Agreed, I am ready for the Rams to go down the field by 5 yard penalties/automatic first downs tomorrow night.

They are going to call roughing the passer less which is just good for the game and the right thing to do. They had gone overboard.

It will be hot but not having the sun beating on you will help.

Paper ballots were used for the first time in 2020. What does Bill Barr say?

You don’t have to buy the democrats lies. You can listen to conservatives like Bill Barr, Matthew Pottinger, Pat Cipollone, Ri hard Donahue and many others. You could listen to the 60 something judges who bounced all the BS claims out of court. He had the chance to prove his case. There was no case. Your “facts” prove nothing. You are brainwashed if you think there was widespread fraud that was just allowed. BS! Instead of listening to conservative republicans who bust your theories you want to point to the boogie man.

This is simply wrong. Not sure if you think social media having an affect somehow changes how it should be perceived or something but it is well known that Trump had a very sophisticated targeted ad technique that absolutely had an influence.

You are correct that is what he said. Same idea though. They are not as much of a timing offense as others.

worse Quarterbacks.........whatever

And now he is in a much better organization that the bears

So we need a thread to talk about forms you fill out to buy a gun?

So is his accuracy spotty or can he throw it as well as anyone in the history of the sport? I don't know about the presnap reads but that could be true since he holds onto the ball longer than all other QB's. I think it could be that he does not trust his presnap reads and prefers to know the guy is open and throw it. He said as much with the Simms interview. He is not as much a 1-2-3 ball out on time to a spot.....I am ok with that! He also needs to run people over less often than he was last year.

I find their name to be redundant and also repetitive.

I think sources of propaganda are a key component of the subject here. The topic is very detailed though. I am not sure about the rich guy you are talking about. I feel strongly about stop the steal because it is complete bull crap and that has been proven in court time and again. He had every opportunity to prove a case and the opposite has happened… nothing but made up nonsense. The opposite is actually true he tried to steal the election and I guess you like that because you like him. Is that a hardline? So be it. I also have a hard line position on student loans you can go to that thread and read my position there. The “progressive” stuff is also nonsense. I don’t think trumps win in 2016 was illegitimate. He identified and influenced the right people to get the win, it was shocking and ultimately brought out how powerful social media is.

Alex Jones is angry and serious and yells. He has “sources”….the amount of people who go along with him is astonishing. What cable news station do you watch?

And do you take out your starting RB with the big lead?

What I believe is important is not “balance” but doing enough of both passing and running effectively that the defense must prepare for and defend both. But passing plays should far outweigh rushing plays. One thing we probably won’t see this year under Dorsey is 9 rushing plays from rbs and 18 straight passes and that is a good thing.

Tre tears a lot in November and we are looking at mid season for a return. People wonder how long it will take him to return to form. OBJ tears back in Feb and there seems to be a perception he will be ready about the same time as Tre and have no affects. I do understand no two injuries are the same but people don’t seem to be considering the affects of OBJs injury at all. It is very possible he won’t return to form until next season. We will use significant cap to sign him while he is recovering? I don’t get it

Can we easily get those stats by year further back? It used to be a bigger divide. You can see the shift in just the 5 years shown. Back in the 80s and 90s you had a losing record when passing for 300.

Tell us what “my side” is. Let’s see if you can read. You have no ability to stay on topic.

Complete nonsense. Identical to what trump did?

I don't expect you to understand or care, but your facts are just opinions. It seems you can only see things one way and I doubt that will ever change. When was the last presidential candidate who lost who did not concede and made up lies about widespread fraud. Do you believe there was widespread fraud?

This is exactly what I am talking about, you can only see it one way. If I asked you which side, the left or right actually tried to unconstitutionally steal he presidential election, what would you answer? This is absolutely backed up by facts in terms of 60 some odd court cases in which every nook, cranny, theory was brought to court and there was no substantial fraud found which could have influenced the election. Those are facts.

He sure did cost himself a bunch of money. I don't agree with some of his rhetoric but he made some great plays and gave his all as a Bill on the field. The Bills did what they needed to do for their organization and Beasley did what I guess he needed to do for himself and his teammates who could not stand up for themselves (his words). I think it is somewhat ironic he has turned into one of the guys who will pay the price for taking a stand, something I do not think he thought would happen.

Anyone else watch a doc called "The Big Hack" on Netflix? It's about Cambridge Analytica/facebook and it makes some pretty disturbing assertions. I will say that what they talk about and the conclusions line up with what I believe I have been watching over the last 6 years. Among other things it goes into the 2016 presidential campaign and how it was flipped using AI and identifying/targeting people who were persuadable in key states. They kind of get at how malleable people are in their views and they can be manipulated to hold a position. I think it is widely known but I wonder if most people don't realize how much they can be influenced by propaganda. I am sure people are reading this and saying to themselves "yeah I see it but I am immune to it, I am not one of them", I think its a good exercise to really keep an open mind about that, you may be more persuadable than you realize! If you think you are not being manipulated then there is a good chance you actually are! My opinion is that people on the left and right are all being used as pawns and we all need to open our eyes to it. I often see righties talk about lefties as being sheep and believing anything which I sometimes agree with but if you step back and look at what the Republican Party has become...they are sheep and believe anything being pushed that is anti left. I laugh when I perceive sheep call others sheep but it is getting to the point I dont think it is funny anymore. My background is historically conservative (Republican) but I am a registered independent and have been for many years. I am thoroughly disappointed in what the Republican parts has become. I live in NH where we have a good chunk of independents, they make it easy to vote in primaries as a republican or democrat and I like that flexibility depending on who is running and what the topics are. The AI technology could be state run to try to destabilize a Country and it could be just maximizing advertising revenue, the lines can be blurred a lot. Social Media has been weaponized to change regimes in other areas of the world, is the US immune to that? Could we be experiencing this right now and just don't realize it? I have read about the targeted advertisements and whatnot for years as I am sure many of you have. I do think a big chunk of the population is oblivious and does not realize the AI engines give you what you crave, they want to keep your eyeballs on their content. But there is a secondary affect which is that people get more and more ingrained into a political position because they see something that resonates with them on some level and then they may comment, a friend or relative may back that position up that you did not realize you were aligned on. This helps justify in your mind you are in the right and makes you less likely to consider a different viewpoint. The Trump campaign absolutely dominated the Social Media segment for that campaign. They were able to identify and target the exact people they needed to win the election and it worked. This is partly why the election was a surprise upset and went against the polls. They ask the question "can we ever have a fair election"? Which on one hand I get with the technology that is available today but at the same time, there has always been propaganda and targeted advertising. It's kind of like we used to use rifles and now we can fly a drone from a trailer in Las Vegas and kill a terrorist in Afghanistan on the other side of the world...the technology has just been pushing the limits. There was a time we were more able to discuss politics at work, at family gatherings, etc. My experience is that has changed a lot recently, its a taboo subject where people know generally if uncle Joe is left or right and it is not discussed anymore. My experience is the vast majority only listen to either right wing propaganda or left wing propaganda. There are "facts" on the left and "facts" on the right that we believe shows unequivocally our position is correct. We cannot even agree on what facts are. Do you think the US is being targeted and by some foreign government(s) that is trying to destabilize the USA? Curious what others think about this.

I think the climate affects the wind mitigation approach not “one day something happened”
