  1. I’ve seen him many times this year just going through the motions / dogging it when he knows the ball isn’t coming his way. Moss did the same thing. It’s gonna be what it’s gonna be. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Still, yes, not a good look even if the game was essentially over.
  2. Zimmer has at least showed signs of life in his 2 games in the PS call-up and nearly had a forced fumble late. Other guys mailing it in, Hughes taking himself way wide out of the play 75 percent of the time, Murphy bending over for opponents’ OL in the first 5. Fight to stay on the train or get tossed off. Zimmer should get promoted to the 53, as he’s out of call-ups. Do eany-meany-minny-moe for who he replaces for all I care. DL has been 💩.
  3. This pass rush wouldn’t be able to get pressure if we blitzed 8 and Mahomes had a 3-second catatonic seizure. This was against their backups. The run D is just 🐎🔫-level bad.
  4. We could blitz 8 and Mahomes could freeze up for 3 seconds and we would STILL get no pressure.
  5. Am I the only one wanting an end-around / jet sweep from Diggs? Gotta get it in his hands and the rain is getting harder.
  6. A 52-yarder in the Buffalo cold rain? They should’ve just let Diggs try to run it after that soft catch or done a Hail Mary to the EZ and hope for a catch or PI.
  7. Diggs should’ve just keep running after that last catch.
  8. Singletary just keeps running into the back of his lead blocker. 🤦🏻‍♂️
  9. Roberts has been snakebitten all night. Taking it out from the ez and not getting poop or bringing on penalties. Tipped ball for first INT. PR where he got owned by the first coverage guy. Now a fumble while again trying to be a hero when it’s SOOOO NOT his night. Failure in almost EVERY aspect of this team tonight.
  10. Threads like this kinda chap my —. Blank all y’all for tempting the wrath of the football gods.
  11. This has to be CBS’s D-team announcer pair. Terrible.
  12. That doesn’t qualify. That thing’s not going to pull in from 60 miles. Omnis designs sacrifice whatever is possible for distance in order to pull in from all directions. It’s more like if you’re in the middle spot between Hartford CT & Springfield MA, which are like 25 miles apart. Again, these types of antennas’ performance is extremely limited situationally, and they are generally poorly constructed. Don’t waste your 💸. 10/10 would NOT recommend.
  13. Omnidirectionals in general are pretty useless except in small circumstances of being close by two cities / digital markets. See the reviews of AntennaMan on the YouTube. Don’t be fooled by ad copy propaganda. While it’s possible to bring in channels from long distances given the perfect alignment of tropospheric ducting (occurring at certain brief times of the year, and lasting for a few minutes to a few hours), getting steady teevee broadcast signals is limited to the curvature of the earth of about 60-65 miles. Do not waste money on this stuff. A well-rated “bow tie” or yagi antenna with a pre-amp if necessary, will be your best bet.
  14. In String Theory physics, they theorize that there are 11 dimensions. And some think that there could be many more than 11. As you get up in number, there are dimensions that operate independently from space and time. Could it be a shadow of one of these dimensions or the multiverse or traces of / leftover electromagnetic energy? These are things to think about at 3 a.m. instead of sleeping.
  15. With the antenna, what was your setup? Did you try adding a pre-amp?
  16. Mine is more vivid details from dreams that literally came true months later, about environmental / physical features and things not in my control and far too random to be coincidence. As I was living it, I was like “Holy wow. I’ve seen this before!” Happened a few times. Freaky.
  17. I have never seen a ghost, myself. So I’m firmly in the ‘maybe’ camp on whether they are real. My uncle, a post-WW2 vet, swears he saw one when he was installing phone lines in the late ‘70s iirc in the Mark Twain house in Hartford. This seems to be a reported thing with the ghost of a young woman in a flowing white dress. Mark Twain’s 24-year-old daughter died in the house from meningitis. And my dad says he met one in Colorado, where he was stationed at Ft. Carson for basic training and specialty school for helicopter maintenance/ supply & warehouse side. He was talking to a gal before his company shipped out to Vietnam, she said she had to go and asked if he would walk her home. On the way she said he would be all right during the war. He then went back to the party. A guy came up to him a bit later and said he’d seen him talking before he left. But... he wasn’t talking to anyone who was visible to this man. He then shared that there was a well-known ghost in the house and that this (getting a person to walk her there) basically was her MO. My dad was injured when a box fell on his foot and then with an eye condition and did his two years of draft duty but didn’t go to the war. There’s stuff that we don’t have explanations for, and whether that is energy that gets left behind or different dimensions or what-have-you....
  18. It’s been a messy year for kicking all around the league, even XPs.
  19. Meh. He needs to get approval from the NFL for everything he puts on his Twitter? It’s a grooming product like any other. I don’t get the outrage. They have ads for erections and douche products on teevee; a hair trimming product is taboo? Unless the NFL Network has a huge sponsorship with Braun or Gillette or something....
  20. I’m not really in favor of a forfeit at this point. This early in the season probably isn’t the time to start handing that down. Other teams may have outbreaks, and then what? Forfeiture isn’t a great precedent. Adding a week at the end of the season isn’t really fair for the reasons stated upthread — other playoff teams could get a rest week while othershave to play. So. What about the league slips in a bye / makeup week into the middle of the season and bump back subsequent weeks, and have any matchups that needed to be rescheduled played there? Depending on how things progress, it might be something to have two bye weekends like this slipped in. They really ought to have scheduled 2-3 bye weeks from the start, given the givens, anyway.
  21. Yup. No reason why the NFL w/s/couldn’t have scheduled in several bye weeks for teams to account & give shuffling room for these eventualities. It was hubris, plain and simple.
  22. Darn, I thought this was going to be a post with a photo of his girlfriend....
  23. There was an early kickoff (after the first TD?) where Bass kicked it short of the end zone and their returner got crushed at the 15. So... 🤷🏻‍♂️ that may have been planned; who knows. But... in this league, you give guys chances and eventually they’ll burn you. Much safer to kick it through.
  24. Josh’s mesh point / handoff is usually pretty slow and fairly obvious. This one was a thing of beauty worthy of a magician. Fooled darn near everyone including the CBS camera.
  25. Hate how escapeable every QB seems to be against our front 4 / 7.
