    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    On Goff, I agree his played dipped in the playoffs, but while the overall stats weren't great, if you look at Total QBR he had an average game against Dallas, and a highly efficient game against the Saints. Nobody played well on either offense in the Super Bowl through 2-3 quarters so that's...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    It's funny enough that Manning ended up 3-2 v. Brady in the playoffs (just weird to know that stat is legit). Also i think you really can't use Belichick/Brady as an example here because they are the true outlier. Your first set of Flacco, Dilfer, Johnson, Gannon, Kaepernick, Goff is...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Will they though? Maybe they will if the league keeps going towards stupidity on that level. But Rodgers, Wilson, Luck coming up...I know certain people like to hate on each of these guys for various reasons, but they are among the elite guys in the league. Brady/Roethlisberger/Brees are old...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Yes, although Garoppolo's situation was pretty unique. Not like Dak came into a 1-10 team and went 5-0 to finish out a season, coming from the Patriot system where we was considered Belichick's presumed heir apparent once Brady finally retired. They also signed that deal knowing that...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    1 and done playoff teams isn't equal to "leading a potential playoff team" for me. I mean teams that can actually take the next possible step and make some noise once they get to the playoffs. 0-4 in playoff games with 1 TD and 6 picks combined in those games. If he's "not a world-beater" in...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    I'm not sure I fully am reading this right, are you saying that Josh Allen and Darnold had the same kind of supporting cast that Dak or Lamar Jackson had? Or Goff after they got rid of old 7-9? Your 2nd group has guys who had strong to great defenses (Trubisky/Bortles/Flacco) when they were...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    It depends what kind of money we're talking about. If you're talking Cousins or higher ($28M a year) I think you're crazy. Dalton won't get that. Winston is a weird case. Like 3 years in a row people have him as a breakout candidate, mostly for fantasy but for actual win/loss as well...and...

    Brahma I was completely with you for a little bit of your post above when you said if you don't have that medium QB your team has zero chance...because that is 100% correct. Everything else after it comparing Dak to others I disagree with quite a bit, and outright think you're crazy if you...

    I'd put Thomas on that list. I know everyone gives Brees a lot of that credit, but I think Michael Thomas deserves more than he's been getting. He's much less of a big play threat than the other 3 you listed, though. Devante Adams might have to get moved up as well, guy produced even with...

    Not sure how hunts go for everyone, but on our datacenter for A trains or ShB S, nothing lazier than just swapping to your tank class and hitting your ranged threat gen over and over for a bit for easy 100% credit while 100+ people kill the mob. Far less effort for me than having to run 5...

    With hunts I just have clusters/nuts I can trade in for combat 7's and 8's for days, although price has dropped since savage patch first dropped. I'd kill for 100k for combat 8's still. Boggles my mind that people pay so much for combat materias when both SB and ShB they hand them out for free...

    Basically this, at that price it's very low risk. I don't know if Tampa has any room (or really any need) on their PP1 unit b/c he could help there. They're just pretty ridiculous already I would assume so might not even have a spot on the top unit.

    There's definitely something to be said leveling them all up together, obviously gatherers get you raw mats for you to craft stuff to level up. I'm sure there are some guides out there for leve kits and leveling up, but it's been a long time since I did 1-50 DoH/DoL stuff.

    the Namazu are also 3 a day and are just as easy if not easier than moogle quests. Crafting at the top end has gotten easier since HW, too. A big thing that can help is to make a retainer or two (or more, if you do that) into gathering classes than can get you materials once you've leveled...

    Finally unlocked the hidden quest after completing the 4 Role Questlines. Definitely a lore bomb, although I think there might be some indirect ties to Eden story line eventually and potentially point towards a future destination for us maybe in next expansion.

    Be curious to hear Limit's response to that. Granted I don't pay that much attention to WoW but Limit kept having good runs towards end of last night and it just sounded like they had people dying to stupid deaths but otherwise it would have fallen over if they go into P4 with both combat rezzes.

    That's pretty much why they have the little intro quests at the Guild Receptionist/when you first talk to the Guild leader. Pretty sure the arcanist guild leader talks about how the arcane formula allows you to summon Carbunkle as part of the initial class quest for arcanist.
