Historically I feel teams tend to do better when people lower their expectations for success for the year. I will use the 2018 Caps and the 2019 Nats as my examples.

When everybody expects you to compete for a title in a given year, only disappointment remains when you don't.

I understand the line of thinking - but this is not the case where it counts ie: other teams and coaching staffs. The arrogant ones may overlook but the NFL is on notice of this defense and will be very quickly aware of how well this offense can run. The talking heads and public opinion mean jack shit unless it's creeping in subliminally to coaching staffs around the league but i doubt it.

I just see it as an opportunity for a few well placed bets

Well that was pleasant.

For me it's all about the respect from guys that aren't your teammates. If you have the attention of other All-Pro type players that speaks volumes. Great video.

Everyone knew how talented he is. Now, everyone knows about his incredible drive and leadership. He is truly the complete package.

I think McLaurin is the equivalent on offense. He’s a worker and really wants to be great. They’re two of my favorite players in a long time.

He is but Young is an absolute freak physically though with his size and overall talent. Both have incredible work ethic and drive. I'll never forget McClaurin's tackle @ Dallas last year. Bigtime stuff.

This is neat, PFR did the research and compiled an unofficial list of sack leaders going back to 1960. In the new unofficial rankings, Deacon Jones ranks 3rd in NFL history with 173.5 sacks. And Al Baker would be your single season record holder with 23 sacks in 1978 (scroll down the page in the link for the listing).

Also officially, no player has ever led the league in sacks more than twice. Unofficially Deacon Jones holds that record with 5 though.

And finally, Dexter Manley's totals would go up 103.5 when you add the 6 sacks from his rookie season (when sacks weren't an official stat).

I was surprised by this news. Sherman seemed like he is a smart dude but I guess not.

It’s a catered image by him first and then the media. He’s always been a clown

Sounds like he could have been having some sort of mental crisis/breakdown.

Richard Sherman was ‘suicidal’ before crash, arrest, according to 911 calls from family

That is a rough night.

Sad the public has to hear every little bit of detail.

IMHO I never would want the fame these folks have, regardless of the money. It seems like a empty life.
