“And for any reason, that he played a minute, a microscopic percentage, a zero percentage, or whether it was a legitimate criticism of the way he headed during the project process, it was the result. Now he has the opportunity to respond. I think that screaming at the NFL is not productive.”
Kiper put the burden on the League for his appropriate lack of assessment with regard to the quarters.
“Boomer Esiason was not happy when he was a second round choice,” said Kiper. “Tom Brady was not happy. They fell. How they turned out? My point is, receiving, the NFL has been without any idea for 50 years when it comes to evaluating the quarters. Clueless.
“They have no idea what they are doing in terms of quarter evaluation. This is proof. There is proof of this. They can say:” We know exactly what we are talking about with the quarters. “They don’t.”
The debate continued from there when Kiper defended Sanders for exsed confidence before the project.
