For the 5th time, we are talking about his velocity AFTER he already re-establishes post stumble. After he gains his balance. After he accelerates again.
My mistake. Yeah, I can agree with you there. Anywhere before that point favors the static runner.

Bingo! And well said.
And we can prove it with v = v0 + a(t). Because v is dependent on a and t, it is not possible for a runner to be at their fastest while still accelerating.
The thing you are missing here is the change of acceleration over time.
end velocity is less important here than rate of acceleration. In a stumble, there is a negative acceleration until balance and rhythm are reestablished and acceleration can increase again.
A sprinter coming out of a block rapidly establishes balance and rhythm and quickly compounds positive acceleration. One of the keys here is the amount of stumble/balance loss and how quickly the runner can re-establish but I would bet in most cases the static runner properly balanced will build greater speed via greater positive acceleration magnitude than the stumbling runner.
In simplest terms, the static runner is going to have a greater "a" than the stumbling runner thus build speed more rapidly even though the stumbler has a v0 greater than zero.

Zero chance. Anyone saying something less than two first round picks doesn’t know how good Garrett is.Thing is, if Myles wants out it changes the calculus.

I don't know what Harold Landry's contract looks like, but I think I'd rather take him over Garrett
In all fairness I haven't seen that much of Landry, but Myles is the closest thing I've seen to Bruce since Bruce himself. Great against the run too.

I know this is a hypothetical, but I have many friends and family members who are browns’ fans, and Garrett is the heart and soul of that franchise. It wouldbe like the patriots trading Tom Brady in his prime. Seems unlikely.
He also seems to value staying in Cleveland. Things could change quickly though. If he left, I don't know if fans would be jumping off buildings or being happy for him to go to a team that could find success. I know Cleveland fans hated to lose Coop but were also happy for him. This fan base realizes what a sh*t show their franchise is and they are helpless to change it. It really sucks to live among.

Easily. Garrett is a monster. Bruuuce going to Cleveland to coach/tutor his rookie year says it all.

Career likely over unless he is willing to be a BU player
Yeah, even if he progresses well, it seems like it takes closer to two years for most to fully come back. At least the Browns will get some insurance money back. What a mess, I doubt Watson really wants to come back to them next year. It's such a disaster for both sides. If he had any integrity he would renegotiate to a contract that cuts him loose. He doesn't look happy to be there either. Fans might actually have half an ounce of respect for him too.

Anyone who wants to watch an achilles snap in real time check out the replay. Totally obvious.

Davis is the second coming of Fred Jackson
I like Davis's ability to bounce and spin out of tackles. We are really set at RB this year.

I hate that rule how can a running back just stick the ball over the goal line and then get it swatted out and it's a td, but that's not one
Because it's a pass and there are rules to officially completing the pass.

Thanks for posting this as I totally share their opinion after watching Coop these last 2 1/2 seasons. I think almost everyone here will be very happy and maybe a little surprised about what Coop still can do. The guy was always a weapon with Cleveland. Far harder working for YAC than Diggs.
I haven't offered much opinion about his ability to still play because he hasn't shown much this season (and so may have lost his edge) but Watson and that entire offense is a dyssynchronous abhorrent mess that goes well beyond stats. No timing and Watson's confidence is completely shot but even before it died he was uncorking random wild passes that totally missed his target.
Looking forward to Josh and him getting it going Sunday!

The question is whether McD is telling them not to scrum? I don't think I've ever seen a penalty on a Hail Mary so I'm telling my players to take everyone down.
Yep. I don't think he tells them anything and just trusts the system!😂

That’s hilarious. Finally approved the day after the stadium move was announced. I have to think that this was something that got moving to save the stadium on the lake. Now we will see if the city can effectively use it to redevelop the area.
You can really see how getting rid of the stadium will open up a lot more development possibilities. They've already done a good job with the E 9th st pier area behind the Rock Hall.

Didn't they rush more than 2 against Kyler Murray?
I guess for me it is simply for McD getting a better plan to defend the endzone. The refs are always going to allow a scrum down there, Tauron got scrummed but none of the other defenders were closing on the ball. There was no defender tracking the ball from just outside the endzone. IMO Hail Murray was well defensed on both ends except that our defenders were too short.
McDermott is in his seventh season with a firmly entrenched defensive system. Hail Marys is a detail that should have been better planned and addressed by now.

Belicheck pointed out in the MNF manningcast that the nfl has shifted the game with penalties now heavily in favor of the offense. These days , all they are hoping to do is get one or two defensive pi calls and they are in scot8ng position. How many drives are extended by a cb barely touching a wr , and back shoulder throws commonly draw pi. Also after 5 yards , cbs can’t touch a wr , and now you see calls of pi in the endzone much more frequently than when I grew up in te 79’s , 80’s etc. Back then they let the lay go on , and it was really rare to see hail Mary plays or long drives under a min succeed. How many drives against the bills were extended after the play was over, stopped by the bills , only to be extended on third and 20 by some over officious holding , roughing the passer .or interference as a ball sailed way overhead as a wr came back with exaggerated flailing of arms to get the pi call, but now you don’t see uncatchable passes being called ?
so now Mcd has gone ultra conservative with only rushing two. Every time I’ve seen that , college or prom, the qb gets off an unpressured pass with legs set , torso aligned , under no hurry or rush and the success rate of impossible drives has turned now to,the possible. So this is about coaching , correct personal,, understanding which can hurt you more , a long fg attempt or a Hail May. Now teams are using time outs against Mcd to leave any amount of time on the clock as Mcd gained a rep for poor coaching decisions. 13 seconds , normally a knell down or hook / ladder situation , has turned into expecting Mcd to misalign or not properly coach his players. How does that haooen after the hail Murray? Once was bad enough but he has allowed at least two others. It’s unexplainable with a coach who has such a high wining percentage. Having Hamlin and other smallish guys deep,who are poor ball trackers is just poor coaching. Rushing two is idiotic.
. Colleges still,rush 4 mostly or send 5 to rush the qb and get them off balance or get to the qb. I watch lots of football. , andrushing two is rarely seen , other than by McD. He coaches afraid to lose , not to trust his players to get pressure or get home. He puts lineman in no man’s land , wasting them in the play. Until he changes , teams will keep Playing to save time at half’s / end game to test his soft d in one possession games and he so far , refuses to adapt. He coaches always to react , not dictate the action. Against a poor o line, an older non mobile qb , his coaching g was the same as against a mobile qb like fields, Williams , mahomes.
He just never adjust despite wasting his time out we all know is coming. So despite time to set up , get correct strategy , sub better ball trackers , he does nothing different. So far he is the worst late game , one possession coach I have seen and perhaps in history. They obviously can’t stop a Hail Mary despite 5-6 deep backs , so why not just go after the qb for a pressure and less accurate release point? So that and so many calls of defensive pi have altered the game , but Mcd won’t adapt. Until he changes strategy, we will see more impossible passes completed against his d in this copy cat league. He got away with it this time as the jest kicker bailed us out. It’s a w , but in a 1 possession game , if they have the ball last , it’s a 50/50 chance to still lose a lead. I wish he would sutvdown with Belicheck and tap his brain about philosophy on closing out games.,
Interesting about Belicheck feeling PI heavily favors the offense. Other than the defenseless receiver rule, I don't get it or agree with him.
I don't remember the 70's but for many years through at least the 90's the defender couldn't physically interfere with the receiver's ability to catch the ball until it was touched. Face guarding was also illegal unless the defender had eyes on the ball.
The 5 yard contact has always been a rule with no allowances for incidental contact until the last 10 ot 15 years? Now they allow hand fighting and minor bumping. The defender is now allowed equal opportunity to catch a thrown ball so long as he doesn't go through the receiver. Face guarding also seems more tolerated.
Maybe it's just me but in the past I felt the rules heavily favored the receiver but are now more even.

Burke seems to be a favorite of the rich folks and corporations with private planes. There has been talk of closing it for decades, but nothing ever happens. Cleveland would need to repurpose that land and build a land bridge over parts of the shore way to make development of the lakefront work. That’s always seemed like too heavy a lift for the city.
Funny you mentioned this😄 Just erase the stadium out of their images.

Definitely an exclusive airport but put there by the feds to alleviate traffic at Hopkins. My understanding is the feds would want tens of millions of dollars back that they invested in that airport.
Don't know for sure if the land bridge has been the holdup or shifting the port operations. I do know there was a lot of port operations behind and around the stadium.
We'll see. It just seems like it's getting more serious with actual money discussions too.

They have been talking lakefront development for fifty years and have never been able to pull it off.
They were saying it needed over a billion dollars just to renovate the current stadium.
They almost had to move it.
Downtown still has baseball park and basketball arena. The dome in the suburb is a much better idea.
Yep, I've lived here over 30 years of it and you're right. But, I think it's close to becoming reality. One of the biggest challenges was moving the port of Cleveland docks and operations out of there and that plan seems settled. They've talked about closing Burke but that's a hefty fee to the feds. So now that stadium gets razed and there's an opportunity of space that aligns with their original park-like overpass of the shoreway.

McD values reliability. He probably views Bishop’s blown coverage as a big reason they lost to Houston.
But how do you get better without playing?
He should put Bishop in 10 snaps/game and have him do what he’s good at… man coverage on TE/RB, Blitz. And add snaps each game.
cant use a 2nd rounder and still have Hamlin playing all the snaps.
This. Bishop will be a playmaker when he's up to speed. We are all in every year. This guy has to get reps and every opportunity to contribute for the playoffs.
What is he doing well in practice? Plug him into the game when you see a favorable situation for him and grow from there. Especially with Bernard back. It will also help veteran safeties understand they should develop their own anticipation and playmaking more if they want to stay on the field.
Going all the way back to Nate Peter man, I feel like McDermott fixates on practice performance too much.
Another good example is plugging in Terrell Bernard after Edmunds left. Coaches and Beane were all smug because this guy had showed it at practice the year before. He's smart, aggressive, takes great angles and closes quickly. Great at attacking the LOS. A playmaker. The exact opposite of Edmunds.
Why the hell didn't they push Bernard's development on the field more the year before? Under-developing your talent when the superbowl window is open is just criminal to me.

The current site is a nightmare. There is no parking. It's a very bad downtown location. Very difficult to walk to and you are walking over an interstate. Almost nothing around the stadium area.
? There's no parking right at the stadium, but I disagree it's a difficult walk. Muni lots on the other side of the highway are great and fun tailgate areas. That'll be the biggest change.
Earlier this summer the city revealed their plans to revitalize and better utilize the lakefront and it centered on that area behind the stadium for apartments, shopping, parkland. I couldn't see fitting all this in comfortably with the stadium there and definitely wondered if the stadium would be leaving.
It honestly will overhaul a blighted area in Brookpark and help revitalize Cleveland's lakefront, so it could be good. Big problem is how it will get paid for and will Haslam screw it up as he's done to the Browns? Can't wait to see where he puts the Flying J.

You’re being ridiculous. Amari Cooper is a good player. He’s not some generational superstar still entering his prime, and anyone who expects him to roll into Buffalo and become the savior (and there are a lot of you out there), is setting themself up for a massive disappointment.
Is he going to help the team? Absolutely. Does his presence solve all or even most of the issues that the Bills will face this season? Not by a long shot. No single player would do that for any team, and if they could, they’d cost a hell of a lot more than a third round pick and $800k. Why some of you seem to expect McDermott to put his feet on his desk, light up a cigar, and start making plans for a Super Bowl parade as if there’s no work left to be done is beyond me. Seriously, what do you want him so say?
It's more of what I want him NOT to say. He ties up a good part of his full response comments around "it's not about one guy" and "team is most important". It comes off to me he's imagining and lecturing about a problem that isn't there. I simply feel his need to emphasize this as petty, small minded and inappropriate. If I'm Cooper reading this I'm wondering what I did to p*ss in his corn flakes? Cooper has been a good soldier through a bad situation with the Browns, he is the opposite of Diggs. Him fitting in with the team will not be a problem.
So McD should support the receivers in the room, say he's looking forward to have a player like Coop join the room and see how his skills will fit in and more or less keep it at that.
I agree with you about Cooper being a good player and also that he's not some massive superstar or only solution to what ails the team. You are the one being ridiculous imagining I'm thinking all those other things you mention.

Don’t you think he should name names of players who suck? That’s what a real man would do. Why try to bolster the confidence of the rest of your roster when you have such an opportunity to trash them in public?
No, I don't think he should do anything of the sort, stop being stupid. He should express confidence in what we have. But his "I don't know, we'll see when he gets here. It's never about one guy... It's not about one guy" is middle-school level garbage. He could actually welcome the guy and his talents a little more warmly while not harping on a non-existent problem. Cooper will fit in with our culture, I think McD implies otherwise and that's a bad move for a first impression.

“First and foremost we believe in the receivers that we already have in the room," head coach Sean McDermott said. "We'll see when Amari gets here and how we can get him up to speed and get him integrated into what we do and how we do things. It's never about one guy. We're thankful to have him, but it's never about just one guy. It's about the team, so we're anxious to get him on board here and get rolling."
Good ole McPetty. Five snaps in Week 10 incoming.This is what might get McDermott fired. Small thinking. Instead of welcoming Cooper he's lecturing about how he's just a small cog in the machine. That's what is first on his mind. Coop's been fine as a cog in Cleveland, nothing to indicate it would be a problem here.
Some cogs are bigger than others, McDermott. And that's ok, it's part of every team's dynamics at every age. Players accept that. You need to fit the right cogs, not obsess over having them equal.

Keon Coleman Slow Jokes
in The Stadium Wall

Nope. You seem to ignore the fact that the stumbler undergoes negative acceleration while re-establishing themselves, which is a multistep/short distance process.
Once the static runner moves acceleration is all positive and compounding while the stumbler has to transition from negative acceleration to positive while trying to find proper balance and rhythm.
So if a runner form starts from zero while the other runner is just starting to stumble, I doubt it's even close that the zero start will rapidly pass the stumbler.
