  1. Hmmm I’m saying I’m a notre Dame fan. I temper my expectations of Brian Kelly because notre dame isn’t a “win the most football games at all cost” school Ohio state is definitely better suited for these games
  2. As a notre Dame fan, you learn to temper expectations. They’re never going to win the championship because they have rigorous academic standards. They can never field a team as talented as Alabama or Clemson. If coaching is equal they lose by 30. The talent difference has that big of an impact in college.
  3. Looks like they need to nuke the stadium from orbit after the game
  4. Unless forward progress is stopped.... the complaint is about how subjective the existing forward progress rule is. I’m not sure how it’s written, but you can see clear discrepancies on how it’s called. it’s a completely valid point of debate
  5. The dismissive nature of some posters on this board is puzzling. The subjective nature of “forward progress” calls is a legit concern. A good example of this is the Robert woods fumble against the Giants a few years ago. Woods was stopped and held in place for multiple seconds before the Giants were able to strip the ball from him. I was so irritated that they didn’t blow it dead, I spent the rest of the season pointing out every time a play was blown dead sooner than the Woods play. My chick loved that season ?.
  6. I think his style of play doesn’t age well. When you rely of shiftiness as a running back you need to realize it has a relatively short shelf life, as it’s the first attribute to go with age. He has usefulness, but will never be an every-down-back again. This is mostly because: his ability, his price tag, the role of running back in the nfl.
  7. Answers the question, would you rather have a good defense and a good offense or a great defense and an okay offense.
  8. I’m watching......
  9. Second one helps, but....could’ve been 4 in the half ?
  10. Going for it on 4th and goal doesn’t help, especially when they don’t convert ?
  11. I’m starting to believe some of the conspiracy stuff with officiating.
  12. Yes, muscular. It could be the way his shirt fits but he looks pretty big, at least bigger than I thought
  13. Looking jacked in that pic ?
  14. I mostly agree that it’s fine, as it’s a fairly rare play, but it’s far from great. I get both arguments
  15. If another offensive player recovers it, they bring it back to the spot of the fumble. It’s worth discussing a rule change, I’m sure it’s been considered
  16. Heard Dion sanders say that you can only wear outfits like that if you’re winning. I tend to prefer the mike Tyson towel with a hole cut in it approach
  17. It always seems like it’s style over substance for Cam.
  18. It’s interesting because he can say “well there isn’t a rule against it” as a defense, and that is true. The reason their aren’t rules for every specific situation is because most people function under the assumption that compeitors are going to act in a sportsman like manor. The bb’s of the world force the rules to be written because they MUST win, first and foremost and at any cost. This is not really what sports are meant to be, but at the professional level it could be argued that it is. It’s interesting to say the least.
  19. At the time I was okay with that, they had timeouts and their defense was playing great. With that field goal, even if the Browns scored a td, the Broncos were still in the game. I usually agree with your argument, but was okay with the field goal in this case.
  20. Did they say the Broncos haven’t had back to back losing seasons since the 70’s? Crazy if true
  21. This broadcast is amateur hour, the game is also heading that direction
  22. That fire alarm (not sure what it’s called) is obnoxious. Been running constantly the entire second half. I can’t imagine what it’s like at the stadium.
