    This preseason game went to hell early on as soon as Flacco thought the Eagles had signed Rahim Moore.

    That's right, I remember the bitching both ways because losing Clemons hurt you guys big going forward. Not that I think RG3's knee was going to be in good shape either way, but the field was horrific.

    He said Shanahan did NOT pull him out of that game. I'm not convinced he should have been playing either, but at the start, even with 80% RG3 Skins marched down the field twice and were up 14-0 before you could blink. Wheels fell off when he really tweaked the knee badly on the play before his...

    I guess we could compare Kirk Cousins to Brett Farve. A guy with more picks than TD passes over his career and a guy with 172 more TD passes than picks in his career. Favre for all his picks still managed to average less than 1 per 30 passing attempts for his career, while Cousins averages 1...

    Sure. Would you not get pissed the fuck off if you found out from a man involved in a conspiracy that killed your parents when you were a kid that another of the men involved in the conspiracy was using your sister as a cum dumpster and that it turns out she was actually HIS daughter as well...

    He doesn't seem like a complete psycho to me. Velcoro was able to convince him to sit there quietly while he talked to police chief to try and get evidence/dirt on him...along with all the details from robbery/etc. It wasn't until the crazy reveal that Caspere was actually his sister's father...

    Cousins didn't seem to be nearly as injury prone as RG3 or McCoy. It was the never ending stream of picks. Felt like he was a guy that couldn't put one behind him, and it would just snowball. His strength in being decisive and quick getting rid of the ball sometimes is also his weakness. I'm...

    Fuck it, give Cousins the keys. He'll challenge for the league lead in picks, but at least he'll move the ball some.

    It's nice to say Gibbs won 3 Super Bowls with 3 different QB's, but really he just had a formula and needed a guy who didn't make a ton of mistakes and could throw a decent deep ball. We'll always have that Doug Williams Super Bowl and that Rypien year/Super Bowl though. That's about all we...

    No, that's how I think people looking for revenge if their parents are killed might think. Get back at the people responsible. Not at randoms.

    Yeah. It would have made more sense if he only wanted to kill or be trying to kill the people involved in the robbery that killed his parents, and/or anyone hurting his sister. Like if he went after Caspere and the cops from the robbery, but would only incapacitate and not kill other people...

    This way we could watch Cousins throw picks, or McCoy fumble the ball as well/take more concussions. QB is a shit show for the Skins. Kill me now.

    B for me, although it ranged into the C and D range in most of the long dialogue scenes between VV and red. Honestly if I separated VV from scenes with his wife to everything else he did in the show it's like night and day.

    There should be enough criticism of this season that they reign his ass in (hopefully more than a little) and not let it be his total playground. It was still successful, still enjoyable (if you're not dumb as fuck or married to your bias against Vince Vaughn) even this season. It just clearly...

    Definitely, and it's been a large dropoff. I'm all for stuff getting called tighter in the playoffs, but when you look at some of the series this past year the lack of penalty calls was unreal. Just in the 1st round the Caps/Isles series when compared to the Rags/Pens the disparity was huge...

    The fact that Recchi played that much longer blows my mind. That's nuts. They also had a young Ryan Malone on that team that potted 22 goals. Long in the tooth or not, Recchi and LeClair potted 20+ goals, and Palffy had 11 in only 42 games. I'll grant Lemieux didn't play that many games, but...

    The standings show something. That both teams performed terribly. You basically point out that the Caps did a complete firesale right before Ovechkin was drafted. As for the talent surrounding them, well... Crosby played with: Lemieux, Recchi, Leclair, Gonchar and Palffy (not to mention...
