    Was always going to be tough early Thursday game having to go to Green Bay, but man looked bad. Rookie RT v Parsons all night was...something. No run game, D letting too many free guys whole 1st half. Kind of did better eventually but some of that probably b/c game was essentially out of...

    I think he knows he IS that entire franchise right now. Probably doesn't want to lock in for 8 years, either.

    The ironic thing about Wilson is he reminds me of a lesser Big Ben. Not in the sense they're the same type of player at all, but in the way each turned into a real passer AFTER their Super Bowl success...just Big Ben did it on a much higher overall level and his peak lasted much longer than...

    Nice play by their returner. Now if they run it 3 times and punt, Bears will have under 30 seconds left when they get it back.

    Well, did what they had to there. Now you kick it deep for touchback so no clock runs, two stoppages to hopefully get the ball back with around 65 seconds left.

    You were the magic. Honestly feel their D started to give them some energy, and Jordan Mason more so than Jones running the ball sparked the O a little.

    Man I'm already looking ahead to thursday night. Packers going to be a massive test for Commanders. D looked a lot better Sunday but it's the Giants without their best O lineman, hard to really take a lot from that. Micah and that defense scary, although the one spot Giants are strong at is D...

    Still drives me nuts that idiot coaches fucking up going for 2 after the first touchdown when they're about to score down 15. Buffalo's coach did it tonight kicking to keep it an 8 point game rather than finding out right away if they were going to need 3 possessions instead of 2 (which they...

    Have had him stashed in a few leagues already (easy to just draft a guy who is on IR in leagues with IR spots then scoop undrafted guys like TeSlaa after the draft). Little worried offense is too crowded for him to be fantasy relevant without St Brown or Williams missing time, though.

    He actually had 5 fumbles lost, not just 2. While the box car stats look okay, I know good bit of them came late in games when they were probably trailing by a couple scores.

    I do think a guy like him might have a little more success than Trubinsy, although ironically Mitch kinda started off fairly hot in Chicago. But it is amazing how bad certain franchises can ruin careers. Buddy and I were talking about "forgotten WR's" the other day and Elijah Mitchell's name...

    I'm trying to think in my head what the motivation would be. Obviously they sold a shit ton of merch, season tickets, etc in the wake of drafting Williams, but in what was genuinely viewed as a possible historic draft in terms of QB talent, the long term cost of getting it wrong with so many...

    Hadn't heard the dyslexic thing. Might explain some of the other stuff. GM putting together/focusing on bad plays by other prospects to deter any sort of debate is just wild for an NFL team, though.

    We already went through this exact scenario when we decided to pass on Kalil Mack in favor of the two mid tier guys we signed. Mack went on to terrorize us and the two other guys were never healthy at the same time while costing us nearly as much as Mack. And before that when we went and got...

    Not really rationalization, just pointing out the obvious. He always lets his ego get in the way and waits until the last minute to do deals. Dak, Lamb, etc. If he realizes they aren't going to get a deal done for whatever reason earlier, they likely get an additional mid round pick in the...

    Yeah, I needed about 250 EW S at start of 6.5, really took up a good bit of time. Gilg always had issues early in expansions traveling to other Aether servers. You'd get stuck and not be able to get back for hours. Just would skip anything crossworld and I'd miss basically all of the triple...

    I can see a world where getting 2 firsts and not having to pay $47M a year isn't the worst thing for Dallas in the medium term. But he could have gotten more draft capital had he made him available back before the Draft, and would have gotten picks that helped this year.

    Although Barnwell himself has noted in the past certain QB's with greater ability than normal to win one score games. Brady's career winning % in them was .782. Mahomes' career record in one score games is 89-23, which is an even higher win % than Brady's at .794. Now 10-0 tough to repeat...

    Their kicker has a hell of a leg. He's one of the few that I think it would get tried most of the time there with just 1 second left in the half.

    Mixed bag. Most people thought a lot of the EU was trash, but there were some obvious good ideas in there, some of which they did go with and make canon (Thrawn, etc). Obviously now with how bad the new trilogy was the EU looks better by comparison, although in varying degrees.

    Caps in a bit of a weird spot this year, they kinda let some...filler...go. But are expecting a lot of youth to replace it. I know they took a shot at Ehlers, but Carolina got him. Feels like a treading water year waiting for next group of prospects to hit.

    Welp, McLuarin just requested a trade. Still under contract for this year, so it's kind of whatever. But first real sign that they might not actually get a deal done in a reasonable amount of time here.
