  1. I remember watching Hasek go for several weeks at a time and stopping every shot that was remotely seeable. Only way to beat him was try for a crazy deflection and it seemed that opposing shooters actually tried to shoot at random ankles around the net to try and score.
  2. It will make my day if shoen teaches him a lesson and signs Carr.
  3. Von’s ACL did not even show up on an MRI, it was only found during an exploratory. I’m hoping that’s a good sign.
  4. Yeah, when you see that and draft Cody Ford instead, there’s only so far you can go.
  5. The fact Shakir totally disappeared to the point Brown and Beasley were brought back was disappointing.
  6. The cover 1 guy sounds like a guru with the Xs and Os but lost credibility when he told me in the preseason that shakir was NFL ready.
  7. Montana threw not one, not two but Three bad picks in the legendary “catch” game. Probably would have been benched or behind three scores in today’s NFL.
  8. Von was the team’s best player through 10 games. Two of our best and most expensive players - Von and Tre - were taken out by turf so horrendous that the NFLPA is demanding it be made illegal. That’s the mind numbing part.
  9. the pressure of striking out with highly drafted RBs kicked in so they panicked and had to expend even more draft capital.
  10. They spent nothing on weapons for many of the years, letting Brady handle the O alone. BB always assembled a capable running back by committee so no RB built up stats that had to be paid for. The quick passing game was a central ingredient. Helped Brady stay healthy and make due with lower funding.
  11. Beginning of the year, there were reports that Gabe was on the forefront of a novel “read-option” route scheme that Dorsey was working in. Gabe actually had experience with these rarely implemented concepts in college at UCF. I’m hoping that they give up on or tone down the option route scheme.
  12. If Allen ends up being just 1/7th as successful as Brady, I will be able to die in peace.
  13. Would rather have upgraded OL or receiver and roll with an ascending Cook as the 1 who can put on 15 pounds.
  14. I thought Norv held Rivers back from a title or two. Norv was that bad and Rivers that good. Norv was lucky to have Rivers carry him along for several years.
  15. 3 of the final four had a cheap QB and 6 of the final 8 had qbs on contract before max qb money kicked in. the new model is win it all with a non-max contract qb.
  16. A major table that turned is that their division was supposed to be highly competitive and ours a cupcake. The reverse turned out to be true.
  17. Love the timing of it if it sticks. “It’s all about me” JJ has to be apocalyptic
  18. I never really thought that Drew Brees was that great. Thought he had a weak arm and benefited from playing in a dome etc. But man did he destroy the Bills every single time he played us, at least twice at OP in bad weather.
  19. I’m actually disappointed. Allen should be using the opportunity to recruit a supporting cast.
  20. Starting with the Cleveland game where Diggs had zero targets 28 minutes in they tried to consciously develop secondary targets and the running game. The O had become too Diggs centric and it was exposed in the first Jets game. For the most part it worked until Cincy. Offense was more balanced and there weee signs of a running game.
  21. The people in charge of the Pro Bowl never seem to help themselves. Don’t they calculate that if they invite lousy players it will be more difficult to attract any names? Thomas Dmitroff on Movin the Chains a few weeks ago confirmed that all NFL teams use PFF and saffold graded out as just about the worst in the whole league.
  22. Cook was stronger between the tackles that I thought he would be and can still add 15 pounds. I see him as ascending to be true 1.
  23. Two competent DCs playing chess, not checkers, against a great opposing QB. Gives hope that coaching can make a major difference.
  24. Announcers/Fox did a lousy job not calling that drop. I mean how many million times do you have to see the ground cause a fumble and not look for it.
  25. Any oline expert on here have an opinion on Doyle’s ceiling?
