    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    Frankly I think Aiyuk as good or better than Samuel. Both guys just had health issues and zero consistency at QB.

    It's funny having left DNC for last to level, that class is so easy to play at least mildly decently.

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    It would make picking fantasy players from them pretty, tough, though. Julio would always be relevant, and so would Kittle when healthy. I really want to say fuck their backfield because Shanahan and his RBBC crap...but Trey Sermon intrigues me as a late round bet.

    Yeah I had the vast majority of my classes to 40 by the end of Stormblood from PotD, and spent a lot of early Shadowbringers grinding them all to 60 from PotD. That shit is draining. Fortunately I'm down to my last non 80 class now, Dancer, which I have at 75 and will just coast to the finish...

    The real reason he doesn't quit is time invested, and frankly it's kind of how he makes his money. Could he swap to another game and make as much? I doubt it. When you say it's still the best game of it's kind it really matters what you mean by "it's kind". I don't think it's a better game...

    Well we're pretty much fucked at this point. I'd love to know how hurt some guys are because nobody is really doing anything. Samsonov didn't look too bad even though they ended up scoring 4.

    Not going to put it on Laviolette when a good bit of the team look like they're the walking wounded out there (Backstrom, Eller, Oshie, Carlson). But unless they do something quick this season will be over pretty fast.

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    Obviously a lot of teams are a QB away. Seeing that Watson shit is pretty crazy, if they just push it all for a year the Texans wouldn't be as bad with him...although isn't he still never playing for them again? Kinda makes it awkward for him when he has no trade value so they wouldn't be...

    Teams I'd pick to potentially finish lower than the Jags: Texans, Jets, Bengals (solely depends on Burrow health), Raiders (unlikely, but possible), Eagles, Lions

    Most people rate SB below HW and obviously ShB. Personally I kind of liked it, although there's definitely some slow parts. I don't remember flying unlocking all that well compared to ShB, I mainly just always looked for whatever aether currents I could get to first and foremost before...

    Not long at all. 1-10, 11-20, etc so only 5 ascending runs. Assuming queues are fast should not even take 2 hours, and that is probably a high estimate.

    Tanks are pretty in demand, yeah. PotD won't give much exp at all to a 60, but you can easily pug to 50. Most people pug 51-60 PotD to level their sub 50/sub 60 characters.

    All of this. I've spent the last few months finishing out last couple classes from 60 to 80. MSQ roulette once a day is great, and beast tribes daily are easy ways to slowly move it. It is crazy how much better/faster the pixie beast tribe quests are for leveling from 70 to 80 than the 2...

    It's just a crazy swing, from staring 0-3 down to 1-2 and back in the series.

    No surprise, started with Pens thinking someone was messing with Jarry after the whistle. Crosby was trying to horse collar Palmieri down in the scrum, it was crazy. Tampa/Florida 5-5 in OT, this game 4-4 late in the 3rd, Habs/Toronto 1-1, Vegas/Minnesota later...nothing comes close to NHL...

    They got him for some unsportsmanlike whatever when he high sticked someone after the whistle in the 2nd (basically the exact same thing he did in the 2nd period of Game 2 to Mantha, only this time the refs didn't send the Capital along to even it out for no reason whatsoever), which Ovechkin...

    I just can't get up in arms about something that wasn't called in a playoff OT. Tim Peel stuff in full effect, it's pretty obvious when the whistles get put away in playoff games sometimes late in the 3rd and especially in OT's.
  25. Merrith

    NHL 2021 Irregular Season and Plagueoffs

    Eh, Marchand is going to Marchand. Slashes after the whistle you just have to expect from him. They don't call anything in overtime unless guys are bleeding on the ice.

    Frankly we dominated them in the 3rd, Dowd was just a moron and handed them another PP. Most Caps way to lose a game ever.
  27. Merrith

    NHL 2021 Irregular Season and Plagueoffs

    I swear Nic Dowd just decided to high stick a Bruin at center ice for no reason just because we're contractually obligated to go to OT every game.

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    I don't know if this is quite the same when KC mostly just needed healthy starters. Down 4 starters out of 5 on the OL and having at least a backup or two out due to injury/opt out made it even worse. Also Hill and Kelce suddenly forgetting how to catch the ball in the biggest game of the year.

    Yeah I don't know if he'll be ready for this playoff run, but he's been checking all the boxes. Maybe he is the plan if they trade Kuzy this offseason.

    NHL 2021 Irregular Season and Plagueoffs

    Still not convinced they're "done" with Kuzy. They might just have gotten to a point where they will listen to offers and consider whether they could make a deal they like (or if the cap space itself is just worth it to have/spend differently). But I totally agree that we can't go anywhere in...

    Calais Campbell made that point recently about one and done versus 7 game series, saying it was harder to win a Super Bowl than an NBA title because of it. Makes sense at least from that perspective. In basketball better team is almost always going to win out over 7 games. There are aspects...

    So much of baseball comes down to interaction between pitcher and hitter, as well. Hockey is another sport where analytics are starting to scratch the surface, but they're still not able to take in the whole picture yet. Shot quality in hockey is such a slippery thing to measure accurately.
  36. Merrith

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    There's definitely a lot of noise in football analytics in certain areas. But a lot of it is far better than usual stuff like passer rating, or stuff like RB's running behind the worst line in the league only looking at their raw yards/carry stat, etc.

    Gotta worry about Eller being out now, do they put Kuznetsov back in after only a couple days of practice after being off the ice for 2 weeks?
