    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    I assume you mean short balls, but there are multiple types. If you're throwing short b/c a guy has room to run that's one thing, if you're just dumping it off and letting your receiver get murdered, that's another thing. Frankly Thielen's comments seemed to work earlier in the year, not...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Niners not exactly putting this game away. Should be making some easy 1st downs to run some clock on these drives.

    Romo should have been commentating though, for full effect.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Who gives a shit about Brady, in general or in this discussion, he's out already. Although he did have 6 receivers catch passes for 10+ yards last week in defeat, if we're just going to drill down on that one stat. My only point is nobody on the Vikings offense (team really, but mainly the...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    he's 12 for 17 for 81, with 41 coming on a play where the CB basically fell down. 2 passes for more than 10 yards all game. They had 90 yards of offense through 3 quarters. Granted, it's not all him at all, they have no running game. Aside from Diggs getting that one big play Thielen has...

    Well, that doesn't help.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Well...maybe that's why Shanahan didn't run it. Vikings needed that.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    What's the excuse for the rest of the game, though? Not picking on just Thielen or Cousins here, no one on Minnesota has done shit up to this point except Diggs on a badly misplayed ball by DB.

    Niners with the chance to put the dagger in.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Well, Jimmy G handed them 3 almost with the pick at end of 1st half, and corner fell down on a 41 yard TD. I mean other than the one big long play the vikings have 55 yards of offense.

    Yeah, Sherman isn't just going to fall down. That block though, wtf.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Just doesn't like relying on the running game 3rd/4th and 1. Against Atlanta, and the Ravens, might have been wins otherwise.

    Kyle hates his running game in big moments

    Woof. Bad pick.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Definitely the blueprint for the Niners to have success. Make some good throws and have the run game working a little.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Not only a fumble, but with the blocking he had no way he should have only gotten about 7 yards.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Shit, even Alex Smith went 6-4 as a starter before he got hurt. Although frankly that was mostly on the back of the running game and defense actually playing well at times to start that year. Cousins put up very good numbers when we had D Jackson and Pierre Garcon still in their primes. Once...

    Jimmy G lucky there.

    This is a sweet gif. Still wasn't in stride.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Because NFC East sucks but they still let a team in. Pretty sure you guys would have gotten in over Eagles if you go far enough down tiebreakers.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Not really in stride, Diggs slowed up/stopped to jump up for it, while the corner did...something.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Considering they beat both of those teams (and waxed the Packers)...yes, they definitely did.
  23. Merrith

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Good enough, but mostly a 50/50 ball. Defender doing anything other than falling down and waving arms uselessly it's probably just knocked down incomplete.

    That was some ugly coverage there.

    Niners did earn that right as top seed at least.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Seattle. Frankly I think they're the only road team with a "good" chance to upset this week. Not sure the 6 days thing is that big a deal. Would just be like playing Monday night then Sunday the following week. Also 430 game out west feels like a mostly normal 1pm (130) kickoff time east coast.

    I for one, don't get all the collinsworth hate in general...although more so just especially when it means no Booger.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    If the Vikings get beat handily today, I wonder how long it takes fans to realize Cousins basically just threw a good pass or two in OT, and without Dalvin Cook doing the heavy lifting his 200 yards passing in regulation were only saved by the Saints choking the game away so much.

    I'd rather the Ravens didn't win the Super Bowl...but I'd love to watch Lamar v. Mahomes.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Nah, it still doesn't come close to legion content if we're talking about doing all the class stories etc on alts and what not. If you're playing that much and being any way efficient with that time, you should have no real content left. Killing 40k+ mobs in one zone or running a dungeon for...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I thought I heard the rumor of legendaries coming back in Shadowlands the tower thing was going to be the key to them, and that players would get to customize which ability/slot they wanted the gear to be.

    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    The "things are not as they seem" is fine when used properly. As you said, though, chopping off any decent thread Force Awakens even potentially set up was dumb. I think the overall idea of subverting expectations was still too overdone far too much in the movie for it to still not be a bad...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Considering he supposedly hand picked Lazard and he's been better than Scantling or Allison, he may at least be right about who should be out there getting snaps opposite Adams. They did do a great job unleashing Jones and improving their D (although I think they need some run stoppers in this...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Pretty good article in some ways, pretty shit in others. The part knocking Rodgers/Brady for throwing the ball away about twice a game on average is weird. Can't remember how many times I see a QB scramble all the way out of bounds and actually lose a couple yards versus just throwing the ball...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Yeah I don't mean the Empire stuff, I mean more the Ascians and the story line stuff behind the 13 "stars". Although the Garlean Empire is intertwined with that. HW kind of left the main struggle for its own stuff, which was good...just very self contained. And the whole big cliffhanger with...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    the end of the ARR stuff right before HW was pretty good. Also I don't view SB as negatively compared to HW as most, granted the HW stuff was great, it just left what I consider to be the actual "main' story line quite a bit, so getting back to that in SB was actually nice.
