game or two and not tank their playoff prospects. Most teams believe that if their starter goes down for the season their chances of winning the SB go down the toilet.

I'm not going to go look in to the stats you've posted to see if they're cherry picked or out of context. Here are their career and head to head stats: https://stathead.com/football/vs/lamar-jackson-vs-patrick-mahomes Both the above link and my own eyes tell me Mahomes is a lot better QB than Jackson. So do their accomplishments. Jackson is not someone I want to have to rely on to PASS the ball in a CRUCIAL situation, which is what is required at some point in the journey to winning a SB.

So the lead attorney for CO told the SCOTUS yesterday that a state, based on polling, could choose to remove a candidate from the ballot 3 days before the election: But yeah, they have a valid case.

15 year old illegal in NYC shot a tourist in a store and then shot at a cop chasing him twice. @The Real timschochet applauds his ambition in his new country!!!

Cool. He and Embid can party it up this weekend!!!

These are questions of FACT. You can easily look at the report and Biden's press conference to confirm the claims. CNN is simply a conduit. Of course, you never actually research anything so I understand why you just believe everything your MSM overlords feed you. But for those of us so inclined, this fact check is easily verifiable.

You think the Dems would hesitate to put his body in the basement and pretend he's still alive?

I suggest QLazzarus to hold the money. He's been used in the past and is one of the most trustworthy people here after our dear departed Chronic Husker.

Kill Marry Fawk- Wemens And Da Homos Version

I'm not touching this. -
We just got Tix this morning to see Stevie Nicks in Denver in a couple of months. $177/ticket for nose bleed seats. Thanks TicketNazis.

Look, Keira Knightley is hot. If she wants to do a porno that's fine by me. "Pirates of the CariLesbian" or something. But, and no offense to the lady geeks here, pirates were men. A leading lady pirate just isn't going to work for me.
-
Kiera Knightly would be interesting since she was in the early movies. Still wouldn't make the movie watchable though.
-
Thanks. They're aren't very specific, and I'd be a little surprised if it happens, but interesting that it's even on the radar.

Details released on bipartisan immigration bill that MAGAturds don't want because it vaporizes a Clownzo campaign issue
Strike replied to Pimpadeaux's topic in The Geek Club
Oh yeah. It predates Trump for sure. Remember, this is the guy who to this day thinks it's ok to rape 13 year olds if they "look" older. -
Except it's not true. That's the point. You're just making sh*t up again.
-
I'd have to see an official link. The last I heard they were talking to Depp about returning to that franchise.
-
Bump for @The Real timschochet or were you just making sh*t up again? As I noted yesterday, the difference between you and I is that I provide proof of your ignorance/being wrong. You just make stupid assertions that you can't back up.

They're going to b*tch slap Colorado. Even Kagan's comments during the hearing suggest this, and she's one of the far lefties on the court. Just because a case gets to the SCOTUS doesn't mean the case has serious merit.

Democratic Senator admits what we all know, that the people they care about MOST are the illegals. Not the American citizens they're elected to represent: -
I'm never betting CMH a "hat" ever again. He'll expect a car if he wins.

Kill - Britney. No particular reason but she's what's left after I decided on the other two. Fock - Lady GaGa. Not the most attractive female in the world, but she did look hot in AHS. But I think she'd be a freak in bed. Marry - Taylor Swift. Least nutty of the three, filthy rich so she can buy me the plane I want, and easy on the eyes.
