    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Heh, who was it that legit didn't think the Bengals would be the clear bottom team in AFC North?

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    The signs were all there. Failing in the clutch, losing against winning teams. The one thing Jay Gruden seems to be able to do is get decent receivers open quite a bit in his offense, and when Cousins had Garcon and Desean Jackson to throw to, along with a semi healthy Jordan Reed (as opposed...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    I think the defense was a lot better than the final score indicates. Up that much that early, Goff throwing that ball that many times...they were going to put up some numbers. But when it mattered, it was big.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    I mean..they should be 3-1 right now if that kick is made last week, and only lost to Niners due to bad Winston with 2 pick 6's.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Denver deserved to lose that game not running it at least once inside the 10 to run some clock. Just poor coaching.

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    Late in the EU they had Lumiya (Sith female) utilize multiple force projections to force people to fight what appeared to be "evil twins" of each other across many light years. If I recall it was implied she drew on the power of some asteroid where a former lord of the Sith lived for many...

    Hahaha, it would be one of the young receivers not being able to come up with catch in traffic for a deflected pick.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Pederson such a moron going for 2 when it was 27-20. Just kick the XP and force them to get a 2 point conversion at some point. Although some of my ire is probably because I'm going against Packers' D in fantasy and that extra point would push them into 35+ points given up and an extra -3.

    Packers D has a weak spot against the run. Their pass rush isn't getting home, either.

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

    Fresh ice. I expect Caps to still be a decent/good team this year, but we're looking very good in preseason. Noted goal scorer Tom Wilson with the shortie snipe

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    I think the offense could use the ability to grind out some longer drives more consistently. Ekeler seems great for big chunk plays, but I'm not sure him and Jackson together cause as many problems as him and Gordon do for opposing defenses. Hopefully if Mike Williams can get going as a 2nd...

    Never seen a tweet more true. Gruden says we're sticking with Keenum going forward, too. Week 6 might be for the #1 pick.

    One positive from this season is Terry McLaurin. We found a gem in Round 3. A good bit of this is garbage time, but the individual catches are impressive for a rookie

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Honestly I think they needed to come down some, but I think it's ridiculous that it's essentially like "call less holds if possible" and suddenly so many instances where flags were thrown are now kosher, apparently.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    I feel like if they had it off to Chubb 4 straight times from the 4 or whatever they get in. with 3 timeouts, completely doable. Little surprised they kept trying to throw to TE/3rd receiver and not give Landry or Beckham a chance on a quick slant.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Pretty slim chance they were going to on the drop kick, either. If he'd looked up he could have just caught it and caused the clock to run a second off, thus losing them the 2 minute warning. If 95% of what you're trying to do is preserve that stoppage, I'd rather just let Justin Kicker kick...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Why was the drop kick brilliant? Justin Tucker could have just blasted it through the end zone and no time would have come off the clock still, only Chiefs would have been on their own 25 instead of their own 36.

    Not sure I saw anyone claim "stroke of genius". More they're the Patriots, and they'll bring him in and if it doesn't work, they wipe their hands clean and that's that. It didn't work, and unsurprisingly, it's because AB was an idiot again.

    Please no. One he's just uncontrollable at this point, the other I'm kind of embracing the tank. We should trade Trent Williams to whoever will actually offer a 1st, too.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Hilarious. Funny thing is Belichick can just be like "we decided to go into a different direction" and that's literally the end of it from the Patriots end. They won't hear any shit for it, it'll all be on AB (as it should be, frankly).

    It's funny, a guy on a Redskins blog I check out a bit was talking about Minshew before the draft. Wanted us to not use a first on Jones or Haskins and wait until the late mid rounds to draft Minshew. Props to that dude for knowing what he saw. I know it's real early but on the field he kind...
