Mike Sando is a Tier Four journalist

[leoram]

it simply amazes me how ESPN broadcasts today five tier levels for QB’s and lists Goff in the fourth category. There’s NOTHING statistically from last year to support such an evaluation. There can only be a slow witted bias from the Fisher era to support this thinking. They claim it was a culmination of 50 talent evaluators that produced this drivel. I suppose they credit everyone BUT Jared for leading the league in scoring last year but these same baffoons simultaneously claim the QB position is the most impactful player on any team. To me, this is as accurate as my weather app that says 0% chance of rain for the day as it’s storming outside. There is no accountability in sports journalism or weather forecasting.

Rant complete

Wait, Sando qualifies as a journalist?? Or did you just misspell "hack"?

If you find a link, would love to see it.

I think he gets downgraded by some analysts based on the impression that McVay was bending the QB communication rules to call a lot of Goff's audibles last season. Whatever the case, his numbers were great, his growth from year one was huge and we have every reason to believe he will keep improving. I love the doubters. Makes winning that much more sweet.

Could Jared bump up to tier 3 if he gets a cringe public blow job from a porn slut with a lazy cottage cheese azzz?

Sando's probably still crying over his Seahags getting creamed by the Rams.

I saw the section coming up on ESPN (I think it was) and promptly started watching baseball. I pretty much figured it would only make me roll my eyes.

He's just making a fool of himself. Dude is an idiot and doesn't know anything more about the game than the average fan bellied up at the bar next to you.

I’d love to see the list of execs, total up their average wins last year, and compare them to the Ram’s win total.

Sando's full of BS. There is no way execs around the league rank Jared in the fourth tier of QBs. Absolute and total idiocy.

Talking heads across the media are all hacks who don't do any signifigant research. They google a few things for facts and run with it. Lazy and sloppy, but they get paid for it. Team sites just give basic stuff. You want any in depth news about your team or players you have to go to fan forums. I'm beginning to think that's where the talking heads go to get their material.

 

[Farr Be It]

Just looked at it. Doesn’t it say Jared is tier 3? (I would say tier 2 trending to 1)

 

[OldSchool]

Didn't like Sando when he was our team guy for ESPN and haven't seen anything to make me change my mind.

I can't see the full article since I'm not an insider. But I'm sure Goffs section includes something about being carried by McVays offense.

I can't hate on Mike. He and I used to have really in-depth conversations via Twitter DM back in the day (before he left to Seattle). I tried like hell to get him to do a chat here too, but his employer (Disney) wouldn't allow it. Fags.

Ahh fuck I ain't paying to read some dude's random opinion.

If there's a bigger waste of money than ESPN INsider, I dunno what it is.

I mean, I'm brushing teeth over a fur sink (I went with fox because the Chinchilla holds on to the toothpaste too much) and this is a smart purchase compared to ESPN INsider.

a slow witted bias

Perfect turn of a phrase right there.

WTF is a cringe blowjob.

Is there biting involved?

I don't like the sound of that!
