    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    I gotta be honest...that would be hilarious. Was like the meme I saw about #1 pick being happy Miami was winning games so they wouldn't draft him. Then getting sad after realizing it would be Cincy.

    2019-2020 NHL Season Thread: Uber Missed the Blues Victory Parade Edition

    Crosby might miss 4-6 weeks? Sports hernia? While I'm biased as hell, I don't think Ovechkin has been in the real running for overall best player in the league for awhile now. Best goal scorer, yes, but it's been McDavid v. Sid for best overall player the last few years.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    I agree with most of yours as well, though I read a lot of articles from guys who watched closely his last season in San Fran that said he had showed considerable improvement in his ability to be more than a single read passer, and really suffered greatly from poor receivers that year. I agree...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    I agree, been saying this for awhile now. It might have been a thing in 2017, but 2 and a half years or however long away? Zero chance he can contribute in any meaningful way currently. Just being in shape still (if he is) doesn't change that.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    It's ironic you bring up taking care of the football as many people post that pick of his 4 Int game (99% probably having no idea that represents over 13% of his career Int). I would note that his passing and TD's per game stats are affected by the fact he averaged must less attempts per game...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Dolphins and Bengals will draft a QB next year. Jets are stuck with Darnold for at least 2 more years. I don't know what the Titans will end up doing other than cutting ties with Mariota. No way he gets that job back with what Tannehill has done since taking over. Arians still seems to...

    I can't see anyone taking him. Frankly the kept in shape part I can believe, but that doesn't mean shit for not having even experienced an NFL practice in 2+ years. Any team that thinks they could throw him out there in a week or two and expect jack shit is crazy. And this is coming from my...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Also, honestly, with the Bears...yeah Trubinsky has been pretty bad overall but I think a lot of their issues is that the league has sorta figured out Nagy's offensive scheme. That, and his refusal to establish the run as much as he should in a few games this year.

    materia market already crashed hard with the stockpiles people had and the changes to crafting/gathering with 5.1. I'm not even convinced this is a faster way to get materia on the whole, unless you're someone who doesn't have retainers getting you stockpiles of mats for yellow/white scrip...

    Zero chance head coaches show up day before game. I'd find it super unlikely any GM's show up, too. Maybe the Bears' GM should.

    Not very impressed with rewards for the Ishgard stuff. Might be a faster way to get gatherer materia. Not much else is appealing at all.

    Oh agree with that, but Sunday's Drew Brees wouldn't, either. Willing to give a slight pass. His O line wasn't helping him at all.

    I could see an argument be made for him having a mediocre night because of the defense he was facing.

    Did some other QB get hurt? I mean Winston and Tannehill are back to winning games, and Minshew getting benched for Foles he could get traded somewhere to start.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    I've heard a ton of bitching about this today too, but given how the OT went with multiple possessions both ways and San Fran actually picking off Wilson and returning it to roughly midfield where a FG then just wins the game...they really can't complain about it affecting the overall outcome...

    Just sad how much better Clone Wars and Rebels is than any of the movies in the last 35 years. Should just stick with that and create a universe around it based on SW lore. I really think people would love delving into galaxy history and what not based around a conflict that doesn't always...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    The fuck, article only focuses on her but they literally listed every big name actor/actress they had in the movie for Best Supporting. A bunch of them had pretty small roles overall in it. Is that normal to just pile everyone in an ensemble cast in no matter how big or small the role is? Silly

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Nah if it's to be a tie, I would want it to be because both defenses were just too good to allow anything. This game deserved a good finish and it got one. Congrats on the win.

    Nutty game. Worthy game. Hope this ends on a good play (made FG) and not another miss for a tie.

    If they're going to continue to always call it that way for roughing erring on side of caution...yeah, they should the other way to a degree too.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    I agree they should have let that one go probably...but I can understand making that call with as much bullshit as they call roughing the passer these days that they gotta give a little the other way, too, or defenders are going to think sometimes they are going to have to commit a personal foul...

    To be honest, the changes they've made in the most recent patch seem to be them wanting people to fish for more goods/excellents in the manner you're talking about. Obviously for macro crafting you can't plan for that RNG, so it's not a part of it.

    Saints just need to get back to their bread and butter of feeding Thomas and Kamara. Payton gets a little too cute for his own good when they're wasting too many plays throwing 3 yard outs to Taysom Hill and running double reverses where Ginn runs out of bounds for a 2 yard gain. Using Murray...

    Holtby owns the Bruins, though. Also I think you're a little overboard on the never trust him part anymore. Since getting pulled after allowing 3 goals on 3 shots against Colorado, he's 7-0-1 with 22 GA in those games, and a .920 sv% all situations, which is quite a bit better. Also Caps...

    Still think Cowboys played it right running the ball at least once to get the clock under a minute. Both teams had all 3 timeouts getting down to the end of that drive so you should run it down some. Zeke losing the 3 yards on 3rd and 2 for 4th and 5 was killer. Still you'd expect they could...
