Nineteen months later, the pertinent question is, “Which team made a worse trade?”
Two blockbuster quarterback trades made 10 days apart have delivered on their promise to change the NFL landscape.The debate over which team acquired the better quarterback — the Broncos landing nine-time Pro Bowler Russell Wilson or the Browns getting Deshaun Watson just as he entered the prime years of his career — has shifted.
Watson’s statistical line across the board is way down from his numbers as a three-time Pro Bowler with the Texans. It turns out that maybe Wilson’s style of play was more of the problem than those Seahawks offensive lines because sacks have followed him to the Broncos.
The Cowboys used the picks to acquire five players who were part of their three Super Bowl victories in the 1990s, including all-time NFL leading rusher Emmitt Smith, 1991 No. 1 overall pick Russell Maryland and Cowboys Ring of Honor member Darren Woodson.The Vikings got 2,264 yards rushing in two-plus seasons with Herschel Walker in the backfield; the Cowboys got the makings of a roster that won three Super Bowls.
It suddenly feels very possible that AFC road to Super Bowl LVIII could run through one of the NFL’s smallest markets. Since entering the NFL in 1995, the Jaguars have made eight playoff appearances and three conference championship appearances, but only were the No. 1 seed once…in 1999. After a first-round bye, they trounced the Dolphins, 62-7, in Dan Marino’s final game before losing at home to the Titans one step shy of the Super Bowl.Trevor Lawrence has proven to be one of the only quarterbacks to perform as well as his 2021 draft postion suggested.
The most-ridiculed contract was given to Kirk , who never had a 1,000-yard season over four years with the Cardinals. He is living up to the price tag with 127 catches for 1,628 yards and 11 touchdowns in 25 games.That six-hour Sunday of watching football — that you turn into a nine-hour block by watching “Sunday Night Football” — just became a one-time full 12-hour commitment unless you are willing to miss the NFL’s game of the week. Actually, maybe the game of the season to date.
