  1. According to Time, it smells like vanilla: http://newsfeed.time.com/2013/10/03/your-vanilla-ice-cream-may-actually-smell-like-beaver-butt/ Who is going to take one for the team and go sniff some beaver ass?
  2. How many animal assess have you tasted?
  3. At least one game, not exactly one game.
  4. I'm not sold on Jameis yet. Winston's completion percentage and touchdown to interception ratio ranked 32nd in the NFL last year. He showed talent but I think he needs to take significant steps forward before he gets near the top guys. I actually think it's fair to argue Mariota had a better season last year in a much worse offense with way less pass attempts, so it wasn't near as sexy as Winston's.
  5. Russell Wilson. Can throw it with the best of them, smart, and athletic. Complete package.
  6. Is coaching to bad record causation or correlation? I'd argue that if you are trying to build a lot of young players up, and a QB needs a lot of work, you're more likely to have more coaches and more likely to be bad.
  7. You must not have gotten the Patty Melt with their creamy pepper sauce or the Green Chile Cheeseburger. Both have great flavor. And it's definitely more than a 3am stop here in Austin.
  8. Condolences to the Ryan's, this is going to be a very tough time for them.
  9. For fast food burgers, P. Terrys, Shake Shack, and Whataburger.
  10. Not a chance it's wrong. Five guys is the most "meh" burger since In N Out. Some flavor would be nice.
  11. Incorrect. Whataburger, Shake Shack, and P. Terrys are all significantly better.
  12. Shake Shack has been rapidly expanding, they're in a bunch of states now, and last year I found one in London. In n out is more concentrated but they're popping up all over Texas.
  13. I believe we should have renovated the old thread.
  14. I have global entry, got it back in April, good luck finding interview slots, huge pain in the butt.
  15. P. Terrys, Shake Shack, Whataburger, Popeyes, Mooyah all missing. Terrible list.
  16. This is a scheme that, before last year, finished at worst #11 during his coaching career. It's not impossible to implement.
  17. Nothing... the guy I was replying to originally (Nihilarian) thinks the scheme's outdated, I was arguing it's not and the issue was implementation.
  18. Gotcha, I was confused because the guy I quoted in my reply was saying the scheme was a dinosaur. I agree with you that the implementation was poor last year. With turnover machines leading the offense. Hard to stop points from being scored there. That being said, the vast majority of the things you're pointing to are implementation problems, not fundamental problems with the scheme. This is a very important difference because if it's a fundamental scheme problem, that's unfixable, but implementation challenges are fixable (whether you believe we're capable of fixing it is a different question)
  19. I fail to see how these are related to his scheme being supposedly outdated. These are all issues with the implementation, not the scheme itself.
  20. Really depends on how you're making the colors. In some instances, White is the absence of color, while in others it's the sum of all colors (like in white sunlight). Therefore, it could technically be the best color rush uniforms possible!
  21. What's the supporting data behind this? Per https://www.reddit.com/r/buffalobills/comments/3nz1h8/rex_ryans_jets_penalties_per_game_20092014/ Rex Ryan coached teams: 2009 - 5.68 PPG - 20th in the NFL 2010 - 6.05 PPG - 15th in the NFL 2011 - 6.38 PPG - 15th in the NFL 2012 - 5.19 PPG - 29th in the NFL 2013 - 6.75 PPG - 10th in the NFL 2014 - 6.84 PPG - 16th in the NFL Personal Fouls: 2009 - 2 (league avg 1.81) 2010 - 3 (league avg 1.81) 2011 - 1 (league avg 2.47) 2012 - 3 (league avg 2.59) 2013 - 3 (league avg 2.47) 2014 - 1 (league avg 2.03) For comparison, here's the penalty rankings (ordered by least penalties as #1) of the super bowl winners in that time: 2009 - New Orleans (#8) 2010 - Green Bay (#3) 2011 - NYG (#11) 2012 - Baltimore (#27) 2013 - Seattle (#32) 2014 - New England (#25) 2015 - Denver (#16) And here's Buffalo's rankings during that time period: 2009 - #25 2010 - #7 2011 - #8 2012 - #12 2013 - #25 2014 - #30 2015 - #32 In my opinion, what this data shows is: In his career, before last year, Rex has been about average in penalties called against his teams. Penalties doesn't seem to have much of an impact on who wins the Super Bowl. Buffalo finished near the bottom of the league in the two years before Rex joined under Marrone, indicating this isn't a Rex Ryan created issue. I personally don't understand how, when looking at all the data, we can say it's Rex's teams that are undisciplined. His teams are about average. It also seems to me it's the current Bills players who commit a lot of penalties and Rex inherited a "problem" (if you believe high penalty counts are an issue - I'm not convinced it has a major impact overall - it certainly in specific situations but I believe the data shows other factors are way more important). Rex Ryan's defensive rankings in yards per game: 2005 - 5 2006 - 1 2007 - 6 2008 - 2 2009 - 1 2010 - 3 2011 - 5 2012 - 8 2013 - 11 2014 - 6 2015 - 19 What changed between the 2014 season and the 2015 season that all of a sudden caused a defensive scheme whose lowest finish ever, #11, to become a dinosaur?
  22. The NFL's first full-time assistant coach? Are all the others part-time? lol
