Some of the dumbest too. I was reading one of their message boards, and (a lot of) that sample was completely out of touch with reality. This is an actual quote insulting Cowherd's comments hyping the Lions: For one, these comps are stupid to begin with, because games are played offense against defense, not Pro Bowl skill competitions between position groups... Even so, I think it's more fairly stated as: Goff > Purdy CMC > Gibbs/Montgomery (but difficult in many ways because you're comping one player against two) LaPorta > Kittle Sewell >> Williams St. Brown > Deebo Aiyuk > Reynolds Warner > Anzalone (why are they comping a LB1 with a rookie LB3?) Branch=Lenoir (why are they comping an outside CB1 with a rookie nickel/free safety?) These are two pretty evenly matched teams. I expect an extremely close game. In fairness, this was a response later down the line:

If Brad and Dan stay on the current trajectory, it may not be a once in a lifetime chance.

Exactly. The way to really beat down the Lions defense is with the deep passing attack. I’m not worried about Brock Purdy exploiting that. Baker Mayfield though…….
