  1. Big game for our DL.

     

    They clearly were instructed to slow rush Kyler and didn’t do it well at all to start the game.

     

    But once they figured out what Arizona was doing, they let them loose a little more and Rousseau & Von were dominating off the EDGE.

     

    While the Dolphins have better weapons that Arizona, they don’t have a mobile QB.

  2. Overall I’d give Babich a C and Brady a B

     

    Defense was atrocious in the first half and a lot of it looked like our design was being exploited.  Never seemed like a player talent issue, which fulfilled itself as the defense dominated the Cardinals Offense once they got themselves into better play calls. 
     

    Offense was unstoppable, aside from us stopping ourselves.  Thought we got way too predictable with some of the runs.   Execution was not great, which can be somewhat expected.  Fumble and facemask taking 6-11 points off the board and we let the play clock get to 1 way too often which allowed AZ to perfectly time their run blitzes .. including the Allen keeper at the end of the game that would’ve potentially ended it.

  3. Covid.

     

    Made me realize this election isn’t just about social/fiscal issues.  It’s about much more..

     

    The pseudo-open borders, unrelenting censorship and authoritarian overreach.

     

    Theres an attack on the western world.  And while I wish we had a better option than Donald Trump, he’s the only chance we have to rebuke tyrannical creep from those trying to regain, and expand, powers lost via the Musk acquisition of X, expansion of alt media and rise of populism.

    Joe B is down on the team this year.  Its like night and day compared to the way he talked about the team last year at this time.

     

    He really doesn't like any of the safeties and constantly has sort of implied they are all bad.  He has bishop as inactive sunday, which I actually agree with because of his injuries and missing all of camp.  

     

     


    Yea, the Safeties are certainly a concern, but you’d be hard pressed to find a better trio of corners than Johnson, Benford and Douglas.  He brings up Tre White last year.. ok, just stop.. we felt about Tre this time last year how we feel about Von this year.. maybe, hopefully he can be 80% of the pre-injury guy he was. 
     

    Then talks about our weapons by using data from last year with rookie Kincaid..  cmon.. he’s better than that.  Brady took over Dorsey’s Offense mid-year and Kincaid was a rookie.  Fire Brady into the sun if we only use Kincaid like we did last year. 
     

    That’s where I finished up my workout and turned off.  Cant wait to hear how horrible the rest of the team is later today when I finish his podcast.

  5. I cannot wait for this game. 
     

    Start of season excitement, but also.. I’m so sick of the negative energy. 
     

    Maybe it’s warranted and if so, they get to say they’re right, but some of it is just exhausting when given the reasoning.

     

    Working out this morning listening to Joe B’s podcast (who I really like) but I might as well been lifting to that Sarah McLachlan neglected puppy song. 
     

    It just seems like every criticism of this team is based on every question we have being an abject failure.  
     

    Looking forward to (hoping for) this team proving these folks wrong.

    They brought in the Cheney’s & Bush castoffs to screech about the need to protect corporate power in politics and forever wars. 
     

    Meanwhile, the expansion of MAGA has amplified messaging like this..  Truly a landscape shift that could lead to tangible change in this country for the good.

    Ah the military industrial complex. You think trump and his cronies aren’t a part?  Without our military superiority, our debt destroys us overnight. The dollar crashes and is no longer the dominant currency. Do you believe our military is just for defense?  That’s woke dude. It establishes us as the most formidable superpower. Do you actually believe that trump will cut the military budget?  Do away with all of “ my generals” that he so often bragged about?  You’re buying a bill of bad goods.  He’s stupid but not that stupid.   No, the  defecting Rs are part of the establishment that made America great. The rabble supporting trump are not globally competitive. They win and we all lose.  Not just the “elite”.  And I believe it was a conservative SCOTUS that equated corporations with people.   They’re were wrong but powerful corporations are a strength not a weakness.  But they require guardrails. 


    If this is your worry, it seems strange to be ok with a party remaining in power that has overseen the acceleration of BRICS.

  8. I don’t know how it would look in a Trump Presidency, but the fact we have a political party pushing a movement that includes this is one of the more interesting and exciting things I’ve seen as a millennial in politics..

  9. Just now, Joe Ferguson forever said:

    Nope. The Rs defecting to the D’s are mostly doing it temporarily to rid the country of trash. There are few traditional D’s defecting to trump’s party. They might ( and I might) if the R party returned to its tradition.


    Are they?  Seems the entire Bush Administration now staffs MSNBC. 
     

    Liz Cheney endorsing Colin Allred gives the game away..

     

    These people were conservatives insofar as the party was beholden to corporate interests and the military industrial complex.   Now the Democrats own those descriptors, so one by one, we see them following the $$$ and turning blue.

    No love lost on Cheney. The point is that the R party no longer exists. And many, still with power ( not Cheney himself tho he’s filthy rich) want to change that. As an ex R , I fully support that. 


    We’re having a political realignment. 
     

    Im sure it doesn’t bother you, but it should…

     

    The Republicans defecting to the left are doing so because Democrats are now the party of war and corporations. 
     

    The Democrats defecting to the right are doing so to protect free speech and push back against government control.

  11. And Liz Cheney endorsed Ted Cruz challenger. 
     

    The Cheney’s are loathed by the modern GOP and any holdovers that would be swayed by them just had their justification of Trump being a unique threat wiped away by Liz endorsing Dems down ballot. 
     

    Makes sense.  Trump is the most anti-war President we’ve had in recent memory and all the neocons have jumped ship to join the neolibs in the modern Democrat Party.

    He took a big step forward last season. I've been predicting a breakout year for him. He one of the most athletic freaks in the entire NFL, and he's still pretty new to football.

     

    Seems like Beane and the staff also think Brown is going to be too expensive next off-season. This extension is risky, but the reward could be an all-pro RT. Brown has all the tools.


    Rousseau is another one.  If he can avoid any random foot/ankle injuries, he may be in line top end EDGE money.
