    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    Having the SNF game is going to haunt you on Thursday. Almost guarantee the defense will be sluggish and the offense will probably be off. It cannot be understated how much keeping a normal sleep schedule helps recovery from games AND you guys have to fly down to Dallas. On a normal week...

    That good? Was in the air after 1st quarter so I missed basically the whole game.

    Civilization VI

    AI suing for peace is the opposite end of the retarded spectrum from previous versions. Last night I declared on Arabia, wiped out like 10 units that had been stationed on my border, then had barely entered the territory of the nearest city before they sued for peace and backed up the Brinks truck.

    That's something at least. In 2014 Dallas had the late game IN New York, so they flew back afterwards. You could see the effect of that on the field against the Eagles. Their worst game of the year by far. And yes, like Hoss said I hope they go back to just the three Thursday games. One on...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    "Hey, why did this unit not do the thing we need it to do?" *blink* "Because you decided to save time and have it do the thing using a third party solution instead of doing it natively. If you ever want to change that you know where to find me."

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    Saw this today. Average of offense and defense rank of the teams the NFCE has played so far. Within each there's a couple of outliers (Minnesota defense, Atlanta offense for Philly) but overall the NFCE competition have been below average offensively and only Dallas has managed below...

    Smartphones

    I got mine yesterday (Fi). Moving on from an LG G3. For the time being I'm mostly just happy to not have any of the bullshit LG or Sprint bloatware but this is one seriously crisp UI and everything is much faster and more responsive. And since the G3 phone had the power button in the same spot...

    Psst> They never put Romo on IR this year. It's the little details that matter.

    Romo gave a prepared statement and ceded the starting QB position to Dak. Tony Romo: Dak Prescott's earned right to be QB So barring injury, this year might be the last time we see Romo in a Cowboys uniform.

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    I never understood that perception that he'd rather be doing something else. For all the shit that's ever been leaked out of the locker room over the years, not a single one has ever been about how Tony is just phoning it in because he wants to go golfing after the game or something. Feel free...

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    He's already been exposed by at least one top tier defense. Philly took it to him. Bad coaching let him off the hook. This last game was his first over 300 yards. Genjiro said it best, the team is built so the need for QB heroics isn't as pronounced. He's had to win some games late, yes. Every...

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    That's the situation I more closely associate with what's going on here (Montana/Young). Obviously different in the context of Montana being a shoe-in hall of famer, but he was the franchise QB with a history of winning and had pledged his career to the team. 7 games left in the year. Anything...

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    Romo takes more risks with this throws. The early comparisons to Favre weren't unwarranted in that respect. However, his first full year as QB was also the year he threw the most Ints and if you look at the seasons where he played all or all but one game he's been 10 and under 4 times (out of 6...

    I think it depends on the server you're on. Uno, for instance, is pretty consistent in the evening with every non-node war channel hitting Crowded. That literally just happened and most were expecting it at some point. Game has problems, the server architecture is still shit and balance is out...

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    The only impressive thing about what he's doing is that he's doing it as a rookie. That's it. Yes, it's impressive. Ambi is just tapping the breaks on the "better than Romo" argument. Let me whip out some stats that show a QB making good decisions and helping his team win. 10 starts, 64%...

    You'll never have that. That said, they recently gave everyone a free boss armor item, there's been two back-to-back events which reward many different types of high end items through random boxes, and the market is saturated with normal TRI items (Grunil, etc) so if you focus afk efforts...

    It's still pretty well populated overall too. They're going mega-server at the end of the month (I've seen varying reports of this having been the original plan). Valk awakening is the tits. Awakening cycle overall is close to finishing with only 3 sets left to drop (Musa/Maehwa, Ninja/Kunoichi...

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    What I want is the guy who's been the unequivocal leader of the team for the last decade, the one who can read a defense from the sideline, out there playing and leading this team to the promised land. But sure, let's go with "momentum" as a reason to make Romo backup. In the end I trust the...

    Kind of a shame too. Next week is the perfect time to start Romo because they have at least a 2-game lead over the entire NFC right now, even if Seattle wins tonight and NYG wins tomorrow. Why not start him at home against an AFC opponent? Also lets Dak get some rest before the short week game...

    So what you're saying is that the non-division games Dallas is playing this year is against shit teams? I agree. NFC and AFC North are absolute dumpster fires right now. Only the three division games and Detroit appear to hold any remaining appearance of a challenge.

    I grabbed Washington D off the wire cause I anticipate a big game from them. I like the chatter this morning about how Dallas is "due" for a letdown game. That's like saying a roulette table is "due" to hit black. Purely feels data. If they end up losing this game it'll be because they got...

    Like I said, they're not officially saying it one way or the other. In almost Belichick-like fashion he basically said it's something they'll decide on Sunday. But again, the smart money is that he'll be inactive, just based upon the workload they've given him in practice, they're just not...

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    That's the smart money but JG's press conference literally just said they won't make that determination until the moment before they have to turn in their gameday roster. So you won't officially hear anything until Sunday. It's worth noting, however, that he's been taking Scout Team reps as...

    So media is retarded. Business as usual! Like I said, I think the organization has too much respect to trade Romo to anything but a team capable of winning within 1-2 years. Only team that immediately comes to mind is Denver. Maybe he'll Peyton Manning a win and Denver can continue on as the...

    I like how this is still a thing. Jerry hasn't been the one making personnel decisions for years. He's long since deferred to Stephen Jones, Will McClay, and JG. Still part of the process, but he's let them run the show for the past 4+ years. If he hadn't we'd be looking at Manziel instead of...

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    Anything related to Tony being cut would only save $5m off cap. I would almost assuredly expect him to flat out retire than try to make a go of it anywhere else if it looked like they didn't want to keep him around. I figure at worst they might ask him to be the veteran backup for a year if they...

    Better technology makes the actual impact less immediate. There's more time (though measured in milliseconds) between the start and the end which can reduce instances which lead to concussions and eventually CTE. It's not foolproof, which is why that has to be paired with better technique.
  36. moontayle

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    The need to reduce CTE post-career through better technology and better technique is important to the long term health of the game. The latter is probably the only thing I respect about Seattle. They teach wrap up tackling via leading with the shoulder. Big hits can and do occur but it's usually...

    I'd agree with you on the Browns comment but that goes against what JG has been preaching for years. All NFL teams have some talent and at least two or three impact players, even the Browns. They may be going through a roster upheavel but Haden and Thomas played extremely well in their...

    Wife went on a mini-rant last night about how the Thursday and Monday games are predetermined and you can tell by how the officials call the game. I'm hard pressed to argue against that after what the refs did last night, even though I know it's more likely complete and total ineptitude as...
