  1. Outstanding news! Now the only hope its not one else gets put on COVID list between now and game day.
  2. A facetime call with Leonard Fournette in it? What a missed opportunity. Seriously though...this is a really cool story. Amazing to see so many "big name" guys doing something so spontaneous and cool like that.
  3. YES! Stop blaming Ralph. It's almost 2022 now. We blame Tre Edmunds like normal rational civilized human beings.
  4. Excellent choice! Now the real question...Her or Mary Ann from Gilligan's Island.
  5. One of my 1st girlfriends as a kid dumped me for a guy (?) that was Hey, It's Pat's spitting image. Lowest point of my childhood.
  6. I have a suspicion they are the same person just from different timelines. You imply that the alc flow stops. Excellent choice by the way.
  7. I searched the first 3 pages and didn't see anything Pat related so I'll start this one. Best Pats of all time? Pat Mahomes Patrick Ewing Patrick Roy Patrick Starfish Patrick Willis Pat Hayden Danica Patrick Pat Riley Patrick Swayze Patrick Stewart Other? Who ya got?
  8. If you never heard it again, would it help you become the best version of yourself?
  9. It would be more value to see what the result of the play as on those pressures. Just getting close means little. Sure, it helps but if it doesn't result in a negative play it's a moot point. It's kind of like me saying "I flirted with the most ladies at the bar this week". If I still went home alone it doesn't really matter.
  10. I can try and post. Never have had much success with posting outside media😂 http://<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Ball security includes judgment of kick and punt return opportunities, muffed punts/kicks in practice and games.

  11. For me, when a team or any buisness has an overwhelming length of success it's often the upper most managemnet that gets all the credit. However as most know more times than not it's rhe middle management and employees (in this case the staff and players) that make the top dog shine.
  12. Cool. Now tell the story of what happened the following week when they went to Pittsburgh. Paint the whole picture, remember?
  13. Though we are both qualified to have and voice an opinion, which is what I did. Kinda the whole basis of an internet mesaage board.
  14. Couple things: Re: McK: Joe B talked on Twitter a bit about his fumbling issues being more than what we see in games. Said he's made it a habit of putting the ball on the ground in practice as well to the point where coaches no longer trust him even on offense. Re: Knox: Man, this is just one tough dude. Great red zone threat. His next steps should be to see more action between the 20s. As a security blanket with the way teams have defended the pass there is no reason he shouldn't see between 6-10 targets a game.
  15. Yes, the popular group think is that Billy is a genius that has unparalleled knowledge of offense, defense and special teams. Knower of all. Sees everything. Rather omnipotent... I believe he gets far too much credit. This isn't too say he's a terrible coach. Same guy that knows everything and still can't draft well. He has never done well without having a super strong staff behind him. Guys that are great at their job. And not everyone is a good head coach. I said as much in my post. We see it year in and year out with all these amazing coordinators from every coaching tree. Remember when Matt Nagy was the next big thing? Adam Gase? Anthony Lynn perhaps? He's a fortunate man, who landed in a great spot.
  16. Belichick's greatest attribute is putting together a solid staff. Goes all the way back to Weis and Crennel. After they left...how long did the Pats miss the Super Bowl for? He's had excellent people under him that do their job extremely well, get promoted to HC, fail and come crawling back to what they do best. Had McDaniels taken that Indy job years ago they would have missed out again. BB has made poor decision after poor decision in games for decades and has been bailed out by Tom Brady and by star players that took a lesser deal to play with Tom Brady. Belichick was in the right place at the right time. He was an all time great defensive coordinator though.
  17. He's been way over worked in his career. He would thrive in a RBBC set up. Give him 12-14 touches a game. Unfortunately he's priced himself out of that role. Yet another prime example of not giving a RB that huge payday.
  18. Well, they don't play typical football either. They have a lot of backyard football elements to their ream. It's what happens when you have an Athelete at the QB position. Don't get me wrong, Jackson is an extraordinary athlete. A weapon capable of winning games by himself. But committing to that style of player often leads to an unsustainable path.
  19. I'm 100% with you. What makes me smile about the Ravens is 2 fold however. 1. Their way of sloppy wins is not sustainable. 2. Their schedule for the rest of the year is as tough as it gets. They will drop a few on the back half of the season.
  20. Shocked Diggs didn't draw a penalty for assaulting the defenders hand with his arse.
  21. Have to add Bolden to that mix as well. We have seen before where we stop the Pats running game only to see them bring in Burkhead, White or whomever their pass catching RB is and nickel and dime us to death that way as an extension of the running game. And while Harris is a good back, Stevenson is the one I'm most worried about. Kid's like a mini King Henry when he gets going. Very tough to tackle.
  22. Like with many things, the thought process over time on turnovers has been simplified and dumbed down to the simplest form. It's either black or white. However there are many times that a turnover is meaningless. If we're sitting at 3rd and 20 near mid field and Josh hucks one downfield into triple coverage is that a bad INT? No, not in my opinion. It's the same as a punt (maybe better since it wouldn't be a touchback) and you get the chance at a big play be it a catch or PI. My old coach called that a "smart" turnover. Same with an INT on an end of the half hail mary. Meaningless. I believe the better stat is "points off turnovers". Yeah, Motor can fumble...but if the defense does it's job it's a footnote.
  23. Yes. When the Bills don't outscore their opponent they typically lose. Very astute observation.
