Archaea

I’d feel pretty good about the top 5 and Goff(assuming I get the Lions weapons)

PHXSUNS31

11:34am

Playing against the Chiefs' defense, who would be your preferred QB?

Archaea

11:36am

Probably Josh Allen if I had to pick

PHXSUNS31

11:38am

Not Jackson, who appears to be the favorite for MVP.

Archaea

11:41am

I’d be happy with him too…he’d have my vote for mvp

PHXSUNS31

11:43am

I'd take Josh Allen with absolutely no hesitation

Belboz

11:45am

If you had to choose from among Jackson, Allen and Mahomes, who is your choice?

Archaea

11:48am

I'd take Allen over anyone with no hesitation

Belboz

11:49am

Why?

Archaea

11:51am

It is true, but there's a lot of games where Mahomes a lot of the game has been very poor and carried by his defense.

Mahomes has also had a ton of injuries, on his line, RB and Receiving corps

He cared when BYU beat Michigan instead of Hawaii or Air Force

DodgerCoug
