Here is @Gil_Brandt on NFL radio when asked about Dwayne Haskins. “He was a guy that was living to be dead.” “It was always something” with Haskins “Maybe it he stayed in school a year he wouldn’t do silly things [like] jogging on a highway.”

A player telling a ref he is eligible. A gray line of scrimmage that is enforced with warnings. Measuring first downs with old men carrying a chain. The NFL has more attention than ever, and its archaic rules and system is not equipped to handle it.

Since 2013, the Giants have used five 1st/2nd round picks on O-linemen, most in the NFL. Yet they had the worst 2020 pass block grade in the NFL per @PFF , and are going to cut their best OL because they can’t afford him despite having a QB on a rookie deal. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
