Orange is the new blue

I'm surprised the players want their names on the back

I agree. My disagreement was labeling that "reporting"--these guys aren't reporters, nor are they overly bright. Actual reporting reported Josh's insane playoff run. The rest of the reporting focused on the Defensive collapse.

with new OC, has to.

why is he prone?

huh? I told this kid to get away from my car last night..

Wilcotts is well known dullard who struggles to speak, Hopkins is a fresh ex-jock who just retired, Morrison, like the other two, is an "analyst" which means another ex jock who opinionates. None are reporters/journalists, so none of them are "reporting" anything. I couldn't find anything where any of them were blaming Josh, who had just completed a record setting playoff run: 2 games completion g 77% for 632 yards, 9TDs and 0 INT. What did they all say? When did you hear it?

that headshot...

Huh? who said that?

No chance this is true. You're saying every fan knows that most players are already cheating by taking PEDs, plus every fan is aware of the cheating scandals that have rocked the NFL....yet the game is more popular and generating more revenue every year. As for this one player, the overwhelming public sentiment is not that he has broken a sacred trust with them by attempting to stain "the integrity of the game", it's that people feel he's been screwed by the NFL. All you have pointed out is that fans can now assume a ton ("most"?) players lay bets on games through apps like you and I might do. They would be wise to set up accounts not traceable to them. Smarter ones than Ridley have figured this out. Posters here constantly moan about the NFL becoming the WWE---yet here they are! On Sunday/Monday/Thursday, no one cares for a few hours. Gambling or PED--it's all just for show by the NFL. And NO casino is going to stop taking NFL bets in their books---ever.

lol. fact. Highmark holds 71.8K. and the Bills have averaged over 68k only one season since 2017....but they would fill every seat of every game with only Bills fans if there were 80k seats! What's your point? Rams and Chargers have a weak fan base? So what? Everyone said LA was an NFL fan wasteland but that's obviously not true. Look at Vegas--how many "Raiders fans" lived there before they came to town? Yet the stadium draws the biggest gate of all. It's a huge NFL venue and market because of visitors, LA as well--plus lots of transplants. see above.

Exactly. No "hey what's your nickname bro?? Wait--only one nickname per bro!!" for our man JA--he's the rare one. Just wants everyone to have a good time.

I guess we can make any assumption we want as to who's fans are in the stands from here. But it's not a phenomenon unique to SoFi, obviously. "The Chargers and Rams are not only contending with lost time in their bid to attract fans. With the proliferation of apps like SeatGeek and StubHub, through which customers can easily buy and resell tickets, the away fan takeover has become ubiquitous – and not just in Los Angeles. Fans of the Minnesota Vikings flooded Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday for the team’s away game against the Kansas City Chiefs, generating as much noise as the home supporters and performing their signature “skol” chant with impunity. New England Patriots fans turned out in droves for the team’s road game last month against Washington; they did the same two weeks later when the Patriots played at the New York Jets. When iconic teams like the Patriots, Steelers, Packers or Dallas Cowboys come to town, whether in Los Angeles or elsewhere, the home fans are always at risk of being outnumbered. Resale ticket prices are an average of 53% higher than a typical game when the Packers are visiting, according to figures provided by SeatGeek. They are 55% higher for Cowboys road games. That can be enticing for a season-ticket holder, looking to resell a ticket."

facts

SoFi averaged 71,598 (100.1% capacity) for the Rams and 70,240 (98.2%) for the Chargers. Bills had 67,816 (94.7%) at home. http://www.espn.com/nfl/attendance

Not sure that's rare in most locker rooms. Josh is that way too, for one.

pay wall. what makes him the rarest?

the kids do it...

Because it was already reported in 2 other threads hours before this one.

reverse cowgirl

It is? How many of those did he have out of 164 targets? Of his 10 TDs, 5 were under 10 yards, 1 was over 15 yards, none over 20. The rookie who replaced him in Mind had a lot more YPC and significantly more yards before and after the catch per catch. He had TDs of 23, 45 and 50 yards in his 10.--with Cousins tossing the ball. Diggs YAC per suggests he's tackled or goes OOB (or EZ) within 2 long strides of a catch. Josh had only 12 fewer 1st down rushing than Diggs had receiving.

Beasley (3.7) had higher YAC than Diggs (3.2)

Was McCarron sleeping on Kyle Orton's couch when the call came?

Not really. What if both Murray and Jackson have rough seasons? Ravens won't need to pay a premium for that.
