Shannon Sharpe Joins First Take

[EzekelRAGE]

Game 2 against chiefs he walked off the field with a lead

It was a 2 point lead and KC kicked a 51 yard field goal. Maybe if Joe scored a TD on that drive instead of settling for a field goal, they win.He had some trash throws in that game as well.
He had a couple bad throws in the washington game too. 2 of them was straight up overthrown. One was the throw to the endzone where he threw it so high the receiver couldnt even get his other leg down before going out of bounds. He did the same thing earlier along to sidelines going to the endzone.

If Bengals had won the 2 other games, this loss wouldnt even be that big of a convo for the talking heads. Now all the talking coming to a head because they gave Joe grace for the 0-2 start.

Shannon and Canty are the only two I seen keeping it consistent.

I don’t have to agree with any side. Hold the QBs to the same standard. The media analyze Herbert, Burrow, and Allen on a curve. Quick to talk down on Lamar and Dak.

Swagu was disgusting doing all that performative c00ning

Its fine to disagree and apply nuance/logic. I actually agree with you.

But thats ignored when its Lamar or Dak.

Could you imagine how they would be goin in on Trevor if he was black? Came in hyped and has failed so hard.

They were speaking facts,
It’s ridiculous to think that CC didn’t deserve to be on that Olympic team. SS said it I eat she was then better than Taurasi and the one girl hadn’t even played that season.

All them excuses they gave was dumb and the way CC finished the season proved they were hating.

Just cause I find the whole discussion about this topic to be disingenuous and racial proxy war more than anything, it’s tough to argue she didn’t deserve to be on the team since the #1 WNBA overall pick has only not played on the women’s team twice (in Olympic yrs). One was a foreigner and the other was Sabrina Ionescu and that was only because COVID cancelled it and she didn’t make the 2021 squad. Besides that, I kinda wish the sport would go back to being irrelevant

That' sorta the point I was getting at. Burrow's health is never brought up, but Lamar was killed for a long time for not being available.
Bengals and Ravens were both 0-2. joe/Bengal's excuse was "they always start slow" but Ravens possibly being 0-3 and how this was a must win game was what ran the topics for talking heads.

Like the excuse of the defense failing Joe. Pat faced the same critiscism a couple years ago before KC's defense got top notch. I remember Shannon and others saying "Pat knows the defense cant stop anything so it's on him to go and score TDs since he cant rely on a defensive stop".

Edit: just checking out the tweet above and I see Shannon made the same argument lol

"Grading Burrow "on a curve"?" + "Media bias towards Burrow?"....I'm actually impressed they had those topics....must have some black folks on staff

I don't agree with a lot of what Shannon says...but he's consistent

No black QB is getting the Trevor hype

Cam Newton was deserving of it

I get it but I’m saying it’s just as bad when people wanted to minimize her talent and impact just because they don’t want the white girl to get all the credit.

in a year we will be talking about Juju and these same people will be going out of their way to emphasize how she is better than CC.

This is what happens when the wnba never had a crossover star before, eventually they will have a few and the discourse will be more normal

Gilbert Arenas said this when all this chatter started around CC/AR coming. The WNBA wasnt/isnt prepared for girls with the followings/stardom they have.

Is it just me but deep inside alot of these old heads are angry at the fact these guys are making more money they ever dreamed of. You think Joe Borrow and alot of these guys going to be grinding it out on the sport networks when they retire?

tom brady is

And look how much money he got upfront vs what someone like Shannon had to grind for years post retirement. Plus I don't think TB is doing it just for the money but just an excuse not to watch his kids on the weekends

As if people needed more evidence that sensationalism and nonsense is done on these shows to drive viewership/ratings/clicks

Guarantee the title of the YouTube clip will be something like "Shannon Sharpe's HOT take makes Marcus Spears walk off the SET!

Lol
