So I came across this tweet and while I know PFF is garbage...it got me thinking about this topic and about George Kittle. What in the **** do people see that makes them hold him in such high regard???

He's played 7 season...broke 1k 3 times with 2 of those seasons barely being over 1,000...one season over 10 TDs, 4 of those seasons with 5 or less TDs and 2 were 6 TD seasons.

Not to mention he's been a complete non factor in both Super Bowls he's been in.

He's not even in the same galaxy as Kelce...I really wish someone would tell me what I'm missing here. He has a bombastic personality and is a goofball and talks a lot? Wow ok.

Who would you all say is massively overrated in the league by fans, media, etc.?

The entire San Diego LA Chargers team.

No way Lamar Jackson is more overrated than Dak Prescott. Both are chokers in the playoffs but one has been so good in 2 separate years that he won 2 MVPs (which should just be called the best QB in the regular season award). People just dislike him because he is a running QB.

He’s not a top 5 QB and was only ever worthy of being one in 2019.

It’s annoying seeing this guy get called the best QB in the league by some analysts when he’s only thrown 30 or more TD’s once, has never thrown for 4K yards and falls apart every time in the playoffs.

Tight end?

I was just going to say, oh boy, Virus will be here any minute now.

I just bid a project that would've leveraged AI to review all relevant online material for NCAA men's and women's basketball, scrub the commentary from the internet, mark it for sentiment scores and provide a daily report summarizing the metrics from yesterday's content.

This is an example of how these orgs determine the value of the content they put out and identify trends that would earn more engagement.

What will have the most impact and engagement.

You know, exactly what people expect from journalists...

Comparing him to Kelce at this point is laughable. PFF picking him over Trav as the best in football does nothing but prove they're utterly clueless.

He’s not even the best TE in his conference. Sam LaPorta is incredible and is coming fast for Kelce as the TE top dawg.

That Carton guy said last week that Dak was statistically as good as Pat over the last 2-3 years. That if Dak had been luckier in the playoffs he'd be considered as good as Mahomes or some such BS.

I agree with this fully. Lamar is a game changer and requires a specific game plan to stop. Dak is a guy.

What drives me nuts about the Kittle shit is when morons get going about the blocking, they completely ignore what Kelce is as a blocker himself.

Kelce is fantastic as a blocker (whenever that occurs). He's not going to pancake anybody, but he's effective and gets the job done when he needs to. These Kittle nuthuggers seem to think he's a total finesse player who shouldn't even be classified as a TE. Just because a majority of his blocks occur as extensions of a route they seem to think that's a huge red mark against him. Okay, you want your TE smashing into dudes directly off the snap? Get a 6th OL. They're even better at that job than ****ing Kittle!

I would say Creed Humphrey is up there. Maybe it isn't his fault and it's the scheme but we are God awful on short yardage and can never plow forward.

Skip's new show without Shannon tanked in ratings this past year. FS1 needs a new village idiot to make people mad.

Well it certainly hasn't won them any Super Bowls in recent history.

PFF is such a garbage clickbait site.

[jdubya]

I wonder what their numbers would look like if Kittle was drafted by the Chiefs instead of the Niners and if Kelce was drafted by the Niners?

This 100% . I was coming to say him. The dude has lived off his first couple of seasons and is nowhere close to being as good as people.wanna act like he is.
