  1. Only if they play in the AFC or NFC West
  2. I'm under the impression that Chandler's overall drop rate is pretty minimal, though. Would like to see the stats. Every WR/TE drops passes at some point. Some it's a problem, some it's just the name of the game. To me, Chandler has very reliable hands most of the time.
  3. This, Gaza, Afghanistan/Iraq, Mexico/Central America, Africa... etc... So many innocent lives falling victim to needless violence... it's really disheartening.
  4. I've generally thought that routes are about getting to a certain location at a certain time, running along a certain path. Stevie hasn't had an issue doing that, he throws out jukes, which a lot WRs do, just his are a bit more basketball like (lower body) whereas most WRs just use their shoulders. I guess we'll agree to disagree. I think he's a fantastic route runner, and has great moves to beat press coverage. Never claimed he's elite all around. I do think he's good, all around, though. Even with his mental lapses. Cheers
  5. Does she live in dorms? I bet if you enter her address, it'll work. It's at least worth a few keystrokes
  6. You could always get in contact with a friend/relative, have them sign up, and pay them for it.
  7. Looks absolutely fantastic to me.
  8. I'm eligible... so I don't think it's just a ruse to get people on the site. I think you have to be ineligible for dish service to get the digital only service. Same as in the past... just they are making it easier this time.
  9. Right, so for me it's $130 for RZC, the other stuff I couldn't care less about.
  10. $200 is fair... but RedZone costing an extra $130 when it's $5/mo as part of a cable sports package (NBA channel, etc etc) is kind of a rip.
  11. https://nflst.directv.com/DTVAPP/nflws/index.jsp Digital Sunday Ticket starting at $200. RedZone costs an extra $130
  12. Ok, this is a bit disingenuous. I agree as much as anyone that it was likely time to move on, but lets not paint him as a crappy player. Clutch? I'll give you that. Gameplans? He is usually lined up across the opposite team's best DB, so there's that. Elite quality? Yes, he's great at beating press, and route running. Peers? I'm pretty sure multiple DBs said SJ was one of the most difficult to cover. Points? This isn't fully on him... remember his QBs Is he the best WR in the game? Nope. Does he have faults? Yup. Does he have great/elite qualities? Yes. He's probably a top 15-20 WR in the game, and there's nothing wrong with that.
  13. Ignoring the whole false deadline thing and commenting on CJ alone... If we had Chan running this offense, I'd extend CJ in a heartbeat... he's a guy that makes it work. However, in Hackett's offense, which is a bit more of a power game, CJ probably isn't worth it. We'll see how this year goes, considering he was injured much of last year. Maybe Hackett will plan for him better, maybe CJ will be healthy, maybe.... etc.
  14. I think last year's defense was good in some areas, bad in some areas, and mediocre in some areas.... averaging out to... average Which is much better than worst ever, so I can't complain too much
  15. Personally, I think the new series is enough. They do a good job of catching people up, while also throwing in easter eggs for long time viewers. Some notes: The "new" era is done in "Series" instead of "Seasons" Season 1, the Eccleston era, is really goofy and corny for the first half of the season or so... Just stick with it.
  16. I'm admittedly no expert... but my thoughts are a) he seems slow... but has good footwork and technique b) at the very least competition for the spot should be a good thing.
  17. A lot of optimism in this thread
  18. I just hope his safety play was a result of him adjusting to a new position and being a natural fit, and not the result of scheme from our former DC. Same goes for a few guys on D, actually.
  19. Considering there are a handful of teams struggling to fill seats, I think expansion is not ideal. If anything, those teams need to be moved around.
  20. My expectations: - EJ does better and stays relatively healthy. Still finishes in the middle to lower rankings for QBs. Expert TBD fans call for a replacement. - OL struggles with new pieces at the beginning of the year, finishes strong - EJ and Woods continue their chemistry, but he struggles to get on the same page with Goodwin and Watkins - CJ plays better with the new OL. FJax gets less carries in favor of Brown over the course of the year, much to the dismay of fans. - Our defense slides back to mediocrity, though we improve against the run - Gilmore does not take a step to elite, but continues to play solid defense. Same with Aaron Williams. Record 6-10 (its so easy to choose that record )
  21. I still wish he was on the team, but what can you do. I also wish we still had Byrd, and a couple other former Bills. And I wish a couple current Bills were gone. I don't think there will ever be a time I'm 100% happy with the makeup of any team I root for.
  22. Subtle difference between Chan and Doug noted in the interview... I like that they practice outdoors all year around.
  23. An elected representative actually represents a population when it comes to Palestine... But in the US? "He's not my President" Kinda weird the way that works. I guess we'll agree to disagree, then.
  24. Extremists are doing that, they don't speak for the whole of Palestine. It's kinda how we went after Iraq for 9/11. Basically both sides have their extremists at this point, and the only people being hurt are innocents who'd prefer peace.
  25. Some of these I wasn't aware were spinoffs... well today is educational!
