Yeah, they also do a full decade list, which is just so many words about Gronk: https://www.footballoutsiders.com/quick-reads/2020/quick-reads-decade-review-te-totals

But Gates is 5th, despite the 2010's starting in year 8 of his career, and with this note:

Gronkowski's 461 DYAR in 2011 was the best in this or any other decade. The second-best mark of the 2010s was Antonio Gates' 361 in 2010.


Yeah, it's funny just how slow Gates and Witten were in their last years... but still catching stuff, just doing these old man shuffles to pick up 8 yards then going down immediately as someone 12 years younger then them comes screaming at them.

That will be 2020 Gronk.

For the June thread people, have 4 minutes of slow rear end QB running plays: (okay, they aren't all slow as hell QB's, but they sure are all white).

There's the most Tony Romo rear end play in there, like just wow.

I'll save you all from reading this: Some weirdo wrote a book about the conspiracy against "Black Hebrews" in 2018 and included a fictional intro written by "Hitler" to support his arguments, which is what DeSean was quoting.

Most white ones as an example. I mean someone up thread put out there that the NFL don't want to come down too hard on a black player right now and I can see that. Feels like maybe there's something a bit problematic about assuming a black player is confused and doesn't understand as opposed to on some level believing it. I mean the pseudo-quote isn't exactly subtle.

With regards to player pay at what point does it become cheaper for the ownership to lose the season entirely rather than play a shorter season and still pay salaries out fully? Michael Thomas might get what he's looking for.

I think it has more to do with with the quote being a fictional Hitler citing Qanon style nonsense from a movement most sports fans are probably not familiar with. If he'd actually quoted something from Mein Kampf I think there would be more outrage.

You might not be wrong though. Think of the Pats kicker, no one was willing to give that guy the benefit of the doubt over his tattoo and I think in large part that's because we've just experienced so many white athletes expressing horribly racist opinions recently that we're highly skeptical to believe someone's made a choice or statement out of ignorance and not intentional hate.

The Pats have kinda got some people into this mindset that dynasties are easy with a great coach and great superhuman QB when, man there's so much poo poo that can go wrong and ruin any particular season.

After 2010 and 2011 I think people imagined Rodgers would be back in the Super Bowl every other year and... well, not so much!
