Dear Brian Daboll, -Do you stink as an OC?
mrags replied to #34fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Well, let’s see, with the exception of 2015 when he misses 4 games, he had his worst season since 2012 when he also missed 4 games. And if you consider the fact that he might have had his worst career output since 2010 when he was just his 2nd year and still missed games. He also had his worst yards per carry of his career at 4.0. http://www.nfl.com/player/leseanmccoy/79607/profile He also finished this season with only 131 yards in his final 3 games this past season. https://www.foxsports.com/nfl/lesean-mccoy-player-game-log You can believe whatever you’d like but the guy is on the wrong side of 30. He’s getting worse, not better. And the point of me posting all this has nothing to do with Shady and has everything to do with our lame duck offensive coordinator that has never had an offense with over 3,500 passing yards and QBs that have never done well. And that includes Tom Brady’s worst statistical season in the last decade, the Chiefs at their worst in years, and the Browns. Lol. -

I agree OP. After doing some research (wasn’t hard to look it up) I noticed in his time in the league as an offensive coordinator the most passing yards his QBs have thrown for is something like 3,500. When he was an “offensive assistant” in New England, Tom Brady threw for less TDs than he had in about 10 years and about the same with the yards. So so before I looked into him at all I was ok with the hire. Now I just feel like we’re going to have a worse offense than this past year. The only thing that could change it is who we have at QB. If we get lucky in the draft or with a FA that could change things. Other than that, I’m not optimistic about this year with an aging RB that has slowed down orbjeen hurt in each of the last 3 seasons. -
Ok. So after looking at setting after setting After setting I found that turning the Motionflow off almost eliminates any issues. Which kind of sucks because I actually like that setting. However I’m not sure it does anything for you with football or any other sport for that matter. I took some videos so you can you can see what I’m talking about. Not 100% easily recognized but I feel you can see what I’ve been talking about. If you want to see just PM me your phone number and I’ll send them to you. Heres another thing I noticed and I haven’t been able to decipher as to what setting it’s better with, only that I do know it’s better on some settings and I believe it might be the Motionflow. The scroll at the bottom of the screen on nfl network for example when I’m watching these games. Sometimes they are crystal clear, and other times they are not so clear. I am pretty sure it has to do with movement on the actual tv and processing everything at once. Like I said tho, sometimes it’s crystal clear and others it looks unclear and sometimes it looks like it’s juddery vs smooth

I wonder if I record it on my phone and could send to you if you would actually be able to see it. Sometime tonight or tomorrow I’ll try recording it (might be better if I try the YouTube video because it’s more noticeable). If it comes out ok, I’ll message you for your phone number (the file will be too big here) and maybe you can see what I’m speaking of. It’s almost always what previous issues were with these TVs where the Hz rates couldn’t keep up with the motion without having blur, or what they call tile-ing. Makes me wonder if the Z9D has these issues, or the 930 or 940e. Because they have the x1 extreme processor. All these TVs are 120hz so that’s the only thing that makes sense as to why they are different. Anyway, I’m nitpicking like crazy now and know why I never just impulse buy things. Because if I couldn’t return this $2500 mistake I’d be seriously pissed. I just need to find out what other options are better. I may go with the LG oled C7 because it’s thw same price. Take this back, get the C7 and bring it home to see if there’s any issues. If I’m good then I’ll keep it. If not, then the Z9D it is. I hate how picky I am
-
It’s not blooming really. Doesn’t have to do with color bleeding at all. The ball is like a ghost ball. It’s more of a tiling issue than anything.
-
Not nearly as bad as the YouTube video was. The YouTube video seemed like every single pass. On this game on DTV it feels like any deep bombshell that have a lot of loft and velocity, and any short throws that are lasers. My buddy has the 930e and I had him record this game so that I can watch his as well. Oddly he said yesterday that he’s never had any issues but now he’s saying similar things but he believes it’s when the ball is thrown up deep you lose it in the lights. I think he is now ruined with his tv too. Now im gonna think about the oled again because they are awesome. Even though the burn in scares the piss out of me.

Actually it’s Lancaster NY. Suburb of Buffalo. Thanks for the offer. Maybe I’ll just buy one on my own. How does it work?
-
I was doing so much research on watching videos, reading reviews it was making my mind numb. In the end I went to Best Buy to look at the few sets side by side and that’s why I chose the 900e. Because based on price and qualify from what I saw, they were close enough to not justify spending an extra $1000-1500. But now that the 900 is sitting in my living room and it’s lookong great at times, things like watching football and I can’t see the ball when it’s in the air is an issue. If it wasn’t for that I could live with it. But that’s a big issue. I live in Lancaster

I’m recording a reply of a game today. In fact I think it starts in about an hour. If everything looks good I’m going to keep the tv. If it doesn’t and I cannot mess with the adjustments to make it look better I’ll be taking this one back and getting something else. At that point I’ll be looking at either the 940e, Z9D, or A1 oled. Im really hoping it looks ok but now that I’ve noticed this issue I am nitpicking everything about it. Your right, it’s a huge rabbit hole and there’s no real end and every tv has its ups and downs
-
Ok. So I’ve found a few flaws that are bothering me about the TV and make me rethink things. So, the other night right before bed, I decided I wanted to see what football was going to look like on the new set. So I opened up YouTube and searched for some 2017 highlights. Quickly I noticed a aura like bubble around anyone running around (seemed to go away after the video buffered a little) but what did not go away is when the ball is thrown. Once the ball leaves the fingertips of the QB, it almost disappears completely. When it is visible it is almost like a shadow, shifting across the screen like the processing is trying to catch up with the play. Now.... I know that because it is YouTube, it is most likely the reason why it’s an issue. But with there being no actual football on right now I’m getting nervous. There’s a replay of a game coming up on NFL network this week. I’m recording it and hoping it shows that I’m worried about nothing. But with all that said, I can’t stop thinking the Z9D is a significantly better set and I should bite the bullet and return this one for the Z9D. Another thing I found out is that of the 4 hdmi inputs on this TV, only 2 of them are 4K. Between that, the processor, and the better picture quality I’m really thinking about changing this thing up. Whats your thoughts?
-
I watched Baby Driver last night. Was pretty good. But I’ll say this, the other day I was flipping through hbo channels to see what was in and Warcraft was on. Boy was that about the most incredible picture quality I’ve ever seen on a TV. It looked like it was real.
-
Played a little bit of COD today in the new TV. Man we’re the graffix awesome. So much better clarity. I was able to see players from much farther when I couldn’t see them before. I haven’t played in a while and boy was I rusty, but I enjoyed playing regardless
-
I seriously need sunglasses to watch this thing. I’m telling you, if you wanted bright, this is it. Wow. Lights up my whole room. I guess it helps it’s 75” and covers about a quarter of my wall. Light from everywhere. I just don’t really want to get into anything else at all. Tried Battlefield 1 and didn’t like that either. Same with unchartered

Has anybody seen Crap Throwing Monkey?
mrags replied to ExiledInIllinois's topic in Off the Wall Archives
I don’t know what that’s supposed to mean -
No I don’t. The only games I play are Madden, COD, and GTA
-
I played a few minutes of Madden and it was awesome. No chance to play CoD yet
-
I’m gonna say this.... now that this thing is at home I’m my living room, I feel like I need suntanning goggles to look at it. You don’t need to spend all the extra cake on the brighter 930. Just saying. Save some money and get the 900 home. Worst case, if you don’t like it you could always trade up I got it at the Best Buy at the Galleria. I went o line last night and saw there was a Z9D open box for 2399. I was intending to pull the trigger on it. Except when I got there they said they didn’t have any. Apparently it pulls up open box items to any store working 250 miles. There was one at a store about 110miles away. I kade the guy jump through hoops for me today. Had him open up a 50ft HDMI cable to compare the Z9D and the 900e on the same programming. It really was hard to tell the differences. I know the Z is much better but for the lack of absolute difference between the 2 TVs i couldn’t justify spending the extra $1k. I ended up getting a Samsung 4k player cheap and then some other stuff. Gonna upgrade my PlayStation to the pro this week or in the coming weeks with the money I saved.
-
Just pulled the trigger on the 900e. Honestly, side by side with the oled it looked better than the OLED. The blacks weren’t as dark but the brights were off the charts better. The Z9D was better. But it wasn’t clear cut from where the TVs were sitting. I was about 10-12 ft away from each tv playing the same movie and it was very close. I know side by side it’s not comparable. But if it’s hard to tell in the store with low light in the Magnolia rooms, it’s going to be hard to tell in my living room. You could see it the most in the black levels and edging. At the end end of the day I saved some money. Bought a 4K player, a few movies, new HDMI cables. Etc.
-
Lol. Beat me to it
-
That damn Reed83 is really making me feel like I need the Z9D. It’s a huge difference in price especially considering it’s the 65” vs the 75”. But after looking at it, $3499 isn’t that terrible. I just don’t know when I’ll be able to afford it. So I may hold off a little bit. End of March or beginning of April might be in the cards for me. In the end, I’ll get a chance to view the new 900F if I wait anyway. Just stop. You sold me. Lol. Im sure my mind will change more times in the next coming days and everything but I feel like I’m gonna hold out for the Z9D and if that doesn’t actually happen, not emoney in my TV pot will have been collected and I’ll make the decision when it comes.
-
If I decide to downgrade in size to a 65” I feel like I just wait for the Z9D in a few months. When I have more money saved up and hopefully the price of the Z9D drops a few hundred bucks. I currently have a 52” so a step up to 65” would be big but I want the big boy. If I want bigger in the future I’ll orobably just go with a projector. Unless the price on 100” TVs comes down. Lol
-
I’d definately go with the 900f over the 900e too. The problem is the 900f is $3999 for the 75” and the 900e is $2499 for the 75”. The 900f is replacing the 940e. So yeah, I’d rather have the F but for the price, I just don’t know how. The updates for only the apps and not the inputs is an issue. And that brings me back to the Samsung Q7 now because the separate box for all their inputs can be replaced in the future. Grrrrrrrrrr!!!! This is a never ending revolving door or crap now. Which tv are you talking about in regards to playing around with the black levels compared to the LED? The Samsung? Yaah, I know the 900e isn’t close to the Z9 but for that price I just don’t think I can do it
-
The 75” Z9D is still going for $6999. If you could have had for $5500 I say you should have got it. But you didn’t make a bad decision at all. If if I could get the 65” for $3k I’d do it. Right now I’m teetering back to the 900e because of the price and the size.
-
Yup. You are right on that. And that gives me more to think about. If I can find a sick deal on a Z9D somewhere is it worth it to just bite the bullet and make that choice. My issue is finding one on a sick deal, and being happy with a 65” when I really want the 75”
-
Thanks. Yeah. I’ve been reading AVSF and Rtings for weeks now. Like I’ve said I know what I believe (as do most others) to be the best TVs our there. But I just don’t know if it’s worth it for me to get one over another. So you were correct about the edgelighting on the 930e. But they did say the new 900F would replace all 900 models from 2017. If your feeing crazy, they have a Z9D 75” open box for sale for $6k. Man I wish that was in my price range right now. They said the black levels are almost as good as the OLED but you get the brightness of the LED. Im now in the same predicament that you are in. According to them the 900e is better than the Q7. Based off Rtings.com that is the same info. The 900e is better. Of course in the store I could see them both but not side by side. And definitely not in the same programming. That’s something that Stereo Advantage will and can do for you. They have them all in a very close proximity and can all be on the same programming. Just an FYI on the new models, Best Buy said they expect the new models to be in the stores and on display by mid March. So your about 2 weeks away from finding them. With that said, they told me the 900 models from 2017 are no longer being stocked and are on back order. They also said once the new ones come in, all the old ones will be removed from the walls there. So you won’t be able to see them side by side. Like I said, I’m in the same boat as you now. I’m thinking I want the 900e or 900f over the Q7. The price on the 900e is less than $200 more than the Q7 and that makes it all comparable to me.
