  1. Yea. He didn't play very well last week but he hasn't even rotated in that I have seen. Which is odd.
  2. This time last year we had an OC who thought motion was "overrated." Remember that?
  3. This game better be good. Im flagging already. Coffee time.
  4. Correct me if I'm wrong but Edwards hasn't been on the injury report has he?
  5. Yea I do think the back judge had a poor view. He was square on behind trying to look through two guys.
  6. Howard Simon's basement is legendary. His story the other week where they are decorating the room his wife usually watches in (he called it the "family room") and there is no furniture in there so she asked if she could watch in the basement with him and he said no and put her on a single kitchen chair with a tv on top of a cardboard box in the part decorated family room was awesome I do prefer watching by myself tbh. In the UK the thing I particularly despise is watching with people who don't understand. Occasionally around Xmas for example I might watch a game at my sister's and my brother in law will sit watching and commenting despite having only a basic rudimentary understanding of what is going on. That pisses me off and I have to bite my tongue. I have a couple of mates (one Jags fan, one Rams fan) who I can watch with who understand the game. But that is it really. My other half prefers not even being in the house with me when I'm watching Arsenal or the Bills because of how tense and uptight I can get but does an alternative tv room, fully furnished with sofa and proper tv (sorry Howard) to retire to should being out of the house not be possible!
  7. Yea Tepper is a prat. Although I'm having no excuses made for Frank Reich. He underachieved his talent in Indy as well. He just isn't a good Head Coach. If it turns out next week she is dating Andy Dalton then the ***** really will hit the fan.
  8. See I don't agree with this. They can win the Superbowl in the small ball offense and stout, opportunistic defense. I know that because they just did it last season. It is still gonna take a very good team to beat them. I'm just not sure how many teams they are gonna blow out on route.
  9. The thing is they were still a small ball offense even in the playoffs last year. They let an undermanned Bills team hang around and could have lost. They beat the Ravens scoring 17 and basically relying on their redzone defense and then they were small ball in the Superbowl too but for one bomb to Hardman. While I think the Chiefs can improve on what they are doing now I am not sure that is by playing differently so much as it is just doing small ball better.
  10. I hate them because they are petulant as *****. The complaint on our first goal today and the way they surrounded the ref was disgusting. The mood was set when Rodri dived to try and get Havertz sent off after 10 seconds. That he looks like he has done his knee trying to dive for a penalty later ib the half may be karma.
  11. I agree Mahomes can play better than he is now. My point isn't about whether this is the best they can be. It is about this being the style that they need to be. And on Worthy there is just a lot of work to do. He isn't a route runner and when they just line him up wide and try and run vertical DBs are getting physical with him at the line. How quickly he comes along who knows. Maybe by the playoffs he is there and then it changes the way this offense and as such the team can play. But right now? This is who the Chiefs offense has to be in terms of style - run and throw short. I think the Hollywood Brown loss is bigger than credited. He would have given them the space to bring Worthy along slowly.
  12. I agree with this FWIW. Although I don't think we have any top refs currently in England. The standard I see in Champions League games and at the Euros in the summer is way better than we have to contend with on a week to week basis in the Premier League.
  13. I actually don't think it was. The Rice one against Brighton (also for delaying a restart) 3 weeks ago WAS a BS soft call when he rolled the ball about a foot. But the Premier League has made kicking the ball away to delay a restart a point of emphasis this season, Trossard volleyed the ball away already on a booking. It was idiotic. And it definitely cost us 2 points. If Arsenal have a complaint today it is where 7 minutes of added time came from when the ball was in play 35 minutes 2nd half (the joint highest in any 2nd half so far this season). But we'd have played until Man City equalised anyway.
