  1. Take the Quarterback. I think they were right to give Fields another run last year. But there is no progress as a passer from the pocket. Move him (you will get a mid round pick), draft Williams (as long as you are satisfied with the person).
  2. Yea I am not surprised Nick Wrong doesn't know the rule. He barely knows his own name.
  3. I don't know why it is the rule but the overall rationale of the 5 minute timing rules (out of bounds is the same the only time the clock stops on out of bounds is inside 2 minutes 1st half and inside 5 second) is to preserve time in the game to encourage close finishes.
  4. Yea pre-snap penalties the clock will stop but the ref can start the play clock on ready for play rather than on the snap.
  5. Nope. By rule the clock stops whether declined or accepted under 5 minutes. It actually shocks me so many regular NFL fans don't know this.
  6. Because inside the final 5 minutes a penalty stops the clock whether enforced or declined.
  7. The 9ers have to win it this year unless major injuries bite. It is all set up for them. They have one more year of the Purdy cheat code before they likely have to pay him. At which point their route gets a lot tougher.
  8. I am not familiar with his work beyond the odd short that pops up on youtube. But I am familiar with Rodgers' bullsh*t.
  9. It wouldn't be in the UK. If a court held that a reasonable person was like to interpret it way. But your defamation laws are much more laissez faire so maybe it would be over there. But even if it is legal it doesn't make it the right thing to do. Rodgers is a ####### though. I have always thought that about him, however great he was.
  10. I mean he didn't say it. But he definitely inferred it.
  11. I don't expect Leslie to get hired as a HC this cycle. If he is willing to be a DC again next year he will get a job at that level. But there are almost always guys less capable than Leslie hired as Head Coaches. Brandon Staley was one of them. Chargers gonna Charger.
  12. He is under contract. So I think technically yes.
  13. Where on one of Allen's ints did I argue the opposite. And secondly, I have not argued here that David played this perfectly. That has never been the crux of my argument. My argument it is was a mistake from Josh. He threw a ball up that in my mind he should have eaten. It was the first quarter of a football game. 3 points isn't a disaster. No need to guess on a throw. I don't need to persuade you. Josh Allen told you he was hurting the team.
  14. In your mind, sure.
  15. I'm not a big EPA guy either so I might be misinterpreting the chart haha.
  16. This chart is interesting.... if I am reading it right it says the Bills EPA is pretty good and that Josh produces strongly against it. The second half of that is not particularly a surprise, cos Josh is incredible. I am surprises that the Bills offense has the third highest EPA though. No surprised that the 49ers is the best, they have Kyle Shanahan but it suggests the Bills overall offensive efficiency has been better that one might imagine.
  17. Yes, but again, not relevant to the conversation I was having.
  18. I think Flo was harshly treated in Miami, but I don't know if I'd have him on the same tier as those other guys.
  19. I think they were hoping for a mutual parting of the ways type deal like Coughlin in New York or Payton in New Orleans. Bill has dug his heels in and said "nope, if you don't want me you can fire me, I have a contract and I am staying." Now faced with actually firing him I suspect the Krafts are suffering from sweaty palms... among other things.
  20. It isn't. I didn't make it one. But Josh didn't throw the ball to the boundary. If he had, he wouldn't have been picked. It would have been incomplete and they would have been kicking a FG. He didn't know where Gabe was he was falling backwards and he just guessed and let the ball go.
  21. Or conversely you will be a fan of the Quarterback and still start each assessment entirely neutrally and look objectively at is he at fault or not. For example, two that immediately come to mind this year where Josh was just pure unlucky against the Giants and the Buccs where tips that might otherwise have fallen safe just happened to fall to a defender. The Denver one you mentioned yourself I think he throws it harder than he needed to but Gabe can come down with that ball. The hail mary at the end of the Jets first half... not a mistake by Josh. There are INTs that I don't put on him. The one against the Bengals I put on the receiver as well (was that Gabe too? Can't recall). So this isn't a blame Josh for everything. It is try and be objective about each incident in isolation.
  22. Yep. That is Buffalo and Kansas City now. Some of the Fins fans want to swap Tua for Justin frickin Fields. They'd commit 1st degree murder for Pat or Josh.
  23. He doesn't. He admitted himself above that because he is a Josh fan he finds a way to pin mistakes on others.
