    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Matt Ryan was absolutely the best QB of the 2016 season, even when stacked up against Aaron Rodgers. If you wanted to instead argue that Brady was the best QB that season, if you were to extrapolate out for the 4 suspension games, I would be more willing to accept that and it would circle us...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Matt Ryan checks off all of the boxes you've laid out (played in a super bowl, was the best at his position for at least one season). And unless he retires earlier than expected, always a possibility, hes going to be right next to Stafford pushing for whatever records Brady and Brees leave behind.

    What’s your take on Matt Ryan’s HOF candidacy?

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    No shit, Rivers was making decisions as if they had 0 timeouts and needed a TD to tie, when they had 3 timeouts and needed only a fg to win.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    It would be a longer term benefit to players financially to have an 18 game season. More games = more revenue = higher salary cap/bigger contracts. And they’d have leverage in agreeing in a CBA to more games at the return for some more stuff that benefits players in whatever way

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    I just think Warner would be a more difficult loss to replace because he’s the player they’ve groomed for 1.5 seasons as the defensive QB. He’s got the radio to the coaches in his helmet, communicates the defensive calls to the rest of the players , and helps people get in position pre-snap.

    Fair, I think I’m just old school with “never take points off the board” mindset.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Don’t really understand taking the FG off the board to go for the TD there. Not much difference between 19 and 23 pt lead with 11 minutes left. Cant believe packers getting their shit pushed in so hard.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    That sucks. Outside of Warner he might be the most difficult player to replace on D.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Yes, the 49ers benefited from a bad call at the end of the half and got potentially 4 or even 7 extra points from it, but it really doesn't take a high level of cognitive ability to understand that the rest of the game plays out differently depending on what happens there. This is a simple...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Seahawks-49ers game is, by far, going to be the most significant game of the year to date. Not to take it for granted, but assuming both teams handle their business in Week 9 that game will be 7-2 Seahawks vs. 8-0 49ers. SF wins that game and they go to 9-0, up 3 on both 'Hawks and Rams with 1...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    The only other QB that dresses for games is a career back-up/practice squad guy. There is no QB of the future to groom or get reps for. Arians specifically made sure Winston had no competition because he didn’t want him looking over his shoulder/playing scared. His contract is also...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Their O-line is awful but boy he doesn't do them any favors. Seems like every other play he is stepping up into a sack or rolling out of the pocket while hes protected.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    I wonder if out there somewhere are sports statistics weighted by era, similar to the baseball ERA stat that curves by stadium. You just can’t use raw stats to argue GOAT, by midseason 6 of the top 10 and 7 of the top 15 all time yards leaders will be *current* players, with Manning and Palmer...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Mid season firings are 99% a PR move, with a little sprinkle of “let’s see what this other guy is capable of”. Garrett did get his job after a mid season firing so it would only be proper for it to come full circle.

    No Time to Die (007 Bond)

    Honk honk virtue signaling aside in that article, the key takeaways for me are that she isn’t Bond she just got his job, and that Bond is still Bond....so it should be fine? The real fear being that it’s an entire movie of cis white male Bond being put in his place every time he acts out of line.

    Le Football 2018/2019

    Speaking as a US citizen about the US teams, I think an equal stipend for all athletes representing the US in world wide tournaments like this is how it should be. Things like gender, star power, revenue generated or even levels of success shouldn’t factor into that. But when it comes to the...

    2018-2019 NBA Thread

    What makes NFL draft picks so much more valuable than NBA picks. Minnesota turned down 4 1st rounders for Jimmy Butler last year... now 5 first rounders (granted should be late round picks) for Paul George. And I think both Butler and George have always been in the second tier as far as elite...

    SGDQ Trannyfest 2019

    I’m not super into the scene but I’ve seen enough to understand that there are different categories. Any %, 100%, glitchless, etc. These events tend to show a little bit from every category, or pick which run from the game is most exciting in their opinion. Definitely agree that speed running...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Season 8 is the most disappointing thing since my son... I mean since disc 4 of xenogears. The first half of the finale felt like when the RLM guys joke about a film feeling like it was put through a shredder and then someone has to tape it back together really quick. For at least the first...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    The most frustrating parts for me are where they hit on a plot point between major characters that works, but write it as complete nonsense. Jaime vs. Euron was a perfect example. All they needed was For Euron to already be on the beach or sitting on steps, drinking and accepting that he and...

    Its not like the Night's King / Undead apocalypse arc ended in the middle of a season in the middle of the series. Its the final season of an 8 year long series with only 4 episodes remaining at the time. Every episode after the first 2 setting the stage should be nothing but ending story arcs...

    Avengers: Endgame (2019)

    I felt like they only mentioned that it could/gave it the ability to open the bifrost was so Thor making it to earth in time for the final battle made sense in the context of the timing of events in the movie.

    NFL 2018 - 2019 -- Watch America's favorite sport wither away and die

    public image matters now more than ever in the NFL. If Hunt isn’t cut KC is probably dealing with protests and boycotts. If a team picks him up they probably have to deal with the same.

    I thought the chick playing Beverly was great and super pretty, and I expect to see her start being in a ton of shit. She might not explode the way Emma Watson did when she got hot, but I think she's going to be around for a long time.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    It's more like Arya already sees him being shady and he takes advantage of that and baits her into a situation where she thinks she's being clever/stealthy, but she is just being set up. The "lady stark thanks you for your service" line is good because (from Arya POV) at first it looks like LF...

    McGregor vs Mayweather - Aug 26

    The shots and barbs at the press conferences, while not poor, come off so unnatural and scripted feeling that it reminds me of a WWE event. Which I guess is one of the primary target audiences. I imagine Connor and Floyd have already worked out a finish to the match that sets up the biggest...
