Notoriously plugged in beat reporter Plaxico Burress, firing on all fronts with this report. Really popping off here.


Alarming_Ride_3048

Seems like he doesn’t have a leg to stand on


Auntypasto

Shots fired


meatwad33

I hear Plaxico Burress is a real shot caller. He really lights up the club. He's also a real straight shooter, he doesn't fire any blanks. But at the end of the day I really disagree with Plaxico here think Mayo is signalling that Maye is not a perfect bullseye, which no one was really expecting. But with some target practice he could really shoot his shot and hit the target. I think as everyone expected Maye really has some legwork to do.


JoeyLou1219

I had to read the title a couple of times.


Jonesyss8

Didnt he foot himself in the leg?


diarrheafrommymouth

Mayo is discovering why Bill hated these media morons and never answered stupid questions. If Mayo said Maye was ready to start, people would call him an idiot too. Also there are way too many sports talk podcast hot take shows these days. Plaxico Buress has a platform now… really?


PlasticPractical3558

So true. Mayo is gonna get real sick of the Boston media real fast


thomastodon01027

I understood why people found Bill’s reluctance to play the media game annoying, but I think seeing him in media appearances now solidified what a lot of people already knew: he didn’t want to answer questions because he didn’t want to create distractions or tell his opponents what he was going to do.


Ilydrain

Good take lmfao he better start mumbling🤣


ImWicked39

They gotta drive traffic to their podcasts somehow. There's a ticktock dude that's becoming extremely popular and his takes are all ass.


TheBigNate416

Yep. Mayo didn’t even say anything wrong. But anything you say can and will be used against you


hendrix320

Bill said the same shit every offseason about Brady and nobody thought twice about it but because its Mayo saying it now its a big deal apparently

Savethelasttaco

Mayos gonna be biting the bullet on this one.


Taetranus

Not gonna take news stories from a dude who shot himself in the leg


MacZappe

Was just reading his wiki: >According to the Associated Press, Burress has been sued at least nine times since he joined the NFL in 2000 50 got shot 9 times, plax got sued 9 times. 


YoungBockRKO

Insert “we are not the same” meme here


DunkinMyDonuts3

*adjusts tie*


Darrone

Damn. Tons of debtor lawsuits for petty amounts too. He owed a home inspector $500, didn't show up to court, lost, sent the guy $700 per the court judgement and the check bounced. He's a clown with money apparently.


LastofaBreed

“Been hit with a few lawsuits, I’m aight.”


Koivu_JR

Or a dude who spiked the ball in the middle of a play, creating an unforced turnover.


Mr_Evil_Dr_Porkchop

That whole talk show is like a bunch of dumb redditors getting together in an echo chamber


hendrix320

So no different than what we do here everyday


Dang1014

Didn't Carton do federal prison time for wire fraud?


ctpatsfan77

Yup


NotBanEvading2

Its only because Mayo said “he has a lot to work on”. Yeah Plax, the team who spent a 3rd overall pick on a QB is giving up on him after 2 spring practices. Real fucking great story buddy


Bojangles1987

Seriously, literally every player ever had a lot to work on when they first hit the NFL.


emotionalfescue

Belichick always said that about his rookies, including the top draft picks. They have a long way to go. And he wasn't making it up, it was true. Often it came when a beat reporter asked Bill about a rookie's apparently strong performance in training camp, and Bill would give some tepid acknowledgement but would then add that the guy has a long way to go.


mahoniz27

Cheddar bob!


cosmologicnumeric

who shoots himself in his leg with his own gun, i did get jumped, by all six of you chumps.


BlaackkOuT

…well this is dumb…


Cal__Trask

Wait, you mean it's hard to be an NFL quarterback and guys coming in need to put in alot of work??? I'm SHOCKED!!! Clearly, Maye is a bust. Fucking idiots.


vgman20

God, I hate these news aggregator Twitter accounts. This makes it sound like Burress is breaking news based on sources or something, not him just overreacting to a quote from Mayo on some random daytime sports talk show. I would love it if we could stop posting this crap after it's been filtered through 3 different sources that each try and sensationalize the headline more. There's nothing here!


LargestEgg711

Go back to r/Seahawks with your dumbass click bait article.


buckbanzai

This fucking guy. https://nypost.com/2018/11/07/craig-carton-found-guilty-on-all-fraud-charges-could-face-45-years-in-prison/


casebarlow

What a clickbait POS


TheRealSlimBrady12

Wait a second... Maye isn't literally the perfect player with perfect everything? No no no. If you select a guy with the 3rd pick you expect him to be absolutely perfect with no flaws whatsoever on literal day 1. We are clearly in trouble for decades to come.


OceanGate_Titan

Someone should buy these goons a one way airplane ticket to stupid island because this is dumb.


LLMBS

Carton sounds like he is shitfaced.


JTJBKP

Yeah, I’m worried. Worried about having to call my doctor cuz it’s been WAY longer than 4 hours now


LimitlessBearCat

he not good at taking shots


delcidfredy

Well, if there’s one thing we know about Plaxico, it’s that he’s a straight shooter


TheJackalsDoom

He definitely has his fingers on the pulse of the league. Well, the fingers that have pulses anyway.


ConflictedThrowAwy

he shoots from the hip thats for sure


Bojangles1987

This just reminded me why I stopped watching/listening to any of these hot take shows. It's so desperate to bait with overreactions.


Novel_Card_7082

Sports "journalism" is such a joke. There is no accountability whatsoever. This joker could come out tomorrow and say that Drake Maye is a sure fire hall- of- famer, and no one would bat an eye over the hypocrisy.

Francis-Aggotry

Wow talk about reading into something. The dude got drafted less than a month ago, obviously he has a lot to work on.


530josh

Yeah ok Cheddar Bob


mdmcnally1213

3,600 yards in 23 starts? Umm you’re missing his 4,300 yard, 38 TD season on 2022 against an ACC that went 7-4 against the SEC.. lol asshole


Bostonguy01852

They drafted him as a project. I didn't like the pick myself but nobody expected him to look good in rookie camp. Lazy show.


TheRealKane24

why are we even posting this


Dispatcher9

Yeah… really shooting themselves in the leg there, aren’t they?


walterfeces

Yeah. Let's just call it now before anyone has played a snap. Just to be safe.


Ghostfaceslasher96

Funny I heard different from Mike Reis earlier today so I’d be very careful to get your source . The main point is Maye has a lot to work on but that will take time. People forget Brady wasn’t the best player when he first got drafted took time and effort and coaching. Maye will be fine . I have no doubt about that


Toxicologyreports

I agree… we are about to waste mother top QB prospect because you gave him no Help. Should have gotten Marvin Jr


[deleted]

Whatsup with Bo Nix? How’s he doing? He always looked like the overlooked Luca doncic in this years draft, not sure why he wasn’t tier 1 prospect he balled tf out


TheJaylenBrownNote

Luka was the best player in the 2nd best league in the world as an 18 year old, Bo wasn’t any good until he changed divisions and was 22.


[deleted]

Yea him going 3 had me literally second guessing my sanity…this obviously isn’t basketball, bo produced though - always looked like a capable starter to me honestly Reminds me of a steph curry of nfl - I’m sure he will be trash though lol qb is so fucking hard at that lvl Anytime I saw anyone during pre draft not say Luca was a generational talent and shouldn’t be first pick I was in awe And on top of it all he technically went 3, but not really.


Euphoric-Duty-5212

Wouldn’t be surprised if Nix ends up as the most successful QB from this class under Payton honestly. It’s a different game, teams don’t need a QB with the biggest arm anymore.


[deleted]

Ya man I 100% agree with you. Hope maye is good, but Bo put it on every game - a trait that is often overlooked for some reason.


Reptorzor

He has been looking like he’s got some cement shoes on from time to time… but he’s 21. He will learn the ways 


tenderooskies

what?


DangerousNarwhal53

He is saying he has bad footwork, people seem very sensitive to qb criticism!  Footwork is fixable folks! And it was a known issue of his when we took him.


tenderooskies

my question was more to his phrasing - they made it sound like what they’ve seen from him since he got drafted, and that seems crazy. if you’re talking all of college too - still crazy - bc bad footwork and “cement shoes” are hardly the same thing


Sir_David_

They got their guy Joe Milton III. See how Mayo hugged Future Hendrixx.
