I mean, I didn't actually pay attention to that post of yours so I didn't steal it from you. Starting to wonder if you are a burner account for Easterby. A lot of things match up.
He's just been really good since this streak started. Think his save percentage is around 0.923% last 11 games, only 22 goals allowed in those games, too.
Yeah, I was waiting for the eventual let down game with our current streak, plus we've been going with 11 forwards and 7 D for a stretch now without Wilson and Eller. Have to see if we play better tomorrow.
Yeah that's why it being 2 years instead of 1 seemed strange. But maybe the contract is really more of a 1 year deal that Seattle will likely let him go out of or something. Makes Carson an interesting fantasy option again, since Carroll seems to want to go back to running the ball more.
@StoiCynic didn't deserve that one tonight. Guess there is a reason that Ovechkin guy has 720 career goals now, though.
Also the young goalie problem continues, Vanecek pretty damn good only allowing 1 tonight.
It's weird b/c I swore I read he was a shoe in to leave in free agency, and they were prepping for Penny or some committee to take over since they want to run the ball more...then they bring him back.
Texans signed Lindsay too, didn't see how much that deal was.
Yeah, I was just getting into the more ignorance versus actual deviancy thing. Like he was just used to getting sex during massages or something being the star QB throughout his life, versus actually trying to take advantage of people (again, assuming the claims are legit).
Are you suggesting that Watson just doesn't realize that sort of behavior (if indeed, the claims are legit) is wrong? Completely possible, but that's also giving him a bit of a pass on intent, if making him look dumber.
Juju back to Pittsburgh on a 1 year deal. Wonder if it was lack of interest from elsewhere and he figured he might just stick with where he knows he's been productive before to try and up his value next year.
I always liked Lyse in SB, never understood the weird, not hate, but disinterest people have in her. Always been more interesting to me than the twins, by far, although Alphinaud wasn't nearly as bad in ShB.
I think the TW contract is a little crazy for a guy who hasn't played a full 16 games since 2013, but he made it through 14 last year which is above average for him.
Oh I was comparing Mahomes with the Chiefs v. Smith with the Chiefs. But even Kaepernick on average looked to throw downfield on his passes more than Smith did.
I'd actually be curious to know what Lamar's air yards stats are, b/c he does dump it off a good bit but also has hit some deep...
This is true, although even given that, the differences/gap between them has been pretty stark. He just at least didn't check it down quite as much with KC.
Not like the throwing short, game manager throws was just a last year thing, though. Other than the KC years where he aired it out a little more (although nowhere near as much as Mahomes does in that offense), Smith has been known his whole career as a guy who throws shorter/safer stuff.
I should say @Chanur , I think both of them played very well that year. I'm not sure Smith does as well in some of the shootouts the playoff games turned into.
I'm sure he did, Smith not exactly known for pushing it downfield. There's a reason everyone in fantasy picked up JD McKissic as soon as Smith was starting for the Football Team. 2nd most receptions by a RB in the league this year.
Eh, 6-2 and 5-2-1, Kaep actually beat Brady on the road that year, as well. Obviously San Fran D was great that year, too...at least until the playoffs when they gave up 24+ every game.
Truth be told, I'm not sure who would be considered the backup right now. Samsonov and Vanecek both young guys, but since it was supposed to be Samsonov and Lundqvist coming into the season, Vanecek would likely be the backup.
I guess Booker was a FA so getting someone to replace makes sense. Just odd to pretty much blow up your OL releasing guys, trading your good center, then bringing in someone like Drake behind Jacobs.
As to your point, I'd think they really need to put money into the OL and defense more so than...
I would be a little weird to kill Lyse, since she's been absent for so long while we were dealing with stuff on the First. To come back and just off her first would seem kinda odd. I definitely expect a death or two in 6.0, we'll see about 5.5, though.
I mean, I guarantee a lot of these deals are pushing cap hits to the 2nd or 3rd year. Barrett's cap hit only being $5M and change this year just means it's going to be very big later on...but when you know you have a narrow window here to potentially repeat or win another one in the next year...
