  1. It is actually an interesting legal case, but essentially the speed limit in the daytime was described as "reasonable and prudent" and when some group or rich guys got pulled over for disobeying that guideline and in court their lawyer argued that there is no such thing as reasonable and prudent, the judge agreed, and speed limits were back in play.
  2. There WERE roads in the west (Montana) with no speed limit, that is now gone, and has been gone for a number of years.
  3. Agreed, when 50% of your wins are against the Jets it is hard to take the 4 wins as a sign of anything.
  4. Right, because some guy who last played in 2016 (worth noting a 1-10 record that year, with an average of a whopping 180 yards per game) is going to be ready to step in Mike White gets hurt. At least Joe has been on a NFL roster in the last 1/2 decade. The Jets are not a dumpster fire, seems bringing in a veteran to add some experience to the QB room is a day late and a dollar short, but Kaep would not be the answer.
  5. If the Josh Allen Hurdle Part 1 or 2 had been called back on a penalty those plays would have gotten air time. When someone get abused like that on the field (and it is a clean play) it is going to get played again and again. That said I'll exchange one video of Henry rag dolling one of our DBs for keeping his running in check again.
  6. So he is going to be a terrible head coach someday? (hopefully for the Patriots......)
  7. He was traded on November 2nd, game with the Chargers was on the 29th.
  8. They are 11 of 30 on 3rd and 4th down conversions, with that type of efficiency you don't get into the red zone often. And as an odd paradox, they are very efficient in the red zone when they get there scoring TDs 83.3% of the time.
  9. October 2019 vs the Dolphins, before that you have to go back to 1992.
  10. If it isn't yet, it isn't ever going to happen. Heineke is 28, had an open competition to take the starting job this year and was beaten out badly by Fitz in training camp (this is according to my WFT friends). This isn't to say he can't have a good game here or there, but the long term prospects for him are to be a backup QB, and then out of the league before too long, IMHO.
  11. Is the pope catholic? *not that I participate much to begin with
  12. Some team needs to claim Hoyer just to mess with darth-hoodie.
  13. Based on skill right now, I would take Trubisky as the 2nd best QB in the division. Based on potential, I still might have him 2nd, but would probably drop him to 3rd and just say one of the other young QBs will be better, but I have no idea who.
  14. Either injury would hamper the offence, but I think Mitch could keep the team afloat. Consider that he was the 19th or 20th most productive QB on a sub par Bears team last year, if he was out on the field with our WR core I think he could put up some decent numbers. It wouldn't be the same as Josh, but our QB 2 is certainly better than quite of a few week 1 starters in 2021.
  15. This reminds me of a funny exchange between two old friends the other day. The first is going on and on about how this person is a jerk (more colorful language used), and that person was a jerk, and basically every interaction this guy had the other person was always a jerk. The first guy's friend turns to him with a dead pan look on his face and says "man it must be difficult that everyone you run into is a jerk." First guy pauses, and then keeps ranting without realizing he is the problem. That is Josh Rosen, he is the problem. Could he find humility and work ethic and fix that problem, well he could, but my guess he is still looking at the world blaming everyone else.
  16. During the NFL season I sit next to an Alabama fan and he always goes back to those two as examples of why Alabama produces good QBs. But then we need to look at more recent failures to see why the stigma is rightly attached to Mac that he is most likely going to bust: - Tua - Jury out, but there were some warning signs last year that he isn't the long term solution for the Fins - Jalen Hurts - AJ McCarron - Greg McElroy - Brodie Croyle - Jay Barker - Mike Shula - Jeff Rutledge - Richard Todd Not exactly a list of world beaters. Then we get to Ohio State, and man is that list of comedy of errors: - Tom Tupa - Kent Graham - Bobby Hoying - Joe Germaine - Craig Krenzel - Troy Smith - Terrell Pryor - Cardale Joes - Dwayne Haskins
  17. There is so much Trey Lance love out there, perhaps because Josh Allen was part of the build up going into the draft? But I just don't see strong parallels to Josh, and will call him being a bit of a bust. But then again I'm not high on any of these QBs, having an immediate positive impact on their teams this year, but going into year two I think Fields and Lawrence both bring good things to the table.
  18. I'll take the over on Buffalo and Carolina, the under on Cowboys and Texans.
  19. While I agree with most of the name on this list, I think I would downgrade Andre Roberts to the "So Long" category. Lifetime numbers 25.8 avg kick return 9.0 avg punt return Playoff numbers 16.7 avg kick return 4.0 avg punt return As we saw he cannot be trusted to replace an injured WR, he is not used for jet sweeps, he is a one trick pony, and I don't think the roster spot is worth it anymore. Take a touchback on kickoffs, start at the 25 and trust Josh and the O to move it down field.
  20. Chefs is my guess, I think it is going to be a 4-0 weekend for the home teams.
  21. Tua is still trying to play the same style he did in Alabama, short throw that the WR will end up taking for a first town. Trying to find the exact stat, but from a couple sources it looks like 70 to 75% of the yards Tua "threw" for in 2019 came after the catch (highest in the nation). That is what we saw last night, he had two completions go for 10 yards or more, and one of them was 2 yards behind the LOS when caught. Tua still has NFL WRs to throw to, but the problem is NFL caliber players are on the other side of the ball for the first time. Is he a bust? I think it is too early to make call, but I do think he was way over hyped and I'm looking forward to our D getting a shot at a Tue led offence next week. Go Bills.
  22. Was waiting for someone to say Christian Wade, only for the next 6 people to explain that he cannot be active this year..... Devin Singletary is my guess for week 16 TJ Yeldon & Duke Williams in week 17 to bring the record to 16 different players in a year.
  23. From 2010 to 2018 Seattle was outscored 75 to 0 in the first half of playoff games starting at 1pm EST (all West and Mountain teams were outscored 210 to 55 over that period of time). So they have been slow starters in the past. Hope that holds true Sunday and then Allen can keep the offence rolling in the 2nd half.
  24. The sales pitch to play for Buffalo is simple, he gets to play revenge games against the Jets and Steelers, we are the only team of the three that can offer that.
