No worries, I'm usually quicker on the uptake.

Baltimore was doing their best to acclimate. It was 33 in Maryland and they were practicing with the field house doors wide open and fans blowing the cold in. Shame for them it will be Carhartt Thermals+Ski Mask and Hat Cold up here.

I just took...45 seconds to look at Pro Football Reference on this subject. JA has led 13 career 4th Quarter Comebacks and 21 career game winning drives. Those guys are the definition of hacks.

I saw that and thought "Ed Reed tells everyone how to stop any QB who's ever played. Startling Insights".

Baltimore loves to attack our DEs and OLBs in the running game. I'm not really worried about them attacking the middle of the D. The perimeter is a different story, especially if they can get our Corners hesitating or confused in run support.

Don't worry. Joe Brady got a fat slice of Humble Pie in the first matchup. We'll be ready.

Uh, Obviously!

The Spartans had a word, pseudoandreia, to describe all the shouting, weapon clashing and pump-up speeches the other side gave their guys before a battle. They thought it was a sign of nerves winning out over discipline. The Spartans did the same thing at every battle. They sang a hymn to the goddess Artemis as they stood in ranks, then advanced to contact in silence. It didn't work every time, but nobody enjoyed facing it.

Rousseau's length and athleticism should be on display in the defensive gameplan. I'd hate to see him playing inside the tackles on anything but the most obvious passing downs.

Oddly enough, Nick Wright of all people has made this exact argument.

Middle School, the most useless, forgettable part of the American education system, is the first and last time most of us are required to be Metric experts. Used to be you couldn't pass on to High School without knowing Metric. Then we forget it all because most of us never use it again.

What in the hell has Minnesota been doing for a week? Did they practice or prepare at all?

The Vikings simply want to lose. There's no other explanation. Their coaching staff should be dragged into the streets and shot.

Too many ***** teams.

Irrelevant in this case. Lloyd Austin ran CentCom, is a retired 4 star, sat on defense industry boards, etc.

No it didn't. Joe Brady sucks, he's horrible, in fact I saw him calling plays using one of those foldy things from middle school and a Magic 8 Ball. Total fraud. The NFL should forget he's a person.

Bizarre. I was told all week that Patrick Surtain Jr was going to intercept everything but the coin toss.

Alright, that's the way to do it. The last time I went down and back on same day, I went with friends and drove the to leg. Then I slept in the back of my Jeep Cherokee Sport on the from leg while they drove.

That's a trek. I stopped doing same- day trips to Buffalo when I hit my 30s.

They're saving him for the Chiefs if they get to the AFCCG.

Yuuuuuuppp.

Is the game as bad as the box scores make it look? Herbert's trash.

I've advised a few people here to seek professional help if they're still that frazzled over a football game. There's Nervous Mafia, then there's the SOFT ZONE FIRE MCDERMOTT 13 SECONDS!!!!!! Cult. Who insist on living in the past and reliving past failure. God it's dull.

Good, welcome to the club.
