Pretty sure it’s been reported that the NFL will not repeal the decision. It’s purely why the NFL went third party here.

Considering there isn’t any legal hurdles, not sure what more people want. If people are that upset at the ruling, stop supporting the NFL financially.

Araiza killed a guy! Yeah with a football.

My football thirst is extraordinary right now. More than usual and it’s because this year is the first year where I felt like this is our year.

Maybe we should have left all the wisdom teeth in.

Josh Allen is on the battering ram diet.

Get in my belly!

No Dome! We should install snowmaking equipment on the top of the roof all the way around the stadium and turn it on when we are on defense. I want more snow globe games!

Why do you guys get so bent out of shape over this? It’s like handing out participation trophies. Winners win. There is great honor of dying in battle and people who protect their countries are heroes. But I reserve the monicker of elite for those that stand through the great tests of life and win against their opponents. Consistent victory is eliteness.

At least you are beginning to understand what it means to be elite. There are levels of eliteness. Pure domination is the pinnacle of eliteness. Not many teams, military, people, etc achieve it. 100s on every test, zero losses on a battle field. Undefeated every season, zero punts ever, 100-0 scores. How elite is up to you. Just like we decide on how much failure is acceptable. Is 49-48 acceptable. Is 3-0 acceptable. Since total domination and absolute pure eliteness is impossible in the human form, we have to tolerate certain levels of failure.

When it comes to elite and superiority, decision making should be factored in. Not only elite physically, but elite mentally. Who is smarter? The sniper well hidden in a secret location, or a brute warrior charging into a well fortified position? The goal is to stay alive and win. Beating your opponents, it’s hard to do that when you’ve been stopped. I’m not sure you understand what it means to be elite.

Did I say the dead soldier shouldn’t be honored? No I didn’t, every solider who sacrifices is a hero. But let’s not lie to ourselves, the elite of the elite find a way to stay alive and accomplish a goal. Elite by definition means superiority, how can you be superior if you were killed by a competitor?

Which is a reasonable expectation. But we expect results. True elite rosters win, provided they have a good general aka coach. If everyone here really believes we have the best roster, than a lack of a super bowl should fall on McDs shoulders.

Is it not the goal in military endeavors to sustain the least amount of loss of lives and accomplish a strategic outcome? Do people remember the gladiators that died or the ones who won and stayed alive? Elite people win, and keep winning until they are stopped.

So if we truly have the best roster today, then there is no excuse as to not win a super bowl right?

Lol elite means you find ways to survive. Are you really elite if you die? Survive is to win, wining in a game means you survived. Elite means victory, superior.

What is wrong with that take? Strategy is dynamic, it changes based on what is being shown at any given time period. Chess is the same way, and analytics optimizes for best scenario win rates based on given battle field positions and opponents skill level. What does superior mean in this definition? Doesn’t that mean defeating your opponents? Are you really superior if you lose?

Just like comparing militaries with different eras. Roman military troops were elite for most eras. I sincerely doubt most modern armies would be able to compete in hand to hand and hand to sword combat against that army. It’s fair to compare other similar NFL historical rosters and coaches.

Sure, elite means you dominate your competition. They were elite by my very definition. They didn’t lose and they won a super bowl. Now if you want to compare eras and talented teams/coaches, that’s for a whole other debate which is fine. We should measure eliteness by most championships won to.

LOL how is it not the definition? If being Elite doesn’t include being the champion, then what’s the point? It’s possible that we are elite talent wise, but are lacking an elite commander to get over the top, that’s very well possible. But not winning means we are lacking elite qualities somewhere along the lines. If we are to win a super bowl we need to figure out what we are lacking.

No, it’s just I will never say foolish things like we are elite. Elite means you find ways to win. If we aren’t winning, then clearly we aren’t elite and we need to figure out why.

Well by definition, elite means you win championships or find ways to do it regardless of your talent level. Usually that’s because they are guided by an elite coach or general. Apparently we don’t have an elite coach that can gather his troops enough to be consistent enough to win. This season is the last chance with me. There are no excuses now, we just added even more premium talent. Other coaches have won Super Bowls with far less talent than ours. Lapses happen, but elite players and teams find ways to win multiple championships. Woods has many many victories, more than most. Elite rosters and elite coaches find ways to win. We aren’t elite in my book until we bring home the trophy.

It’s ok just to say Ironmaiden threads.

Just stop side skirting the question, answer it in your own words. What logic explains the lack of a super bowl if we have one of the most elite roster? If we have the strongest and most cunning soldiers and we are losing battles, is it not because we lack good generals? So which is it, coaching or talent?

Lol Royale, you laugh at my post but won’t offer a rebuttal. You never answered my questions.
