Because they grade QBs by yards and TDs... and honestly in those 2 categories Wilson is an average QB. That however overlooks all of the other things he does that make him great.

That was just a sick sick throw by Mahomes there.

YOu may get your wish with the way we are playing....

Yeah I dont get this move. What are they going to do? Replace him and install a new system this late while trying to make a run in the playoffs?

Oh this should turn it around for Cousins and the Vikings.....

I used to think Cousins got a bad rap in Washington combined with a shitty front office and some bad teams... but I am starting to think he is just bad. Definitely not worth the money the Vikings paid him.

Barring any sillyness that seals the game

I dont take anything personal on this board. Bobby Wagner channeling Kam Chancellor there.

Not sure thats right... I think they should have kicked the FG.

I dunno... I think that PI call was not good... it helped my boys obviously but that was kind of bs

Now THIS is an idea right here...

I would say yes because they have less losses than wins

He did work out for Seattle. But no deal was reached and the sports media claimed MAH RACISM. But no details ever came out about how much he wanted/role etc

Thats assuming he wants to play at all. We also have zero idea how much money he wants. We can debate who is/was/will be better all we want. But if he wants more money than what a backup QB gets then no team is going to sign him. Thats assuming he even wants to play which I am not 100% convinced...

God damn I hope this doesn't fuck us up as bad as Jack Z did.....

It also depends on the style of chess you are playing I think. There are email chess sites that work very similar to correspondence chess in which case the use of engines is okay. Its only when playing 'live/over the board' that they dont want you doing it.

Probably yes. The one site I played on seriously, this was 15+ years ago, worked pretty hard to label them as computers rather than humans. I am sure however that there were people who got away with it.

Some would actually prefer that in the chess world I think. I am not saying it should be one way or the other. I am just saying that this conversation will be had. I actually think its a viable strategy for Magnus to employ since he is so much better at rapid than most of the world actually.

Aaaaaaand its over. Let the talking point begin that the WCC shouldn't be decided by rapid! GO

Magnus wins game 2 with black practically guaranteeing he retains the title unless he blunders badly.

Magnus converts his advantage and wins the first game of rapid with the white pieces.

Interesting position in the first game of rapid... I like white's position but I dont know if there is time to give it enough thought to convert the position.

The rest day is necessary if you want good games imo... people dont realize just how much high level chess takes out of you.

Thats right... I had forgotten the format was first to 6 wins.. that does change a lot

Yeah i agree computers have changed top level chess completely. This is evident in the WCC matches ending in 12 draws. I think it possible chess needs to evolve again. We have been playing it in its current form for 400ish years now.... its not unreasonable to think that we have mostly figured...

Yeah last night was as much his fault as McFatty... however lots of the other ones are on McFatty

Spoke too soon, they agreed to a draw on to the tie breaks

Based on my B class analysis I think black has a bit of an edge but its not some huge edge I dont think. White's pawns/pieces are tied up a bit but I dont see how black can make real progress on the queen side.

Last standard time control game of the match. I hope Caruana puts Magnus to the test even if it means losing the match... I suspect however we will get another draw and the match will be determined in tiebreaks

I have been playing for the most of this year. This game is definitely better/more fun imo if you play with at least 1 other person. As for redeeming value... ymmv. I think the game has enormous potential if they can sort out the technical issues the game still has. The game is meant to be...

Bruh... even beyond the fact that its Jozu, there has NEVER been a gem of knowledge let loose in the football thread

Damn... today's game. What a blunder Kd4 was for Magnus. I thought for sure he had a win in that position.

Interesting game today.... I think Magnus has winning chances despite bishops of opposite colors but I suspect we are headed towards a draw again

Ended in a draw as I suspected it would. h3 seemed to let the air out of white's position just enough

Yeah h3 was a head scratcher for sure.... I think this ends up being a draw now from the given position due to opposite color bishops.

That is the way Carlsen has played since he got older. He plays lots of safe openings with white. He doesn't take many chances, his strategy is to grind people down. Eventually they make a mistake and he capitalizes.

I think in classical time controls Magnus an Fabiano are evenly matched. I think most commentators think Magnus retains the title due to the blitz timebreakers. Magnus is a beast in blitz and Fabiano not so much

He must think you are Chaos
